Nice restaurant in Vegas-decor as important as food

I'm looking for a restaurant, probably around $100 for 2, not including alcohol or tip. We don't eat red meat or pork, but do eat seafood and chicken. The decor is as important to me as the food. I'm thinking of something dark and romantic, I don't like stuffy or frilly types of places. Any suggestions?

      Wow! Those are some tough stipulations. I think there's hope though.

      I recommend Aquaknox at the Venetian. It is a seafood place that is right about your stated pricerange. It is very romantic. In fact they have cabana tables where a curtain separates you from the rest of the restaurant. The decor is in line with the seafood theme and quite tasteful yet eyecatching. It's not stuffy at all. I don't know what "frilly" means.

      Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill may also qualify. Southwest themed. Not stuffy. ? Frilly. Right in your price range. I thought it was romantic although in a hip way. There are great chicken and seafood choices on the menu.

      Have a great meal.

        Although it is far from "dark", I would recommend Bouchon in the Venezia tower portion of the Venetian. Excellent roast chicken , among other things, and within your price point..
