Cili---Balinese for prosperity, good health and great fortune---is the restaurant for the posh Bali Hai Golf Club at the south end of the Strip. The elegant, non-smoking dining room features arched ceilings, a calming stream and mini-waterfall at its entrance, a sparkling little aquarium and floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the golf course, swaying palms, gentle waterfalls and mountains. The outdoor patio overlooks a lake on the club’s 16th hole. Cili opened in April 2001 as a Wolfgang Puck restaurant; Puck’s culinary expertise lives on with a few of his menu items, some slightly tweaked. Cream of tomato soup with basil pesto is a favorite, as is the lobster Cobb salad with mango, avocado, cucumber, egg and citrus vinaigrette. Among appetizer favorites are Balinese-style baby-back ribs with soy-ginger glaze and chicken and steak satays with peanut and red Thai curry sauces. Served with cucumber salad, green salad, fries or homemade potato chips, sandwich winners include the Kobe beef patty melt with roasted onions and cheddar on rye bread. Asian-inspired entrées include Asian-barbecued salmon with cold noodles and grilled sea scallops with fried rice, pork pot stickers and a savory soy-chile sauce.
