Description: Although it's the largest city founded in the 20th Century, Las Vegas retains the energy of a frontier town where the unexpected is still a daily occurrence. The dining scene is equally as adventurous and Charlie Palmer is one of its trail blazers. Sensing that Vegas was about to undergo a renaissance, Palmer made an early investment, opening Aureole in the Mandalay Bay Resort in 1999. The show stopping menu under the direction of Executive Chef Vincent Pouessel combines the classic cuisine of Aureole with the theatricality of Las Vegas in dishes like Olive Oil Poached Oregon Petrale Sole with Truffled Brussels Sprouts and Ahi Tuna and Veal Shank "surf and turf", while a four-story, temperature controlled glass and steel wine tower—the largest in the world—houses 10,000 of Palmer's award-winning 50,000 bottle list, made accessible by an elaborate pulley system presided over by "flying wine angels" clad in black spandex Calvin Klein. After all, this is Vegas.

Aureole, a Charlie Parker restaurant, was disappointing. Although the restaurant is nicely designed and it has a nice location in Mandalay Bay. Our food took well over an hour after we ordered to arrive to the table and what's not prepared 100 percent to our liking nor was it as hot as it should have been. I did complain to... More

We ate at Aureole to celebrate my father's 75th birthday and had a marvelous evening. First, we had the perfect table for 5 - in a beautiful corner location overlooking the swan pool outside. Second, the service was spectacular - attentive but not hovering or intrusive. All of the food selections were amazing and the wine list had a large... More

We ate here early on a Saturday evening. I was really looking forward to a great wine list and a good sommelier, as they claim to be a wine sort of place. But their wine list is on a tablet and they only showed me four choices based on what I said I wanted, with little or no input from... More

The french onion soup is a masterpiece with truffles and a cheesy puff pastry topping. Last night I had the salmon with a blood orange sauce, very good but did not like the pasta that was served underneath. My husband had the New York strip steak with truffle fries. Both were very good for him.

Aureole is no doubt, the pinnacle of any visit to Las Vegas. What an amazing restaurant! The massive, sky-scraper-like collection of the world's best wines is brilliant and yet fades alongside the excellent service of the staff and the exquisite food on offer! I couldn't be happier with the experience, and it was an experience "hyped-up" for me well before... More

I thought it was OK. I was not impressed with the fries they served as an appetizer, especially in this day and age when people are trying to watch what they eat. Steak was ok. I kind of thought the menu was weird. Our waitress was great. BUT the wanted to charge $6. for steak sauce. Really! Would not go... More

The food at Aureole was okay, however, we've had better for the price. The highlight is probably the novelty of the wine angels - even that was just okay. There are better choices for the price in LV.

My experience of Aureole was attending a private function that had reserved the entire restaurant. A set menu of salmon and beef tenderloin, pear salad, and desert was provided. It was all very good, the salad was outstanding as were the variety of appetizers (lobster spring roll, breaded truffles, mini lamb sliders.....it was all great and in a nice setting... More

We celebrated our fourth anniversary at Aureole and enjoyed it immensely! Excellent service! Our waiter brought us a special dessert to celebrate our anniversary as well. We loved it!
