The tasting menu here is phenomenal. Every course had a new depth of flavor to offer. The Jidori chicken gnocchi was especially surprising; it's the best chicken I've ever had with a lot of flavors. I'd recommend coming here if you have the chance and getting the tasting menu with the add ons. They were able to accommodate my NO PORK request quite well. read more

Stubborn Seed - New American Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Warning: You'll compare every future fine dining experience against Stubborn Seed. It's almost sad that I've had a such a great meal at this place because now I know what a real chef can do with food. Yeah sure, it was just a salad and a skirt steak, but it was a salad and a skirt steak that no one has ever conceived of. You'll never have another one like it...and I'm not kidding, it was that good. The restaurant was beautiful, and the service was excellent. I really like the open kitchen because you get the sense that these people are serious about food. read more

Florida concept moved to Vegas. Let's be responsible in what we eat. leads to new and different choices. I stayed conventional with the cauliflower which was excellent. Seafood, pasta and bread available. Drinks were excellent and service was particularly strong With staff paying attention, listening and trying to address anything that would make my meal better. They have a five course tasting menu if you come hungry. read more

The interior of Stubborn Seed is upscale but still hip and fun, and I loved having a clear view of the kitchen action from the main dining room. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm and polite, and the service ran like clockwork. Their pacing, precision, and attention to detail feels truly Michelin-star-worthy. We were celebrating my brother's birthday and they made it feel special by giving us two complimentary glasses of bubbly to kick things off and ended with a cute little Oreo "birthday cookie cake" for dessert. Those thoughtful touches go a long way, especially when you're doing a tasting menu night and want it to feel like an occasion. Food-wise, every dish we had was superb: beautiful plating, high-quality ingredients, and flavors that were layered and intentional. My favorite was the Madai Veronique which was so perfectly golden and crispy while retaining the texture and juicy bounce of the fish. The miso beurre had such a creamy umami taste and was a perfectly pairing for the fish. The Australian Wagyu striploin was also a highlight given the flavor and richness of the beef - truly one of the best steaks I've ever eaten. But here's where the one-star deduction comes in. For the price point, the portions on the Australian Wagyu striploin and the Elevated Tasting sampler felt way too small. I expect tasting menus to be on the smaller side, but these were tiny (50% smaller than we expected) and left us hanging. Nevada locals tip: they offer a 20% discount for Nevada locals from Mon-Thurs, so definitely ask and take advantage while it's available! read more

Stubborn Seed was one of the highlights of our trip to Las Vegas. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. Our server was welcoming, knowledgeable, and truly elevated the experience by sharing details about the restaurant and its chef, a Top Chef winner who has gone on to earn a Michelin star. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. The ambiance was elegant and inviting, featuring dim lighting that created the perfect atmosphere for a special night out. The cocktail menu was creative and unique, and even my mocktail was exceptionally crafted with the same attention to detail as the cocktails. A must-order is the ciabatta with whipped feta. It was incredible and easily one of our favorite bites of the evening. If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience in Las Vegas with amazing food, outstanding service, and a sophisticated atmosphere, Stubborn Seed is a restaurant I highly recommend. read more

Stubborn Seed is more than a name. It represents a philosophy rooted in resilience, dedication, and a refusal to abandon ingredients that may seem unlikely to shine. With patience and precision, those small ideas evolve into bold, refined, and unforgettable culinary experiences. Jeremy Ford, Top Chef winner, opened the Las Vegas location of Stubborn Seed, building on the success of the original Miami restaurant, which holds a Michelin star. With Michelin returning to Las Vegas, it feels like only a matter of time before this location earns one as well. Choosing a restaurant for a special occasion in Las Vegas can feel overwhelming. The options are endless and the standards are high. After doing my due diligence, I reserved a table for two at Stubborn Seed because the cuisine looked modern, creative, and thoughtfully composed. I mentioned that we were celebrating my wife's birthday, and they absolutely delivered. She was treated like royalty from the moment we arrived. As locals, we were told we received complimentary valet and a discount, which was an unexpected and appreciated touch. Had I known. I wouldn't have parked at self-parking located in another zip code. From personalized menus to polished, intuitive service, the entire experience felt elevated without feeling stiff. I even told her we should return for my birthday, although November suddenly seems far away. We chose the tasting menu with wine pairings. From the moment our server, Cole, introduced himself to when Josh, the sommelier, stopped by, the service felt Michelin level. During our conversation, Josh mentioned it was also the one year anniversary of Stubborn Seed Las Vegas. Serendipitous. The yellowtail, lamb dumpling dish, barramundi in galangal curry, wagyu strip loin, and citrus pavlova were all exceptional. Each course felt precise and intentional. And as an Asian dude, I learned that you can do so much more with pine nuts from Stubborn Seed's dishes! The wine pairing added another layer of discovery. A dry Riesling was a standout, and pairing Pinot Noir with white fish completely reshaped how I think about seafood and red wine. In many ways, the restaurant's name mirrors the chef's own resilience. His perseverance and skill have allowed something planted in Miami to flourish in Las Vegas. We will absolutely be back. read more

Stopover for a quick dinner in Vegas on the way back from the Big 5 means a chance to sample some newer contenders in the Vegas food scene. Stubborn Seed holds a Michelin star in Miami but just recently (Feb 2025) opened a second location in Vegas. The add on appetizers for $40 were so so, the best of which was the hamachi crunch which was quite similar to many an appetizer at other Michelin restaurants. The meal ended on a confusing note with tiny red velvet cakes which had nothing to do with the seed concept and also were just okay. Highlight of the night were the palate cleanser (addictive) and the dessert (delicious). The savory and sweet sherbets were the strength of Jeremy Ford's menu and it would be an interesting concept to make every item on the tasting menu a sherbet experience. The wagyu and each of the dishes prior to it were pretty dang solid as well, so I could see this menu getting recognized if the service becomes more Michelin-like. The delivery of the dishes were on point and delivered well by the server, but the ambiance of the restaurant is currently more Vegas than Michelin. Bathroom was pretty gross, and no validated parking is available (unless you valet). read more

If you're looking for one of the best dining experiences in Las Vegas, make a reservation at Stubborn Seed inside Resorts World Las Vegas. I've followed Chef Jeremy Ford's career for many years, making this dinner especially meaningful. Years ago, Jeremy served as Executive Chef at the restaurant at the Eden Roc Miami Beach Resort, where I had the opportunity to see his talent firsthand. Even then, guests consistently praised his creativity, attention to detail, and ability to transform every dish into an unforgettable experience. Following the resort's renovation, Jeremy continued his journey, opening the acclaimed Matador Room at The Miami Beach EDITION before earning a Michelin Star. Watching his career evolve into one of today's premier culinary success stories has been inspiring. Dining at Stubborn Seed this past June exceeded every expectation. The menu is imaginative, beautifully presented, and showcases Chef Jeremy's ability to combine bold flavors with refined technique. Every course reflects creativity, precision, and a passion for exceptional ingredients. This is much more than dinner--it's a true culinary experience. One dish that absolutely stole the show was the Whole Roasted Cauliflower with cashew purée, house-made chili crisp, fresh herbs, and lemon. While it may sound like a simple vegetable dish, it's anything but. The cauliflower is perfectly roasted, the cashew purée is incredibly rich and creamy, and the chili crisp adds just the right amount of texture and subtle heat. Every bite offers a new combination of flavors, making it one of the most memorable dishes I've enjoyed in years. It's generous enough to be a meal on its own, and I highly recommend ordering it for the table. Great restaurants have signature dishes, and for me, this is one worth returning for. The service was equally impressive. Our server, Chuck, was knowledgeable, personable, and genuinely passionate about the menu. His recommendations were excellent, his timing was flawless, and he created a dining experience that felt personal rather than scripted. I also want to recognize Josh Moore, the restaurant's General Manager. Throughout the evening, Josh was actively engaging with guests, checking on tables, and ensuring every detail was perfect. His leadership and hospitality were evident throughout the dining room and clearly reflected in the team's professionalism. For me, this is what makes a truly great restaurant. Chef Jeremy Ford delivers extraordinary cuisine, Chuck creates an exceptional guest experience, and Josh Moore brings it all together through outstanding leadership and hospitality. Congratulations to the entire Stubborn Seed team. I highly recommend making reservations well in advance--this is a restaurant you'll remember long after the meal is over, and one I'll definitely return to on my next visit to Las Vegas. read more

Stubborn Seed - Multi course amazing - New American Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Wow! This place was a treat! The restaurant itself it gorgeous and I loved the giant art piece above the window into the kitchen. We came for a family reunion and were seated right on time and served incredibly well. We went with the chef's choice menu and everything was fantastic! Each dish was a fun experience of flavor, story, and fusion. The service was absolutely top notch with great attendance and presence. We did the drink pairing with the meal and it has to be one of the best pairings I've ever had. Never has each drink been great to start, better during a bite, and somehow even more delectable after. Surprisingly, the dish that stands out in my mind is the dessert. The yuzu was perfectly sweet, tart, and light and I wish I could get it all the time! read more

Hands Down the Best tasting menu in Las Vegas. Absolute Brilliance! Everything we ate hit on all fronts - Flavor, Texture, Plating...it was a feast for your eyes as well as your tastebuds. The service was impeccable as well. Our waiter Doug is the definition of Exceptional Customer Service. All the servers were amazing and my glass was never empty. A lot of restaurants of this caliber can feel pretentious, not Stubborn Seed. It truly embodies what a Fine Dining Experience should be. Never once did I feel anxious about needing my glass filled or waiting too long for the next course. Everything was as it should be...Perfection. read more

My friends also decided to go with wine pairing 4 glasses for $60. They enjoyed the pairings. The menu was printed without party name which is a nice touch. To start, olive ciabatta breads with feta cheese, vegetables. The bread is very moist. The vegetables and feta cheese is served on the side which can be eaten like a veggie toast. We also had an extra dip dish. The presentation is very nice with flower arrangement and fragrant smoke. Yellowtail was so fresh with citrusy and sweetness from Asian pear and passionfruit. The dish is very refreshing. Our favorite dish! Lamps fagottelli: very al dente! One of our favorite dish of the menu. Pan roasted barramundi with baby leek, fennel, shitaki sofritto.

After a long night of planning NYE dinner, my husband and I made reservations at Stubborn Seed. The tasting menu of $169/pp before tax and gratuity was very affordable and well worth it! You are able to indulge in land and sea dishes. I love almost every one of the dishes that evening. Ambience: incredible, moody, romantic and definitely elevated with posh red leather booth seats, fun light fixtures, arched mirrors, coffered wood ceiling, Japanese mural hung from the ceiling/wall and beautiful tiled floors. Oh i made sure to notice it all! The table setting was also beautiful with a folded menu, sealed with hot wax stamp, love the little details. A spot for a romantic date, I would say and perfect for NYE dinner for two. Our tasting menu included the following: TOGARASHI SALMON CRUDO - 5/5 (SO GOOD!!!!) amazu ponzu | avocado | Jalapeno failium CHAR GRILLED OCTOPUS - 5/5 popcorn polenta i piquillo shishito succotash chill miso PAPPARDELLE - 4/5 chanterelle mushroom | chicken oysters chestnut cream bottarga CHILEAN SEABASS - 3.5/5 (a bit salty) ginger lemongrass brodo | shiso pistou | maltake | bok choy KALBI - 4/5 westholme short rib | daikon emulsion kimchi brussel CITRUS BUBBLY - 5/5 (refreshing & delicious) almond sponge | champagne gelee vanilla mousse | blood orange cranberry sorbet Cocktails were well made, strong and flavorful. Old Fashion is usually our favorites but you also can't go wrong with the wine pairing (additional $85). Chef also brought us an additional dessert for our anniversary. It was so thoughtful. Service was absolutely incredible. Our waiter was attentive, kind and fun. If you're ever in Vegas looking for a fun, elevated dining experience come check out Chef Jeremy Ford's Stubborn Seed, you won't be disappointed! read more

Just Simply Amazing First off- the decor is beautiful and the ambience is dim and romantic, but also good for groups. We chose the Chefs Tasting Menu which came out in 6 courses and each course came with a wine or sake pairing which was all perfectly timed. Every dish was unique and full of flavors. We definitely left VERY full!!! I highly recommend a stop there or if you're in Miami, they have their original location there!!! Make sure to make reservations way ahead! Also our waiter was knowledgeable and had a system with the other waiters that worked really well to get everything cleared and timed out. It was kind of nice that we didn't just sit there for hours, even though it was 6 courses. Great Food & Bon Appetite Highly Recommended ! read more

To die for! Stubborn Seed was out of this world - I can't believe there wasn't a line out the door but it's still so new. Very nice interior and spectacular service. We shared the tasting menu plus wine pairings - such a treat! The food was fantastic and the tasting menu was perfection. The yellowtail, barramundi and wagyu courses were my favorite - the sauces with the both the yellowtail and barramundi courses need to be bottled and sold separately. The wine pairings were fun (especially the sake with the yellowtail!), but next time I'd just go with cocktails. We also ordered the Cacio e Pepe cheesy puffs (just ok) and the Iberico ham fritters (must have!) read more

This was a really great tasting menu at an excellent price. Atmosphere/ambience: dark vibe Miami makes sense. It's more chill than some other Fontan restaurants and we were glad for it. Plenty of space. Lots of tables. Few were filled at beginning of prime time when we began our meal. As the experience went, we were surprised. A real gem. Service: attentive, thoughtful, and fun. Chuck was our main server and he matched our energy. The menu is fairly set with some accompaniments. I respect a chef that sticks to their offerings and is upfront about it (mentioned several times before you can book). There was a slight adjustment or two for some dietary allergies but it's really take it or leave it with a flex option or two here or there. Food came out well paced. Drinks were always full. Food: the two seafood dishes were a standout. Maybe not surprising from a Miami-based Michelin starred restaurant. The foam I still dream about. The wagyu was nice and rich, and it was able to speak for itself without being cloaked by unnecessary flair. We were sated even though jt was a few courses, and two of us ordered the option extra dish. A intense bite. The menu will change often. I'm sure mine is seasonally gone now. Drinks: our group liked the cocktails -- tradition and unique ones too. The wine pairing was excellent. Not always big names, but they were on point and surprisingly great for the price point. Price: Speaking of, it's hard to beat for the dollar. There are certainly bigger and more expensive and also better courses menus and pairings in Vegas, but I'd argue not per the dollar. A great spot to take for a nice date or special occasion without breaking the bank -- just denting it. Only concern was we weren't told tip was included even for a table of 4, and we almost mega tipped but did a double take. We'll be back! read more

Stubborn Seed had been on the wife's and my radar since it opened. We're both big Top Chef fans so we knew who Jeremy Ford was, but we'd never had the opportunity to try his food at his Miami original. Needless to say, we were really excited to give his Vegas version of his Michelin-starred concept a go on a Thursday night. We arrived a few minutes before our 6PM reservation, but were able to be seated immediately in the dining room with a view into the kitchen. The restaurant's interior design had a masculine, but still very appealing, aesthetic with dark wood, leather, and subdued lighting that seemed more Vegas steakhouse than South Beach. Since we're locals, we received a complimentary glass of bubbles to enjoy while we looked over the menu. It was a very welcomed start to our night. While Stubborn Seed offers a la carte options, we came for the tasting menu, which is our preferred way to truly get a feel for a chef's cuisine. We added the "elevated experience" to the tasting menu, which added a few additional bites and a $40 upcharge. We also opted for the wine pairing. We received the following items on the tasting menu: - Kalamata Olive Ciabatta - Kaluga Caviar Macaron, Hudson Valley Foie Gras & Black Truffle Tart, Wagyu Beef Tartare...over-the-top in a great way! The tart was my favorite single bite of the evening. - Sake & Citrus Cured Japanese Yellowtail with chili ferment, compressed Asian pear, and passion fruit buttermilk emulsion...fresh, refreshing, and flavorful, my favorite course of the meal. - Harissa Lamb Fagotelli served over a ginger tomato emulsion, peppers, and pine nut dukkah - Intermezzo consisting of a sour apple sorbet, fennel granita, and a rosemary gel. - Fragrant Spiced Barramundi in a galangal curry...fish was perfectly cooked, the curry was fragrant and flavorful, but was on the razor's edge of being too salty. - Westholme Australian Wagyu Striploin...fork tender, rich, buttery goodness. - Citrus Pavlova, an olive oil cake with yuzu cream and caramelized pistachios Stubborn Seed lived up to, if not exceeded, my lofty expectations. The food was imaginative and tasty. The wine pairings were interesting, yet delicious and complemented the food perfectly. The service was excellent from all team members throughout our meal. The setting was classy yet comfortable. Overall, I thought we received surprisingly good bang for the buck given its location in a high-end Strip property. Stubborn Seed won't be everyone's cup of tea, but if you love well-made, creatively conceived food, then you should definitely give this place a try. read more

Stubborn Seed was nothing short of a phenomenal experience from start to finish! We came here to celebrate my friend's birthday, and I was overly impressed with the thoughtfulness and the attention that they put knowing it was our friend's birthday. We had special menus that noted the celebration and of course, the dessert at the end was unexpected and absolutely delicious. The timing of the dishes was perfect, the size of each course was balanced, and the waitstaff was exceptional. I was impressed with the variety of wines they had available by the glass and loved the "enhancements" and "add-on" caviar based options - a MUST try! While this dinner was not inexpensive, IMO, it was worth every penny! The restaurant itself was warm, modern and upscale. I loved being able to sit right in front of the kitchen window also and see the chefs at work! It lived up to all my expectations and I will 100% be going back next time I'm in Vegas! read more

Stubborn Seed is the Las Vegas location of a Michelin Star New American Restaurant by James Beard Nominated and Bravo Top Chef Jeremy Ford that is located in Resorts World on the Las Vegas Strip. It's a beautiful large restaurant and bar. They offer a mix of different seating. One dining area is bright and looks like you are seated in a greenhouse. Other seating is more traditional and rich looking. My review is only for the SPECIAL EVENT DINNER of chef Jeremy Ford and chef Mei Lin. For us it was a mix of Amazing and not perfect. I made our reservations quite a while back (maybe two months) and also had to pay in advance to secure our reservations. The menu posted has slightly changed but even with constant contact by the restaurant the changes were never mentioned. We started with a variety of welcome bites. Out of the three the spectacular one was the Foie Gras Tart. This was the most amazing Foie Gras my husband ever had anywhere and we've been to L"ATELIER. The warm celery root might have been amazing too but the celery root on my plate was still very hard. We were both very happy with the Beef Tartar. It was great! The Citrus Cured Kanpachi was delicious and great! The Kimchi Udon was amazing but not perfect. Mine didn't have any shaved Brussels sprouts or mushrooms in it. I didn't taste truffle but I still thought it tastes amazing. Steamed Black Cod - I thought the Sichuan Broth was amazing. I thought a big miss was no mention on the menu of shrimp mousse in the center of the cod. I do note that the kitchen was kind enough to prepare something else on the fly to please me. Black Garlic Glazed Wagyu Short Ribs - We got two really different experiences here with this one. Mine was 1/2 fat and the other half was delicious and very black garlic tasting. The other was a bit dry and chewy. Strawberry Tart - AMAZING! Macarons - AMAAZING! Service - AMAZING! The Special Event Dinner was a mix of Amazing and not perfect. read more

We love checking out restaurants from former Top Chef winners, and Stubborn Seed absolutely lived up to the hype. While the location at Resorts World isn't the easiest to get to, once you're inside, the gorgeous decor and warm, attentive staff make it worth the trek. We kicked things off with an off-menu passion fruit mocktail that was a total delight. The Sake & Citrus Cured Japanese Yellowtail followed--bursting with flavor, just wish the portion was a bit bigger. Then came the Chips and a Dip, a must-order in our book. The only small tweak we'd make is slightly thicker chips--they're delicious but a little fragile in that dip! The Little Gem Lettuces were fresh, bright, and fun to eat by hand, like little flavor-packed cups. For entrées, we shared the Ember-Grilled Branzino and the Smoked Beef Rib--both rich, bold, and incredibly satisfying. We added a side of whole roasted cauliflower, which complemented everything perfectly. Every dish tonight had such a thoughtful, standout flavor profile. And the Citrus Pavlova for dessert? The ideal finale to an awesome meal. Stubborn Seed did not disappoint--we'd happily return for round two! read more

Food was bland. Service was terrible in an empty restaurant. Management was ambivalent Would not go back.

Resorts World has a great new restaurant named Stubborn Seed this isn't there first rodeo since they have a location in Miami. But all I got to say is whoever designed the interior of this place loved making things just look so beautiful. Food wise and service was good and interesting. Some of the dishes even looked too pretty to eat honestly. Came here with a large group of dudes and I was the only lady at the table. But overall it was still enjoyable and fun. The setting is still nice since we sat on a long table and were able to talk with our guest. Not a bad place for a dinner. read more

I wasn't excited about dinner in Vegas tonight, after 2 duds in a row. I walked the whole strip looking for inspiration. I thought maybe I'd hit old favorites like China Poblano or Beijing Noodle, but they didn't sound right. I figured I'd just head back to my hotel at Resorts World and hit the steakhouse. I knew it would be expensive and standard, but solid. As I was walking there, I looked over at the menu at Stubborn Seed, and saw it was by Top Chef winner and star of Fast Foodies, Jeremy Ford. Menu looked solid, figured I'd give it a shot instead. Was going to get one of the obvious foodie choices like the spiced barramundi or smoked beef rib. But the bartender could not stop talking about how much people loved, and returned over and over for, the burger. So at his recommendation, and knowing the chef's prowess in elevating fast food staples, I got the bibb lettuce salad and the burger. Great choice. Salad was super light and flavorful. Top two, if not the best, burger I've ever had (shoutout to Chicago's Au Cheval). Perfectly cooked and gooey with the cheese mixing with the fried onions. The beef bacon was amazing. Even the grind on the meat was large and luxurious. Chef was actually cooking tonight and stepped out to talk and take a picture with the folks at the bar. Really nice guy. Such a better dinner than I had planned for myself tonight. read more

We decided to come here to celebrate our 3 year wedding anniversary and it definitely did not disappoint! Lovely experience, good food, wonderful conversation, and top tier service. We came here on a Wednesday night, seemingly a calm night at the restaurant. (2 other tables being served when we entered, and about 3-4others when we left). Upon entering you're greeted by the host. We walked through the front bar area and into the intimate main dining area, past the view of the kitchen, and to a booth. Although the booth was quite large for the two of us (the servers had to really reach across the table in order to serve, take away, and clean up), it was nice overlooking the rest of the restaurant from its location. The space itself is dark and moody, with red booths and accents, dark tables, and a beautiful and fun mural above the kitchen. The vibe inside has a cmodern, classy aesthetic. After reading reviews, I thought we could add a la carte items to our pre-fixe menu, but after talking to the host, she was unsure. We got the pre-fixe menu, and although I asked about the a la carte, or even just to see it, she said she would ask and be back. Unfortunately, we were never given the menu, or answer, which was too bad because I would have wanted to order a dish I saw online. Regardless, Our server, Mike, was super friendly and knowledgeable of the winter menu and the additional elevated experience menu we had selected. He was great at conversing and made us feel at ease. He answered many of our questions such as which to start with during the elevated experience, and offered us additional information about the menu as it was served. You can see the winter menu so I won't get into the actual ingredients, but our agreed favorites were the Kaluga caviar macaron from the Elevated experience, and the Kalamata Olive Ciabata, Winter Truffle Ricotta Gnudi, and Winter Citrus Pavlova from the winter menu. Personally, I also enjoyed the Yellowtail dish, while my husband personally enjoyed the Barramundi. The use of citrus and many winter ingredients were interesting and well done. The cocktails were also well crafted and made. Towards the end we were also surprised with a sweet anniversary treat, which was a lovely! Overall, the experience was delightful and the courses were well made & well paced. This place was definitely pricey as we ordered additions to the winter menu. The additions of the cocktails and elevated experience for two plus tip was about a $500+ experience, which although unique, may not be something I'd come back for when combing through restaurant options here in Vegas. I'm intrigued by the thought of the spring menu, but there must be a very special occasion for me to want to come back. I do, however, think the experience and tastes are something many would enjoy and should try at least once! read more

DO NOT!!! I REPEAT... DO NOT SKIP THIS PLACE!!! This is one of the most incredible tasting menus that doesn't break the bank... but I'm boujee so I added enhancements. Ask for a A la Carte menu and add something to your tasting, because we added the short rib and even though I was full.. I DO NOT REGRET IT. The menu changes, the service is phenomenal! Everyone we interacted with was great! But I would definitely ask for Aleesha, she made the entire experience warm and welcoming. I sure will be asking for her when the menu changes again! From the paintings on the wall to the dry ice on the plate.. it is an experience you don't to miss. Make sure you get a table so you can watch the cooks prepare the magic through the window.

Easily one of the 5 best meals I've ever had. I would come back to Vegas simply to eat here again. The food was that memorable and the service and ambiance were great too. It was kind of dead the night we went but that just meant we got even more VIP treatment the staff. You won't regret eating here. read more

Stubborn Seed - New American Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

This was a pretty good meal. The rib in particular was something spectacular. It was very tender, and had a unique taste and crust and rub. Was a perfect size of meat too. The carrots are my other recommendation, along with the yellowtail. Service was friendly and efficient. Only reason no five stars is that the cocktails are a bit too light of alcohol. Otherwise a great experience. read more
