  • SECRET PIZZA:  Secret Pizza is a really small restaurant located in Cosmopolitan. Trust me …it’s not easy to find, but you should try to find it because it serves some of the best pizza in Las Vegas, and it is  affordable family dinner—something that’s difficult to come by in Vegas.

  • MON AMI GABI (PARIS):. This restaurant, which serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, is one of the restaurants in Las Vegas with the best reviews. It serves French cuisine with view of the Bellagio fountain.  This is our favorite place for breakfast not only because of the view, but we just love the egg benedict here and the blueberry french toat is to die for.
  • GORDON RAMSAY HELL’S KITCHEN – LAS VEGAS (CAESARS PALACE):  Choose their prix fixe menu, which features their well-known beef Wellington.  Alternative would be the short rib which we tried and it so good. Other items we love here is the lobster risotto, and don’t forget the sticky toffee pudding.  It’s delicious!
  • Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill
  • BOUCHON (VENETIAN): We came here for breakfast and it is so good. The crab benedict, the cheese danish, chocolate croissant…all good!
  • BACCHANAL BUFFET (CAESARS PALACE): Buffets are a must-have when discussing the greatest food in Las Vegas on the strip. The largest buffet in buffet history is this one. There are more than 500 items in this magnificent feast.
  • WICKED SPOON BUFFET (COSMOPOLITON): Another iconic dining experience in Vegas that is almost as good as Bacchanal’s buffet on the Strip.
