It must be the rose. Sure, there are several reasons why Hugo's Cellar has been one of Las Vegas's most romantic hideaways for more than two decades. Though it's located just one flight down from the noisy Four Queens casino, the bells and whistles of the gaming machines fade quickly into the background, and guests at this dark, intimate spot dine in blissful quiet. The red brick walls, white linen, award-winning wine list and attentive service (including a tableside salad cart) all enhance the dining experience. Entrees include veal dijonaise, herb-crusted lamb rack, roast duckling flambe anise, seasoned steaks aged 21 days, raspberry chicken and an enormous cut of prime rib. The finishing touch of light and dark chocolate-dipped fruits served with fresh whipped cream brings every meal to a sweet conclusion. Many believe, however, that it's the long-stemmed red rose presented to each lady upon entry that wins over diners before they even reach their table. -- David Hofstede
