Restaurant Week is now underway in Las Vegas, running (a little longer than a week) from June 3 to June 14. Nearly 240 restaurants are participating this year, offering prix-fixe menus and deals to benefit Three Square food bank. Here are some of the meals the City Cast team is looking forward to the most.
🥟 Din Tai Fung is an international chain, but they maintain a meticulous attention to detail and quality. The dumplings are made fresh in-house daily (you can peek through the glass windows into their dumpling room) and the wrappers are exquisitely thin. Don’t miss the chocolate (yes) xiao long bao dumplings for dessert on this menu.

🥩 There’s chatter that Bazaar Meat may not be at the Sahara much longer, so it’s a great excuse to pay a visit and try four courses for $100 for Restaurant Week. I’ve never been to Mayfair Supper Club ($100), so that’s on my list too, along with Superfrico ($120). Both have entertainment that comes with the meal.

🍸 I'm a new fan of Frankie's Uptown Bar. They have live music that's not overwhelming and I'm excited to try their uptown strolls in a four-course menu for $60. If their strolls are as good as their burgers then I'll be happy. Hussong's Cantina has some of the best salsas. They have two locations but the one in Boca Park has brunch ($20) too!

🥪 I like the mystery of Partage, which is serving a five-course tasting menu for $100. No dishes are listed. The meal is up to the chef’s discretion, based on seasonal ingredients. The steak sandwich at Peter Luger is usually around $36 by itself. So to get it with a side and three other courses during a $40 lunch special sounds like a steal.

🥥 One of course is Anima ($80 four-course dinner), which has a lot of buzz for its Italian-Spanish cuisine. Nittaya’s Secret Kitchen is my favorite Thai place in the city, hands down. They're doing a prefix lunch for $40 and the ginger green tea coconut creme brulee in the dessert course sounds delicious.
