27. Saint Honoré Doughnuts & Beignets

Saint Honoré describes his place as the first couture doughnut and beignet patisserie; which of course meant it quickly rose to TikTok fame. There is a variety of tasty treats offered up, from creme brûlée doughs to Nutella Oreo beignets.

28. Freed’s Bakery

29. Carlo’s Bakery

After rising in popular on the tv show “Cake Boss”, Carlo’s Bakery is a great choice for sweet treats in Vegas. His Lobster Tails (a pastry shaped like a lobster, full of French cream and custard) is a must when in the city.

Head to the restaurant in the Eiffel Tower for great views in this unique experience. In honesty, this place does have delicious food but it isn’t as good as some of the high-end places to eat in Vegas, mentioned on this list.

However, the romantic vibe, the view and the experience all add up to a must-do on your Las Vegas bucket list. 

38. Bavette’s

For a fantastic steak, head to this steakhouse located in Park MGM. Expect a dark, moody restaurant with dim-lite corners, creating an eerie but romantic vibe for couples.

Tucked away down a corridor on the third floor of The Cosmopolitan, is Secret Pizza. We originally stumbled across this place when we first stayed at the hotel, 10 years ago!

46. Blackout – Dining in the Dark

I feel like most major cities has some time of dine in the dark experience these days, but the Vegas spot is one of my favorite to experience. You dine in complete darkness, and the server guides you to your seat and where to locate your drink and utensils. 

The offer a seven course meal and you aren’t aware of what you are eating until the end of your meal. This is a unique place to eat in Vegas and a good way to spark conversation with your dining partner as you guess the ingredients and dish. 

47. Back to the 80s Cafe

Be transported to Morocco as this unique spot in Vegas. The restaurant has been offering Mediterranean cuisine since 1979 but it’s the rich colors and textures of the decorated tent that makes this place special. 

Time your visit to experience the live belly dance performances too and we recommend trying the six course prix fixe meal.
