Swinging Tomahawk Ribeye
Vegas isn’t complete without a decadent steak.

Linguini Frutti di Mare
The linguini frutti di mare is a staple at Mercato Della Pescheria as it is all-encompassing in terms of the seafood that it utilizes from the crudo bar. Homemade pasta is tossed with black tiger shrimp, mussels, Manila clams, and calamari in a rich lobster sauce.
Miso-Glazed Chilean Sea Bass with Wok Vegetables
TAO Asian Bistro complements its "vibe dining" venue with delicious dishes from China, Japan, and Thailand, and the miso-glazed Chilean sea bass with wok vegetables is a standout option in a sea of choice. The fish is beautifully seared with tender, flaky flesh beneath a beautiful miso glaze served on a bed of traditional vegetables. This is a light bite with plenty of flavor, certain to delight any seafood connoisseur.
Chicken 'N' Watermelon 'N' Waffles
Sample some Southern home-style hospitality at Yardbird Southern Table & Bar with a delicious helping of chicken 'n' watermelon 'n' waffles. With honey hot sauce, chilled spiced watermelon, Vermont sharp cheddar cheese waffles, and bourbon maple syrup, this is an incredible taste sensation packed with Southern soul. Yardbird's American Humane Association Certified chicken is 100% natural and dredged in a secret blend of spices and flour before deep-frying.
Banana Cream Pie
Delmonico Steakhouse is master chef Emeril Lagasse's spin on the classic American steakhouse and aims to make dinner with friends a celebration. After dining on sumptuous steak, what better way to celebrate than with Emeril's signature banana cream pie, the most requested dessert on the menu? The pie includes three pounds of bananas (that’s 11 whole fruits) and a nontraditional custard filling complemented by caramel sauce, chocolate shavings, and whipped cream.
Moqueca Mista

With so many traditional homemade Italian treats to tempt you, it’s difficult to know where to start, but you can’t go wrong with the bakery’s now-famous classic cannoli.
