Mon Ami Gabi

While the people-watching at Mon Ami Gabi is unparalleled (if you score a seat outside, there's nothing like the street-side view of the Strip from the patio), the food is also worth noting. There is always something new to try on this classic French bistro's ever-evolving menu. Traditional menu favorites include the Onion Soup au Gratin with bubbling baked Gruyere and the trademark Steak Frites. The Wild Escargots de Bourgogne with garlic-herb butter is also highly recommended, although you'll find no shortage of delectable dishes to choose from. To complement the cuisine, an extensive selection of more than 80 boutique French wine varietals--handpicked by Gabino Sotelino himself--are served by the glass or bottle from the restaurant's rolling wine cart.
