So glad to hea r abotu Fleur de Lys!! I will call them today to make reservations. Also decided to try Sage as well. Thanks so much for this report.

Thanks. We have been to Picasso and while it was good, I didn't think it was anything special. Glad to hear the great review of Alex.

Thanks for my responses to my earlier post. I think this is our schedule of selections. What do you think? Anything I should change? We are staying at the Wynn but I didn't want to limit eating only there.

Wednesday- we are seeing Ka at MGM so thought we would eat at Craftsteak after the show.

Thursday- Alex

Friday- we are seeing Love showing at the Mirage. Thought we would head to Sinatra at Encore for post show meal.

Saturday- Sage at Aria.

How does this size up? I went round and round. Rao, B&B and Circo were previously on my list. We are a group of 4 in our 40's who like great food and wine.

Thanks.

PS No Joel Rubuchon or L'Atelier for us. I think Alex will be enough in that kind of category.

Thanks for the reply. By different hotels, I meant that we would like to go to other hotels, not just the Wynn. We have been to Picasso previously. Joel Rubuchon and Guy Savoy may be a bit much in addition to Alex. How is Rao or B&B?

I already have reservations for Alex. We will be there over Labor Day weekend. I had hoped to eat at Fleur de Lys but just read they are closing. We will be a party of 4, who are foodies and like great wine, Would like to go to different hotel restaurants. Staying at the Wynn. Where would you go? I am on information overload. Looking for a great meal for the other 3 nights we are there. Thanks in advance

Thanks so much. Love the idea for drinks expecially after the win.

As soon as I wrote where my allegiance was, I should have known I would get some good UT ribbing. I am hoping for a good game. Two great teams- all the makings for true championship game and a great time in LA/Pasadena. Thanks for also recommending Water Grill. I am waiting for my group's voting to come in. I am the planner in the grooup but need for a majority to agree. Roll Tide.

We are coming from Alabama (Birmingham) Right now my group is leaning towards Cicada and water Grille. I liked Church and State but as is the norm with a group it did not appeal to everyone. Don't really want mexican. I also like Patina. Jackets is fine for the men. We are mostly a wine drinking crowd.

Wow- thanks for all the suggestions. I will check these out.

Staying at the Biltmore. We will not have a car. Thought we would rely on cabs. Any type of food. Looking for a fine dining experience but not over the top expensive. Thanks.

We will be in town for the National Championship game next week. We are staying downtown and would like to have a nice meal in the downtown area. What do you suggest?
