The Hidden Gems of Sin City

Las Vegas is definitely a city where there is food everywhere you turn. There are super extravagant and off the wall restaurants that you can find in the world but what about the regular restaurants? Surely the locals can’t eat at these types’ of​ restaurants every day or else that would lead to​ a super expensive lifestyle.

Andiron Steak & Sea: Has been seen as one of the best places to get brunch in town. Andiron is recognized as one of Downtown Summerlin’s premier restaurants, and in this upscale new complex, that designation is impressive considering the number of good eateries to choose from. The team behind Andiron includes Kim Canteenwalla and Elizabeth Blau, long-time Las Vegas residents who’ve built restaurants all over the world. The elegantly designed restaurant is both beautiful and comfortable, providing the perfect backdrop to the wonderful food. The menu features a wide selection of quality steaks and seafood, an ice bar, and side dishes that perfectly complement the main entrees. A bar menu is also available and offers small plates like black truffle fries, crispy calamari, ​and sliders.

Ferraro’s: This is a restaurant is where locals go to have the most authentic Italian food next to going to Italy that is. This restaurant has the true motto of when you’re here your family because the owner goes out of his way to make sure that every single customer feels like they are at home. A Las Vegas favorite for almost 30 years, this family-owned restaurant is famous for its fine Italian cuisine created from time-honored family recipes. House-made sausages, family-recipe meatballs, ​and legendary Osso Buco are prepared from all-natural meats. Safe Harbor Certified seafood and freshly made pastas and sauces provide the foundation of Ferraro’s lunch, dinner and late-night menus. Many of its mouthwatering dishes can be made gluten-free​, and gluten-free pasta and pizzaare​s available for an additional charge. Whole wheat pasta is available, too, and all of the pastas are house-made every day. For dessert, be sure to try the classic Tiramisu; crepes with Nutella, Mascarpone, a hint of orange zest and gelato or the Cioccolatissimo, hazelnut chocolate cake, chocolate mousse, ice cream and yogurt.

é by José Andrés: This restaurant is a secret gem and is a restaurant within a restaurant which can in a sense make it a little harder to find. Seating just nine people and with no set menu, é by celebrity chef José Andrés crafts a modern, intricately detailed avant-garde multi-course meal that tells a story like only a Las Vegas restaurant can.
