Delmonico Steakhouse in Las Vegas Nevada is located in the Venetian Hotel/Casino on The Las Vegas Strip. This restaurant is owned by Multi Award and James Beard Award Wining Celebrity Chef, Restauranteur, Television Personality, Cookbook Author and MORE Emeril Lagasse.

This Steakhouse is open at lunch time and does offer a lunch menu. At the time of my visit they were offering a three course Prix Price Menu for $50. The Lunch Menu offers starters like gumbo, salads, and Emeril’s New Orleans’s Barbecue Shrimp. Lunch Entrees are things like a tenderloin salad or sandwich, a petite filet, fried chicken, king salmon, smash cheeseburger, and spinach spaghetti. They also offer various side dishes, desserts, and a section of Steakhouse Selections.

It’s very formal and rich looking. it’s filled with comfortable seating and interesting light fixtures.

They start you off with airy popovers and soft butter.

At any of the Emeril Restaurants my husband ALWAYS gets the gumbo and says that it is always very good.

On the lunch menu is a $26. Smashburger (price subject to change) that is very large and is served on HOUSE MADE Potato Brioche Bun. The burger is ribeye brisket with trim + wagyu + dry age and lettuce, tomato, red onion, bread and butter pickles, American Cheddar Cheese and Fry Sauce.

I got mine without cheese. I don’t know why but the smashburger without cheese came out much juicier than the burger with cheese………….

On the very ends some of the beef is very crispy but mine is very juicy and flavorful. For me this is two meals because it is very large but my husband ate all of his.

We also shared some truffle parmesan potato chips.

The chips are light and very thin. They are crisp and seem free of oil. They taste good…Cheesy and a bit truffle-ly. They are also a very large portion.

Emeril’s Banana Cream Pie is always amazing. I do think it is one of the best desserts that you can get anywhere in Vegas.

It’s also a very large portion.

The Gumbo and Banana Cream Pie are Always a Hit!

Flecha Cantina is a Modern Mexican Cusine type of restaurant by Actor and Las Vegas Resident Mark Wahlberg. The original location of Flecha Cantina is in Huntington Beach and the Las Vegas Location opened up mid September 2024 in Town Square. This restaurant offers many Mexican Favorites that you expect it to offer like guacamole, tacos, enchiladas, burritos, and fajitas. This restaurant also offers many dishes that are unique to most Mexican Restaurants like guacamole hummus, pistachio goat cheese, potato poblano soup with bacon, balsamic beet salad with puffed rice, and a salmon fajita salad. Some of the entree offerings here are braised short ribs, steak with chimichurri sauce, sea bass, rib eye, cochinta pibil and birria.

It’s a large restaurant with a large bar lounge, a bar, traditional tables, booths, and some outdoor cocktail tables.

Whatever you order they start you off with fresh salted chips and very good spicy salsa.

Today we tried the pistachio goat cheese with tamarind sauce. It came with fried crispy pita bread.

My GOSH it’s delicious! I wish you could taste some. It’s also a very large portion so we took some home for another time.

I tried the balsamic beet salad with achiote tequila chicken (beets, balsamic, spring mix, spinach, jicama, cucumber, carrot, cotija, almond, corn, puffed rice, queso fresco, scallions, tomato)

I’m not 100% sure if every ingredient is there but it is certainly delicious. It might be the most delicious salad I ever had at any Mexican Restaurant. The chicken is unusually moist and delicious too….This is a really great salad.

My husband tried the Chile Relleno with shrimp (poblano, jack and chihuahua cheeses, enchilada rojo sauce, crema blanca, picaeta)

Again everything is unusually delicious and the shrimp are prepared to perfection.

Everything was so great I felt the need to try a dessert and tried the fried ice cream (fried ice cream, whipped cream, berry sauce, lemon hart 151 rum)

It’s not in the description but the ice cream sits on a bowlful of some sort of cinnamon crunch cereal. Not my favorite fried ice cream out but it’s not bad either.

Flecha Cantina – Mostly Unusually Good!

Worth a Fork!

Aromi Italian Restaurant is located in the Summerlin area of Las Vegas NV. They offer most of your favorite Italian dishes but also offer a very large lunch menu with lots of choices.

They also started us off with toasted bars of rosemary bread and our choice of oil or butter (we picked oil).

I thought that the bread was good but the oil had something bitter in it that I found unappetizing….

I tried the lunch Branzino.

The fish was prepared reasonably well and did come out with a shattering crisp skin, fancy carrots and asparagus spears in a lemon butter caper sauce. It looks nice this way but the skin would have stayed crisp if the fish wasn’t placed skin side down.

My husband got the mushroom raviolis with short rib.

He said that the ravioli were made nicely. The short rib was good and succulent. Probably great for most people but fattier than I can eat.

That was a Little Taste of Aromi Italian Kitchen

Bazaar Mar is a Seafood Tapas Restaurant with Spanish Embellishment by Multi Award Wining and Michelin Stared Chef and Restauranteur Jose Andres and Team. The Las Vegas Location is located in The Shops At Crystals on the Las Vegas Strip.

There’s a large bar that sits in the middle of the restaurant.

At the end of the bar area is an open kitchen with today’s fresh flown in fish on display.

We start out with two River Trout Cones embellished with very light smoke, preserved lemon, and fresh dill.

My husband enjoys Jamon Iberico ham so he had a Jose’s Taco (Jamon Iberico De Bellota, Ossetna Caviar, gold leaf, and nori)

This one was hard to share but possibly was my favorite small bite of the evening.

This is listed under mini sandwiches. It’s called bagel and lox and is made with Russ & Daughters smoked salmon. It’s a hallow but very crisp fish shaped bread with seeds. It’s filled with the airiest cream cheese ever. The bread is topped with silky lox that is embellished with crisp capers and fresh dill.

This one was great too but also was my husband’s favorite small bite plate. It’s the Bluefin Tuna and fried quail egg. It’s in a soy dashi broth with nori.

It might not look so small but you roll up the fish around the quail egg to eat it and it turns into a small bite.

Next was our main plate. We shared a grilled branzino type fish. it sits in a donostiarra sauce (Spanish sauce possibly made with parsley, sherry vinegar, garlic, and paprika) and is topped with sliced garlic and sea salt.

I accidentally got a few bites with too much salt for my taste but most of the fish was very good and melted in the mouth.

We also shared an incredible plate of Japanese Baby Peaches (with stracciatella cheese, hazelnuts, something crunchy, and za’atar).

It’s so interesting and so different! It’s also sort of light and refreshing. You are suppose to get a little bit of everything on your spoon and try it that way.

I thought the perfect dessert for tonight was the Arroz Con Leche Merengon (Meringue, Arroz Con Leche Espuma (foam), blood orange granita, Thai Basil)

It was light and refreshing. I thought it went perfect with all the plates we tried.

Then it was somebody’s birthday so they gave us this and two complimentary sparkling wines.

Service was amazing and the food was just incredible!

Bazaar Mar is certainly Worth a Fork!

Servehzah Bottle Shop and Tap Room’s original location is in the Las Vegas Arts District and a second location is in North Las Vegas Nevada. Besides all kinds of craft beers they also offer food. Some of the offerings are shareable snacks like nachos, chips and dips, quesadillas. The specialty plates are the protein bowl and the street hot dog. They also offer tacos, burritos, desserts, and a few brunch dishes.

The North Las Vegas Location has an outdoor patio.

Inside is spacious with a bar and tables but there is no wait service. In the middle of the room is a refrigerator with many cans of beer. At the bar are many beer taps. They also have many big screen TVs across the room.

They also have these cards on the tables to remind you to order and pay at the bar.

My husband tried 4 tacos. (asada, chicken, shrimp, bang bang cauliflower)

They look good but taste is another story. All four arrive cold. Nothing was heated up. We don’t know but the fried ones (shrimp & cauliflower) have a breading that is wet, cold, and falling apart. Don’t know but they seem premade and frozen and didn’t thaw right?

I tried a specialty dish the protein bowl with chicken (that also arrived all cold).

The only parts that I can stomach are the avocado, chick peas, and fried onion. Something is also wrong with the dressing….It’s hard like cold cream cheese and doesn’t pour or taste edible.

I do NOT plan to ever return to Servehzah Bottle Shop & Tap Room nor do I recommend.

Bites of Europe is a European Style Restaurant and Bar in Las Vegas Nevada.

They offer European Style foods that you might be familiar with like pierogi, schnitzel, and cabbage rolls. They also offer some Other Foods that you might not expect like Norwegian Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs, Lunch Paninis, Pumpernickel Fries, and Fish and Chips.

We started out by sharing the Norwegian Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs.

They are milder softer deviled eggs embellished with dill and capers wrapped with smoked salmon. Good but I personally would have preferred the capers to be fried crisp instead of fried moist.

We also shared the fried potato and cheese pierogi.

These pierogi are fried very nicely and also come with very good caramelized onions. The pierogi dough here is whisper thin. Inside is different…. I don’t really taste the cheese but I can tell some dairy is mixed into the potato filling. My guess is that maybe a little bit of Farmer’s Cheese might have been used here?

For our main we share the Turkey and Rice Cabbage Rolls (no sour cream at my request). With mashed potatoes.

The sauce is much thicker and a lot less sweet than what I’m used to. Inside seems mostly like ground turkey…..tasty

We have to try the dessert of the day that was lemon semifreddo with peaches.

It was a nice sweet ending to a nice meal out.

Bramare is a fine dining Italian Inspired restaurant, cocktail, and wine bar located in Las Vegas Nevada only about ten minutes from the strip. They are open for dinner and late night dinner. Some of the food they offer are small plates that serve one to two people like onion focaccia with olive-caper spread, king salmon collar with Calabrian chile and agrodolce. A couple of the medium plates that serve around two to three people are things like wagyu hanger steak, and brick oven chicken. They also offer large plates that might serve four or more people such as porchetta with root vegetables and salsa verde, and twenty eight day dry aged Flannery rib steak. They also offer a variety of pastas, pizzas, and more.

It seems dark when you walk in and you notice that there are no visible windows inside.

Instead of candles they have these spiffy thin lanterns that light up the table surface really great.

We shared several small plates-

Funghi Fritti – with garlic and Chile sauce, pecorino cheese – the honshimeji mushrooms have a thin crisp coating and are delicious with all the flavors and a mild heat.

Fresh baked Onion Focaccia with olive caper dip – tasty

King Salmon Collar with Calabrian spicy cucumbers and agrodolce. The salmon is caramelized and MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH amazing and also delicious with interesting flavors. I do like the spicy cucumber salad but for my taste it is overpowering for the salmon so I ate them separate.

For our main we shared a medium plate of Beef Cheek Brasato with chili, verde fregola, and parsley salad.Tender beef and the parsley salad adds a nice fresh taste to it. LOTS of tasty firm fregola…This one can stretch to three servings.

With the beef cheek brasato we also had a small plate of broccolini.

This broccolini is really great!!!!! It’s a mix of crunchy and cooked with tasty flavors from black garlic cream, breadcrumbs, and pecorino cheese……

We were pretty full but decided to try hazelnut and pistachio gelato.

It was a nice sweet ending.
