Like a toque-wearing Moses, Andre Rochat parted the waves of Las Vegas price range buffets in 1980, bringing the food of his native France to the culinary desert. Rochat has since added Andre's at the Monte Carlo and Alizé at the Palms. But his provincially decorated flagship in a 1930s-era downtown house-with four cozy eating areas, each representing a different French city and embellished with lots of wood, tapestries, and gentle lighting-is even now going good, owing simply to a menus that has both equally traditional French dishes for example coquilles Saint Jacques (scallops in a wine-enriched cream sauce) and many with current twists, like grilled quail with figs and prosciutto. Entrée prices start in the mid-30s.
