French fine dining with whimsical decor and fountain views
"There are only 16 tables at Le Cirque, a spot on the Strip where you’ll feel like part of the Illuminati as you dine among casino VIPs and look out at the Bellagio fountains. This is the place to splurge in Vegas, so go ahead and commit to the $255 four-course meal. You’ll get to choose from excellent French dishes like pan seared foie gras, rabbit cooked in dijon riesling sauce, and loup de mer en papillote. If you’re weighing whether you want to spend more on one of the extras like the King crab caviar, it’s better put toward a wine pairing—it’ll save you the trouble of sifting through the 900-bottle list. Plus, you’ll have more time to find the tickets in your email for the Cirque du Soleil show straight across the casino floor." - emmy kasten, andrew ryce
"A renowned fine-dining restaurant at the Bellagio where the chef worked after relocating from Barcelona, representing a prestigious stage in his career." - Janna Karel
"A landmark French fine-dining room celebrated for classic, luxurious preparations — notably the Brittany loup de mer — and a formal, elegant dining experience." - Janna Karel
"Watch the Fountains at Bellagio dance while you dine beneath the draped satin ceiling of Le Cirque. This award-winning French restaurant is helmed by chef Dameon Evers, whose tasting menus blend traditional French cooking with exciting flavors and striking presentations. The iconic lakeside restaurant, which debuted with Bellagio in 1998, refreshes its menu seasonally, with courses like Brittany loup de mer in leek fondue, wild risotto with sauteed chanterelle mushrooms, and seared foie gras with berries and pistachio. —Janna Karel, editor, Eater Southern California/Southwest Best for: Those who intend to toast to a special occasion over Champagne and caviar." - Matthew Kang
"Located at the Bellagio, this restaurant offers a grand dining experience with jewel-toned tents and an atmosphere reminiscent of a circus big top."
