Twist by Pierre Gagnaire Top French gourmand tops Mandarin Oriental with eatery
-
The Scene:
In terms of Las Vegas penthouse dining, 3-star Michelin chef Pierre Gagnaire is right up there with the best of them from his 23rd floor dining room inside the Mandarin Oriental at City Center. Floor-to-ceiling windows surround the two-story dining room with its subtle bulb-shaped pendant lights and remarkably modern decor with intimate bar and private dining room. Details like jacket-required and limited dinner-only opening times equate to a thoroughly molecular French dining experience that’s one of the toughest reservations in the city.
