Maven's (my personal favorite)
121 Bistro
Several options at the casinos
Thanks for this. Assuming you meant "Mazen's". Very well rated. Menu is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Had no idea they also had a place in Lafayette. Not sure about 121 Bistro. Urbanspoon has not been kind to them and Mazen's entrees are a little more substantial.

Although casino's usually offer good value, I've pretty much sworn them off because they're never really smoke free.

Mazens is great. Their rack of lamb is superb.

Take a look at La Truffle Savage as well.

As far as steaks, Vic & Anthonys in the Nugget us the best. Would stay away from the rest of the food in either.

I did mean Mazen's, autocorrect got me The grand marnier souffle is amazing, and I'm not a big dessert person. Their fish dishes are superb and the duck is also one of my go to's. Last time I went they had a New York Strip with a chipotle bleu cheese butter sauce that was incredible.


I haven't had a bad meal at 121, but it's probably been 6 months since I've gone so maybe they've been having some issues.

Others have mentioned La Truffe, which I haven't tried but have heard great things about.
