"An Art Deco jewel box in deep purples and black by Pierre‑Yves Rochon frames one of the most exquisite—and expensive—meals you’ll ever have, where Le Caviar Imperial (osetra over crustacean gelée) cues a parade of poetic French courses. I go all in on the four‑course, 12‑plate tasting (plus breads, desserts, mignardises) and let the sommelier orchestrate pairings for each course." - Andrea Bennett
"The restaurant was represented at the 2025 James Beard Awards by Eleazar Villanueva, a Best Chef: Southwest finalist, and was also one of the Las Vegas establishments where Kyurim “Q” Lee and Jin Caldwell worked extensively before they opened their award-winning bakery in Portland." - Matthew Kang
"Diners may sit next to Chuck Norris, one of the celebrity photos that line the opulent space at the grand Joël Robuchon that feels like a cross between the inside of a Faberge egg and Marie Antoinette’s boudoir. The exquisitely crafted fare from Robuchon includes the multi-course degustation menu that is part French grandiosity, part Asian refinement. Truffled langoustine ravioli in a foie gras sauce, a semi-soft boiled egg on a spinach puree, and Maine lobster in a thinly sliced turnip join roving bread, butter, and mignardises carts. Chef Eleazar Villanueva is a finalist for the James Beard Award for Best Chef: Southwest this year, in part due to his spectacular tight-rope act of preserving the Robachon’s recipes exactly while still innovating — delivering new dishes to tables that maintain the late chef’s ethos even when dabbling in new flavors. —Janna Karel, editor, Eater Southern California/Southwest Know before you go: Selections from both the bread and dessert cart number in the dozens. And there is no limit to how many of each you may select." - Matthew Kang
"This Las Vegas fine-dining establishment’s chef, Eleazar Villanueva, was named a 2025 James Beard Foundation finalist for Best Chef: Southwest, marking a high-profile nod from one of the country’s most prestigious culinary awards. The winners will be announced June 16 at the Lyric Opera of Chicago." - Rebecca Roland
"Famously one of the most expensive restaurants on the Strip, Joël Robuchon’s three Michelin stars shine through in a decadent dining room and the neighboring L’Atelier. The Le Caviar Impérial is a crowning glory, with Ossetra caviar resting on a formed bed of crab in a crustacean gelée and hand-dotted with cauliflower purée. Ask for a wine pairing to capitalize on another Joël Robuchon specialty." - Jennifer Smith
