To the staff:

My bride and I celebrated our wedding rehearsal dinner at your restaurant and were delighted with the entire evening. The waiters were knowledgeable, courteous and discrete, and the food was outstanding. Perhaps the best element of the evening was the ambience. Your restaurant is a welcome change from the at times garish quality to Las Vegas.
You have our highest recommendation!

Sincerely,

Joseph and Anna Smart

We were impressed the first time we ate at your restaurant - that was a year ago when we got married. We returned this year for our 1st anniversary and are pleased to inform you that our dinner far exceeded our already high expectations! Reggie was outstanding and more than gracious to choose our wine for the evening. The pistachio encrusted lamb was ... well ... WOW. The crab cakes are only equaled by those found on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay. Once again, the escargot was flawless. A standing round of applause for Pamplemousse and we would like to reserve a table now for mid- January 2002 - our 2nd anniversary.

Dear Pierre-Jean:

I want to thank you for my visit to your restaurant. After visiting Las Vegas, suddenly I wanted out and found Pamplemousse to be my sanctuary for sanity.

Not only was the environment very inviting and quiet, but I must comment on the fabulous food and super staff. Our host and waiter were the most serving, most accomodating host and waiter I have ever had in my dining experiences. The food was beyond excellent, and if anything I will visit Las Vegas again just to have dinner at Pamplemousse (I have often fantasized about it since my return to Seattle).

I am proud to say that I dined at your restaurant, and happily recommend it to friends who are visiting Las Vegas, even if only for a short while. I see it as a "jewel" in Las Vegas that can go unnoticed, unless others point it out.

Nonetheless, after a three hour dinner at your restaurant, I found it to be more relaxing than a massage at the finest of spas. Congratulations on owning a truly fine establishment, and on the wonderful reviews that you receive every day. You deserve it!

Dear George and Pierre-Jean

thought I would take a minute to say thank you for everything you and your staff did to help plan and orchestrate my wedding reception last September. Everything was wonderful. The 45 friends and family who attended all concurred that you provided one of the best dining experiences ever!
Thank you again for your time, assistance and patience. I can't thank you enough!

Subject: Amazing!

If you want a truly unique and special dining experience, this is the place. It's where you can enjoy one of the world's least talked about pleasures - the pleasure of service and hospitality that stems from a host's genuine desire to please his or her guests. Seldom does one find such exquisite service and meal preparation together in one seamless and memorable event!
To miss dining here would be a disservice to yourself and your friends. So after you've been pushed and pulled by the crowds, had enough of buffet-line din and dither, and stuffed yourself full of cheap "so-called prime rib" of questionable origin but unbeatable price, step into the oasis of civility, charm and culinary accomplishment you'll find at Pamplemousse.

Pierre-Jean,

What a lovely evening! I knew from my first visit to Pierre's great website that our dinner would be a special one. Great food, attentive service, and a very special wine list all combined to create a memorable evening. Our special thanks to Reggie and John for their personal care and for being a great part of the Pamplemousse ambiance. George, Ellen and I have had the pleasure of dining at many great restaurants. Yours has been added to the very short list of places will visit again and again!

Dear John & Reggie

On behalf of Shaw-Almex and our distributors I want to express our appreciation for an excellent dinner party. The epicurean menu was a delight, the service was good and the ambience made everyone feel at home.
We especially appreciated your flexibility in adjusting to a smaller group than we had expected. (Unfortunately, it seems that even an affirmative response to an invitation does not guarantee the person actually appearing. Those who didn't attend missed a great evening.)

Once again, many thanks. We shall look forward to visiting again when next we are in Las Vegas.
Regards,

Ginny

Dear Pierre-Jean, John and Reggie,

My husband and I want to thank all of you for a most delightful wedding evening at the Pamplemousse. The entire family raved about the tender filet mignon, gourmet sauces, professional presentation, warm and romantic atmosphere, great service, and oh, the warm French bread - truly my weakness (my bread plate was never empty)! And the wedding cake - the best we had ever eaten. The evening was all we had hoped it would be.

Pierre-Jean - Thank you for all the e-mails and quick responses to my questions.
John - you were wonderful with all your meticulous details (sorry we missed you)
Reggie - You were the best! No one could have served us better!! Hope you got the picture.

Thank you Pamplemousse for helping make our wedding event so special.
See you on our one year anniversary - if not before!
Sincerely,

Jim and Terry Watson

Dear Pierre-Jean,
Thank you for taking the time and answering all my questions.
I am very impressed with the friendly service and cooperation you have provided me so far. If our dining experience is as pleasant as the pre-event planning has been, you will not only have us a long-time customers but everyone we know. Thank you for everything and I look forward to meeting you.

What can't you say about the Pamplemousse. John you are one of the most professional hard working people I have ever met . It has been a pleasure to work for you. I look forward to many more good times. Reggie has taught me so much. Your a gem. Phil, stay in touch. Thank you to the entire Laforge family for all your support. The Pamplemousse has tradition in every nook and cranny inside the old home. I love it there. You forget you are in Las-Vegas the moment you step through the doors. If your in Las Vegas do not make the mistake of not eating at Pamplemousse. Absolutely the best French menu you will ever enjoy in the United States. The service, ambiance, and unique menu accompanied with the extensive wine list, make the Pamplemousse the #1 restaurant in Las Vegas. Thanks again everyone. Great Website.

Dear John,

Just wanted to drop you a note to thank you so very much for the absolutely awesome dinner/reception you and your staff provided for our daughter's wedding on September 10, 2000. Words can't describe our true feelings nor express our gratitude enough.

The atmosphere of the room you put us in - superb. The service by Reggie - excellent!! The food - mouth watering delicious!! The champagne you suggested (Domaine Chandon, Reserve Cuvee "2000") - couldn't have been any better. (We drank both bottles.) The entire staff - service above and beyond expectation.

Our daughter and son-in-law enjoyed themselves tremendously. And especially the 'Chateaubriand' and Escargots! The wedding cake was beautiful and delicious. (But I though we weren't going to be able to have the cake? Reggie said something about 'Creme brulee'? Just curious - definitely not complaining!)

You, Reggie, and your entire staff are to be commended for the outstanding job you did for this very special occasion. Again - we can't thank you enough.

We (and any of our friends/relatives) will be back to visit you on any future trips to Las Vegas. You have become one of the definite 'highlights' for our visits!

Thanks again,
Monty and LaVerne Montano

We understand from talking to our cab driver that the "locals" enjoy your restaurant as a well-kept secret. We are sorry that we must tell people what a wonderful establishment you have. We look forward to dining with you when we return in November. Thanks again for a memorable evening.

What a quaint restaurant! My husband and I wanted an evening away from the strip, we found your URL on the internet and decided to go on an adventure.

Thank you for your outstanding service and a lovely meal. We especially enjoyed the crudites, the basket presentation was beautiful! The scampi appetizer was delicately prepared. Your wine selection had some good choices. I had the duck, my husband had the lamb, both were skillfully prepared and tasted heavenly.

We want to thank you for the phenomenal service and meal we enjoyed at your restaurant! It was our wedding night, and we wanted to have a romantic gourmet meal. After finding your restaurant on lasvegas.com, we thought it sounded perfect. It truly was.

John was so kind and informative when we called to make reservations. In person, he was delightful and made great suggestions when we ordered. The service was friendly and at just the right pace for us to enjoy our romantic meal and wine.

The food itself was fabulous. We have never had such delicious escargot (the chef's special recipe) in our lives. And the rest of the meal just followed suit.

Thanks again for making our special day even more special. We look forward to seeing you again on our anniversary.

The meal was excellent and service superb, only gripe for the evening was we were not allowed to smoke. Maybe it would be worthwhile stipulating this on your web site.
However it was an excellent evening.
Many thanks

"Thank you Kerry for this important tip and thank you also for your (following) letter clarifying what happened. We are very sorry for the misunderstanding.
Following your advice I also stipulated this detail in the reservation page.

Pierre-jean,

Thanks for the reply.
To help clarify the smoking issue for you, we arrived as soon as you opened after our wedding ceremony, I think about 6.00. When we enquired about smoking the 'Maitre De' explained that due to the 'Comdex' conference, smoking was not allowed because of the increased bookings.
I did not, I must confess, stipulate smoking in my reservation.
Please feel free to post my comments in your guest book, further your restaurant is one of the finest I have dined in.

Many thanks to you and your staff for helping to make our important day that extra bit special. Needless to say your fine establishment will always be recommended by me.

I am very tardy in sending my thank you's. Our group had the wonderful pleasure of your establishment in September. The day was Thursday Sept. 16, 1999. It will be a day we will all remember. We were a group of ten women in Las Vegas for a conference for health educators. Our waiter, Reggie, was a wonder. He impressed us from beginning to end!!! The food was fabulous. And presentation, well superb! I just wanted to know that you were true to your tradition of a fine establishment with the flair for service!!
Thank you.
I will be sure to visit when I come to Las Vegas again.....
