We originally sought out Bradley Ogden because we had received a $50 food voucher from the place we stayed in Vegas. We wanted a special meal at the end of our trip, and the restaurant desk at Caesar's recommended Bradley Ogden. We were seated immediately and found the simple warm off white linens, cherry wood contemporary decor, silver Cristofle flatware and contemporary white on white china elegant but not at all pretentious. The servers were smartly dressed, very pleasant and efficient (same is true for the entire staff from busboy to host). We were flying shortly after the meal, so we wanted something light. We shared a Caesar Salad (ample whole Romaine leaves, fresh Caesar dressing fitting for a restaurant inside Caesar's Palace and a slice of lovely Romano - $14 total). We both decided on the Free Range Chicken (Juicy! Crisp perfectly seasoned skin) served on a light spread of warm hazelnut sauce, with morel mushrooms (3 tiny pieces of morel - a bit of a disappointment since these were featured in the menu discription) and 3 lovely citrus pierogies. The presentation was simple and pleasant. The flavors made this perhaps one of the most memorable chicken dishes I've ever experienced. There was terrific depth to this dish, yet it remained fresh and simple. At $38 a la carte for chicken, it needs to be special - this was worth it to me. I'm still craving this dish. We waived off dessert and the waitress insisted we have a couple of shots of homemade butterscotch pudding on the house. These creamy, rich treats were full of butterscotch flavor without being overly sweet - and the fresh roasted and salted sprinkle of sunflower seeds on top of the dallop of whipped cream made this the perfect ending to a perfect meal. We will return here - $50 food voucher or not. Awesome!
Pros: Simple, fresh dishes with incredible depth of flavor. Professional and friendly service. 5 stars!
Cons: Cost of a la carte menu is high - but the food and service make it a fair value.
