"Opened in Las Vegas at the Paris casino as the proprietor’s first Vegas restaurant, this 194-seat spot is designed to evoke her 1920s-era country farmhouse in Bedford, New York. The dining room is a detailed replica — wood-paneled seating, minimalist sconces, floral displays, bird-themed art, an open kitchen with marble counters and a wall of copper pans — plus a patio under the casino’s faux blue-cloud sky, creating a polished, slightly Richie-Rich Vegas farmhouse vibe. The menu is a French-leaning, home-style repertoire the owner says she serves to family and friends and is billed as using local ingredients: starters include a classic Niçoise, oysters Rockefeller with Pernod cream, and a jumbo shrimp cocktail; mains range from a burger with tomato jam and caramelized onions to brown-buttered “Big Martha” pierogis, with tableside-carved whole roast chicken and a bone-in rib eye also on offer. A theatrical tableside potato-smashing service tops baked potatoes with crème fraîche, chives, bacon lardons or an optional one-ounce Golden Osetra caviar for $115.95. Desserts highlight an upside-down lemon meringue pie with whipped cream, a milk chocolate tart with Sicilian pistachios, and classic crème brûlée, while cocktails are themed after the owner (including a Martha-tini, two Martha-rita variations, and a Perfect Manhattan) and the wine list features her California Chardonnay from 19 Crimes. Overall, the restaurant favors comfortable, performance-forward Vegas hospitality over cutting-edge trends and will likely appeal to devotees of the lifestyle icon." - ByAli Francis
