Eat Around the World Without Leaving Las Vegas

This week on Vegas Revealed...

Can you eat your way around the world without leaving Las Vegas? We visit Mediterranean grills, French-inspired brasseries, Italian neighborhood restaurants, a Caribbean steakhouse, Asian dining hotspots, celebrity-chef destinations and one of Downtown Summerlin’s favorite Mexican restaurants.

This all-food edition is designed for anyone searching for the best restaurants in Las Vegas, where locals eat, new Las Vegas restaurants and dining experiences worth adding to a Vegas travel itinerary.

We begin in the Downtown Las Vegas Arts District at Meráki Greek Grill, a fast-casual Mediterranean restaurant serving fresh Greek food and its signature Athenian chicken sandwich wrapped in crisp filo dough. The growing local brand also serves Henderson from its St. Rose Parkway location.

Near the Las Vegas Strip and Sphere, Brasseria by EDO brings European brasserie dining to Paradise Road with tableside steak tartare, a roaming gin-and-tonic cart and meats cooked over smoky heat in a Mibrasa oven.

Italian food takes us across the Las Vegas Valley. Celebrity chef Fabio Viviani shares the neighborhood philosophy behind his Summerlin restaurant, while Carlo’s Bakery at The Venetian keeps Buddy Valastro’s famous cakes and pastries at the center of the Strip. We also visit a family-run Italian restaurant serving filled pastas, chicken Marsala, tiramisu and recipes rooted in generations of tradition.

At Wynn Las Vegas, chef Sarah Thompson of Casa Playa represents the city’s award-winning culinary talent after earning one of the restaurant industry’s highest honors. Then we head to SAHARA Las Vegas, where James Beard Award winner Kwame Onwuachi introduces Maroon, the Strip’s first Caribbean steakhouse and one of the most talked-about new restaurants in Las Vegas.

The Michelin Guide is also evaluating restaurants across Las Vegas and the Southwest. Recognition is not limited to luxury dining. Consistency, ingredients, technique and personality matter at every price level, from casual neighborhood restaurants to fine-dining destinations.

Celebrity-chef dining continues at Meril inside M Resort Spa Casino, Emeril Lagasse’s first Las Vegas restaurant away from the Strip. Emeril challenges us to try his head-on Gulf barbecue shrimp, one of the restaurant’s signature dishes. We also explore Gordon Ramsay’s growing Las Vegas restaurant collection, including Hell’s Kitchen and Gordon Ramsay Burger.

Asian dining takes us to China Mama, a Las Vegas favorite known for handmade dumplings, noodles and all-day dim sum. In Chinatown along Spring Mountain Road, CROAK Thai Food Socialize delivers dramatic tableside presentations, including Thai-style guacamole and fiery surf-and-turf khao soi with American Wagyu and crab.

The mocktail movement is reshaping Las Vegas nightlife too. We look at zero-proof cocktails that deliver the flavor, presentation and social experience of a traditional drink without alcohol, including a refreshing creation served at Fontainebleau Las Vegas.

Finally, we visit Pancho’s Mexican Restaurant in Downtown Summerlin for traditional Mexican dishes, garlic-cream shrimp and popular margaritas available to enjoy at the restaurant or take home.

From celebrity chefs and Michelin-recognized talent to Chinatown dining, Downtown Las Vegas restaurants and neighborhood favorites, this episode is your guide to eating around the world in the Las Vegas Valley.
