Which restaurant at the Venetian is better?
Here are your choices:
Valentino Postrio Pinot Brasserie Bouchon AquaKnox. Pls respond if you've eaten at any of them, with your opinion. I have one open night left to book, and it will be one of those 5.

Re: Which restaurant at the Venetian is better?
Postrio is a fun place for lunch, but I would not say that it is anything all that great, and I doubt I'd make it a "last dinner." I also wouldn't imagine it'd be a great dinner spot considering the location within the "Shoppes" (which actually is part of what makes it a good lunch place, in my opinion).
Bouchon is quite fun and I really enjoy French Bistro food. It is obviously not going to be quite on par with Keller's mainstay places, but it will be good certainly. It's a fun place for groups, I think, with the only real downside being that it's in a pretty odd location that's pretty far removed from the excitement.

I've only been to Bouchon but it's the only one I've ever had any interest in going to. The only expensive restaurant in Vegas that I'd go to today would be the Atelier de Joel Robuchon.

Valentino has the highest rating on Gayot, but it's only a 16/20. That's very good, but it's not the stratosphere rating that some Vegas restaurants hit.

[/ QUOTE ] both Bouchon and Pinot are nice - but still relatively casual compared to Valentino. I prefer Bouchon because it's a fantastic French Bistro just like you would go to in Paris. Great food, great atmosphere, fun and inviting...Pinot is very nice and quite good, but there's nothing really that different about it.

Naj:
Been to Valentino, Pinot, and Aquaknox. I rate Valentino tops. Pinot was pretty good, but not great. Aquaknox was a cool place with good ambiance/food, but about half of my party (15-20 people total) got food poisoning, so that's a definite strike.
