Adorned with some original works by Picasso, this restaurant raised the city's dining scene a notch when it opened in Bellagio in 1998. Although some say executive chef Julian Serrano doesn't change his menu often enough, the artful, innovative cuisine—based on French classics with strong Spanish influences—is consistently outstanding. Appetizers on the seasonal menu might include warm quail salad with sautéed artichokes and pine nuts, or poached oysters with osetra caviar and vermouth sauce. Roasted milk-fed veal or sautéed medallions of fallow deer with romanesco are other potential entrée choices. Sometimes a seasonal specialty menu may feature Alba white truffles. Dinners are prix-fixe, with four or five-course options; a vegan menu also is available.

In an ultraswank dining room on the second floor of the Augustus Tower, Michelin three-star chef Guy Savoy introduces diners to his masterful creations, such as roasted turbot with beet and garlic. The seven-course 5 Star Celebration Menu features signature dishes like the artichoke-and-black-truffle soup and hazelnut-crusted sweetbread. Prices are a little lower if you opt for the à la carte menu. The selections from Savoy's 15,000-bottle wine cellar only add to this restaurant's epicurean mystique.

The Tea Lounge may be right off the main lobby, but it’s still a sea of serenity (with the addition of fabulous 23rd-floor views)—this is the Waldorf Astoria, after all. Service is formal but not stuffy, and the afternoon tea is done in the classic English style. There's also a children's tea, with a hot-chocolate option and dishes designed to appeal to the younger set. There are three seatings on Wednesdays through Sundays, and reservations are usually necessary.

Chef Bobby Flay scored another hoped-for hot spot at Caesars Palace with his replacement for the popular Mesa Grill. With a menu emphasizing seafood (thanks to Flay's visits to Italy's Amalfi Coast), the new restaurant encourages diners to visit a "market" section near the back, where they can choose a whole fish and one of three ways to prepare it. A "knowledgeable fishmonger" is on hand to answer the diners' questions, right down to where the fish comes from and how long it's been sitting. One thing to note: this is Flay's first foray into an Italian restaurant concept.

Michael Mina’s stunning Belle Époque dark-wood-and-glass wonder on the mezzanine level of ARIA has, as you might expect, a decidedly French accent, and old-world glory shines in dishes such as oeufs mimosa (caviar deviled eggs), duck à l'orange salad (with duck confit and sauce remoulade), and black cod bouillabaisse. At brunch, which runs from 9 am to 2 pm, Friday through Sunday, you can indulge in brioche French toast with vanilla bean mascarpone and almond brittle, or the pastry selection that includes canelé de Bordeaux and kouign-amann. Happy hour is from 5 to 7 pm daily, accompanied by cocktails like French 75 and Le Peche Mode.

The Flamingo's newest restaurant honors its founders, notorious mobsters Bugsy Siegel and Meyer Lansky, in a fun way, with a “hidden” entry that looks like a bakery. Inside, you’ll find decor that evokes the 1940s and a classic steakhouse menu: crab cakes, beef tartare, lobster bisque, and onion soup are among the starters, and the menu of wet and dry-aged steaks is augmented by seafood, lamb chops, and short ribs. As for cocktails, the “unique old fashioned experience” lets you choose your liquor, citrus, syrup, and bitters. The tucked-away, speakeasy-style Count Room has its own menu of vintage cocktails.

Locals and visitors alike were delighted when New York's cronut king set up shop in Las Vegas, at Caesars Palace across from The Colosseum. The shop serves Ansel's cronut creations as well as French pastries such as the best-seller kouign-amann, tiger-striped pain au chocolat, huge nutty almond croissants, macarons, and canelés. Mini-madeleines are piped to order and served warm, and Ansel's signature chocolate chip cookie shots and frozen s'mores are made while you wait. Creative, beautiful pastries like the Goldfish, flavored with calamansi, coconut, and mango, are another specialty, and quiche and sandwiches are available. There are a few seats inside if you'd like to sit while indulging in a croque monsieur.

This Paris Las Vegas restaurant is a room with a view. It's about a third of the way up the hotel's half-scale Eiffel Tower replica, with vistas from all four glassed-in sides. (Request a Strip view when booking for the biggest wow factor—it overlooks the fountains at Bellagio across the street; but expect to pay extra). Patrons are often pleasantly surprised that the food here measures up to the setting: the French-accented menu usually includes appetizers of cold foie gras torchon with duck prosciutto. On the entrée list, you might find individual Eiffel Tower beef Wellingtons, venison loin with huckleberry jus, and vegetarian dishes such as crispy roasted quinoa roulade with honeynut squash. The restaurant also offers a variety of caviar priced by the ounce, and brunch is served from 10 am to 2 pm weekends.

The first restaurant from TV personality and classically trained chef Giada De Laurentiis sits on a prime piece of real estate at the intersection of the Strip and Flamingo Road. The wide expanse of floor-to-ceiling windows provides commanding views, and the food's pretty impressive, too. Try the caprese frittata or a selection of pastries for brunch. At dinner, start with the ricotta crostini or orzo meatballs and move on to penne rigati with wild mushroom and vegetable Bolognese, or veal chop saltimbocca. A four-course tasting menu also is available. The chef has a much more casual spot, Pronto, at Caesars Palace.

Since Gordon Ramsay's been known to flame a contestant or two, it's only fitting that his burgers are cooked over a hardwood fire. If you're looking for something a little different, consider the UK Burger, with Dubliner cheese and Major Grey's Chutney, or the Stout Burger, with Guinness mustard aioli, Gruyere, mushrooms, and crispy onion strings. Dig into one of Ramsay's rich desserts while enjoying the roaring fire.

Gordon Ramsay's fifth Las Vegas restaurant is a reflection of his popular Fox TV show, right down to the red and blue teams in the kitchen and TV monitors dotted around. The sprawling restaurant is a lively, noisy place where fire is a frequent motif. The menu lists Ramsay signatures such as beef Wellington and sticky toffee pudding, and there also is a selection of chilled seafood and a number of grilled dishes, plus a menu for vegetarians and vegans.

Three things stand out at this comfortable, casual restaurant, conceptualized by notoriously tyrannical celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey: the libations, the cheery across-the-pond ambience, and the elevated British pub grub. Drinks have names like Goodbye Blue Sky and Bloody Orange; or slake your thirst with a Kilkenny Irish Cream Ale or Fuller's ESB Champion Beer. Hum along with classic Brit pop and rock tunes and watch soccer on any of the numerous flat-screen tellys. Seating is easy on the bum, the place settings rich and rustic. Bread isn’t complimentary, so get your yeast fix with the Ploughman's Board that also includes bone marrow, cured meats, cheese, and vegetables. Or start with maple glazed bacon or a poached shrimp cocktail. The roasted beef Wellington, braised short rib and cabbage, steak and ale pie, oak-grilled meats, crispy fish-and-chips, and lobster mac and cheese are standouts. Warm sticky toffee pudding has fans aplenty.

Gordon Ramsay's heavily British-themed Las Vegas flagship bridges the geographic gap with a Chunnel-like entrance connecting it to Paris Las Vegas. It bridges the culinary gap with a wide variety of beef, including Japanese A5 strip loin and numerous cuts of American Wagyu and prime beef. On the menu, shellfish, caviar, and luxe entrées like roasted beef Wellington are joined by pork belly porchetta and other more earthy fares. The five-course tasting menu is a tour of Ramsay's signature items.

It's no easy feat coming up with a restaurant in Las Vegas that offers more than just a gimmicky theme or celebrity-chef pedigree. Harvest, a casual but cosmopolitan spot that's secluded from Bellagio's noisy gaming areas, succeeds by presenting a locally sourced, sustainable menu with a healthful tilt. The sandstone and glass walls and soothing waterfalls provide a suitably soothing backdrop to the seasonal menus, which might include seared octopus with white bean puree, salt and pepper fried shrimp with chile-lime mayo, or Wild Isles salmon. Quench your thirst with a glass of house-made ginger ale or a classic cable car. Vegetarian and vegan dishes also are available.

Holsteins made its reputation (which has been known to draw the occasional celebrity) on burgers, burgers, and more burgers. But the restaurant is also known for its "Bam-Boozled" shakes, which are just as fun as they sound. Start with Philly Egg Rolls or Buffalo chicken dip, followed by a burger like the Forager Burger—a beef and mushroom patty topped with mixed greens, a fried egg, tomato confit, and Swiss cheese—or a turkey or vegetarian burger, which is chicken breast on a bun or a salad. It's hard to miss; just look for the great big cow.

Visitors no longer need a car for an In-N-Out fix, now that there's a location at The LINQ Promenade on the Strip. The simple menu of fresh burgers, just-cut fries, and milk shakes makes this affordable West Coast fast-food joint with 15 locations around town a cult fave. If you're extra hungry (and we mean seriously so), go "off menu" and order a "4x4" (four beef patties with four slices of American cheese on a freshly baked bun), and maybe order it "animal-style," with a mustard-grilled beef patty and extra spread with grilled onions.

Chef José Andrés was one of the first to capitalize on the tapas concept in the United States at his original Washington, D.C., location, and small plates are the highlights of his restaurant here, too. You haven't thoroughly explored the menu until there are stacks of plates on your table. There are classic choices like jamon iberico (Spanish ham) and gambas al ajillo (shrimp in garlic). Another highlight: paellas, in at least four varieties. Bring a sense of humor to the main dining room, as some tables are fashioned out of foosball tables that still function perfectly (balls available upon request). For a more formal and intimate experience, try dining in the adjacent "é," an intimate, prix-fixe experience with seats that overlook a separate kitchen.
