The Restaurant Week Dinner Menu –

Whatever you order they start you off with their house made baguette and butter.

Course one –

Warm Pistachio Goat Cheese with onion confit jam, honey, and pistachios…WOW! This is BOMBalicious……Who knew?

Escargot – snails, parsley, butter, shallots, garlic – my husband enjoyed this and some of the warm pistachio goat cheese.

Course two –

Sole Meunière – with brown butter, garlic, capers, lemon, and parsley. Fingerling potatoes. The fish seemed fresh as can be and was the lightest sole meunière I ever had anywhere.

Duck with green beans and mustard sauce – I heard that this was good.

Course Three

Chocolate mousse

Chocolate liégeois – chocolate and vanilla ice cream with house made whipped cream and ganache. Both desserts were delicious but the favorite was the chocolate liegeois.

Everything above is also on the regular dinner menu.

Restaurant Week was extended to June 21 2024 for Oh La La French Bistro.

The Market Grill Cafe is a full service Greek, Italian, Mediterranean Restaurant located in the Centennial Area of Las Vegas Nevada. This is a family owned and ran restaurant that has been voted “Best of Las Vegas” for several years. The Proprietors are Joe and Rhonda Pierro and one is Greek and the other is Italian so the restaurant is a spin on what they know.

Some of the appetizers they offer are saganaki (flaming cheese), tabouli, and baba ganoush. They also offer soups and salads, Greek favorites like moussaka (beef, eggplant, potato casserole), pastitsio (beef macaroni pie), spanakopita (spinach and cheese pastry). They also offer a list of pastas, and offer several entrees including three lamb dishes. Their signature award wining dish is their pomegranate chicken (I’ll describe it in a bit). They also offer a variety of desserts.

You can dine on the patio for outdoor dining but most of the seating is inside.

At night they have live music.

Here’s the saganaki.

They set it in fire before it reaches your table. The Greek cheese is flamed with lemon and brandy and comes with lots of flat pita breads.

This is delicious!

Entrees come with small Greek Salads.

For my main I had to try the Pomegranate Chicken.

This is 24 hour marinated chicken (herbs & pomegranate juice) that was grilled and sliced and topped with pomegranate glaze and crushed walnuts. This also comes with a side of hummus, pita bread, and fluffy basmati rice. The chicken is moist and tasty with a little zing from the pomegranate. I’d get this again.

My husband tried the other dish I was thinking about getting….The white fish scallopini.

The orzo that it comes with is very good but the fish isn’t so great. It’s edible but taste like from frozen fish from any of our local supermarkets and is slightly over cooked. But hey a lot of restaurants don’t do fish as well as their other dishes in the southwest.

Market Grille Cafe is Worth a Try!

Poke Sushitto is a casual restaurant in North Las Vegas Nevada that offers Poke Bowls and burritos. You can order sushi bowls or sushi burritos “Chipotle Style.” For beverages they offer fountain drinks, bottled water, bubble tea, Asian Fruit Drinks, Asian Teas, and Pokka Coffee. Kids meals are also offered and there are a few additional side orders. If you can’t make up your mind there also are a few suggested bowls.

If you order your way then you can order 2 or three protein bowls. The proteins I noticed were raw or baked salmon, crab, sweet or tempura shrimp, regular tuna, spicy tuna, scallops, chicken, and tofu. If you ordered a bowl you pick rice or salad or half rice and half salad as your base. They offer all kinds of vegetables and sauces and a few toppings.

I tried baked salmon with spicy tuna.

I asked for 1/2 brown rice and half salad…….I guess the girl couldn’t hear me and gave me all salad. For added vegetables I got carrots, cabbage, and corn. I also got crunchy fried strips, some ginger, scallions, yuzu miso sauce and cilantro. On the side I got a sweet soy type sauce, and sriracha mayo. Somehow it turned out flavorful and tasty.

My husband tried a three meat bowl.

I think it was mostly similar to what I got but it had tuna, shrimp, and salmon, pickled, radishes, sushi rice, and jalapeños. I forgot what sauces he went with but he also was surprised that it came out delicious! He also thought that the price was very reasonable for what he got!

Since it was very tasty and the fish seemed fresher that from a lot of neighborhood sushi places I have to say Poke Sushitto is Worth a Fork!

Esther’s Kitchen is a locally sourced Italian Cuisine Restaurant located in downtown Las Vegas Nevada in the Arts District. They made their own sourdough, breads, pastas, pizzas, and more. This restaurant recently moved from a smaller location next door. The restaurant is named after the chef’s aunt.

WOW! It’s at least triple the size of the old Esther’s.

Past the hostess desk are dining tables and a large bar with more tables. To the left of the hostess desk is part of the open kitchen where I can see they are making pasta.

This is the dining area and open kitchen by the entrance. You can’t see it in my photo but there is a smaller dining area to the left of this area. Wow it is really loud in here…not music either…just a lot of people in conversation.

We started out by sharing a smoked ocean trout toast.

The made-in-house toasted sourdough is very good and so is the creamy thick cream cheese. Silky fresh smoked Ocean Trout, sweet heirloom tomatoes, onion, and fresh herbs complete the toast.

I tried the Cauliflower Alla Romana because it sounded interesting and not too heavy (anchovy, chili, garlic, fried capers, parsley).

It’s different……..The cauliflower has a starchy coating but the cauliflower is almost raw. The pieces on the top are just hard and starchy. The bottom pieces have a lot of anchovy and maybe capers and some are too salty. This is far more filling than it looks. I brought a bunch home.

My husband ordered one of the dishes that they do best……They called it rigatoni (house. made) Carbonara (egg yolk, house made guanciale & peas….((not sure if it had peas in it?)))

Well whatever this pasta is my husband said that it was very good.

That was Brunch at the NEW Esther’s Kitchen.
