152 Best Restaurants in Las Vegas, Nevada

Eleven-time world pizza champion Tony Gemignani installed four ovens in this heavily renovated, industrial-chic space in the Downtown Third district so he could produce all styles of pizza: Neapolitan, Romano, American, New York, classic Italian, Californian, New York/New Haven, Sicilian, and Chicago. Don't neglect the starters, though; the fried green beans with garlic and olive oil and beer-battered fried artichokes are worth the trip alone. The group table with a roulette wheel in the center is quite a sight.

Even among celebrity chefs, Jean-Georges Vongerichten has established a "can't touch this" reputation. Prime—with its gorgeous view of the fountains—is a place to see and be seen at Bellagio. The restaurant, which was renovated in early 2025, sets a living-room vibe from the marble-framed entrance, with accents of carved glass and 1940s Parisian sconces. The reimagined menu still focuses on steak, of course, but also has an extensive raw bar and offers briny choices such as a seafood plateau and Chilean sea bass. Land-based dishes also include the likes of truffled barbecued short rib and Parmesan-crusted chicken. 

Take a break from shopping and step into this dimly lighted restaurant and lounge that's part of a growing chain with a menu of both sushi and cooked entrées. Delicious sushi rolls might include the Gojira (with shrimp tempura, krab mix, cream cheese, and cucumber) or the Crazy Monkey (stuffed with smoked salmon, mango, and cream cheese and topped with avocado, red tempura bits, cashews, and sweet eel sauce). Heartier fare includes chicken, shrimp, or steak yakisoba, and chicken katsu with Asian cole slaw. The happy hour specials here are popular with the locals. Late-night noshers appreciate that it's open until midnight, until 1 am on Friday and Saturday.

With Las Vegas Raiders games packing Allegiant Stadium, fans of the Silver and Black will likely find this sports bar and grill at the M Resort as intoxicating as the spirits on tap at one of two bars in this large, 3,400-square-foot room. Raiders helmets and footballs line the entryway, while framed jerseys of past gridiron greats and a gift shop loaded with Raiders gear make this a must-stop for team diehards. The all-night menu ranges from stadium fare like burgers and Philly cheese steaks to homemade BBQ, wood-fired pizzas, street tacos, and steak and salmon entrees. Breakfast is served on Saturday and—of course—Sunday, so you can fuel up before the big game and then root, root, root for the home team on one of 45 TVs.

When the Rainforest Cafe moved out of its longtime berth in the MGM Grand, the animatronic animals naturally made the journey with it, just up the Strip near Harmon Avenue. But while you're watching and listening to them there's plenty to eat, with a menu offering an eclectic mix of classic American food like St. Louis-style spareribs, chicken-fried chicken with country gravy, sandwiches, and burgers. International flavors are represented by the likes of fajitas and a spicy Korean stir-fry. And kids can indulge in "Python Pasta" or "Jurassic Chicken Tidbits." Brunch is served on weekends from 10 to 2, and an a afternoon happy hour gives Mom and Dad a break from walking the Strip. 

Culinary lion Alain Ducasse replaced his renowned Mix with the equally stunning Rivea, offering unparalleled views of the Strip and Riviera-style interpretations of his cuisine from the 64th floor of the W Las Vegas. It's suitably more casual fare, with options like paccheri pasta with braised short rib, and sautéed calamari and prawns with baby artichokes and radishes. Traditionalists will find comfort in dishes such as pepper-crusted bison tenderloin, or Alaskan wild halibut with braised Belgian endive. The five-course tasting menu includes a chef's-inspiration risotto. Try one of Ducasse's famous babas for dessert, but with a limoncello twist.

This offshoot of the Chicago original—from celebrity couple Giuliana and Bill Rancic and Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises siblings R. J., Jerrod, and Molly Melman—has a modern-Italian mission, which is reflected in its sleek, sophisticated decor. The Vegas-classic starters of steak tartare and beef carpaccio are joined by the more creative Maine lobster caprese and bluefin tuna crudo. The expected pastas are joined by one with spicy king crab, and a selection of steaks and chops, seafood, and Italian classics round out the menu. There's a three-course lunch prix fixe menu on weekdays and kids' and gluten-free menus. Happy hour from 3 to 6 pm weekdays offers discounted cocktails, wines, and small bites.

This fast-casual favorite born in New York City now has seven locations in Las Vegas, and the only thing different about it is that the lines aren't so long. It's a great place to stop for a Shack Burger and fries, and don't forget the shakes and frozen custard. The Strip location has been joined by others around town and at Harry Reid International Airport.

Encore recalls the panache of vintage Vegas by dedicating one of its fine-dining venues to Frank Sinatra. Expect simple, elegantly presented Italian cuisine, such asd risotto with lobster, and ossobuco "My Way." Framed photos of Ol' Blue Eyes (as well as his Academy Award for From Here to Eternity) adorn the ivory-and-ruby-hue indoor dining room. The legendary crooner's music plays softly while well-dressed guests nibble their antipasto next to the fireplace on the outdoor patio. Some just pull up a seat at the swank bar to order a cocktail or postprandial limoncello or grappa. Go ahead and imbibe!—Frankie would approve. A "living well" menu is available. Kids under 5 are not allowed.

The soul in the belly here comes courtesy of James Beard–nominated chef Bruce Kalman, who might be recognizable on sight to viewers of foodie faves Top Chef, Chopped, and Beat Bobby Flay. Bringing the barbecue flavors of central Texas to Vegas, this atmospheric venue adds cocktails, local beers, and live entertainment to the mix to turn what might have been just a barbecue dinner into a barbecue experience and a night on the (Down)town.

After more than 25 years at The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace—where it launched Las Vegas's enduring romance with celebrity chefs—Spago moved to Bellagio, in a spot overlooking the famous Fountains of Bellagio. The menu's still vintage Wolfgang Puck, of course, which means his signature pizzas, house-made pastas, and entrées with produce fresh from the market. Brunch is served on Friday and Saturday.

The generic name and less-than-glamorous location mean this one tends to fly under the radar, but The Steak House has long been beloved by locals and visitors who are in the know. Its elegant entrance opens onto a room with throwback decor, a glass-enclosed meat-aging room, and an exhibition-style mesquite charcoal broiler. On the menu you’ll find numerous steak cuts, including porterhouse, New York strip, and bone-in ribeye, as well as grilled seafood, lamb, and chicken.

This lavish but cheeky steak joint, an off-shoot of the New York City original, wears its bordello-chic atmosphere with a healthy touch of irony. The red-flocked wallpaper and other decor may suggest that you're inside an early-20th-century house of ill repute, but the menu of artfully presented chops and classic American food reflects a highly skilled, contemporary kitchen. Appetizers such as roasted bacon with pickled cucumber and lobster bisque are indulgent starters. A broad variety of steaks includes 20-ounce bone-in or 14-ounce dry-aged rib eyes, as well as filets and New York strips, but you can also order miso sea bass or crispy organic chicken and will be just as satisfied. The 24-layer chocolate cake makes for a fittingly decadent end to your meal.

The butter finish that makes restaurant steaks so delectable is done with a particularly artistic flair at StripSteak, where James Beard Award–winning chef Michael Mina puts his modern touches on the traditional steak house with a wood-burning grill and butter-poaching method turning out numerous cuts of beef every night. The menu includes several large-format choices, such as a 36-ounce dry-aged Porterhouse or a 40-ounce tomahawk, either of which will serve two (or more), plus more manageable sizes and several Japanese A-5 wagyu cuts. Or try something classically Mina-quirky, such as the 16-ounce duck-fat prime rib with blue cheese popover and fresh horseradish, or a caviar jelly doughnut. There's an extensive raw bar, seafood towers, a trolley with liquid desserts, as well as a three-course tasting menu that touches on the chef's Egyptian roots.

On the top floor of the towering atrium at the Strip entrance to The Forum Shops, Roku occupies an airy dining room lined with bamboo stalks and tall windows facing the Strip. Sushi is the main draw, but there's much more. You can't go wrong with the fluke kumquat with yuzu vinaigrette, or the White Lotus roll with popcorn shrimp tempura, avocado, and asparagus. But greater rewards come to those who venture deeper into the extensive menu. Feel like indulging? Go for the Roku Izakaya Feast for two.

Come to this trendy restaurant for its South American–influenced fresh sushi and sashimi, beautifully prepared and presented, with novel garnishes. Dim lighting, hip music, voluptuous decor, and excellent cocktails complement the exotic fusion of flavors from Japan, Brazil, and Peru. A variety of small plates and brightly seasoned raw seafood are served, as well as sizzling skewers of grilled meats, seafood, and vegetables. Try a side of purple-potato mash, coconut rice, or Peruvian corn with your tobanyaki or teriyaki, and be sure to save room for chocolate banana cake or dulce de leche Japanese doughnuts. Try Samba Hour from 3 to 6 pm Sunday to Friday at the bar. A kids' menu is available.

Well-dressed local professionals are drawn in by the striking slabs of dragon onyx guarding the entrance to this upscale steak house inside Red Rock Casino. It's the perfect spot for a romantic or celebratory meal, especially since live music enhances the ambience at night. During the social hour from 4 to 6 pm Sunday through Thursday, half-price martinis and bar snacks such as the French lobster rolls or the ahi tuna tacos are served on the cheap. Much pricier, however, is the à la carte dinner served in the seductive dining room. The menu features oversized dry- and wet-aged prime steaks, seafood, and poultry, and Old Vegas–style dishes including chateaubriand.

The tunneled vestibule of this nightclub-cum-bistro is lined with stone tubs filled with water and rose petals, leading patrons—including lots of celebrities—into the dim, lavishly decorated space. The pan-Asian menu is almost endless, with dishes from sushi to dim sum and everything in between, but most people come more for the experience than the food. Decor includes black cobblestones, bamboo, and Buddhas (one that's 20 feet tall is seated above a koi-filled pool). The quintessentially Asian decor complements the expertly prepared sushi and sashimi. Reserve a table early to enjoy dishes (Spring Mountain Roll with spicy crab and lobster, lobster wontons with shiitake ginger broth, Peking duck for two) in tranquility before loud, young crowds and thumping music descend from the nightclub upstairs. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are available. 

Tender is the requisite steak house that every Las Vegas hotel-casino seems to have, but it sets itself slightly apart from the pack with such treatments for its wet- and dry-aged beef as butter-poaching (filet mignon, filet Oscar, surf and turf), a warm seafood platter for two, a coffee-rubbed New York strip and a whole list of "enhancements" that include seven sauces, or a trio of them. Fronted by a lounge that's open to the casino, the dining area is appropriately steakhouse-clubby, with lots of attention to detail in service and presentation.

From restaurant-industry veteran and Smashburger founder Tom Ryan, this gastropub bridges a space at New York–New York between the casino and the Brooklyn Bridge that runs along the Strip, delivering great views of the action. The large menu of drinks and beers is matched by an extensive food menu, including burgers, pizzas, and other entrées. It's a good spot to try the salted caramel skillet French toast or crispy chicken and cornbread pancake for breakfast or brunch, and butter-poached lobster and shrimp tacos or Tom's Famous Prime Rib dip for lunch or dinner. The kids' menu has all of the favorites. Tom's also is open late—until till 1 or 2 am on Fridays and Saturdays—making it a handy post-game or after-concert spot.

Reserve a window-side table at twilight to see sunset melt into sparkling night while savoring updated Continental cuisine. From a height of 844 feet, the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows offer 360-degree views of the Vegas Valley as the entire 106th-floor dining room makes a complete revolution every 80 minutes. The jaw-dropping views are the big draw, but the food is not overshadowed with a menu featuring such dishes as pan-roasted sea bass with curried coconut and lime broth, a 22-ounce bone-in dry-aged prime ribeye, or rack of lamb with root-vegetable hash. Proposal packages also are available. Although it is generally quiet and romantic, the occasional bungee jumper hurtling past the windows from rooftop thrill rides provides some unexpected excitement. A stationary cocktail lounge for casual sipping is on the 107th floor.

You won't find too much in the way of nouvelle flourishes or ultramod decor at this San Francisco–style restaurant, and that's just how both visitors and locals prefer it—the elegant dining room is a favorite haunt for power-lunching and hobnobbing. Triple George is known for its commendably prepared traditional American fare such as oysters on the half shell, classic "wedge" salad, oh-so-tender pot roast, and truly stellar sourdough. Seafood and chops dominate the fancier parts of the menu, from seafood cioppino and traditional fish-and-chips to a bone-in prime New York strip and a hefty pan-seared porcini-crusted rib eye.  The "glegan" (gluten-free and vegan) menu is among the best in town.

Though a bit of a sleeper on the South Strip, Twin Creeks is a fairly budget-friendly steak house that’s become a favorite of locals since there are steak entrees under $50. All the beef is Certified Black Angus, in cuts including filets, rib eyes, porterhouses, and New York strips, as well as a 40-ounce tomahawk for two and prime rib in two sizes. Start with wagyu carpaccio or a grilled artichoke, then proceed to your favorite cut—or crab legs, rack of lamb, or house-made pierogies. The atmosphere is steakhouse-classy, complete with semi-circular tufted booths.

In Las Vegas nothing succeeds like success, so it was no surprise when Caesars International announced a sister for the wildly successful Vanderpump Cocktail Garden at Caesars Palace. Lisa Vanderpump's spot at Paris Las Vegas has somewhat more of an emphasis on food, with dishes like caviar bites, a trio of tartares, the truffle stuffed Vanderpump baguette, coq au vin pot pie, bourguignon pot pie, and a cast-iron filet with pink (of course!) peppercorn reduction. The desserts may carry the heaviest French accent, with creme brulee beignets and mousse au chocolat bites. Cocktails include shots, spritzes, and all the classics, and Vanderpump signatures like "Pump & Circumstance" (a pear and ginger mule) and "Pinky’s Poison" (a hibiscus gin and tonic).

Philadelphia-based Marc Vetri opened his first Las Vegas restaurant in the space once occupied by Alizé high atop the Palms, a full 56 floors above the Las Vegas action. Decor is simple so as not to compete with the views through the expansive windows, which are incomparable. The cuisine's Italian, but make no mistake: this is no red-sauce joint. Vetri conceived a destination restaurant and filled its menu with sophisticated dishes like brisket and doppio ravioli with pickled red onion. You can trust the chef with a six-course tasting menu. If you just want light bites, cocktails, and a view, Tuesday through Saturday offers a happy hour in the bar area from 5 to 6:30 pm.

Once you get past the bland office-park setting, you'll find that this sumptuously decorated spot near Red Rock Resort has plenty to recommend in the way of contemporary Mediterranean fare. A Spanish- and Italian-influenced menu is enhanced by a large selection of wines by the glass. Start with one of the wood-fired flatbreads, or an item such as pan-seared crab cakes with tarragon cream and roasted peppers. From here the menu branches out to sandwiches, pastas, meat, and seafood. A highlight is the bouillabaisse with mussels, clams, red snapper, shrimp, scallops, and calamari. As the restaurant's name suggests, there's an impressive wine list here—and wonderful cheeses and charcuterie. At midday, look for the power-lunchers who escape the beaten path. On nice evenings, ask for a table on the outdoor patio, where the view is better than you might expect.

The high-end, modern-Japanese restaurant offers six- and nine-course tasting menus, as well as a 9-course vegetarian version and a private experience in the omakase room Thursday through Saturday. If you’d rather control your own destiny, the myriad à la carte options include various types of sushi priced by the piece, as well as rolls and sashimi. Or choose foie gras, tempura, katsu, robatayaki, lamb, chicken, seasonal fish, and meats including Japanese A5 wagyu.  

This popular Southern California restaurant, wine bar, and retail store has a sprawling two-story presence in The District at Resorts World. At dinner, expect dishes finished with truffles from wherever in the world they’re in season, such as truffle Bolognese; baked brie with truffle honey, truffle butter, and shaved truffles; truffle gnocchi; or truffle pizza. Alternatively, choose from among the steaks or be tempted by grilled halibut or pork belly. From the all-day menu, choose a cheese or charcuterie plate from nearly two dozen selections. Try the wood-oven-roasted French toast with lemon whipped ricotta and caramelized peaches at brunch from 8 am to 3 pm daily. The shop carries 8,000 wine labels, plus spirits, beer, and food items from all over the world for taking along or consuming on-site.

Among the casual dining options at Fontainebleau is this whimsical (can you tell by the name?) restaurant offering a menu of dim sum and other Cantonese (and Asian) specialties. The decor is abstract and somewhat dramatic, designed to set the stage for your meal. The menu's "Hong Kong Chow" section includes a mixed barbecue plate with pork, duck, and chicken, and main dishes like Hainanese chicken, and Thai massaman curry. Dim sum merges the familiar (chicken feet) with the not-so-familiar (squash and pine nut dumplings), and the cocktails are creative. 

The California-based King’s Seafood Co. brings its briny bounty to Las Vegas's Water Grill with a menu that includes many things you won’t find just anywhere. That might mean live California spiny lobster, Florida stone crab claws, Dungeness crab, live Alaskan halibut, or more than a dozen varieties of lobster—all in season, of course. Starters may range from classic clam chowder to mussels garbanzo with pancetta and harissa. Crustaceans and char-grilled or oven-roasted whole fish are sold by the pound, and there are sushi, raw bar, and chilled-shellfish menus, along with soups, salads, and a kids' menu.
