Top Best American Restaurants in Las Vegas

"Opened by legendary “Rock ‘n’ Roll Chef” Kerry Simon in 2014, this cozy and witty restaurant is considered almost solely responsible for revving up the now buzzy dining scene in Downtown Las Vegas. Housed in a former flophouse, Carson Kitchen later got a boost in the form of an expansion: a rooftop bar and lounge. The thoroughly urbane setting is perfect for those who prefer a laidback convo, cocktails, and shareable plates to a nightclub."

"The small, charming Carson Kitchen in Downtown Las Vegas was among the first restaurants to take root in the on-going efforts to transform the downtown area in a chic, trendy place to hang out. So far, those efforts have been very successful. Carson Kitchen's quiet ambiance is wonderful for a meal when you'd like to have a conversation and a glass of great wine."

"Interpreting American comfort foods using locally sourced is not easy, but SOMEHOW Carson Kitchen does and comes up with dishes like the Bacon Jam topped with baked brie."

"Another Gordon Ramsay creation, the Pineapple Carpaccio at Hell’s Kitchen, is an unusual yet impressive dessert. Be wowed by a foaming cloud of liquid nitrogen that gives way to thinly sliced pineapple served with coconut sorbet, passionfruit, and coriander. If you’re more of a traditionalist and would rather skip the food show, opt for the Coconut Three Ways, which comprises coconut sorbet, passion fruit caramel, and coconut cake."

"Gordon Ramsay’s TV show Hell’s Kitchen was such a huge success that Chef Ramsay decided to open a restaurant of the same name here in Las Vegas. The eatery draws inspiration from t..."

"Get your brunch on at YardBird, one of the best Southern food restaurants outside of the southern US. At Yardbird you’ll find many of your favorite Southern dishes, such as buttermilk biscuits, cheesy grits, fried chicken and waffles, deviled eggs, peach cobbler, and baked macaroni and cheese. Brunch at Yardbird is available on Saturday and Sunday from 10 AM to 4 PM."

"If you're a fan of Southern food, check out Yardbird Southern Table & Bar, one of the places for the best vegan in Nevada. Yardbird serves up unforgettably good comfort food in the..."

"Recommended by a friend who's palette i really trust, we went to dinner here. Let me just say, after eating there if I lived in Vegas I'd visit there at least…”more"

"The Peppermill Fireside Lounge is as Vegas as Vegas gets: With an over the top, neon-lit, flaming pool, plush romantic booths, and fabulous food. Its central location on the Strip, inside Somerset Shopping Center, means that it is easily accessible no matter where you are staying, so treat yourself with a truly Vegas breakfast. Indulge with one of their huge omelets with hash browns, English muffins, toast or a hot lemon-cranberry or blueberry muffin, or everyone's favorite - Munches' breakfast with sautéed peppers, onions, linguica sausage, tomatoes and mushrooms, served with three eggs, cheddar and Jack cheese, with toast or an English muffin."

"Hash House A Go Go isn’t the only restaurant that serves up a hearty breakfast. Another one of my favorite breakfast/brunch spots is the Peppermill Restaurant, located on the north side of the Strip between Encore and The STRAT. Peppermill’s portion size is enormous, with one meal often being enough to satisfy two diners."

"An undulating ceiling fashioned of tropical wood reinforces the clean, modern aesthetic of this celebrity haven. Convenient to the Bellagio casino, FIX serves as a vantage point for foot traffic, and fame-kissed personalities stake out tables in order to check out the action and to partake of terrific food served in the boisterous space. While they absorb the scene, they dine on oysters, sushi, homemade pastas, and grilled steaks."

"If you watch sports, the last thing you want to see is a huge tab at the end of a game. You can remedy that with the large portions at TAP Vegas and with the game day specials on beer and appetizers. If you aren't that hungry, split the Captan's Burger with a couple of people."

"This dog-friendly Downtown Summerlin patio is home to gastropub fare including crispy buffalo cauliflower, bacon cheddar tots and an every-day happy hour that includes prosciutto and pineapple flatbread, street tacos plus $5 wine and beer. Craft beer is the focus here, but cocktails with fresh ingredients, like lavender and blackberries, are a great choice for outdoor dining."

"With a mission of applying a global approach to traditional American dishes, Sparrow + Wolf embodies the playful, unexpected ethos of Las Vegas. The Chinatown restaurant is notably helmed by chef Brian Howard, a longtime fixture on the Las Vegas restaurant scene who cut his teeth working at restaurants on the Strip before bringing his talent to a less touristy neighborhood. Here, his creativity comes alive in the form of everything from udon noodle bolognese to a miso peanut butter banana split topped with black sesame chocolate sauce."

"This Spring Mountain Road hideaway is worth a drive from the Strip. Artsy interiors include a mural of a sparrow and a wolf (natch) behind the bar, setting the stage for a creative and diverse menu of contemporary American dishes. The beef cheek and bone marrow dumplings are a vision, or at least will be once they're unveiled from their layer of foamy goodness."

"Sparrow + Wolf took up shop just off the Strip as a neighborhood cookery that’s way better than your neighbor’s cooking. It easily makes our best restaurants in Las Vegas list. Eye-catching food, unique ingredients, tasteful pairings, and gorgeous platings set Sparrow + Wolf apart."

"Harry’s Bar in Venice, Italy, is one of the world’s most-iconic culinary destinations, but Giuseppe Cipriani’s touch extends to cities around the world, including at Cipriani inside the Wynn. A mixed salad of artichoke and avocado is tented with two thick cuts of sliced Parmesan, and the legendary baked tagliolini with ham, appears under a layer of bubbly cheese with browned edges. Prepare for a cheese pull extraordinaire."

"Stepping into Cipriani Las Vegas feels like stepping onto a beautiful yacht. A little nautical and a lot jetsetter-y, with glossy walnut and chrome and terrazzo flooring, the space resembles other Michele Bonan–designed Cipriani restaurants in Miami, Ibiza, and Mexico City. But its own color palette—royal blue and orange—are exclusive to the Vegas location."
