What an experience !!! My date and I were absolutely blown away by every course! Not to mention the the five star service by Katherine and Sunday! This restaurant goes above and beyond to make sure you have a memorable experience. The food was phenomenal(kudos to the chef) and the wine pairings by both our servers was unforgettable and absolutely PERFECT. We WILL be back.

The food was amazing(we had the six-course meal), the view are stunning, and the service was absolutely perfect. I don’t have a single thing to criticise. Hands down my favourite French restaurant in Vegas.

Best restaurant experience I have ever had. I have never been more pampered than at the mandarin oriental hotel and I am extremely grateful to have been treated with such class and elegance. Kobe beef was unreal

This place isn’t cheap but if you want to impress your date and have a few bucks to spare then make a reservation for dinner or drinks. The food & the views are amazing and the service is top notch. The drinks menu is pretty amazing too. I had the Sea bass dinner while my girlfriend opted for the Tasting menu. She did not complain about her choice. She loved it!

The setting of the restaurant was really pretty and relaxing. However, for the price I was paying for, I expected a lot more manners from the servers and that did not meet my expectations at all. In fact, I was pretty annoyed by the servers during the meal. The food were all made to detail, but the taste was just alright. It definitely did not meet up to my expectations and the price I paid for.

Wish I had ordered more. This was my second time there and the group I was with only ordered main courses which left me a bit disappointed. Nevertheless I had the squab and foie gras which was amazing. I can’t wait to go back to try the seasonal chef’s menu.

Couldn’t have been happier with this meal. The dining room is Gorgeous with a great view. Service was excellent, not as amazing as Guy Savoy but this place is not nearly as expensive so I felt that the level of service was appropriate — 1 server and 1 assistant. Every amuse Bouche or similar tastes came in multiples so there was quite an array of tastes to sample. Bread and butter was great, incredibly rich French butter. A5 steak was so amazing, fatty and tender and perfect. French sea bass perfectly prepared. I highly recommend and can’t wait to return. There is only 1 woman server, she is québécois and was terrific, ask for her!

4.5 stars. Very enjoyable dinner with excellent food and a great view. Short of a 5th star because I wasn’t ‘wowed’ as was expected.

Amazing food. Amazing service. Amazing atmosphere. Amazing view. I had the best dining experience at Twist. Everything from the food to the service was definitely top notch. I can not get over how amazing the view was, which was looking over the whole strip. The restaurant was kind enough to give us a complimentary light dishes while we wait for our food. We decided to get the 6 course pre fix menu and everything that was had was delicious.

Terrible thanksgiving meal. Canapés were bland and dull. Nothing delicious during entire meal. Turkey breast was inedible. Tasted like nothing… watery. Sides were ridiculous in taste and presentation. Desserts were contrived and none of the flavored worked together. So disappointed for Thanksgiving. They tried to make up for it by charging for one meal but it ruined the eve.

Upscale French food done to perfection. We tried both the regular taster menu and the vegetarian taster menus, and both are awesome. You’ll get showered in amuse bouches and not leave hungry. Each bite is super tasty and everything was cooked to perfection. While this is on the pricier side, it’s the best meals I’ve had anywhere short of Tijuana street tacos. The joint is super nice, so dress accordingly. The staff is very friendly, and one of them took the time to write us a list of his local Las Vegas restaurants. Just a joy to go here. We’ll be back.

By far the best dinner I have had in Vegas in over the last 25 years! The hotel is my new favorite as well.

Absolutely beautiful restaurant with a view to the strip. High ceilings with classy decorations, some old school french music playing in the mix. Love it! Our bartender«Jonathan» makes a killer Martini and super friendly! Our table by the window was perfect and intimate. Our waitress and host«Catherine» was professional, present, and carried a warm sense of humor. We decided to order the tasting menu, with a addition of a butter poached lobster with beurre blanc. The the entire two hours of tasting were seamless service, delicious food and superb service from the entire staff! Definitely an experience to share with someone special!

This was my first niche restaurant experience and I have to admit the deserts and steak were the best I’ve ever tried. We’ve ordered lavish six course menu, but wasn’t impressed with other two. Great location/design and hotel !!!

Enjoyed dining at Twist Saturday night. Started with a glass of champagne looking down on the Strip from windows. Life is good. I did the 4 course tasting menu and my BF did a la carte.(He picked oysters and halibut) Everything from foie gras, filet to four kinds of sweets was beautifully presented and tasted wonderful. One thing I noticed: I kept hearing classic rock there, which is unusual for a high-end French restaurant. Out of curiosity I asked why they were playing such music and their answer was«we play what’s on Pierre’s phone.» A ha! Mystery solved! I’m not giving five stars because… well, I didn’t receive the signed menu like other reviewers did. Maybe they stopped doing it?

Huge shout out to the maître d who graciously allowed us to bring our baby here for dinner. We had not been aware of the no children under 14 policy, but they made an exception in our case and we had a lovely meal here. We were banished to the far side of the restaurant, but that’s ok :)(Little one did well and loved the mashed potatoes and soup!) I don’t really have much to add — this was one of my favorite dining experiences in Vegas. Amazing view and bathrooms in addition to gracious service and delicious food. They handled the varied menu ordering(I had a 5 course prix fixe whereas my husband ordered a la carte) well. I’m not vegetarian but the vegetarian prix fixe was truly delicious. I like that flat or sparkling water is included in the meal; I find Vegas’ water has a funny taste so I like that this factor is eliminated here. Highlights: — soup — 4 item dessert menu I will definitely return… But need to wait another 13 years unless we get a babysitter!

Finally getting the opportunity to dine at Twist, I couldn’t resist the tasting menu. The restaurant is located inside the Mandarin Oriental and every seat includes dazzling views of the strip. Without going over each course in detail, I will say every bite was absolutely delicious and I can’t think of a better fine dining experience that I have had in the last few years. It was gluttonous, divine and my dining companions left with bright smiles on our faces and full stomachs. Before we left, we each received a personalized signed menu from the evening which was a treat. Service was impeccable, as expected, and I can’t think of one thing about the meal wasn’t sheer perfection. The perfect way to spend three hours on a Saturday night in Vegas.

Three of us met at 7PM for dinner. Michael U had received notice from one of the employees at Twist that Chef Gagnaire would be in Las Vegas for a range of dates. It was because of this we booked at this time. The restaurant, on the 23rd floor of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in City Center, is elegant and the view is very good. The three of us ended up getting a modified version of the grand tasting menu. We were brought three rolls each and then the meal began. First up was an amuse-blouche of two small bites with the server suggesting the correct order to eat the two. Course one was sea urchin mousseline with caviar. There was gelée of bonito and grilled onion infusion and olive oil infused salsify spaghettini. It was recommended that we mix the sea urchin with the spaghettini for the greatest flavor. An excellent dish and an auspicious start for the evening. Course two was lobster fricassee with kaffir lime and enoki mushrooms, baby carrot stew and sweet wine and green tea butter and the dish was topped with some edible flowers. The lobster was simply superb! Course three was modified by us. We added an extra course at an extra charge. It was carnaroli risotto with artichokes and pine nuts. It was topped with some micro greens and a LOT of shaved truffles. What a grand melding of flavors with the truffles and risotto and the pine nuts added a texture that made this dish another winner. Next was time for a palate cleanser of some sorbet to ready us for the foie gras coming next. Course four was the roasted foie gras with coffee and chestnut velouté, prunes and porcini. More truffles were shaved on this dish and it was absolutely sublime. The sauce was so rich and the mushrooms with the foie were the tops! Course five was another divergence on our part. We asked if we could sub proteins and we could. Instead of the American Wagyu beef, I got Muscovy duck. It ha d a green pepper sauce and caramelized pear and pine nuts. The duck was accompanied by whisky jus eggplant cannelloni with duck confit. Another winner, but I don’t think I need to keep stating that. A very good switch. Course six was a series of desserts. One of them we added à la carte – the mille-feuille with praline cream, cassis compote and blackberry sorbet. We each took a third of this shared dessert but only one(me) slopped on the nice white linen. The grand dessert course consists of three items: 1) Cassis: sorbet, wurtz, marmalade and cane sugar and pink pepper opaline; 2) Honey orange gelée, shortbread, mango and passion fruit topped with fromage blanc ice cream; 3) Chocolate gâteau with golden raisins and Amarena cherries. A suggestion was made in what order we should eat the desserts to get the fullest flavor profiles and it was a grand suggestion. The dessert were rich, full of exceptional flavors, and very satisfying. My favorite was the sorbet with grape halves that had been frozen and were around the sorbet. A great concept. Wait, we’re not done yet. Next we were brought a plate of three lemon meringue bites that had lemon filling between the two sections of meringue. Each meringue bite was accompanied by three blueberries on an edible toothpick. We’re still not done – dessert six was brought for the three of us to share. It was Gagnaire’s Tanzanian chocolate parfait with coffee granité and caramelized hazelnuts. This was rich, smooth, and a perfect chocolaty end to this grand tasting meal. Service was outstanding as you would expect from Twist. Chef Gagnaire came from the kitchen for a brief hello and the Chef de Cuisine, Ryuki Kawasaki, also came out and chatted with us for a short time and talked about his upcoming move to Bangkok, Thailand. Before leaving, we each received a signed menu from both chefs with the date. A keepsake for sure! We also got a small package of two biscotti with the Twist logo to take with us. Our jackets were waiting for us at the host’s stand and we were helped on with them. I can’t say too many good words about this wonderful meal. Three hours of good food, good company, and wonderful surroundings. This is as good as it gets and a reason why this was my second visit but not my last!

Décor, ambiance, and service were all spot on to be a michelin rated restaurant. Unfortunately, the food did not match our taste. To be honest, my favorite part of my meal was the cranberry bread, which i asked for 4 pieces of. Our five course menu included: SEAURCHINMOUSSELINEWITHCAVIAR Gelée of Bonito and grilled Onion Infusion Olive Oil seasoned Salsify Spaghettini LOBSTERFRICASSEWITHKAFFIRLIMEANDENOKI Baby Carrots Stew Sweet Wine and Green Tea Butter ROASTEDFOIEGRAS Coffee and Chestnut Velouté, Prune and Porcini PEPPEREDAMERICANWAGYUBEEF Piquillos purée and diced Turnip Sauce Violine Dauphine Potato and Speck Ham The best dish was the roasted Foie gras. The other dishes had a strong herb flavors that we did not really care for. I wished i could have loved the food, as everything else was perfect. I absolutely love the Mandarin Oriental, also.

Now can I say BRAVO? This was one of the best meals we had in Vegas. Originally we were planning on going to Picasso at the Bellagio. However, our concierge at the Aria recommended Twist at the Mandarin Oriental. I am happy that he did. It was magnificent! First of all we had to take the elevator to the 24th(I think) floor. From there we were seated against the window where we had a mesmeric view of the strip. Now onto the food: JAPANESESEABREAMMEUNIERE — 4.5 Stars Semi-salted Fillet served with sautéed Squid, Chives Broccoli Velouté & Florets. The fish was cooked perfectly. The dish was just done right. The calamari was succulent. The salt level was perfect. SEAREDMEXICANDIAMONDBLUESHRIMP — 4 Stars Shellfish Jus, Olive Oil, Meyer Lemon Paste emulsion, Italian Mustard Fruits, Jumbo Green Asparagus, Pomegranate. The shrimp was really hearty in this dish. It was so fresh, definitely not like the previously frozen kind from Costco. The lemon paste made the shrimp«pop» and the asparagus and pomegranate worked as nice compliments in the background. FOIEGRAS&CHANTERELLESOUP — 5 Stars Roasted Foie Gras, Chanterelles & Seasonal Green Vegetables, Foie Gras Ice Cream, Baby Artichoke, Cured Ham & Dundee-Pinky. Damn this was so good. I didn’t know soup could taste so great. The broth was thick and creamy with a foie gras flavor. The mushrooms and vegetables were the perfect ingredients to put into this soup. It had a nice bite to it and was not overcooked. TAJIMAWAGYUBEEFFROMLINDSAYFARM, OREGON — 4 Stars Roasted Fillet Mignon finished with fresh Herbs Butter Arugula Purée & Tomme de Savoie Cheese, Stuffed Turnip, Italian Summer Truffle. This steak was nice. It was tender and moist. I wish it would have been bigger, lol. Anyway, a nice twist on steak with the herb butter. Peach & Apricot Compote with Rosemary, Pistachio Sugar Leaf & Orange Almond Cream — 4 Stars — A nice dessert, the flavors worked well. And I liked the crispy top that was kind of like a brittle. Declination of Raspberries — 3 Stars — Not that great so I will not write anything. Cherry Soup, Prune Cream & Cassis Sorbet, Meringue — 5 Stars — This was the best dessert. The cherries were tart and the flavors burst in my mouth. Black Chocolate Ganache, Milk Caramel Ball, Baileys & Coffee Granite — 4 Stars — Did I say that this meal came with a gang of desserts? The chocolate and coffee was a nice way to cool off our palettes from our the sweet and tart flavors. This dessert was creamy and smooth. Biscuit Moelleux & Green Tea Ice Cream, Sweet Wine Gelée — 4.5 Stars — This is a nice play of green tea. It was sweet ut not overly sweet. The dish was subtle with some sweet flavors masked by the creaminess of the green tea. This was a memorable dinner. It was the best French Food we had on this trip. The elegance of the restaurant, to the service, to the quality and flavors of the food made this a must go or must try restaurant.
