Caesars Palace in Las
Vegas seems to have it all. Guests who book their
Las Vegas accommodations at Caesars will have all they
could ever want within reach. You can try your luck
at the 129,000 plus square-foot Caesars gaming room, take
in a live show, pamper yourself at the Qua
Baths and Spa, or head out to one of the Las
Vegas golf courses where hotel guests have privileges.
Spend some down time shopping at the wealth of stores
you will find at Caesars or take time out to enjoy a dining
experience that you are sure to remember. While
Caesars Palace has sufficient choices for casual dining
options, it is the fine dining here that deserves some
exploration when deciding on Las
Vegas restaurants. If seafood is what you are
in the mood for, then you can hardly go wrong at the Caesars
808 restaurant. At the 808 restaurant, Hawaiian
fusion cuisine makes up the heart of the menu, but if
you just want a steak done right, then you can have that
too. While a bit pricy as far as Las Vegas restaurants
go, the quality will make you feel like it was certainly
worth it.
At the 808 Las Vegas, you feel almost as if you’ve
skipped out of Nevada for
a bit to experience a piece of Hawaii.
While not as relaxed as the atmosphere you will find on
the Hawaiian Islands, you can savor the rich tastes at
the 808 restaurant that you might not find close to home,
save perhaps unless you live in New
York City,
Los Angeles, San
Francisco or Chicago,
where restaurants abound. At the 808 restaurant
Las Vegas, the acclaimed chef, Jean-Marie Josselin, introduces
Hawaiian-inspired dishes that also feature hints of Japanese,
Chinese, Thai, Indian and European influences. While
the seafood appetizers and main courses will more than
meet most expectations, you can opt to try the veal, chicken,
lamb or beef entrees if you are allergic to shellfish
or are not in the mood for seafood. If you want
to keep your 808 Vegas bill on the low side, you might
opt to order an appetizer and share a dish with a friend
or with your significant other. The appetizer of
choice at the 808 restaurant Las Vegas is the signature
Deconstructed Ahi, which is likely to have you considering
an extra order to take back to the room. Aside from
the quality of the fresh fish dishes here, you can also
explore the lobster, which is sublime, to say the least.
If you are considering eating at the Caesars 808 restaurant
when choosing Las Vegas restaurants you will likely want
to make reservations for dinner. Open daily from
5 p.m. to 11 p.m., the restaurant can get quite busy.
This is especially true after 7 p.m., when you can expect
to find the place full. While the service is top-notch
at the 808 Las Vegas, you might find that if it’s
exceptionally busy, you might just order yourself a nice,
strong drink and let your cares drift away. If your
waiter is tied up between tables, you will find the perfect
chance to reminisce about the exciting day you had, and
discuss what lies ahead of you for tomorrow. Certainly,
the decor of the 808 Las Vegas restaurant should help
to relax you. The restaurant is named for the area
code for the Hawaiian Islands, and you get the impression
upon walking in the door that you have just stepped into
a nice restaurant in Maui. Soft, muted colors offer
a nice alternative to the noisy lights along the Las Vegas
strip, but you can choose one of the 10 counter seats
at the exhibition kitchen if you are up for some excitement.
Chefs-in-training might learn something from a menu that
comes from the imagination of a head chef who was both
born and raised in France.
Just remember to save some room for desert when you
come to the 808 restaurant Las Vegas, because the decadent
desert menu has an array of sumptuous selections, such
as the chocolate and macadamia nut crunch bars that are
served with lemon grass ice cream. Chances are you
haven’t tried that yet. If you can’t
get reservations at the 808 Las Vegas, you might consider
exploring the menu at the Caesars
Guy Savoy restaurant, which is one of the more notable
upscale Las Vegas restaurants. Bon appétite!
