I couldn't disagree more. I can't vouch for any other meal, but my wife and I had breakfast at Bouchon. It was wonderful, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it. The food was great. Also, we sat at an outdoor table, which overlooks some fountains and gardens. It was very romantic, and my wife loved it. We still talk about how much we enjoyed that meal, and it's been two years since we had it.

I haven't had a bad meal anywhere at the Venetian. The Cafe has a good cheesburger with spare ribs on it. Zefferinos is good. The Mexican Cantina by the water has good food and Margaritas and the Chinese place by the entrance to the gondola rides is good also.

I thought the Mexican place was very bland.

My meal at Bouchon was FANTASTIC. And, they have SQN (not on the wine list, but ask for it)

are you [censored] me, that place was completely average on all accounts,, you have thomas keller supposedly behind the joint, i got mediocre oysters, great pate, and the 4 of us ordered wine, vodka, and one nit ordered chimay, but for their main course, good god let down on all levels, steak smothered in the onions was gross, the girl who ordered the fish hated it, you have paper table clothes, its honestly a joke with kellers name on it.

if your gonna accept mediocraty fine, if your expecting the name behind the french laundry, well then your gonna be SORELY dissapointed.

breakfast or dinner at Bouchon. Dinner at Delmonico's. Valentino's was also pretty good.

Spend 20 minutes on travel time (both ways) and go to Nobu. Can't be beat.

We've been to Matsuhisa on La Cienaga, is Nobu's much different or better?

Matsuhisa on La Cienega is one of my favorites. Nobu in Vegas has better atmosphere and people watching- not as closely packed together as Matsuhisa. Fish quality is similar, so excellent, but I personally prefer the menu at Nobu, as it has many interesting, inventive dishes that Matsuhisa does not.
