2 Best Restaurants in Center Strip, Las Vegas

The Waldorf Astoria has extended its Peacock Alley brand with an outlet on the 23rd floor of the Las Vegas resort in the space formerly called the Tea Lounge. Lounge seating and floor-to-ceiling windows make for a comfortably elegant vibe, and a bar adorned with feather motifs and a blue-and-gray palette to carry out the theme. Afternoon tea is served at three seatings Wednesdays through Sundays, with a menu of tea sandwiches and scones and two exclusive tea blends. 

In an ultraswank dining room on the second floor of the Augustus Tower, Michelin three-star chef Guy Savoy introduces diners to his masterful creations, such as crispy branzino roulade with ceviche and fennel. The seven-course 5 Star Celebration Menu features signature dishes like the artichoke-and-black-truffle soup and binchotan-charred octopus with caviar. Prices are a little lower if you opt for the à la carte menu. The selections from Savoy's 15,000-bottle wine cellar only add to this restaurant's epicurean mystique.
