We had a Travelzoo voucher for a 3 course dinner for two people that was about to expire, so I made reservations. I was looking forward to Andre's for some time because of his tremendous reputation in Las Vegas.

We were seated in the small room where the elevator comes from the first floor. At first I thought we had been placed in steerage, and perhaps we were, because everyone in our room had the Travelzoo voucher. Our server told us there are a lot used at the very beginning and a lot at the end of an offer. She also told us to keep an eye out because they were soon going to have another one because the summer months are the slowest for fine dining restaurants.

We were given the Travelzoo menu and made our choices. Shortly, a waiter brought us an amuse-bouche of a thin slice of jicama topped by a thin slice of sea bass and some small rounds of red pepper. It was tasty and the pepper slices gave it a small amount of zing. Shortly after the amuse, a waiter brought some warm baguette slices.

For our appetizers, my wife ordered the Caesar salad and I got the lobster bisque. Her salad was very good and quite large. My lobster bisque was OK. If you look at my photos, that's not lobster in my bisque. There were very few pieces of lobster. The menu describes the dish as lobster and corn stuffed sweet pepper. The dish was OK.

My main course was the duck breast and duck sausage and my wife got the chicken breast. The duck was cooked very well but the hit of this dish was the duck sausage. Excellent! My wife's chicken was nothing special.

For dessert, we each got the chocolate souffle and that was also very good. Service was good. Note, when using a Travelzoo voucher, they add 18% gratuity (large party rate) to your check.

I guess my lasting impression of Andre's was how little impressed I was by it. It's an oddly shaped place. Both dining rooms upstairs are small, and it's somewhat disconcerting to sit in a room where an elevator brings people in and past your table less than a few feet away. I do think the inner room was saved for regular customers a.k.a. non-Travelzoo people. I will give a big hand to our server who directed a jerk who came out of the cognac and cigar room while puffing away on his cigar.

I'm glad I ate at Andre's once, but this is not a place to which I'll return. There are way too many good choices in this town.

I usually get what I want here when I need it. in and out in a flash. Good people working here.

So overrated and pretty lousy food. Greasy spoon at its best. Better choices very close.
