Twist at Mandarin Oriental (Las Vegas), in the city centre mid-Strip, is yet another gourmet restaurant which tries to 'woo' you visually and of course challenge you in terms of gastronomy. It's super modern and every dish comes in a fancy presentation just as you would expect from a gourmet restaurant. The price matches, of course, and you can easily spend 40 dollars for a fancy fish dish, for example; if you come from an expensive city like London or Vancouver you won't even blink at the prices and you'll overall thoroughly enjoy eating here. If you come to Vegas expecting the fantastic Vegas deals we have all grown accustomed to, then Twist is not for you.
This is fine dining, gourmet dining, so come here if you have extra cash, want to sit somewhere really modern, want to absorb the 'city-centre' ultra-modern atmosphere and want to see Mandarin Oriental Vegas, of course. Don't expect buckets of character, it's just modern elegance, the emphasis being on the word 'modern'.
Located on the 23rd floor, it's said to be the only US restaurant where you can experience the chef's (Pierre Gagnaire) fine, 'experimental' cuisine, so far (this famous chef has top fine dining restaurants in many world cities such as London, Paris and Dubai). His cuisine is supposed to challenge your taste buds in a revolutionary blend of flavors and textures, departing from traditional combinations (this has been called the 'molecular gastronomy').
What this Vegas restaurant looks like: Super modern, high ceilings, glass staircase to increase the 'wow' factor leading to a signature wine wall; 300 floating illuminated 'globes' to light up the area in an innovative way. It's a 65 seater so you won't be feeling lost and you'll be wall taken care of. Of course, being on the 23rd floor of Mandarin Oriental, you'll enjoy fantastic views of Las Vegas.
Customers: Well, Twist at Mandarin Oriental is higher-end so expect food-lovers and food connoisseurs, but also convention attendees splashing out, regular people who want to experience something different food-wise and in terms of atmosphere and, of course, regular 'folks' 'treating' themselves in one way or another. No children under 12 are allowed so you won't be hearing screaming nor tantrums, and that's great news to our sensitive ears and souls (smile!): at Twist you can enjoy your food in a great atmosphere.
The food items are truly varied and there's something for everyone, but if you are a vegetarian you may be hard-pressed if you want a decent range of choices, unfortunately. For non-vegetarians, you can choose between a 6-course menu but, of course, a range of a la carte choices.
