What are the best places to eat and drink in Las Vegas?

We had great dining experiences all around. On our first night, we at a Top of the World Restaurant at the Strat. The slowly rotating restaurant gave us a 360 degree of Vegas. Dinner, drinks and dessert were all delicious! Plus, we got to see some storms and lightning off in the distance, which was a fun sight to behold. For our second night, we booked a guaranteed window table at the Eiffel Tower restaurant in Paris Las Vegas resort. The table was a little small (I'm 6'4"), but the experience was a great one. Our server really took excellent care of us and the meal was delicious. We had an amuse bouche, split the cold salmon appetizer (smoky, buttery yumminess), and split the beef Wellington with potato gratin. They brought my husband a special dessert of chocolate mousse, but we also ordered the creme brûlée. Needless to say, we cleaned all the plates. Plus, we got to see the Bellagio water show 3 times while we were there. On our final night, we ate at SushiSamba in The Venetian. While the ambience was a bit loud and tables are close together, we had fun, got to chat with our neighbors about what they ordered and had a nice time all-around. Don't pass up the Wagyu Gyoza and the Robata Sea Bass with miso marinade. Both were out of this world. Thanks for the tip, Flytographer Ashley! ;)

Our photoshoot with Ashley was a fun experience and allowed us a chance to explore the Fremont experience and area. I booked 3 shows for the birthday weekend. We saw Awakening at Wynn, Ka (Cirque du Soleil) at MGM Grand, and Kelly Clarkson for her residency at Planet Hollywood (Bakkt Theatre). We really enjoyed all of these so much! The Sphere is a fun new addition to the skyline - it's neat to try and spot it as you are out and about on the strip.

We travelled to Las Vegas from Knoxville, TN, on Allegiant. The direct flight is around 4hrs and a nice way to get to Nevada for some fun. Planning ahead was the key to our great weekend. I used the OpenTable app to book several of our dining experiences. Always a good idea to be ahead of the game with those reservations. Flexibility and down-time is key. We were there during Hurricane Hilary and brought umbrellas with us. The temperature was nice and cool and we were more prepared than the average tourist to navigate the rain. We explored casinos and sights during the day, took an afternoon break/nap, then went back out for our evening activities. This was a nice pace for our time in Vegas.

What is the best tip for going on your honeymoon to Las Vegas?

Preplan all your dinner reservations as some are booked months in advance. If you are not totally into gambling and excessive drinking try to get out and see what nature has to offer. Park MGM is a smoke free hotel with mobile check in and out, TRUST me when I say this is amazing. The line ups for check in and out was insane and we got to skip it all.

Fat Tuesdays is a must if frozen drinks are your thing. They have locations all over the strip and downtown and you get discounted refills after you purchase a cup. It’s our favorite drinking spot in Vegas.

What are the best things to do in Las Vegas?

Take a day and do a kayaking tour! It’s the best way to really appreciate the beauty of Nevada and Arizona, while on the Colorado river. I recommend booking with Evolution Expeditions as they handle transportation, drinks, food, guides, etc., to make your trip the most enjoyable.

What is your best travel tip for Las Vegas?

If you’re going in the warmer months, make sure you pack lots of water. Especially if you’re planning on drinking alcohol. It’s very easy to get heat exhaustion which makes for a bad trip, so make sure to stay hydrated!

What are the best things to do in Las Vegas?

Love riding the High Roller, especially in the bar car when they are available. We also recommend taking a cab to Freemont Street for the light show and the zip line there. This trip we went to the Neon Museum for the first time, it had an interesting tour that included some history of the city and had some great photo opportunities with the neon signs.

People think The Strip is the only place to go in Vegas, but the suburbs are beautiful and so family-friendly. The drive is only 20 minutes on the highway and the views are unbeatable. Everything is a bit cheaper, too!
