NEW AND NOTEWORTHY

Strip restaurants offering a real feast for the senses

Foodies hungry to try someplace new on the Las Vegas Strip will discover several recent restaurant additions to delight one’s senses.

Named after the resort’s founders, Benjamin “Bugsy” Siegel and Meyer Lansky, Bugsy & Meyer’s Steakhouse at Flamingo Las Vegas is one of the Strip’s most delectable new restaurants. The vintage steakhouse features several unique design elements, including a bakery façade that guests enter through and a hidden speakeasy. Steak aficionados can dine on a variety of perfectly seasoned steaks slightly charred in a 1,200-degree broiler, like the tender 8-ounce Prime Rib Cap, and enjoy their selection with a build-yourown Old Fashioned. The steakhouse also serves some of the best side dishes in town, like the tasty Truffle Potato Purée. caesars.com/flamingo-las-vegas/ restaurants/bugsy-and-meyers Michelin-starred chef Shaun Hergatt’s Caviar Bar at Resorts World Las Vegas offers guests another impeccable new dining experience on the Strip. Guests can savor a selection of sumptuous caviar offerings from Hergatt’s Caspy Caviar — including kaluga and Russian golden ossetra — as well as an array of fresh seafood as they dine amid walls comprised of vibrant diamonds.
