There’s a lot of things that happen in Vegas…that stay there, but you just gotta eat! Here are a few of the fabulous dining options we recommend!
Mon Ami Gabi–Located inside the Paris Hotel this French bistro is romantic and elegant and loud and exudes a casual elegance about it. You can dine outside under the heaters and gaze at the Bellagio across the street or hang out at the bar for a different night entirely. Dinner includes a loaf of warm bread and a carrot slaw that is sweet and tangy with a vinegar kick. The Hangar steak is divine and comes with a compound merlot butter and the Chicken Grandmere can easily feed two people.
StripSteak–Upperclass steakhouse also with seafood, duck, foie gras, roasted marrow bones (!). I have a full review on this place, it’s amazing, delicious, exciting, unique, and you will pay a price but we know it’s worth it. It’s inside the Mandalay Bay hotel and it has a nightly happy hour with prices you’ll love and you will talk about it for days afterwards!
Canaletto–Inside the Venetian Hotel and near the Canal, this fine dining restaurant will leave you FULL. The wine is amazing, I love the Caprese Salad, fresh bread is plentiful. I ordered a Calzone and it was enormous and enough for two people! Expensive but nice for a special occasion. My husband had a large lunch this day so he only had the soup, but he said it was full of flavor.
La Salsa Cantina–Inside the Miracle Mile Shops between the Paris Hotel and Planet Hollywood, you’ll find this little Mexican food gem. We ate here almost every morning because they have an amazing $3.95 breakfast (8-11am daily) that is served piping hot, quick, and it’s delicious and filling. Bacon (or ham or sausage), eggs, potatoes and tortillas with enough for a couple of breakfast burritos and you’re good to go. Chips and salsa are extra unfortunately and the bloody mary deals lack a little flavor, but the price is right!
Blondies Sports Bar & Grill The waitresses are dressed as cheerleaders at this fun place to eat, drink, and take in the sport of choice on their bar filled with TVs, tables with built-in kegs, and my husband’s favorite, the 100 oz beer! Come mid-week and play beer pong if that’s your game. The sliders are delish, the chicken teriyaki bowl is filling and my favorite drink, “Sex and the Sin City” has been replicated a lot since we’ve gotten home from our trip. Ate here once, drank her a few times and the guys enjoyed the game. This is also in the Miracle Mile shops.
The Sugar Factory–My brother and sister in law enjoyed this place for brunch. Their signature drinks run $36 each and smoke and bubble with dry ice! They are amazing to witness, and just as delicious to drink! The restaurant is always open and serves great food (Club Sandwich and Fries were perfect) and with reasonable prices! It’s adjacent to the store that will quench anyone’s sweet tooth!
Any suggestions on where to dine on the Strip to add for our next trip?
