A5 Philly Cheesesteak
Kenna P.

TL;DR: A feast for the senses with stunning design, standout visuals, and exceptional service. Eats: Noting we visited opening night and did the Bazaar Tasting Menu. Overall, the food was very good, especially the ribeye and buttered potato purée. That said, I think my expectations may have been too high because while everything was tasty and beautifully presented, nothing ended up being especially memorable flavor-wise. Service: FANTASTIC service. Everyone was fun, friendly, genuinely helpful, and impressively seamless for opening night. It honestly felt like watching a performance. Atmosphere: The space itself is striking and clearly thoughtfully designed. Our table sat right at the intersection of the bar + kitchen though, so between the movement, music, lighting, and nonstop activity, it felt extraordinarily immersive and exciting, but also overstimulating by the end of the night. That's actually what I remember most now since this review has been in my drafts for a while. Overall: If you love high-energy dining experiences with incredible aesthetics and top-tier hospitality, this place absolutely delivers. Very on-brand for Vegas.

Came here for a work dinner - the flavors were fantastic and every item was texturally complex. I really enjoyed the silky, buttery mashed potatoes, juicy steak, addicting roasted peppers, tomato tartare (vegetarian alternative to beef tartare), and crispy chicharron cracker with airy wasabi dip. Desserts were fabulous: cold strawberry donuts, earl gray financier, and goat cheese basque cheesecake with hazelnut was tremendous!!!!

Such a great experience. Everything was so rich so the small portion size was perfect to just get a taste. I personally loved the bread that accompanied the tartar and the a5 Philly cheesesteak was decadent

Went here last weekend with a group of 12, they put us in a private room in the back. Last time I came to bazaar meats was several years back at an off strip location, so this newly renovated place inside Venetian was a nice touch. We each got the deluxe tasting menu, including someone in our group that was vegan - which they were able to accommodate. Ordered martini service and several bottles of wines. Overall enjoyed our meal, our waiter was awesome. However I'm subtracting a point because we did not appreciate the somm's attitude - just negative overall, appeared disgruntled, not a single smile, didn't come by often to fill our glasses. Just overall a huge disappointment. Food was on point.

Jamón Ibérico de Bellota

The wife and I had dined at Bazaar Meat at its previous Sahara location on several occasions, but hadn't tried it since its move over to the Palazzo until last Sunday night. Bazaar Meat is a popular spot and we hadn't planned our night out much in advance, so we felt a bit fortunate to snag a reservation for 5PM as it opened for service. We arrived a few minutes early for our reservation and were immediately checked in, then guided to our table promptly at 5. The "new" Bazaar Meat looks nothing like its previous location. From the entrance to the bar and main dining room, the layout and design seemed far more upscale, cohesive, intentional, and better lit compared to the sprawling, somewhat hodge podge, layout in Sahara. Aesthetics aside, the most important question to me is did the same high-end, amazingly well-conceived and well-executed, delicious food make the move over to the Palazzo? The answer was a resounding "yes"! In the interests of a fair comparison, we kept it simple by opting for the Jose's Ultimate Experience tasting menu ($295) with wine pairings ($300). Jamón Ibérico de Bellota -- Sliced tableside Marinated `Ferran Adriá' Olives -- Signature Caviar Cone Cotton Candy Foie Gras -- Still great after all these years Smoke & Ice Oysters -- Great oysters, but use of smoke is tired "The Classic" Beef Tartare 'Not Your Everyday' Caprese Salad Gazpacho -- Loved it. Tasted exactly like the one I make out of Jose Andres' Made in Spain cookbook The Bazaar "Caesar" Salad -- Fine, but least exciting bite of the meal Bison Buffalo Style -- Good, but probably second least exciting bite Japanese A5 Wagyu Beef Ribeye Steak Chuleton, Washugyu -- I liked this more than the A5 Setas al Ajillo Buttered Potato Purée -- Robuchon-style pomme puree Tarta de Queso -- I love Basque cheesecake The Good: Every bite of food was exceedingly well-conceived and executed with precision. Obviously, we had dishes we preferred over others, but everything was enjoyable and satisfying. All elements of service were impeccable. Every member of the service team that touched our table was friendly and attentive. The service captain did an excellent job ensuring proper pacing. We never felt rushed nor did we feel like we were waiting for the next course. The Bad: Nothing came remotely close to being "bad". That said, I do think Bazaar Meat's food offerings, both on the regular menu and especially on the tasting menus, have gone largely unchanged since the restaurant's inception and could use a serious refresh. Signature items are signatures for a reason. However, it's a bit of shame when an innovative restaurant like Bazaar Meat with a talented kitchen staff continue on the daily to serve up the "greatest hits" especially on a tasting menu and seemingly forget what made Bazaar Meat a destination dining must...inventive, innovative, exceptionally executed, whimsical, yet still delicious food. For me, one of the biggest draws of ordering tasting menus is that they frequently offer items not available on the regular menu. This isn't the case at Bazaar Meat. The Ugly: I felt the cost for the wine pairing was excessive and I didn't feel like I received anything close to good value. Don't get me wrong, I thought all six wines (3-4 oz pours) we received were enjoyable and paired nicely with the corresponding food courses. I appreciated that the somm took the time to introduce each wine and discuss his thought processes behind the pairing. While I certainly wasn't expecting pours of DRC, I felt the whole of the pairing exceeded the sum of its individual wines and didn't command its price which actually cost more than our Jose's Ultimate Tasting Menu itself. In summation, Bazaar Meat is as good as ever. The new location in the Palazzo is a much better fit. I love Bazaar Meat and I truly think it's one of Las Vegas' finest restaurants regardless of genre. That said, until there's a substantive refresh to its menu, I probably won't be returning. However, if you've never been to Bazaar Meat, then you really need to go...just skip the wine pairing.

I have many fond memories while dining at Bazaar in BH and was so disappointed when they announced its closure in 2020. Was thrilled they moved into the Venetian/Palazzo hotel as we could simply walk to dinner from our hotel room. The one bite I have been craving all these years was Chef Andrés take on a Philly cheesesteak. I used to eat 2-3 of these each time we dined at the original Bazaar. Started the meal with an ounce of ibérico jamón w/ an order of pà amb tomàquet (toasted tomato bread). Both were awesome and was the perfect amount for our party of 5. This was even more special as they slice the jamón table side. What's nice is that everyone can order a little of something as most snacks were 1pc/order. Won't go into detail but everything was as good as I remember it being. For the entree we opted for the Rosewood steak which was ~2lbs and was more than enough for us as not everyone was a huge steak eater. All of the sides were also delicious (brussel sprout petals, brown butter cauliflower, sautéed mushrooms and Okinawa sweet potato). The only let down were the desserts which were just ok in my opinion. Service was spectacular and will definitely be back.

It was my birthday, and my husband had a surprise waiting for me--a reservation he had quietly made in advance. When we arrived, I realized he had gone all out. We had preordered "The Ultimate Tasting," a splurge we both hesitated about at first, but one that quickly turned into an unforgettable experience. From the moment we sat down, it felt like a celebration in motion. Course after course began arriving at our table, each one more indulgent than the last. Just when we thought we had a moment to pause, another dish would appear. We found ourselves laughing, trying to keep up with the rhythm of the meal, completely immersed in the abundance. By halfway through, I had already surrendered--thankfully, I had chosen a skirt with just enough stretch to gracefully accommodate my very happy (and very full) belly. What stood out just as much as the food was the service. It was attentive without being overwhelming, warm without being forced--exactly what you hope for on a night that feels special. Still riding that birthday high, we decided to keep the night going and stopped by to play a few games. Somehow, luck was on our side--we ended up winning $700. It felt almost too perfect, like the universe decided to top off the night with a little extra sparkle. If I had to give credit for setting the tone of such a joyful, memorable evening, I'd give that honor to this experience. It wasn't just dinner--it was the beginning of a birthday I won't forget.

Salted caramel with edible wrapper
Noel C.

Still one of my favorite restaurants in Vegas. The new location is Venetian is very nice, totally different feel but still beautiful. Food was amazing as always. I love the new beef tenderloin & foie dish! Can never go wrong with cotton candy foie gras. The Bahn mi was good, but I couldn't taste the foie. Service was good but definitely not the level I'm used to from Bazaar. Maybe cause it's still newer and they're working out the kinks.

Victor C.

The service was exceptional, truly among the best I have ever experienced. The restaurant itself is quiet, clean, and very pleasant, and the hospitality from Alex and the team was outstanding. I have dined at many fine dining restaurants, and the level of service here stands out as one of the best by far. As for the food, the pig dish was decent, but it felt overpriced for the quality. The chicken croquetas were average, while the pork skin was very good. Overall, the food was enjoyable, but not particularly memorable or extraordinary. The stewed beef was tender and good as well. Fyi the onion soup it's a shot only. The desserts were the highlight of the meal. They were absolutely excellent, with wonderful textures and flavor. The is a proper attire required.

setas al ajillo mushrooms; great flavor, but a little too soupy for a mushroom didn't work for me.
Sarah L.

Service was amazing. Our waiter was outstanding; super attentive, always checking in, and genuinely friendly. The vibe was loud, fun, and energetic. There is an attire requirement; nothing over the top, but it's worth reviewing before you go. We tried Jose's Ultimate Tasting. Would I recommend the restaurant? Absolutely, 100%. Would I recommend the tasting menu? Probably not, only because there were a few dishes I personally didn't enjoy. We started with the jamón. It's a small dish, but the flavor and tenderness were incredible, honestly perfection. The marinated olives came next. The modern olives were fun and playful with popped in your mouth, but the traditional olives were just okay, tasted like it came from a jar. The caviar cone was another really well-executed dish. The caviar was delicious and paired perfectly with the crispy cone. Cotton Candy Foie Gras was a wow moment, savory, rich foie gras balanced with the sweetness of the cotton candy. Playful but done really well. The Smoke and Ice oysters had a fun presentation, but I didn't love the apple mignonette air. It overpowered the oysters for me. The gazpacho had another melt-in-your-mouth tender meat that was incredibly delicious. The Caesar salad wasn't a favorite. The jamón crisp had a slightly burnt taste that I didn't love, and the dressing felt pretty average; nothing unique or memorable. The bison buffalo-style dish also didn't work for me. The flavors were overpowering and just didn't come together. The classic beef tartare was so good. The tartare was fresh and flavorful, and the roll served with it was delicious. The sweetness of the roll actually paired nicely, but I personally prefer a crispy component with tartare. It almost felt like baguette was swapped for Parker rolls, which slightly downgraded the delicacy of the dish. The ribeye was really good; just a solid, delicious steak. Nothing particularly special, but very well cooked. The Japanese A5 Wagyu was amazing. Unbelievably tender and literally melts in your mouth. Even the simple side salad paired perfectly with the richness of the beef. The setas al ajillo mushrooms were good with great flavor, but a little too soupy for a mushroom side. The buttered potato purée was rich, creamy, and indulgent; perfect with the steak. For dessert, the tarta de queso didn't stand out to me. It felt like the meal didn't end with the same excitement it started with. However, we received a complimentary anniversary cake that was delicious. The outer layer was somewhere between light whipped cream and marshmallow, and the inside had a strawberry cake flavor. That's something I would definitely order again. Overall, I would absolutely come back and just order my favorite dishes next time.

Tasting Menu ($215/pp) as of Feb2026
Eid F.

The service and ambience were perfect. Zero complaints... they went above and beyond to make our time there relaxing and comfortable. This was particularly important because we were there for almost 3 hours. I understand we are always in a rush and need to take our time and enjoy the experience, the people we are with, and the food we are trying but the duration between each small bite of food was wayyy tooo long. The flan at the end was the largest portioned item and was worth the wait. The Chicharón was terrible... sponge and stale taste... not crunchy or seasoned... without the foam/greek yogurt cremé it was almost inedible. Cocktails were great and servers made sure our glasses were always filled. Would I return? Not for the tasting menu.

Salt Air Margarita
Michael R.

A truly great meal that was enjoyed by my party of 3 on a recent Sunday evening at Bazaar Meat. Great location, having stayed in the same resort. Service was excellent-friendly, professional and attentive. I enjoyed not one but two Salt Air Margaritas-a really interesting take on a classic. A couple of good appetizers, highlighted by the shrimp cocktail. Caesar salad was a good one to split amongst the table. We shared a 32 oz (meats served by the pound) Rosewood Ribeye-seasoned so well and cooked exactly as ordered-2 of us are medium well fans and 1 medium. Sides were solid-sweet potatoes and leeks. Deserts were a great way to end the meal-Chocolate Hazelnut Mousse and Coconut ice cream. The mousse was a perfect texture. A meal worth it in every way-a treat and great version of a classic steakhouse, with the creativity of a great chef and team!

Connie Y.

Omakase of meat?!! YES!!! If you love steak then this is the place. New restaurant that moved to the Palazzo from the Sahara casino. They have a delicious coursed meal but we opted for ala cart cause we were still full from lunch. We got the beef tartar, the ribeye, cauliflower, and drinks. The service was amazing! We loved this restaurant and all the wonderful dishes. We will definitely be back. Happy Yelping!

As someone who loves all things quirky and unusual, The Golden Tiki has always been right up my alley. When a friend came into town and wanted to celebrate her boyfriend's birthday, I thought it would be the perfect place to kick off our evening. I was able to make an online reservation just a couple of days in advance, which was quick and painless. What I didn't realize was that they offer a weekday happy hour and live music! We were seated in "Bull***t Corner," which turned out to be the perfect spot. We had a great view of both the bar and the entertainment, making for a lively and entertaining atmosphere. Also, can't forget to mention the service. The hosts were fun but our actual server was absolutely hysterical and fit right in with the fun. She kept us laughing throughout our visit, while also being incredibly attentive. Despite the busy atmosphere, she made sure our drinks were flowing, checked on us regularly, and made sure everything was taken care of. It's not often you find someone who can be both entertaining and genuinely great at their job, but she pulled it off effortlessly. Our guests were genuinely impressed, and everyone had a fantastic time. The drinks were excellent as always--I honestly don't think I've ever had a bad cocktail here. I haven't had the chance to try their food yet, and we decided to stick with a few drinks since we already had dinner reservations elsewhere, but after this visit, I definitely plan on coming back on a weeknight to order from the food menu. If you're looking for a fun, unique Vegas experience with great drinks, and plenty of personality, The Golden Tiki is always a solid choice.

We visited the Vault at Bellagio on Friday, June 19th with a 9:30pm reservation for two…read more This was our first time visiting this establishment, and it is still a relatively unknown speakeasy. Sure, it is known; however, it was surprisingly not that busy for a Friday. We were seated at a shell like booth and this space between the back side of the Players Club and the Cash cage, is a lovely and elegant place. Is it expensive? yes. Most other fine establishments are also expensive in Vegas. It is what it has become. Is that good? Probably not; however, it does give you the opportunity to experience something unique and special. Although we had one server, the servers worked very well together throughout our 90 minutes here and really team assisted with each other. Between the two of us, we had three drinks. You can page through the very detailed menu, and I decided to have the Passion's Serenade drink, which was a glass partially frozen with a coconut and passionfruit puree and then also had some chocolate rum, vanilla and fresno chili. It was a delicious drink, and actually was a great "sit back and wait" drink, because it took a while for the frozen portion to melt. The experience comes with some complimentary bar snacks and then some complimentary mini jello shots on the way out. The check is presented in an exquisite "Vault" Type of book. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would return again in the future. Expect drink prices to range from about $30 to $70, with some even higher for the "market price" drinks.

The highlight of this evening was this hidden speakeasy cocktail bar inside the Bellagio!…read more Paisley greeted us as we entered The Vault and let us know that without a reservation we only had the option of seats at the bar. We've have awesome experiences watching bartenders before AND we were determined to stay so we happily agreed. Paisley was a delight to chat with as we waited for only 10 minutes while seats opened up for us at the bar. I also got to check out the restroom, which boasts a high tech toilet with automated opening/flushing and a heated seat! We had the pleasure of meeting Michael our bartender and Yesi the bartender apprentice, and regulars Bill and Kim from Texas on one side of us, and Mario from California on the other as we spent the next hour and half savoring one luxury cocktail each and some complimentary snacks (seasoned pistachio nuts, cheesy crackers, and a little amazing bite that I can't remember the ingredients of). Welcome complimentary drinks: "Key to my heart" -- fun little rum drinks to start off with served in a spherical black case surrounded by dry ice! (See video). A bit sweet for my taste but tasty and just a little shot's worth (to be sipped). Cocktails: La Vie En Rose: (5/5) Rose infused gin, house made strawberry infused sweet vermouth, aperol, orange essence. Gorgeous spherical ice cube with a real flower frozen inside). Described as a summer Negroni. I chose it because I love Negronis and am always up for trying a variation on a classic like that. The Fountain (5/5): bourbon, Punt e mes vermouth (55 year old bottle!), orange essence. The Vault's take on the classic Manhattan. Michael gave us a taste of the punt e mes sweet vermouth and it was sublime. Both spectacular cocktails were definitely made for sipping and savoring. And to top it off! Little espresso shots at the end....mmm delectable dessert my bites to complete a flawless experience. We'll be back! Michael is a masterful mixologist and Yesi is an awesome apprentice! Highly recommend!
