Las Vegas Eating Guide

June 15, 2011 by Jennifer Che 19 Comments

Bellagio Fountains night
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!

What are your favorite places in Vegas? Please share in the comments below!

Bellagio Buffet – probably the most famous (and one of the best) buffets on the Strip, complete with all sorts of luxurious items from around the world.
Olives – we actually thoroughly enjoyed our sandwiches here for lunch (great Cuban!), though the Boston location left a bit to be desired.

Delano

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).

Bazaar Meats by Jose Andres
Red Rock Casino & Resort

    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!

    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!)

    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. 🙂

    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.

    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.

    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!
