28 Best Restaurants in Las Vegas
"Opened by legendary “Rock ‘n’ Roll Chef” Kerry Simon in 2014, this cozy and witty restaurant is considered almost solely responsible for revving up the now buzzy dining scene in Downtown Las Vegas. Housed in a former flophouse, Carson Kitchen later got a boost in the form of an expansion: a rooftop bar and lounge. The thoroughly urbane setting is perfect for those who prefer a laidback convo, cocktails, and shareable plates to a nightclub."
"With a special skill for classic American cuisine and handcrafted cocktails, Carson Kitchen is a pillar of the Las Vegas outdoor dining experience. Since they opened in 2014, the restaurant has spent years perfecting their menu and enhancing their outdoor rooftop and bar. Their menu is full of delicious bites including their butter burger and secret Sunday chicken sandwich."
"TAO Asian Bistro includes a nightclub, which makes it a great option for anyone looking to eat a top-notch meal before enjoying a night of dancing and drinks. Live DJs pump the latest jams on Fridays and Saturdays. With traditional dark wood and red accents, the atmosphere in TAO is opulent."
"Tao nightclub is one of the oldest nightclubs in Las Vegas that offer amazing features. Despite how old this club is, it has continued to maintain its reputation in the nightclub world. Tao is an entertainment venue where you get to meet different kinds of people including celebrities."
"The Asian-bistro dining room is perfect for a date night, but you can also enjoy trays of sushi at the nightclub upstairs and by the pool at TAO Beach."
"Love is in the air: Take your romance to the next level with an Eiffel Tower Restaurant experience. Admire center Strip views from floor-to-ceiling windows, all while savoring fine French cuisine. We recommend a table by the window to make the most of your night."
"We missed you at tonight’s wine tasting with Chataeu La Nerthe!. Sign up for our email list to learn more about all of our special events: http://bit.ly/2I9rKSg. This is where quality meets class."
"Hip-hop headliners, pool, and views from 11 stories above the Strip If you're looking for a club with great views, Drai's is the best choice -- day or night. The party destination is on the top floor of the Cromwell hotel with sweeping views of the Strip. (Pull out your phone and start snapping.) The main stage is indoors although acts often perform on the outdoor pool deck as well."
"Drai's is located at the Cromwell Hotel and being located on the roof of a Las Vegas hotel has some interesting perks. Drais gives users dual options in nightlife having both indoor and outdoor areas to party. While other clubs have focused on DJs, Drais has created an environment tweaked for live musical performances from today's top artists."
"The LGBTQ friendly the Garden in the Arts District features a garden patio, water fountains, and flowers. A wraparound bar with a white stone countertop creates the centerpiece for the bar, while overhead, crystal chandeliers accented with gold hang over brass and green velvet booths and bar stools, paying tribute to Mid-Century decor. In the center of the lounge area is a custom-made ornate fireplace that also serves as the DJ booth."
"Pizza Rock is the place to go if you want the best pizza in the world (literally). This restaurant is another project of award-winning pizza master Tony Gemignani, an eleven-time World Pizza Cup champion. In fact, Cal Italia pie at Pizza Rock won the Gold Medal in the Food Network Pizza Champions Challenge, while the Napoletana-style Margherita won the World Pizza Cup."
"Tony Gemignani isn't an 12-time World Pizza Champion for nothing: he knows how to make pies for every taste. Offering an extensive selection of gourmet pizzas, from California to Sicilian, this downtown pizzeria has something on its menu for everyone. There's even a separate category for gourmet gluten-free pies."
"Pizza Rock is slinging a family meal pick-up special that includes a large 20-inch pizza, four meatballs, and an order of garlic bread for $25. Curbside bottle service, including l..."
"Blame Hop Nuts for kicking off the local beer craze in the Downtown Arts District. The name pays tribute to the brewery's Green Mamba Double IPA -- a hop-heavy West Coast-style DIPA that scores extremely high on the IBU scale. (That’s International Bitterness Units, so consider yourself warned.) A second taproom is now open in the west valley at Tivoli Village."
"Even those who are not a hop head are still in luck at this hop-forward brewery, which produces not just citrusy IPAs and herbal pale ales, but also reds and Dunkelweizens. Food trucks, a large bar, and a patio round out the offerings. Also at Tivoli Village."
"A post shared by Downtown Grand Las Vegas (@downtowngrandlv) on Aug 15, 2017 at 11:43am PDT. Great place, great drinks, great games and great music, you can have them all at the Citrus Grand Pool Deck. Situated on the roof of the Downtown Grand’s casino, enjoy an awesome nightlife surrounded by a garden of organic herbs."
"After dinner, head back downtown to Tenaya Creek, a long-time Las Vegas brewery — it originally was located where PT’s Brewing is now. The taproom feels like so many of the nation’s taprooms: solid beer and low-key vibes, unusual for Las Vegas where most bars have gaming. While you’re in the neighborhood, you should check out the Neon Museum, which is only a mile away."
"so hard to find good vegan pizza but this was delicious & chris was cool to chat with for a few. the art inside was the bonus vibe i didn’t know i ne..."
"Restaurants Japanese West of the Strip. This once under-the-radar Chinatown restaurant is hardly a secret anymore, but that hasn’t diminished its culinary prowess. Ten years after chef/owner Mitsuo Endo began serving silky homemade tofu and robata-grilled beef tendon to in-the-know locals and off-duty chefs, the six-time James Beard semifinalist izakaya is still just as relevant."
"5030 Spring Mountain RoadBy adapting Japanese street food to a sophisticated setting, Chef Mitsuo Endo not only made Raku an in-demand dining destination, but helped broaden the perception of what's possible in Chinatown. Choose your fresh fish and have parts of it grilled, fried, or prepared as sashimi. Or stick with small bites roasted over charcoal on the robata grill."
"There weren’t many destination restaurants outside of the Strip before Raku. Raku made a 15 minute cab ride a cool thing to do. Raku also put Izakaya, Japanese pub style dining, on the map as well."
