Fine Dining in Las Vegas

See All Lists
This will run the gamut from 2 and 3 star Michelin experiences like Guy Savoy, Picasso, Alex, and Joel Robuchon to more affordable yet premium fare from the likes of Emeril, Bobby Flay, Thomas Keller, Mario B, Wolfgang, and such. I normally don't factor in pricing when it comes to stars - but if you pay over $100/meal then it needs to be factored in IMO.

  Update - 3/4/2011

I was on crack or something last time I rated this place.  You can't get this quality of food in Vegas at these prices anywhere else.  It's not cheap but for this quality it's a very nice deal.

If you come for breakfast get their chicken and waffles.…More »

Truly an experience you'll never forget.  YES, it costs about $400/person for the full tasting menu WITHOUT wine.  YES - it takes hours to finish.  YES - it will be one of the best meals of your life.  
Some highlights:
1) Artichoke soup served with…More »

This might be the first review in Yelp history where the reviewer (me) gives it 5 stars but is absolutely sure the people next to him would give it 1 star if they reviewed it.

About 10 minutes after I came in a nice, young sat down at the bar next to…More »

I would give this 5 stars except the paealla is not that great.

As for everything else on the menu, it's as good as anything I've had in my limited Tapas experiences.  Gotta have the potatoes bravas - their sauce is just so much better than a place…More »

Went there to use one of the three $50 gift certificates I bought at Costco years ago.  Doors closed...looked on the internet and they are out of business.  Bummer.

Came here and got the tasting menu with a foodie friend of mine.  We had gone to Guy Savoy the trip before (this was before I moved to Vegas) and wanted to compare.

Analysis?  Fantastic but not up to the level of a Guy Savoy on both an absolute level…More »

Pretzel bread is too salty.

That's the worst I can say about CUT over at Palazzo.  I will say I don't think it's the best steak I've had in Las Vegas.  I still give the edge to Delmonico for that.

However, you're gonna come away happy.

How many stars I'd give this place depends on a lot on what you order.  The service is great and the bread rolls they give you are out of this world.  

But the dishes can be hit or miss.  Haven't really enjoyed some of their pork dishes even though I…More »

I'm very surprised I'm only giving this 3 stars.  As I love Bobby Flay's taste in sauces and food in general.  I think we share a similar palette.  The man knows how to use a blender to create some bold and wonderful flavors.  Like myself - he likes…More »

Good food at high prices.  That's ok by me.

Have to give a big thumbs up to our server.  Not enough of a thumbs up to remember his name, unfortunately.  Looks like the Asian guy in the last Rambo movie.  Think he's on The Mentalist or one of those…More »

There is some serious value going on at this new steakhouse at the Riviera.  New ownership took over this hotel, I believe in April.  Since then they've made some impressive changes.  Everything is cleaner and much easier to navigate.

Anyways, on to…More »

Sandos Sandos Sandos (7)

I love myself a good sandwich.  This list are my recommended places - mostly in Las Vegas but also my other haunts like San Francisco and Southern California.

Just a normal night out (22)

Not "fine  dining" and not necessarily hole in the wall (though it can be that too).  This is my list of places to go for good eats that don't break the bank.

All about the MEAT (9)

Yo Yo.  When you're hankering for some fleshy goodness these are the places to hit up.  Holla!

Asian - EATS meets the West (8)

I'm talking about places real Asian folks hankering for a taste of the homeland love to eat at.  Of course every race loves Asian food but I'm talking about the authentic stuff here!

Las Vegas Buffets (4)

Nothing like a Vegas buffet.  Allow me to guide you.

Best Non-Alcoholic Drinks (2)

Yeah I don't drink booze much.  I like a good soda as well as anything a bartender can make me that mixed fizzy water with fruit juices, etc.  Yummy and no hangovers.
