Best Nightlife in North Las Vegas

"The closest you are going to get to a classic New York rooftop bar is tucked away at the top of this dining destination. Besides being one of the premiere eateries Downtown, Carson Kitchen carries on founder Kerry Simon’s legacy with an atmosphere of sophisticated fun. The rooftop is like a destination within a destination, perfect for some of their famous bacon jam with baked brie and toasted baguette or an innovative cocktail."

"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."

"Downtown’s Carson Kitchen offers two patios, including one on the rooftop. Diners can order crispy chicken skins or bacon jam, or grab a beer from the list that includes local breweries."

"Experience exquisite Asian cuisine at TAO Asian Bistro, which offers delicacies from China, Japan, and Thailand. Fresh food is expertly crafted and served in the dining room, where a 20-foot-tall Buddha floats above an infinity pool brimming with Japanese koi. With an exciting mix of traditional and contemporary Asian cuisine and invigorating decor, TAO is just the thing to revitalize you before a night on the Strip."

"Paris Las VegasThe next time you gaze up to the top of the Eiffel Tower replica on the Strip, lower your eyes a bit to the middle. That's where you'll find the Eiffel Tower Restaurant, where the dining room comes with sweeping Strip views that overlook the Bellagio fountains across the street. The restaurant, which features a mix of American and French cuisine, is so romantic, it's seen more than 10,000 proposals over the past 20 years with special packages available to pop the question in the best way possible."

"One of those Las Vegas restaurants with a view, this Eiffel Tower restaurant offers you the charm of Paris in the Sin City. The place is charming and undoubtedly romantic. They have both lunch and dinner option available with two and three courses, and the former is cheaper than the latter if budget is your concern."

"At this haute eatery midway up its namesake tower, the Francophile wine list is vast, the chocolate soufflé is unforgettable and views of the Strip and Bellagio's fountains are breathtaking."

"Drai’s after-hours venue offers a more intimate experience|© Hugh Threlfall / Alamy Stock Photo. Drai’s has been a staple of Las Vegas for so long that it’s become known as the city’s longest-running nightclub. Since 1997, Drai’s signature style has been giving local people and tourists a place to kick back and enjoy an upscale atmosphere long after all other nightclubs have closed their doors for the day."

"Sitting atop the Cromwell like a glowing, palm tree-studded crown is Drai’s, the pool party and nightclub from legendary impresario Victor Drai. Visit during the day and the pool is the center of attention, surrounded by lounge chairs and two levels of cabanas. Or come at night, when the breeze and the vibe render it an entirely different experience."

"A post shared by YYZ to LAS (@yyzlas) on Feb 12, 2019 at 12:35pm PST. If you are someone who is very much into parties and beach clubs, then Drai’s Beachclub and Nightclub is your perfect place. Nestled on the 11th floor of the Cromwell Hotel, the rooftop bar displays a party atmosphere."

"Moving out of the Downtown area and even off the Strip, you can find opulence in hotel bathrooms at the M, including tubs with a view of the Vegas night lights. The M is a bit of an anomaly in Vegas. It’s a casino for locals that nevertheless has a decidedly top-end Strip quality to its gaming floor, its restaurants, and its bathrooms."

"With over 100 television screens that show the chefs preparing your food along with other Food Network programs, this entertainment is sure to get your appetite going. More than 200 dishes are prepared fresh each day. Binge on wood-fired pizza, build your own nachos, and taste the famous Las Vegas prime rib dish."

"One of the more interesting places to view Las Vegas art is the Marjorie Barrick Museum. Located on the campus of UNLV, the Marjorie Barrick Museum is situated within a renovated historic gymnasium that features contemporary artworks as well as Pre-Columbian and Mesoamerican art. The six exhibit galleries include 50 pieces of international contemporary artwork from the Vogel collection which was bequeathed to the museum in 2010."

"Located on the University of Nevada, Las Vegas campus, the Barrick Museum features rotating exhibitions of everything from contemporary paintings to glass work to Ansel Adams' legendary collection of photography. Its well-curated collections and fun, hip vibe make it the perfect place to escape to for an hour or two. Admission is also free—perfect if you've been dealt a losing hand on the Strip."

"Changing with the seasons, Bellagio’s conservatory displays ostentatious floral arrangements, installed by crane through a soaring 50ft-high ceiling. The effect is unnatural, but that doesn't stop crowds from gawking, and the aroma of fresh blooms is enchanting. Peek around the periphery of the conservatory for classic paintings re-created with buds and flowers instead of oil paints."

"The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas’ barbershop features a speakeasy bar in the back. The Barbershop Cuts & Cocktails offers a mahogany bar from Kentucky originally built in the 1800s and a barrel-aged whiskey selection ranging from American, Japanese, Irish, and Canadian whiskeys to bourbons and scotches. Craft beer and other sipping spirits including tequila, mezcal, and Champagne make the menu as well."

"Vegas’ oldest freestanding bar, named for a time when customers watched atomic blasts from the roof, was originally built in 1945 and was originally called Virginia’s Cafe. The Rat Pack and the Smothers Brothers drank here after their nightly shows, and Barbra Streisand even had her own seat at the bar. Sour beers are a specialty here, but consider this one of the best places to go when a beer is needed."

"Although Atomic Liquors is the oldest freestanding bar in Las Vegas, the bar has a modern feel that is quintessentially Las Vegas. After eating at Carson Kitchen, it’s a no-brainer to grab a drink at nearby Atomic Liquors. Belly up to the bar, place some coins in the jukebox and breathe in the air of hipness with a taste of nostalgia on the side."
