text: The wife and I had a pleasant dinner at Pinot during a recent stay at the VenetiannnWe started by splitting an endive salad they literally split it onto two plates which was a nice touch but the two halves were so small as to be almost comicalnnMy wife had the lobster for her main and it was really perfect She did her best to extract every morsel while remaining as ladylike as possiblennMy entree was duck breast and it was fairly good but there was a thin vein of gristle that kept it from being among the best I would ever hadnnWe ended up skipping dessert because of the richness of our entrees but we did have a couple of nice glasses of wine I have since forgotten the producer but mine was a delicious Washington Pinot Noir while my wife had champagnennOur server was very nice and patient with us which is always appreciatednnWe really like the atmosphere at Pinotit is elegant without being stuffynnDont expect to be blown away by the food or the value this is Vegas after all but if you are staying at the Venetian Pinot Brasserie is a suitable spot for a romantic dinner for two
