The Best Restaurant in Downtown, Las Vegas

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Even during its heyday as the city's casino-gaming hot spot, Downtown was never much of a haven for gourmets, but things have gotten better with the influence of the Downtown Redevelopment Project. Downtown's big revitalization over the past few years includes a budding restaurant scene with a few places that are on par with the big Strip properties, and some casual but very tasty spots in the Downtown Container Park.

Jammyland Cocktail Bar & Reggae Kitchen

$ | Downtown

The Caribbean meets Las Vegas at this hip bar/restaurant in the Arts District Downtown. Cocktails are bold and boozy, mixing liquors such as rum and cachaca with tropical flavors in new, exciting, and counterintuitive ways. The food menu is limited to 5 or 6 simple options but comprises tastes of the tropics, too: "pepper pot" sliders, chickpea curry, Trinidad-style mac and cheese, and, of course, jerk chicken wings. The venue has limited indoor seating but the main attractions are its patios—one out front and one out back. Grab a spot near one of the firepits and jam to the reggae tunes.
