Restaurant Guy Savoy, Las Vegas, Named One of the Top Restaurants by Gayot.com

For the first time, the world-renowned Restaurant Guy Savoy at Caesars Palace makes Gayot.COM’s Top 10 Hotel Restaurants in the U.S. for 2011… and for the fifth year in a row, the restaurant is also named on the Top 40 Restaurants in the U.S.

As noted on Gayot.com: “Culinary genius is not the only attribute a restaurant needs to make it to our Top 40 list. Destination dining needs to be exciting, intelligent and offer an exceptional experience that truly makes it heads and tails above the rest. Passion is essential because that is at the heart of a chef who can offer us a meal we will never forget.”

ABOUT RESTAURANT GUY SAVOY
Caesars Palace welcomed Michelin three-star French chef Guy Savoy in May 2006 to its Augustus Tower, making this the famed chef’s sole U.S. restaurant. His coveted three Michelin stars are widely recognized as the pinnacle in culinary achievement. In 1997, he was honored with a “Guy Savoy” entry in the prestigious Larousse encyclopedia. In 2000 he received the Legion d’ Honneur – his country’s highest honor – from the French Minister of Agriculture, and, in 2009, was named “Officier” of the Legion d’Honneur. In 2002 he was awarded his third Michelin star and voted “Chef of the Year” by his French peers. Since opening in May 2006, the Caesars Palace restaurant has received widespread critical acclaim including Esquire’s “Best New Restaurants,” and Gayot’s “Top 40 Restaurants in the U.S.” It earned 3 -1/2 stars from the Los Angeles Times while Newsweek International called it “the best restaurant in Las Vegas, and one of the finest anywhere.” In 2008, after only two years of operation, Restaurant Guy Savoy won the AAA Five Diamond Award and the Wine Spectator Grand Award.
