The Top Celebrity Chef Restaurants in Las Vegas
Celebrity Chef Brunch Restaurants

Location: The Venetian | Chef: Thomas Keller | Estimated Price Per Person: $40
Favorite Menu Item: Quiche Florentine – Soft, creamy quiche with spinach and a side of greens
Bouchon Bistro, by chef Thomas Keller is one of my favorite breakfast restaurants in Las Vegas. Thomas Keller is the head chef of the famous restaurant, the French Laundry in Napa. He also owns multiple Bouchon Bistro and Bakery locations around the country.
The Bouchon Bistro in the Venetian will transport you to a French bistro with a great view of the hotel’s gardens. The food at Bouchon is fantastic and a great way to start your day.

Dinner Restaurants with Famous Chefs in Vegas
3. Amalfi

Favorite Menu Item: Squid Ink Fettucine- lobster, shrimp, squid, fra diavolo
Amalfi restaurant in Las Vegas is a modern Italian trattoria and bar located on the strip. The menu offers classic dishes prepared with locally sourced ingredients.

4. Hell’s Kitchen
Location: Caesars Palace | Chef: Gordon Ramsay | Estimated Price Per Person: $100
Favorite Menu Item: Beef Wellington – Medium rare filet mignon wrapped in prosciutto and puff pastry served with a red wine demi-glace, roasted vegetables, and potato puree
Ever since I watched the show on FOX, I’ve wanted to visit Hell’s Kitchen in Las Vegas. As a big Gordon Ramsay fan, finally eating at his restaurant was an experience. For a different dining experience, he also has Gordon Ramsay steak and Gordon Ramsay burger restaurants on the strip.
The menu features the same dishes you see on the show including lobster risotto, scallops, and beef wellington. The fixed three course menu is a great value to try the highlights of the menu. My one criticism of this restaurant is that the service was not to the level I’d expect for the price point.
5. The Bedford
Location: Paris Hotel | Chef: Martha Steward | Estimated Price Per Person: $70
Favorite Menu Item: Halibut and Corn Chowder – Halibut, corn, Manila clams, carrots, celery, onion, potatoes, heirloom cherry tomatoes and petite basil
The Bedford restaurant in Las Vegas is a modern American bistro that serves classic dishes with an upscale twist. Located in the heart of the city, it boasts an elegant atmosphere and attentive service.
With an open kitchen and bar, their menu changes seasonally to feature locally-sourced ingredients. The Bedford offers a unique take on classic American cuisine for a truly special dining experience.
6. Spago
Location: The Bellagio | Chef: Wolfgang Puck | Estimated Price Per Person: $75
Favorite Menu Item: Miso Marinated Salmon – Salmon with a miso marinade, butternut squash puree, shitake mushrooms, and yuzu butter
There are very few restaurants in Vegas with a better view than Spago. The head chef is celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck, and the cuisine is Italian.
You can order anything from pasta to meat and seafood dishes. If you choose to dine at Spago, be sure to get a reservation and request a table with a view of the Bellagio fountain.
7. Guy Fieri’s Vegas Kitchen & Bar
Location: The Linq | Chef: Guy Fieri | Estimated Price Per Person: $45
Favorite Menu Item: Jalapeno Pig Poppers: Andouille + cheese stuffed jalapeño poppers, wrapped in maple bacon, smoked + glazed with Guy’s bourbon brown sugar BBQ sauce
This restaurant is much more casual than the other famous restaurants on this list. It is Chef Guy’s first restaurant on the Las Vegas Strip, serving up classic American favorites with a fun and unique twist.
8. Nobu
Location: Caesars Palace | Chef: Nobu Matsuhisa | Estimated Price Per Person: $100
Favorite Menu Item: Black Cod with Miso
Nobu is a bougie restaurant for bougie people. I first saw Nobu on an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians and immediately wanted to visit.
Nobu has Japanese food that you order through a series of small plates. Since there are many choices, I recommend asking your waiter to help you decide what to order. They can steer you based on your preferences and what’s the most popular.
Celebrity-Run Bars on the Las Vegas Strip
9. Vanderpump Cocktail Garden
Location: Caesars Palace
Owner: Lisa Vanderpump
Average Cocktail Price: $18
Favorite Menu Item: Please Her, Caesar – Vodka, Rose Champagne, Blackberry, Elderflower, Lemon, Aquafaba
The Vanderpump Cocktail Garden in Caesar’s Palace is such a vibe. The large bar has a bright neon sign, a lot of greenery, and a great atmosphere. If you are familiar with Lisa Vanderpump or Vanderpump rules, you need to check out this bar!
In addition to a super cool atmosphere, there are great drinks. They have fruity drink options that are great for a before-dinner stop and some great after-dinner cocktails as well.

The Best Non-Celebrity Owned Restaurants in Vegas
Eggslut
Location: The Cosmopolitan
Estimated Price Per Person: $15
Favorite Menu Item: Fairfax Sandwich – Soft scrambled eggs, chives, caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, and sriracha mayo on a brioche bun
If a Las Vegas night hits a little too hard, a breakfast sandwich from Eggslut is the best recovery. This is the only quick-service breakfast restaurant on the list. Although the line gets long, this is a fast breakfast option if you have other plans or just don’t feel like sitting down for a meal.
The menu is made up of breakfast sandwich options and other egg dishes. I’m not exaggerating when I say the Fairfax breakfast sandwich is the best I’ve ever had. It’s the perfect mix of savory and spicy.
Primrose
Location: Park MGM
Estimated Price Per Person: $40
Favorite Menu Item: Eggs Benedict – English muffin with ham and a poached egg, covered in hollandaise sauce with breakfast potatoes.
Primrose feels like you’re having brunch inside of a quaint bed and breakfast in the country. The restaurant has multiple rooms that are decorated like a living room with loveseats, arm chairs, and a variety of other seating options.
The food and drinks at Primose are perfect if you are craving a classic American brunch. They serve all of your favorites and have generous portions.
Eataly
Location: Park MGM
Estimated Price Per Person: $40
Favorite Menu Item: Tagliatelle Bolognese – Fresh-made pasta with a hearty Bolognese sauce
Eataly in the Park MGM hotel is the best restaurant in Vegas for a quick lunch. It is an Italian food market with stalls for all different types of Italian cuisine including meat, seafood, pizza, pasta, gelato, and more.
Eataly is a great restaurant in Vegas for groups. You can order plates from multiple stalls and share with a group, or each get what sounds best to you. There is also a charcuterie station, cocktail station, and wine station if you want to just get drinks with friends.
Mon Ami Gabi
Location: Paris
Estimated Price Per Person: $35
Favorite Menu Item: Croque Monsieur – Ham and gruyere sandwich with a rich mornay sauce
Between the Paris hotel and the restaurant, it’s easy to forget that you aren’t in France. Mon Ami Gabi is a French bistro in the Paris hotel with a large patio and views of the Bellagio fountain.
French bistro food is one of my favorite cuisines for lunch. Think French onion soup, steak frites, escargot, and crusty French bread. Between the food, drinks, and atmosphere, this restaurant is a must-visit.
Nacho Daddy
Estimated Price Per Person: $35
Favorite Menu Item: Filet Mignon Nachos- House-made corn chips with grilled filet mignon, refried beans, cheese, ranchero sauce, salsa, guacamole, and sour cream
Nacho Daddy is by far the least classy restaurant on this list. But lets be honest, Las Vegas isn’t always classy. Nacho Daddy is an entire restaurant dedicated to nachos. They take nachos to the next level by featuring high-end ingredients such as filet mignon and lobster.
I recommend visiting Nacho Daddy with a group of at least 4 and getting a few nacho options to share.
Fun Bars on the Las Vegas Strip
Chandelier Bar
Location: The Cosmopolitan
Average Cocktail Price: $17
Favorite Menu Item: Original Sin – Bourbon, Cinnamon Whiskey, Peanut Butter Whiskey, 8-Spice Cocktail Sphere
The Chandelier Bar is a three-story bar that resembles a chandelier. Each floor has a unique menu, all with great options. My favorite level is the middle one, because you are fully surrounded by the crystal’s of the chandelier.
The Dorsey
Location: The Venetian
Average Cocktail Price: $18
Favorite Menu Item: Coconut White Russian – Vodka, Coconut, Coffee Liquor, Whipped Cream
The Dorsey is a high-end, classy cocktail bar in the Venetian hotel. I haven’t been myself, but from passing by it stood out as a great bar in Vegas. I’ve only heard great things about the drinks as well. If you’ve been, let me know your thoughts in the comments.
