Sadelle's Cafe Review

An Upscale Brunch Experience in the Heart of the Strip

Sadelle's Cafe brings a taste of New York sophistication to the Las Vegas Strip with its elegant take on classic American brunch and lunch fare. Located in the Bellagio Hotel & Casino, this establishment offers both indoor and patio seating with stunning views of the famous Bellagio fountains.

Ambiance and Atmosphere

The restaurant features a bright, airy space with modern decor accented by floral arrangements and tasteful artwork. The open kitchen allows guests to watch chefs prepare their signature bagels and smoked fish platters. While the atmosphere is generally relaxed during weekdays, weekends can get quite lively with a mix of tourists and locals.

Menu Highlights

Sadelle's is best known for their exceptional bagels, which are boiled and baked fresh daily. The smoked fish tower is an absolute showstopper - a multi-tiered presentation of smoked salmon, whitefish, and sturgeon served with all the traditional accompaniments. Other standouts include the French toast stuffed with raspberry jam and the classic eggs Benedict. Portions are generous, and ingredients are clearly high-quality.

Service and Experience

Service is generally attentive and knowledgeable, though during peak brunch hours (10 AM-2 PM on weekends), the pace can slow considerably. The staff is well-versed in the menu and can make excellent recommendations for first-time visitors.

Value Considerations

While certainly not a budget option (expect to spend $50-75 per person for a full meal with coffee and juice), the quality of ingredients and execution justify the premium pricing. The smoked fish platters in particular offer good value for groups sharing.

Special Features

What sets Sadelle's apart is their commitment to traditional techniques - from hand-rolled bagels to properly cured smoked fish. The Bellagio location also offers one of the best people-watching spots on the Strip, especially from the patio during fountain shows.
