Over the TOP Service and Food to Near Perfection

My mouth waters thinking of this restaurant even months later.

Service to be applauded. Though the table we had was small it was soon forgotten when the foods and wines started arriving. Everything was executed to near perfection.

Tastes profiles of items on the menu with clear descriptions made choosing a joy. I had a lobster in honey I had never heard nor seen in my years. I even called my brother a professionally trained chef and Graduate of Johnson and Wales, to ask his take on this creation from heaven. Truly inspired and worth the trip for this dish alone, just don't forget to ask the wine steward to pare the wine as I did, I wish I could remember his recommendation it was spot on.

Coming from some one staying at the Ritz I take this over Il Molina any day of the week.

This restaurant is in the El San Juan Hotel & Casino. The food is expensive but delicious. It is good for families or a romantic dinner. They have this water that is imported from Italy that flows down your throat like silk! The service is great, too. The waiters know not to be in your way, yet they also seem to be right there when they are needed. It is a small restaurant and has a classy atmosphere. It is located off of the main lobby of the hotel (where the main bar is). I went with my husband and one other couple. For the four of us, the meal was approximately $140.00 (without tip) but we also didn't have any alcoholic beverages. While we were there, another couple enjoyed a meal with their young daughter (around 6 years old). This restaurant is also peaceful. It is not an appropriate choice for a large party that would be getting too loud. If you are looking for a nice and relaxing, delicious meal, check out this restaurant for an enjoyable dining experience.
