Review by Trip advisor
I have been traveling to Vegas for over 10 years and, like many, I end up at the restaurants on the strip. Merely because it’s convenient for the group I am with and/or the majority of the people I am with are not foodies. Why the heck should we go off strip?
This time my wife and I were the only two people on the trip and I was going to eat the best (read: NOT most expensive) regardless if it was on or off strip. Pamplemousse was our favorite.
Located along a stretch of road with tacky strip centers and fast food Pamplemousse actually looks like a strip club (or something) from the outside. Tacky pink sign and drab building does not prepare you for the quality of food.
The interior is a bit dated but fits in fine in Las Vegas. The food and the service shine here….
First of all dont let the “French” cuisine deter you. The service was very enthusiastic but appropriate to Las Vegas. This place has history and luckily the food quality and taste is the foundation to the entire experience.
The Crudites Basket was extremely fresh and it was complimentary so we may not have ordered it otherwise. The vegetables were raw, simple but elegantly presented. Natrual flavor shining through. Honestly, we just about filled up on this. The vinegarette was obviously home made and was perfect for dipping the veggies.
The French Onion Soup was promised to be the best I’ve had and – I am a lover of french onion soup and quite the critic – it was the best I’ve had. Yes, one can make a pretty bad (usually bland) french onion soup and this restaurant delivers. Deep rich broth with bronze, carmelized onions and crusty bread. The cheese was perfectly melted and just browned and crusty. My wife couldnt stop “trying” it. My wife had a decent appetizer with goat cheese and it was tasty.
My wife had a main course of sea scallops. She typically doesnt order scallops because she doesnt love them like other foods. However, the waiter went on and on about them and convinced her to order them and we’re glad she did. Outstanding in their preparation and seared to perfection, we both loved that dish.
I had the duck upon high recomendation and it was good. I dont love duck like most so I wasnt blown away.
The dessert – Chocolate Volcano – was outstanding. It was highly recomended and must be ordered as you order your meal because it takes that long to prepare and cook. TGI Friday’s, Chili’s and the like have made a dessert like this pedestrian but Pamplemousse knocks this one out of the park.
