eating out

Where to go and what to do when eating out.

Michelin stars returned to Las Vegas in 2026 after 17 years away, and four restaurants took them. The buffet the city was built on is down to seven. What is worth eating now, where the locals go, and which famous names have closed.

We were looking at food, service, price, ambiance, facilities, and who else was eating there to come up with a list of favorite restaurants and it was difficult to choose between the many places available.

We decided to ask Kiwi Bentley, our New Jersey insider, as she is always out and about and never fails to know the latest news about restaurants, chefs, food, wine, food events, and wine tastings.
