Mon Ami Gabi

This French brasserie, in the Paris, was recommended to me by a couple of self-dubbed “Vegas haters,” who admitted they loathed the city’s over-the-top vibe but found the ambience and food authentic at Mon Ami Gabi. Indeed with its red leather banquette seating and hearty serving of steak-frites, the restaurant does remind of Paris. Instead of a bread basket each table gets a warm demi-baguette. The wine list is lovely and decently priced, which is not always a given in Sin City. The patio tables have excellent views of the dancing fountains of the Bellagio across the street.
