Default Restaruant Recommendation for Vegas

Going to Vegas tomorrow on business. A friend of mine who's a foody recommended:

L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon
Bouchon by Thomas Keller

But I get the feeling these aren't exactly inexpensive places . . .

Looking for moderate price. Say around $25/entree.

Prime is hands down the best restaurant in vegas, #2 on zagat and #1 in my heart. Expect about a $170 bill if you're not drinking. It sucks but good luck finding a sit down restaurant in vegas for that money, they're all sorta over priced. You either pay a little more and get a dining experience( like the patios at prime or top of the world) or you over pay cause of its location.

Yama sushi is a great AYCE joint off strip about 2 miles down flamingo. $20 a person.

Buffet of buffets is good $44 per person for a 24 hour pass to 6 different buffets, sprice market is the best(even better then caesars IMO) ask to be seated with javier, 5 star restaurant server you'll be pleased to actually tip.

Olives at bellagio is a moderatly priced place i guess. All the spots at the cosmo are good. Luxor steak house is pretty decent for a lower priced option.

My opinion is eat at prime and ask for patio seating and make sure you get it. The view of the fountains while eating is a must see and best carpacio and filet mignon i've ever eaten and the wait staff is always perfect.

Thanks! Now I have lots of options.

I asked my pal and the French places are about $50 per head without drinking. Keller is the only American to ever receive multiple 3 Michelin star awards for different restaurants. While this isn't one of them, at $50, sounds pretty reasonable.

Thats about what you're looking at for prime. I cant stress enough how much you should eat there. 10oz filet is $58, truffled mash potatoes are amazing, with shredded truffles. Carpacio is superb as well, $24 for that. The seared ahi tune was great too.

Damn just talking about it makes me want to do a trip just for the restaurant.

It was fine, just nothing special. I've certainly had far worse buffets!

I think for the price it should be better. Not what everyone is raving about, should have let me know. I could have have got you a reservation at Prime.
