Vegas restaurants on your To Try List?

Ones that you may be checking out during the upcoming M & G?

I am curious to try the new restaurant at Caesars, Searsucker, from Top Chef contestant Brian Malarkey. It's not open yet but due to open March 27, so I will be following the reviews. I was able to get 9:00 reservations for Wednesday night.

I also want to find a good restaurant at Wynn or Encore for Friday night after the strip stumble ends. Originally I was thinking SW Steakhouse, but not sure we'll want such a heavy meal after drinking all day!

Any suggestions?

Wasn't searsucker a suit or pans that sears sold years ago?

HHH, seersucker (diff spelling) is a cotton fabric. I always think of sailor suits when I hear the word seersucker!

Great thread Blaze...I'll keep an eye on this for more ideas.
So far I have a few that we are trying in April that we haven't been to.
Yardbird @ Venetian/Palazzo- husband loves chicken so thought he'd enjoy this place.
Canaletto @ Venetian/Palazzo- have reservations with a couple friends
Veranda @ Four Seasons- my birthday breakfast

I also want to try the new Bardot Brasserie at Aria. I hear their happy hour is phenomenal, also their brunch. Thinking of making Sunday morning reservations there and surprising my girlfriends with brunch.

Here is the Happy Hour menu - sounds great!

LaCave at Wynn/Encore is really good and reasonably priced! It has small plate items we share :)

Gwen- yourstarla was very happy with it, so I'm sure this will be a good place. :)

@Blase I definitely want to try Bardot, because Michael Mina. I loved that space when it was American Fish -- curious what they'll do with it in its new incarnation.

I'm trying out Bardot on April 6th with Mike and Ken. I usually like all of Michael Mina's restaurants.

I'm thinking of trying out Yardbird for a lunch on Tuesday or Wednesday since Gwen liked it so much.

Yes I've been studying the menu some more, I need to Google some things yet. The only thing I truly understand what it is the Le Steakburger! LOL Can't wait!

The Croque Madame that Blaze suggested is on the dinner menu. I've eaten these in the past at other restaurants, it's the French version of a yummy ham and cheese sandwich usually with a béchamel sauce with a fried egg on top of it. When there's no fried egg they call it a Croque Monsieur.

I've already planned to try Giada, e@Jaelo, Comme Ca, Tableau, La cave. I want to try Yardbird (never had fried chicken & waffles together), I always get a pastrami @ ZooZacrackers, fried rice and vegetables at Red 8.

@CPT if you do order Le Steakburger and it's any good, be sure to report on it in the meaty meat thread! We need a new "apex burger" now that Comme Ça is shutting down.

Ohhh that rice and veggies from Red 8 looks great. I love they are in to go containers...my husband is not very adventurous with food/restaurants but I'd love to order some stuff from Red 8 to go.

I always want to try Sinatra's at the Encore but never seem to make it there at the right time. Always seem to get there too early or too late!

Blase,
It's hard for me to tear myself away from the casino and "nice" meals are time-consuming LOL

I've stayed at Bellagio quite a few times (again for the M&G) and never made the effort to try something besides the cafe (last year I finally did try LeCirque).
I might try Michael Mina or Picasso this time. I eat where I play to use up food credit.

Oh I know, I've said plenty of times that "I ain't got time to eat" when I'm in Vegas... I call it the Gambling Diet!

Although I do find that when I go with these two girlfriends, as opposed to more die-hard degenerates like my mom, we do stop and smell the roses sometimes and actually eat nice meals, sit in lounges to people watch, etc. I like traveling with these girls because they help me slow down and save me money!!!

We ate at Pub 1842 yesterday. It was yummy. Might do Bardot for Happy Hour or Toms Urban at NYNY. We were going to Heritage Steakhouse tonight. But the Dumb Wisconsin game interferes.

I hope that Lago is open when we go in May and are staying at the Bellagio. It just says opening Spring 2015. Probably open the night we fly home.

Yeah they need to be more specific with their dates! HHH! At least Searsucker says opening March 27.

There are so many places I want to try but every time I go to Vegas it's like I'm on a diet because I'm gambling every second and eat maybe once a day! I know, it's ridiculous but that's what happens. When we brought my niece in November for her 21st birthday who is a total foodie we ate out at some delicious places and that was more eating than we've done in probably the last three or four trips combined. What can I say, I'm a gambling degenerate...

Same as me when I'm in Vegas... KC was the worst; I was lucky if I ate one meal a day! Two days the only food we ate was from the Diamond Lounge!

I was quite impressed by the "Wicked Spoon" buffet at Cosmo. It is very gourmet with a huge variety of foods that can fit anyone's taste's. I hope that they never change it.

That is too funny! All day dining at Diamond Lounge :smile-new:

Vegas has incredible restaurants, wine lists and beverage programs. Part of my excitement of going is the restaurants. On my list to try is Bardot and Yardbird...

I want to try those as well @hlaburg.

There are so many Vegas restaurants I've yet to try... One of the old school ones on my list is Casa di Amore. Would be a great place to try as a group. Sadly there was no room to fit this in on my April trip.

Is that the Italian restaurant that's off the strip? I think I saw pictures of it on Diana's blog. It looked tasty and had an old school feel to it.. Probably worth checking out.

And they offer limo service also. The food porn I have seen from there has looked incredible.

I've eaten there about 4 times so far and it's a great restaurant for large groups, they really shine when taking care of large parties. There's also usually a duo or trio entertaining. Gwen, myself and some of our other friends have a favorite server there too, always ask to sit at Brad's table! I'm not sure I would go off strip to eat there if I was with a small party however since there's comparable food at similar prices on the strip but at restaurants that don't excel with large groups of people. Hopefully that makes sense, LOL!

I get it @Evoni... I think it's all about the experience when you're with a larger group.

Casa Di Amore must be doing something right to be in business all these years... Sounds like an old school treat.
