Five “Sweet Spots” in Las Vegas
Where to go? What to eat? In a city of endless possibilities like Las Vegas, here are five places which definitely hit a sweet spot.
Taqueria Casa del Sabor: This westside Mexican eatery on Sahara Ave is the brick-and-mortar offshoot of popular food truck downtown. It’s a terrific spot to try an huarache (consisting of anoblong-shaped masa base, with refried beans, meat, cheese and salsa) anytime (it’s open 24/7).
Laguna Pool House and Kitchen
The Caesar Salad, with the scene- stealing Parmesan cracker, tastes as good it looks at this beautiful pool-adjacent spot on the sixth floor of Palms Place.
Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux: The pickle-on top hamburger sliders are perfectly soul-satisfying at this eatery at Harrah’s—it’s the Vegas outpost of the Baton Rouge-originated restaurant with a Louisiana-centric menu.
Krung Siam: The Cognac-marinated steak is an instant standout at this stylish Thai gem on Spring Mountain Rd—one of my favorite culinary streets in America. And, like Lamoon (another recommended Thai eatery on Spring Mountain), it’s open to 2:00am (yes!).
BRERA Osteria:
Located in the fabulously lit St. Mark’s Square in the Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian, this Vegas branch of the downtown L.A. Italian restaurant smartly offers an “everyday brunch” menu (until 4pm) with their distinctive take on the frittata. This healthy and heavenly textured creation brings together steamed spinach, Asiago cheese, San Marzano tomatoes, spinach, and stracciatella.
