What it's like at L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon Las Vegas?

Seated at the bar it gives you a sense of relaxed elegance. Casual luxury, like JFK on a sailboat, only he's French and has lost the accent.

The restaurant is small and the bar seating allows you to cultivate a quick relationship with your server. If you are on one of the tables you could feel a bit left out. Watching the food preparation is soothing as each and every person behind the counter works to meticulously prepare each masterpiece.

While the bar seating cannot be considered romantic I find that sitting right beside your date you have the opportunity to whisper into their ear. You might be addressing the exhilarating responses you get from the food, the energy in the restaurant or the plans for the evening.

This restaurant is classy, elegant and has the casual feel that helps when it comes to creating the romantic feel.

Take a look at some pictures of one of the best meals of my life at L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon in Las Vegas

• Gazpacho - the flavors are what you would expect when combining the great flavors of ...I passed out, it's so good, sorry, feel the peppery spice, glorious.
• L'Aubergine - Eggplant Caviar and crunchy young vegetables. You might not normally order this but you need to give the food a chance if you truly want to experience L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon.
• Halibut seared with curry oil fennel cream - Sauces, the French know sauces and the curry oil, fennel creme will dispel any false ideas you may have about curry.

Dessert at L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon:
Le Flan - Caramel Flan - I usually stay away from Flan because the lack of consistency does a number on my need for texture in my food. However, After a few swallows the consistency is a bit watery but the sugary greatness will make you forget the liquid and the flavors will delight your palate.

Le Crumble - Berry crumble - A little light fare right to accent your dinner. The fruit combined with the crumble is very pleasing.

The wine list at L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon is impressive so going the way of the bottle is a good choice if not a bit expensive. Wine by the glass, while there is a limited selection, they are very good. Need help selecting; ask the server, he probably has sampled each on more than one occasion.
