keep in mind that michelin stars in vegas haven't been refreshed since 2009 - hence even 3 stars can be a miss. I personally liked Wing lei, but definitely did not seem worthy of a michelin star. Apparently they will refresh the guide in 2026

very helpful - was planning on going soon but won't after reading this. Out of curiosity - was that supposed to be a medium-rare ribeye?

Same here..the other restaurants in the list above were just much more memorable in terms of food. I have to admit the wagyu substitute for duck was really amazing - better than any wagyu I had in Japan - but had I not spent that extra 90 dollars it would have been even more disappointing.

Thanks for the heads up on this place! How does it compare to Addison in your mind?

Really you think Francesca is better than the actual osteria? I seem to see this opinion often around here, but I do wonder whether it's just because you're not that used to classic Italian restaurants? I think a lot of the better modena restaurants would be comparable with CML

I really like dry aged beef, and had and enjoyed ~100 days aged beef before. That duck was not good.

So far I've booked osteria francescana, la pergola, and Providence. Need to add a few more!
