When we were there in October 2011, we went for the Ellis Island special steak dinner twice. Yum.

At suppertime, the place was so crowded that there was a waiting list. The wait for tables for 2 was longer than for tables for 4+, so The Chief Of Staff introduced us to a nice couple -- complete strangers to us at the time -- & the 4 of us dined together sooner as a party of 4 than we could have as 2 parties of 2. Plus, the dinner conversation was pleasant & interesting.

Really cheap and surprisingly good - Ellis Island

This isn't the cheapest deal in town, but we've enjoyed it. Think 'Food TV' demonstration kitchen show followed by Las Vegas' best buffet- it's included along with beer and wine. http://www.themresort.com/studiob/

Thank you guys for recommendations, Jim I will definitely check that out as i have not been, and Alan that website you gave me is great. Im wondering if i should buy that member rewards book. Is it transferable? Wonder if i can give it to sister after my trip.

Please keep them coming, also looking for a good V Day recommendation. Dinner, and something romantic to do. Thanks again.

a good V Day recommendation. Dinner, and something romantic to do. Thanks again.

Go see Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian and dine at Bouchon Restaurant there.

We love New meixican Food ( everything is better with green chili) so we always go to Gardunos at the Palms. They have a sunday morning buffet that was very good

If you have a car available go to the M resort in Henderson, great Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner buffets. Their lunch and dinner buffets include, wine, beer, coffee latte, and gelato ice cream.
Second recommendation is The Ballagio buffet.

If you've got a car in Las Vegas, you might like this place. It's just a little hole-in-the-wall sized place, but the food is great.

We'll try it next time we go

 

[momeason]

Great ideas. We will be in Las Vegas in mid April and our anniversary is that week.

In the Planet Hollywood Miracle mile shops is a Brazilian restaurant called Pampas. They have amazing food.

Its OK but no where near as good as Texas de Brazil out a bit in Southpointe. Price is about the same at both.

It's actually in the Town Square area, not South Point. Here's the website.

A couple of years ago we were in Las Vegas for a Jimmy Buffet concert.
A business associate of mine recommended The Palm Restaurant which is in the Ceasar Shops It was great and the creamed spinach was awesome.
I had fish (Sea Bass) and my wife had a steak. One of the finer meals we have ever had out. Not on the cheap side however.

Whoops - you are correct! Got my areas mixed up I guess!

If you want to go to a romantic place for Valentine's Day, you know that you need a reservation, right? Its no different here than anywhere else...

If you have a car, my favorite romantic places are Hugo's Cellar in Four Queens Casino downtown. You could actually get here without a car. Don't let the casino turn you off, the food and service is wonderful, and ladies are given a long stem rose when they enter. Oh, and salad is included, and chocolate dipped fruits for dessert.

Now, with the car:

• Todds Unique, on Sunset and Green Valley in Henderson. Fabulous, reasonable prices
• Silverado Steakhouse in South Point (includes salad and potato in all entrees). Old time service
• Michael's in South Point, arguably the best gourmet restaurant in town. Excellent Service, wonderful plating, etc. Expect to spend $80-100. per person if you don't drink.
• Memphis BBQ, on Warm Springs near Eastern, wonderful BBQ, our fave

A note on The Palm...food is wonderful, and they usually have specials. They also have "businessmen's lunches" for +/- $25. which are a real value.

This is my local view, undoubtedly different from a tourist's, but I'm sure you'll find them all worthy, as well as a good value in their price range.

I did not know there was a Texas de Brazil in Las Vegas. I prefer the food there to Pampas.

I second that opinion.

Not sure if you've gone on your trip yet but I also HIGHLY recommend Studio B at The M for their buffet. Definitely my favorite buffet to visit plus it comes with beer and wine!

If you like sushi they have an AYCE suchi place called Sushi Mon. I believe there are two locations. I like the one that's NOT on Sahara Blvd.

Of course both of these locations are contingent on having a car. For something cheaper and still delicious check out Earl of Sandwich at Planet Hollywood!

have fun!

phenomenal view and dining

Foundation Room on top of Mandalay Bay. Also the outside lounge behind the bar for the best view of the strip from 40 floors up

Memphis Championship Barbecue is awesome, and I happen to love the Four Kegs, its just a bar, but their food is great! (It was on Diners, Drive Ins and Dives)

 

[Karen G]

Memphis Championship Barbecue is awesome,

We're going there tonight for my husband's birthday. Looking forward to the burnt ends.

 

[Fern Modena]

You just mentioned it to make me jealous. I want burnt ends! And ribs. And creamed corn. And red beans and rice. Or maybe I'll skip all of that and go on the weekend, for their Country Breakfast. You know it overlaps lunch from 11 AM to 2 PM, right?

An interesting casual lunch place if you are in the Henderson area is Bread and Butter. It is a bakery/cafe. The owner is always present, and there are at least three bakers, and it is a little place. He makes wonderful waffles, peanut butter and jelly brioche, croissants, malasadas, muffalatas, salads, and various specials. The restaurant has an active Facebook presence, and every weekend he seems to have a different theme (he has "808 weekends," which is where the malasadas came from, New Orleans weekends, Running Rebels weekends, and more).

Karen, if you are reading, it is right behind Osaka on Eastern just north of Sunridge Heights.
