I have finally compiled all my Las Vegas posts into one place. I go to Las Vegas at least once a year, so over the past few years I’ve built up a nice collection of posts. There’s a ton of good dining in Las Vegas, and list below only scratches the surface of all the great food options in this unique city.
Nevertheless, I do try to seek out well-reviewed places that are known for food, so most (if not all) of the places on this list are restaurants that I highly recommend.
Note – the list below includes all restaurants I’ve visited. Not every single one has a post associated with it. I have tried to write short snippets about the restaurants without blog posts.
Don’t forget to check out the photo gallery (with live links to related posts) below!

Wynn
Wynn Buffet – one of the best buffets on the Strip and priced quite reasonably considering what you’re getting.
Alex – now closed. This two-star Michelin restaurant was opulent, beautiful, and had incredible food. Bryan still says the best seared fois gras he’s ever had in his life was at Alex.
Tableau – sunny and pleasant, this elegant spot in the Wynn Tower Suites has little “extras” such as providing a little stool for me for my handbag. The brunch is excellent (think Kobe beef and French toast, for example).

As a past 33 year resident of Las Vegas just had to add my two cents! I love both of Andre Rochat’s restaurants, Andre’s at the Monte Carlo and Alize at the top of The Palms. I almost cried when he closed his long standing restaurant in downtown… but life goes on. 🙂
Also have had a few good meals at the Eiffel Tower at Paris, although I have heard it is not as good right now. A nice late night treat is to go to the bar at the Eiffel Tower for Souffle’s and a nightcap. No need for the big meal!
Wow, thanks so much for sharing! I think I’ll add a line at the end of the post asking others to share as well. Thanks!
I love your reviews!
My favorite place to eat in Vegas is Sage. I went there for my last birthday and it was great. Their foie gras custard brulee was one of the best things I’ve ever had. I also went to Joel Robuchon, but I thought Sage was better (and so much less expensive!)
now i suddenly miss vegas!
Jaleo in the Cosmopolitan, and Sugar Factory on the Strip, i think it is part of Paris..
I just stumbled upon this and it is a perfect time, my husband and I are heading to Vegas for the first time next weekend. How did you get that amazing photo of the fountain from the sky?
Hi Carrie,
If you stay at the Bellagio at one of the higher floors, you get to look down upon the fountain shows all night long. It was one of my favorite parts of that particular trip. 🙂
Jen
Great photo of the fountain, surely when you are in higher place you can have a beautiful view of it and it’s wonderful retreat when you can watch that beautiful fountain.
Great view. This is so beautiful. clean up credit score
Las Vegas is really a great destination if you want to have a nice vacation. There are lots of things that you can do. Excitement will never run out.
All this food looks amazing and sounds delicious. Although I would love to check these places out, I discovered that I am more of a buffet enthusiast. Did you go to any buffets in Vegas? I went to the Wynn Buffet and I just loved it!
I’d come to recognize with you on this. Which is not something I typically do! I really like reading a post that will make people think.
Surely, this is one of the best buffets on the Strip and priced quite reasonably considering what you’re getting.
I want to eat all this food…It looks delicious and yummy!!!
Yes! My next Las Vegas series will discuss a cool new buffet that I discovered
It’s looks delicious…All this food looks amazing and sounds delicious.I want to try it now!!!
Actually, I went to the Wynn Buffet and I just loved it!
Jennifer,
The best buffet (yes even better than Wynn) is at Caesar’s Palace….The Baccanal….. which incedentally used to be the worst in Vegas. Every section has it’s own chef so the food is fresh and tasty! It is the most expensive but worth it. Go Hungry!
You do a great write up and take excellent pictures.
Thanks! I haven’t tried the Baccanal yet since it’s pretty new. I’d tried to old one at Caesar’s years ago and it was quite average. Thanks for the tip!
