Restaurant Week is not only one of the best things about June in Las Vegas, but also a much-needed fundraiser for Three Square food bank 👍 Dozens of restaurants participate, offering special value-driven prix fixe menus to showcase signature dishes. A few options immediately stand out 👀
🍸 Bar Boheme: $80 for a four-course dinner at James Trees’ new French restaurant with a Bavette steak among the four options for a main entree — no upcharge.
🐟 Bjork Caviar, a wholesaler with a sit-down tasting counter in the Arts District, has a three-course menu with its own brand of caviar atop hamachi, linguine, and a white chocolate panna cotta for $100.
🥟 Fugazzeta: Empanadas for an appetizer and dessert with an Argentinian pizza in between? I’m intrigued, especially for $30.
🍣 Kaiseki Yuzu: A four-course sushi menu at the chef’s discretion for $100, but it’s one of those places where everything is served with top-tier sourcing and preparation.
🥨 Millside Tavern in North Las Vegas has a $20 ‼️ lunch with pretzel bites (my weakness) as a choice of appetizer.
🦪 The Oyster Bar: The Sunset Station version of this seafood bar has three courses for $40: oysters and shrimp, a choice of clam chowder, and a plate of rice and beans. It’s weird enough to capture my attention, and I’m always down for Manhattan-style clam chowder, which is hard to find in Vegas.
🍕 Pizza at the Palms: $30 for a pizza, salad, and dessert. That’s not a bad price these days, especially at a casino. (I just spent more than $30 for a pizza by itself at a neighborhood spot.) The deal applies to pickup orders too.
🍝 The Pasta Shop in Henderson has two dinner options for $40 or $60. Either way, this is one of the most underrated Italian restaurants in the valley — and one that quietly supplies its own house-made pastas to other businesses.
🍨 RPM Italian: One of my favorite Strip restaurants has a $30 three-course lunch. I’m heading straight toward that toasted pistachio gelato for dessert.
🐠 Zaytinya: $60 for anything by José Andrés is worth it, but four courses at his new Mediterranean restaurant inside the Forum Shops seems like an especially good way to get familiar with the place.
Picks From the Rest of the City Cast Las Vegas Team
🦀 I’m most excited about Weera Thai — I love their OG location, but haven’t tried their Town Square outpost, which specializes in seafood. Sign me up for that crispy soft-shell crab in tamarind sauce! Plus, $30 for a three-course lunch and $50 for a four-course dinner is a steal.

🐮 My pick is Golden Steer. If you've never been, treat yourself to their menu-for-two for $120. The space and the food are a living part of Vegas' history! For dessert, add on something they set on fire for the full experience.

🥑 EDO Tapas is one of my all-time favorite restaurants and Restaurant Week gives me an excellent reason to revisit after far too long away. The $80 dinner is right up my alley. The first two courses include two items each — you don’t have to choose. Hello, jalapeño avocado gazpacho and short-rib taco with sushi rice, nori and gochujang aioli. I'm coming for ya!

📺 I'm surprised to see the new Netflix Bites on the list this year with a decent lunch menu for $40. Might be my excuse to visit this gimmicky restaurant that I wouldn't have otherwise. Also, the $60 dinner menu at Main St. Provisions is an insane deal! Shrimp cocktail, filet mignon, and sticky toffee pudding — sign me up!
