Life’s a party in Las Vegas. And there’s no celebrity chef more synonymous with that word than Guy Fieri, a man who celebrates the joys of eating everywhere he goes (and he goes everywhere, demonstrated on shows like Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives). And he wants to help you celebrate while you’re in town at his restaurant Guy Fieri’s Vegas Kitchen & Bar.
The space itself puts you in a festive mood—an airy space that pops with color, highlighted by brick walls and wood floors. You’ll be planning your cocktail order before you even sit down, and the options here are just as you’d expect at a Fieri restaurant—fun and over the top. If you’re with a larger group, try one of his “Party Bowlas,” libations served in a large bowl. The Gone Fishing combines Absolut Raspberri vodka, blue Curacao, triple sec, coconut water, lemonade … and Swedish Fish!
From there, share some apps with your tablemates. A huge fan favorite is the Trash Can Nachos, delivered in a large metal pitcher with a retractable bottom. They spill out onto your plate, piled high with house-smoked pork, SMC (super-melty cheese), pickled red onions and much more. We also recommend the jalapeño pig poppers, stuffed with andouille sausage and cheese, and wrapped in maple bacon and glazed with Fieri’s signature bourbon brown sugar barbecue sauce.
Save some room for a burger! The bacon mac ’n’ cheeseburger is a revelation, topped with six-cheese mac ’n’ cheese, onion straws, applewood bacon, SMC and “donkey sauce.” (Want the recipe? Sorry, what happens in Vegas …)
Either of Fieri’s desserts will test your appetite, from the Cheesecake Challenge (half a New York-style beast topped with potato chips, pretzels and hot fudge) to the seven-layer dark chocolate whiskey cake (you must be 21 or older to partake in this one.)
