Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in The Orleans Hotel & Casino

The staff was super friendly and engaging. The restaurant itself was very clean and tables well spaced and views from most, including into the kitchen! Staff recommendations were spot on and while we never felt rushed, we were never waiting for anything; a drink, food or the bill. Super experience and would absolutely return.

When you make reservations, you should not have to stand in line for 15 minutes to wait and be seated.

There are many reasons to LOVE this restaurant. Let's start with the ambiance. Q-U-I-E-T! It's so nice to have a place to eat great food and also be able to have a conversation. The booths are very roomy and comfortable. The service is great and attentive and give you honest opinions. And the walnut bread is superior. LOL The food is top notch. We frequent a lot of very high-end restaurants while we are in Las Vegas. We ALWAYS go to Alder and Birch. WHY? The steaks are so tender and juicy, the lobster is HUGE and the crab is very unique in that you do NOT have to work to get the bites out of the shell. Legs ONLY!! No need to get your hands messed up. And where else can you get Filet Mignon AND 8-10 oz lobster TAIL for $75! It is truly amazing. And YES the lobsters are really that big!! Yeah, I know a lot of you want to go to the "famous name" restaurants but you are really really missing out if you haven't tried Alder and Birch. Trish

We arrived for our 6:30 pm reservation early and were seated on the outdoor patio (the weather was warmer than usual for December 20th) by our friendly hostess. The restaurant was busy and our table had a fabulous view of the Bellagio water show. We started with the baquette (it was warm from the oven 😋) and the oysters were tasty (served with a cocktail/horse radish sauce and vinegar/garlic sauce). We ordered 2 different steak frites, one with the peppercorn sauce (it was delicious) and the other with bernaise sauce, which also was delicious 😋. I had the cote du rhone wine 🍷 which paired perfectly with everything. Our server Raul was professional, polite, knowledgeable with the menu and beverage list. We had a lovely evening with our adult children, the food and drinks were amazing, the service was spectacular, the ambiance was bumping and the view was fantastic! I definitely recommend Mon Ami Gabi and will come back on my next visit to Las Vegas! Thank you Thank you Thank you 💕🙏

I’m still in disbelief that somehow I secured a reservation from a random cancellation via OpenTable. I simply chose some dates that if I were able to get reservations, I could actually fly to Vegas 🎰 Tip: surprisingly, reservation cancellations do come up, but you have to have notifications set on OpenTable app because these are grabbed in a split second. I had 8:45pm reservations. I got there at 8pm but had to wait for my friend who lives in Vegas. They held my booth, and my request for Frank Sinatra’s old table. It was so cool, honestly, that if the food sucked, I was still okay with it. We decided to split an 8oz filet and then get their chicken artichoke dish to also split. We got a side of sherry-cream mushrooms, too. All was fantastic!! Actually better than fantastic. The steak seasoning was so good I bought tins to bring home to my daughter-in-laws. Started with escargot. My friend had never had the little snails. Only 6 come on the plate, so keep that in mind. Delicious, but only 6. Not rubbery, but cooked to a tender and flavorful creation. The filet was exceptional! Maybe the best I've ever had. Salted & seasoned to perfection and cooked precisely as ordered. Incredible! The chicken meal was creatively delicious. I don't know how they made this chicken so lite, juicy and tender, but they did! It came with deep-fried raviolis. I did not try them but my friend devoured the 6 or so on the plate. Overall, this exceeded all of my expectations! My friend took leftovers to her hubby. The ambiance was the charm of the “Olden Golden Days.” The exterior looks deceiving and that area seems a bit sketchy. We actually left around 11:30p. They had closed but still had many diners, so they don't rush you out. The service was top-notch, so thank you to our server James. And a huge merci beaucoup to the entire team. My 1/2 of the bill (including the two tins of seasoning at $16 each) was $120. (excluded tip). So worth every penny! Can't wait to return!
