    Cocoa-Espresso NY Strip
    Will T.

    Had an Open Table reservation on a HOT 109 degree Wednesday evening. Nice small place, somewhat intimate indoor setting? Got seated right away and had a nice waiter go over the menu. Drinks: FINE, YOU?: It's an Old Fashioned and it was delicious. PIPER'S CHOICE: My wife likes her Espresso Martini creamy and a little bit on the sweeter side. This has more of a stiffer espresso forward taste which kinda put her off. Apps: CRISPY CHICKEN SKINS: Fried chicken skin with honey dip? Who knew that would work!? My wife and I loved it. "DEVIL'S" EGG: First time trying caviar and I think it pairs pretty well. BACON BURGER: My daughter finished it I'd say she like it! Main Course: BACON BURGER: My daughter got this and it was a thumbs up. No notes. COCOA-ESPRESSO NY STRIP: Nice sear crust with a perfect medium-rare. Great flavor with no burnt after-taste from the crust. SHORT RIB STEAK: The meat itself is very tender but with the pepperoncini it got my head scratching . When I think of pepperoncini I'm thinking of Italian subs or pizza? Does it work? I guess? They put the check inside a softcover novel which is pretty cool. In the pages were notes/comment from patrons. Could't help myself and got in on the fun!

    Deviled Eggs
    Kevin W.

    Small place, good music playing and it wasn't terribly loud in the dining area, which we appreciated. We could carry on a conversation at the table. The waitstaff were dressed very casual, jeans and t-shirt casual. Although the food is upscale, everything else about this place seems very casual diner like. We could even see most of the work going on in the small kitchen. Mostly shareable plates... Our table chose the deviled eggs with caviar - these were a hit! Dynamite shrimp, most at the table liked these, they were spicy and the flavor was decent, but I just felt like the sauce made the breading a bit soggy and it wasn't a favorite of mine. Pork Belly - This had a buffalo sauce on it, which I wasn't too excited about at first, but it worked better than I expected. Wish it was just a little crispier but it was tender and I enjoyed it. Oxtail risotto - this one had mixed reviews from the table, I really enjoyed it. The flavor was good. There's only a small amount of meat and it's shredded into the risotto. Overall the consistency was a little weird, very thick and almost sticky/dry, plus the dark color. They had a steak on the menu and the flavor was great, one of the pricier menu items but it was a good share. My wife ordered a burger without the bun. She said the patty was well over-cooked and so it was pretty dry. They don't offer gluten-free buns or bread - bummer. The service was generally prompt, but seemed uncoordinated at times. For example, it seemed our waitress was also handling a very large party outside on the patio, and randomly the hostess would bring us a drink refill (hostess stand was right beside our table). That's good in a way, they are all a team, but she also picked up my plate and silverware after only the first appetizer - mind you they bring everything out as it's ready, so don't expect the whole table to eat together, you are expected to share! When I asked if she could replace my silverware, she grabbed a fork and knife and handed to me, but they weren't rolled in a napkin or anything, just barehanded me some silverware... anyway, I thought that was odd. Overall, the food had some bright spots and perhaps worth a lunch if you are downtown. I probably wouldn't seek it out again, but I'm not mad about the meal we had either.

    Crispy chicken skins

    Stopped at this location as a part of the Lip Smacking foodies tour. I experienced a few samples of different dishes, and all of it was great! I tried the killer shrimp, the young beets, the devil's eggs and the crispy chicken skins. The servers were very nice and attentive. The atmosphere is very laid back. It can get a bit noisy because of the venue size, but it is a wonderful place to visit.Will definately dine here on my next visit to Las Vegas.

    Date: Monday, December 29th, 2025 Time: 2:30pm Party of: 4 Meal: Lunch Reservation Made Thru: OpenTable earlier in the day *GL - 9 - Cabernet Sauvignon ($24) *Fine, You? ($16) *The Magarian ($16) *Crispy Chicken Skins ($13) *Devil's Eggs ($16) *Pepp on Pepp Flatbread ($18) *Bacon Burger ($19) *Brussels Sprouts Caesar ($16) *Baked Mac & Cheese ($16) *Short Rib Steak ($36) *Greenall's - well ($10) We were looking for a spot on the way to the airport. I did a quote search of my bookmarks and Carson Kitchen showed up. It was easy to make a reservation. Not really any street parking, so we parked in a structure nearby. I believe it was something like $10 for two hours. Good bar / pub type food. I liked how the deviled eggs came with caviar. And their burgers come with tots with is my fav way to eat fried potatoes. So crispy! I found their cocktails to be more on the light and refreshing side. I'm more of a spirit forward girl. Very chill for a Monday afternoon. I believe I bookmarked this spot wither for their rooftop or their happy hour. The rooftop looked closed and we showed up too early for HH, so didn't take part in either. Service was good. Our server was sweet and attentive. If in the area, not a bad spot to stop by. Wouldn't mind checking out their HH specials. Note - They charge an additional 3% surcharge on credit card transactions.

    Great food and bartender. We just needed a lighter lunch since we were planning on walking around afterwards so we shared some devils eggs and a pot roast dip sandwich. Both were very good and the sandwich came with slightly spicy tots. It was the perfect amount of food and the bar seating was comfortable. We've been here a few times but haven't been back in too many years. That'll change now and we'll be back sooner. Glad to see that this place is still here since so many other restaurants we visited once are now gone.

    Devil's eggs
    George E.

    Years ago, we went to Carson Kitchen and were blown away with the creative menu, flavors, selections and innovate small plates. After 6-7 years, we are trying them again. The Rock N Roll Marathon is happening tomorrow and being on Las Vegas Blvd, Carson Kitchen is smack dab in the middle of it. The staff tonight appears to be disheveled with the race out front. We were quickly seated with no reservations, the 5K appears to be playing havic with their business. We ordered the Devil's eggs with pancetta and caviar. The presentation was nice but it lacked flavor, no desire to finish all three, a lack-luster choice. Char broiled oysters sounded interesting with white miso, pickled onions and tempora jalapeno. Absolutely, the smallest oysters but decent flavor, piping hot and a good topping. The grilled Alabama chicken thighs in a comeback sauce were ok, but not remarkable. Overall, we were disappointed with Carson Kitchen as we had held the kitchen staff in highest regard with unique and delicious dishes. None of our selections today were exciting, cutting edge or flavor bombs.

    We found this place through a Yelp search. It's got such high ratings and thousands of reviews. We figured we'd give it a shot! It is a Wed night at 8:30pm and it had several tables full but we were still able to be seated right away. The place is hard to find so heads up! Look up pictures of the outside so you don't walk past it! It's a beautiful, cozy spot with an upscale feel and vibe. The playlist is amazing! Whomever curated this has incredible & varied music taste and it all works together! 90's R&B, Alternative, Grunge Rock, all of it so good! The menu has sections that you choose 2-4 items from and share with your table. We tried the Mushroom flatbread, the Pot Roast sandwich, the Beet Salad and the Grilled Oysters. The Grilled Oysters were not a favorite. However, I think that's just personal preference because of the style they are prepared in. We prefer our grilled oysters to be very charred and more of a buttery flavor. These are prepared in an Asian style and and more of a soft grill than a char. Our server very graciously had a second plate served up with more of a grill to the oyster which we appreciated. The rest of the dishes were delicious. We were so full that we passed on dessert, but would definitely be back because the options were inventive and looked so tasty. A doughnut bread pudding, a bourbon brownie; yes to both please!

    We visited on a Monday evening and Reservations are definitely recommended and for good reason. Carson Kitchen absolutely delivered from start to finish. We sat at the counter, which I highly recommend, and got to watch the team prep and cook everything in real time. You can tell immediately that the food is fresh and largely house-made. Everything came out quickly but never felt rushed, just perfectly timed and expertly prepared. The chicken skins were incredible: hot, crunchy, well-seasoned with just the right amount of spice. The deviled eggs were spot on, and they do not skimp on the filling. The bacon burger was a standout, tender, insanely flavorful, and piping hot off the grill. Even the bun deserves praise: soft, buttery, and clearly intentional. And then the bread pudding... fluffy, rich, and eggy in the best way, topped with vanilla cream and a rum caramel that tied everything together beautifully. Service was excellent. Our waiter was perfectly attentive without hovering, and everyone we interacted with was friendly and welcoming. Overall, just a phenomenal dining experience. Easily a must-visit in Vegas, and we'll absolutely be back.

    Carson Kitchen is a fun spot. Drinks are good and apps are great. Some of the stuff we ordered was just okay. Best thing in the menu is the chicken skins. Service was kinda slow. I would go back for the chicken skins and espresso martini. See my pics

    Dining here is a great experience and you don't have to be lucky to get the "right" section from the tapas menu. I visited with two others and we sampled a large portion of the menu. The dining room is small so make sure you get a reservation to ensure seating. I am a fan of craft cocktails but found the wine list much more pleasing. The food is actually great with some variations. From the Farm Fresh section were beets that I'd give a 4/5 score, cauliflower was an absolute 5/5, the devil eggs lacked flavor earning. 3.5/5. On to the proteins, the Chicken thighs (5/5) came in an order of three and are perfectly seasoned. The short ribs are also a 5/5, tender and perfectly prepared. However, the Oxtail risotto was hands down the favorite of the table. This is now one of my favorite places in Vegas.

    Came here for date night. We tried several of the most popular tapas and they were all good. Lots of cocktail and wine options available. We came on a Saturday night so it was busy but had reservations. All of the food was good but we've had more flavorful dishes elsewhere.m for similar price.

    A mixed experience at Carson Kitchen after a matinee at the Smith Center. It was beautiful outdoors, but a private party occupied the patio, and the downstairs space was absolutely freezing. We spoke to them about this, but they weren't able to fix it. We literally wore our jackets indoors and still shivered. The long tables and stools were not comfortable for dinner; the atmosphere was bleak. Wins included the tasty devil's eggs and grape and burrata salad, with a nice light vinaigrette. But the bacon jam was greasy and the toasts underdone. Mushroom flatbread was tough and far spicier than we would have chosen. We skipped dessert in order to get outside and warm up!

    Beets
    Bonnie L.

    In the area and wanted to give this place a try. Couldn't bring in outside drinks (soda). No reservation. Seated at a communal table. Service was good. Food was good. Beet salad (6/10). Beets were good. Cauliflower app. (5/10). Not a ton of flavor. Pot roast. (7/10). Was good Tater tots. (9/10). Crispy. Flavorful. Hint of spice. Definitely glad got to try the place out!

Beyond that major let down. The scallops were just pure garlic and severely over done. The scallops were like rubber and the garlic was so strong you could smell it before it hit table. The dates were obviously made way ahead of time and where dried up little marbles drenched in sauce. Kinda scary when we had dinner at 4:00 pm. How far ahead were these prepared? Ceviche was so so. Although the shrimp were obviously precooked and then added the citrus making the shrimp like rubber. Chicken Tenga empanadas; the chicken was flavorless and dry as a camel's backside. The star of the show were the artichoke cakes. They served the cakes with an empty dish. I'm assuming for some type of dipping sauce. I asked the waiter what the empty dish was for and if there was a sauce that was supposed to come with it. He just shrugged his shoulders and said "I don't know" and walked away. Clearly didn't have any knowledge about the menu and clearly didn't care either. If there was a sauce that came with it clearly couldn't have made this dish any worse. I took one bite and all I tasted was uncooked flour and cornstarch. Absolutely zero flavor or seasoning what so ever. I've tasted tile grout and sawdust that was more edible than these "artichoke" cakes. I use that term very very loosely because there was no artichoke what so ever. I immediately sent that back. Something I never do but after everything else and the lack of care. I was just over it. Clearly everything on the menu is prepared ahead of time and just either scooped and served or just reheated. I've had fresher food from KFC to be honest and when we order at 4 pm and the food is served in literally in under 4 minutes it's a clear red flag. If I'm served food at the same time as my drink things aren't fresh. The icing on the cake was when I used the bathroom and tried to wash my hands and there were no paper towels. I walked out with my hands dripping wet. I was asked if everything was ok? I told him there's no paper towels in the men's room and the fact that there where two employees that where walking out as I walked in and neither of them said anything or did anything makes me wonder if they even noticed and just didn't care or they just didn't notice because the didn't bother to wash their hands. Either way it's not a good look by any means. Needless to say I will not be back and will tell anyone who asks not to eat here. Stay far away from this establishment. Clearly do not care about food, quality or the customer. Seriously I've been less disappointed at Dennys. It sucks but I know it sucks and you get what you'd expect at 4am. Not this let down at 4pm on a date night. The one star is very fitting because their performance was as bad as a cowboys playoff game. Just awful and also getting just one sad star. Major letdown.

My family made a reservation because they wanted to celebrate my birthday, so I was really looking forward to it. When it is your birthday, even a small detail feels a little more important. You want the night to feel special, smooth, and happy from the beginning. Unfortunately, when we arrived, there seemed to be a small issue with the reservation, and the table we were given was much smaller than expected. Since we were there as a family for a birthday dinner, it felt uncomfortable at first. I have to be honest -- my mood was not great in the beginning. It was one of those moments where you think, "Oh no, is this how the night is going to start?" But then the food started coming out, and Hachi completely turned the night around. The first thing that changed my mood was the beer. The draft beer was served in an unbelievably icy-cold mug. It was not just cold -- it looked and felt like it had come straight out of a freezer. The foam was smooth, the beer was crisp, and the first sip was so refreshing that I almost forgot I had been upset a few minutes earlier. That beer alone deserves applause. Sometimes a perfect cold beer can fix a whole mood, and this one absolutely did. The biggest highlight of the night was the tuna toro. It was incredible. The texture was so soft and delicate that it almost felt like cotton candy melting in my mouth. Rich, buttery, fresh, and so smooth. It was the kind of bite that makes everyone at the table stop talking for a second. We loved it so much that we ordered it three times. Ordering the same dish three times says everything. It was not a maybe. It was not a "let's think about it." It was a clear yes every time. The skewers were also very good. The grilled meats had a nice smoky flavor, and they were seasoned well without being too salty. They paired perfectly with the icy beer. But the shrimp skewer was especially memorable. The shrimp had that perfect bouncy, juicy texture. It was grilled nicely, still tender, and full of natural sweetness. Some grilled shrimp can become dry or forgettable, but this one had personality. Small skewer, big impact. We also enjoyed several other izakaya-style dishes. The grilled shishito peppers with bonito flakes were simple but delicious, and they helped balance out the richer dishes. The grilled squid had a great smoky flavor and a chewy texture that went so well with beer. These are exactly the kinds of dishes that make izakaya dining so fun -- one bite, one sip, one more bite, and suddenly the table is full of happy people. The sashimi platter was fresh and beautifully served over ice. There was a nice variety, including tuna, salmon, white fish, scallop, and ikura. Everything looked clean and fresh, and the presentation made it feel even more enjoyable. But honestly, the toro was the star. I will probably remember that toro for a long time. My daughter ordered tonkatsu, and that was also a huge hit. Sometimes at restaurants like this, kids' dishes can feel like an afterthought, but this tonkatsu was really good. It was crispy, flavorful, and satisfying. Seeing my daughter enjoy her food made my birthday dinner even better. As a mom, when your child eats well and is happy, the whole meal suddenly feels more peaceful. That is just the truth. Overall, Hachi started with a little frustration because of the reservation issue and the small table, but the food and drinks completely saved the night. The icy-cold beer, the amazing tuna toro, the juicy shrimp skewer, and the tonkatsu were all memorable. The food was strong enough to make us forget the rough beginning, and by the end of the meal, we were all happy. Las Vegas has so many flashy restaurants, but Hachi has that casual, comfortable izakaya charm. It is the kind of place where you order many small dishes, share with the table, drink something cold, and let the night slowly become fun. I would definitely come back next time I am in Las Vegas. Next time, I already know what I am ordering first: an icy-cold beer and tuna toro. And honestly, I may order the toro twice from the beginning, because one order is definitely not enough.

It's not close to the side of town we're on which is far north west, Skye Canyon,, but we feel it's worth it! The waitstaff is always very attentive and knowledgeable when it comes to the menu. We actually come here often enough that we are very familiar with the menu and we always know exactly what we want to eat and drink! Sorry this review is so late but every time we go to Fremont Street we eat, have drinks and then we have a good time so I get sidetracked and forget to finish reviewing lol Overall, this is a really great restaurant. It's kind of small, but we've never really have to wait very long to be seated. The best part about it is, it's in Circa which doesn't allow anyone under 21 in the casino so we don't have to worry about those kind of large parties! (Just my personal opinion)

We got the brisky dumplings, pan seared. I Was expecting the small din tai fung sized ones with little filling, but these were FAT dumplings, with good amounts of brisket inside. WE got the brisket fried rice - also very good, and the garlic noodles. I really liked the char that the noodles and rice had. Only thing for me is that the fried rice and noodles seemed to have a little too big much oil in it. I don't think that's an indictment on 8 east itself, but more of a general Chinese/Taiwanese cooking method. But other than that, I would certainly come back again.

The décor is vibrant, warm, and sophisticated, inspired by the energy of traditional Spanish tapas bars with a modern artistic twist. Rich reds, warm woods, colorful tile accents, dramatic lighting, and an open, lively dining room create an inviting atmosphere that feels both upscale and welcoming. The open layout allows you to take in the excitement of the restaurant while still feeling comfortable at your table. It's a beautiful space that perfectly captures the spirit of celebrating food, wine, and good company. The service was absolutely magnificent from beginning to end. We were warmly welcomed by the hostesses, who immediately made us feel like valued guests. Our waiter was exceptional, professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the menu. He took the time to answer our questions, offered thoughtful recommendations, and ensured everything throughout the meal was perfect. This is hospitality done right. The sangrias were delicious, refreshing, and full of flavor. My only minor suggestion would be a little less ice in the glass next time, as it diluted the drink a bit. I may order a pitcher on my next visit because they were that good. We started with the olive assortment and the Pan con Tomate, toasted slices of uniquely crispy bread imported from Barcelona and brushed with fresh tomato. It's a classic Spanish staple, and both appetizers were simple, authentic, and absolutely delicious. For our entrée, we enjoyed the halibut filet served with a luxurious mussel saffron sauce, braised fennel, and chive oil. The fish was perfectly cooked, tender, and complemented beautifully by the rich, aromatic sauce. For sides, we ordered the Patatas Bravas, crispy fried potatoes served with spicy tomato sauce and alioli, which were outstanding, and the Coliflor Salteada con Aceitunas y Dátiles, sautéed cauliflower with dates, olives, and PX wine. The combination of sweet and savory flavors made this dish incredibly unique and memorable. The atmosphere is chic, energetic, and joyful. You can feel the excitement throughout the dining room, making it an ideal place for a date night, celebration, or gathering with friends. Overall, Jaleo delivered an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. Beautiful surroundings, impeccable service, outstanding food, and delicious cocktails made for a truly memorable meal. I highly recommend it and can't wait to return to explore more of the menu.

Hugh central kitchen where you can see the fire as they cook and make paella. We had a 7 pm reservation and showed up a little after 5. Luckily it was Sunday night and they weren't busy. We were seated and the adventure began. We had not been here before so ordered across the various areas of the menu. Since it's a tapas place, each dish is small and can put away quite a few. We ordered: Jose's taco. The best thing I've put in my mouth in a long time. Wish we didn't have it first, was mind blowing mix of flavors. It's seaweed with a slice of Iberico ham and caviar. 25 each but well worth it One of each cone - sonatas, caviar, Scalia and atun. All were delicious but the caviar and tuna tartare were my faves Pan tomate wife loves this, traditional presentation and good. Patatas brava chunks of potato in a tomato sauce very good Vieras scallop dish, very tasty Gazpacho was cold and refreshing Cod bunuelos. Cod fish calendar fried, got about 5 and they were really delicious Marisol croquet seafood cake, deep fried and served with a tasty aioli. Arroz gambas. I had the large paella, takes about 45 mins so if you know you want one, order early. You can get the paella of the day in a smaller version, but I had my heart set on this one and polished off about 86% of it. Tarta de queso. We had the basque cheesecake for dessert. Was really good, I think I like this version better than the NY style. Much lighter. Was a fantastic experience, food was great, service amazing. Can't wait to come back!! They are known for their gin and tonics so the wife got the ultimate and I got the citric. Citric had Mediterranean tonic water with grapefruit juice. Was really good! Service was super, Kayla was very attentive and friendly with lots of suggestions and helpful explanations of things weren't sure about.

    Went on an early dinner triple date to Tres Social Tapas on a Saturday with my parents, my LTP, and…read moremy best friend's mom and stepdad before going to our olive oil tasting event next door. The latter two are vegetarian and I wanted to go for a vegetarian friendly restaurant just for them. The olive oil tasting was my idea so I also had to choose the restaurant. My LTP and I actually went to a different tapas restaurant about a month ago and we loved it. So I wanted to try one of these again. Our tasting was scheduled to start at 6:00pm and I booked a reservation for 4:00pm through OpenTable. They have a very spacious patio, but due to the excessive heat warning in place at the time, we decided to dine inside. I didn't look at their hours of operation beforehand, so when we walked in, it was empty. Then I noticed that they open at 4:00pm on Saturday's and we were literally the first customers inside. We got a spacious table near the back of the restaurant, where our waiter for the day was Zach. He explained to us that all their food on the menu is based out of Spain, especially the paella, which takes about 40 minutes to cook and is meant to serve about two-four people. We started off with some drinks, where I got the mango margarita, my LTP and my dad respectively got the Atomic Duck and the El Pato Loco Mexican Lager from Able Baker, and my mom and my best friend's mom and stepdad shared a bottle of Chardonnay. While the margarita was on a bit of the sweet side compared to other margaritas I've had, it was still really good and it had a really fruity taste to it. We ordered the following and all six of us shared most of them; short rib pintxo, pork belly pave, patatas bravas, ole mis croquetas, iberico dates, and chicken tinga/braise short rib empanadas. Initially, I ordered just the chicken tinga for myself and my LTP was supposed to get the braise short rib, but my plate had chicken tinga and braise short rib together. That was ok, though, because both the chicken and short rib were absolutely delicious. The short rib pintxo came on a stick, with the rib falling off the stick as I took the first bite out of it. The pork belly pave was cooked perfectly. The patatas brava were spicy, but I would say 'good' spicy. The croquetas were overall one of my favorites; when I sliced it down the middle with my fork, the mashed potato filling spilled out of it. Hands down, Tres was a fantastic restaurant. The portions weren't too big or too small and everything here was so good. Would love to sit on their patio when the weather becomes cooler!

They have glorious, large shrimps and an assortment of tapas and side dishes. They do them in small matches, so they are really fresh. The owner is here so we got to talk to him a little bit, solid dude. The staff was great helpful and polite, but not that corporate kind of nice where they chase you down to say hello and interrupt you every third bite. Will definitely be back on Sundays and I can't wait to try to full menu. I didn't try anything else because the brunch spread was so great.

This visit, though, was my first time experiencing dinner--and now I'm wondering why I waited so long. The atmosphere completely transforms in the evening. Candlelit tables, upbeat music, and an energetic yet intimate vibe make it the perfect place to catch up with friends or kick off a night at the Wynn. La Cave truly shines with its shareable small plates. We paired everything with a few glasses of bubbles and sampled the short rib tacos, beef crostini, and loaded fingerling potatoes. Every dish was packed with flavor, and each bite was even better than the last. Whether you're stopping by for their fantastic brunch or giving dinner a try, La Cave continues to prove it's one of the Wynn's standout dining experiences. I'll absolutely be back--next time, I won't wait so long for dinner.

I honestly thought it wouldn't be enough but they were consistent about bringing out item after item. The place itself is beautiful on the inside and the drinks were good. If I wasn't driving I would've gotten the bottomless brunch option. The only issue for me (which wasn't really an issue) is that we had a reservation but we still had to wait about an hour to get sat down. Also, since it's in a hotel, the only bathroom was outside of the restaurant so we kept having to get out and walk out to use the restroom. Not a huge deal but just worth mentioning.
