Mon Ami Gabi at Paris Las Vegas: What to Know Before You Go
A classic French bistro with the best people-watching patio on the Strip, sitting street level under the resort’s own Eiffel Tower.
I always tell people that Mon Ami Gabi is the closest thing Las Vegas has to an actual sidewalk cafe in Paris. It sits right at street level inside Paris Las Vegas, and the patio spills out onto Las Vegas Boulevard under the resort’s own Eiffel Tower, with an open view of the Bellagio fountains across the street.
It’s one of the 10 most Instagrammable restaurants in Las Vegas, and it earns that spot honestly. Order a glass of French wine, watch the fountains go off, and you’ve got a Vegas moment worth the photo before the food even shows up.
Dinner Under the Eiffel Tower
The patio is the whole reason people plan a visit around this place. You’re seated street level, right at the base of the Eiffel Tower, with an open sightline across Las Vegas Boulevard to the Bellagio fountains.
Ask for a patio table when you arrive. It’s first come first served on busy nights, and it’s the seat everyone wants, so plan for a short wait if you go at peak hours.
Mon Ami Gabi, the Details
Inside Paris Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, on Las Vegas Blvd at the heart of the Strip.
Classic French bistro. Think steak frites, onion soup au gratin, duck leg confit, mussels mariniere, and roast chicken a la Grand-Mere.
Upscale bistro pricing, business casual dress. The wine list runs more than 80 French bottles, poured tableside from a rolling cart.
The open-air patio is first come first served and fills up fast at sunset. You can reserve indoor seating on OpenTable, so check the official site for current hours and availability before you go.
How I’d Plan the Visit
Go Right Before Sunset
Grab a patio table an hour or so before sunset. You get the fountains, the lights coming on across the Strip, and the best photo light of the day.
Order the Classics
Start with the onion soup au gratin, then split the steak frites. It’s the dish this place is known for, and it holds up every single time.
