Mon Ami Gabi

Just thought that I would let you know that I was there last week and the food was fantastic. Hubby had the Asparagus soup with the salmon entree and I had the steak with the berbaise sauce. Three drinks and the total bill was around 95.00. We arrived early for our reservation hoping for a patio table. It was very hottt. For all of the people who say that you can see the fountains from here I don%26#39;t know where you are sitting all I could see was the street a few trees and mayb e some water through the trees. Don%26#39;t go here looking for a view of the fountains cause it ain%26#39;t gonna happen. The food is great thougn

I ate there on my last trip for the first time-I wanted to see what everyone was raving about. No one restaurant is going to please everyone and I have a different opinion of it -sorry, everyone. I thought the food was good but not exceptional. I waited for patio seating. This is my take on it- half of humanity is walking inches away from you(I was seated by the railing) -many of them staring up at you; you have strip traffic (and all that entails) not far away; you are listening to loud people, motocycles, etc. while you eat; 6 times while eating dinner I could hear sirens wailing; I couldn%26#39;t see the fountains. I like to eat outdoors but I didn%26#39;t consider this a great patio dining experience. Unless I am with someone who wants to eat there, I doubt if I will be going back anytime soon.

Glad to hear ypu enjoyed your recent visit to M A G Jack, we have reservations for next Friday evening. We were there twice in April and were seated on the patio, with heaters!! Won%26#39;t be needing them this time I%26#39;m sure! We had a good view of the fountains, I find it strange no-one else has! Yes it is noisier outside rather than in, all the same, we loved it there.

We%26#39;ve been to MAG many times, always sit on the patio, can always see the fountains. Not sure why or how you couldn%26#39;t.

I am not much of a MAG fan either. MAG is more about ambience rather than the food. It is a steakhouse and the steaks are small and nowhere near as good as the most other steakhouses in town.

One of the few times I kind of disagree with Vegashomeboy; although I guess they call themselves a ';Fench Steakhouse'; I personally never thought of MAG as such; particuarly since I live in Chicago (home of the original MAG) and have never had the Steak there either. MAG does not fit my image of a steakhouse; therefore, I think to compare it to other ';Steakhouses'; is a little misguided; even if literally accurate (again, MAG classifies itself as a French Steakhouse)

The sandwiches, non-steak entres (mussels, salmon, shrimp, scallops, crepes)and wine list make MAG a good destination and I have always found the food quality to be as fine as the ambiance; as well as the view of the fountains from the patio. Our service has always been good too.

Have read commentary from others who have enjoyed the Steak, so maybe beauty is in the eye of the beholder; maybe one day I will try one.

Oh...and if you ARE looking for a good Steak at a Steakhouse, Vegashomeboy%26#39;s got that pegged. If you can get over the fact that it%26#39;s at CIRCUS CIRCUS, you will enjoy a wonderful Steak and a very un-circus circus like Steakhouse.

TDC, it is not my classification, rather every pool and critc magazine that rates it, including here. The term French Steakhouse to me just means they serve it in sauces. Like every good steakhouse they all serve seafood, chops, fish, chicken, and lamb.

To each his own, so if you want to call it something else, no problem here. But I still say if I want a steak or French food, I am not going to MAG to get it.

If I were from your area of the country, I certainly wouldn%26#39;t come to Vegas for French or Italian as you have places like Carlos and Spiaggia, not to mention the original Mortons and Chicago Chop House. YUM.
