Feel French and eat French food inside Michael Mina’s gorgeous, Parisian-designed Bardot Brasserie restaurant. Dishes here are rich and full-bodied, definitely for the adventurous eater. Start with escargot en croute—perfectly cooked, covered in absinthe butter and enveloped in puff pastry; or opt for the popular prime steak tartare, USDA prime filet topped with egg yolk and sauce verte and served with potato chips.

Entrées include the French classic steak frites, and guests can choose from cuts like filet mignon, flat iron and a double-cut ribeye. Juicy and tender poulet roti (roasted chicken) is served with a mushroom bread pudding, and the loup de mer Basquaise (roasted sea bass) gets a spicy kick from a chorizo broth. Vegetarians can delight in the gnocchi Parisienne, perfectly cooked pasta dumplings blanketed in acorn squash, pomegranate and sage. A must-order side dish is the macaroni and mimolette gratinée.

End the meal with another French-fare classic, the vanilla crème brûlée, made with Madagascar vanilla bean and served with fresh raspberries. Bon appetit!
