Las Vegas

2000 Fashion Show Dr; 702.476.7358

The Donald's new restaurant rocks a baroque, Titans-of-Industry vibe w/ crystal chandeliers, suede walls, mahogany tables, velvet curtained private booths, and an uber-attentive white-gloved staff. Cuisine's seasonal New American (e.g., Tasmanian Sea Trout w/ grapefruit and steel-head roe, mashed potatoes w/ bizarre names like Mr. Trump's Butter-Whipped Potato Puree); there're also carts pushing caviar, cognac, and champagne, plus 27 sakes, 52 top-flight beers, and 25 microbrewed sodas (Trump doesn't drink alcohol, presumably for fear it would bring out his abrasive side).
