It was there this past fall....
Pork Gyoza?
Definitely wouldn’t have expected such a strong recommendation at Luxor! But will have to put this spot on a list to check out on a future trip. Are the Buffalo ones the best or did you also like another flavor?
As someone that loves wings, Vegas wings recommendations would be awesome!
buffalo style hands down for public house..
Checked out the new Yard House at Sunset Station. Everything was quite good from the service to the food and the beer selection.
Here is the menu:
Lol, yes gyoza is dumplings usually stuffed with minced meat that’s usually pork.
Breakfast at one of my favorite places, The Market Street Cafe at the California Club. Note the virtue signalling: nothing says Healthy Eating more than having brown rice with your Spam & Eggs!
But where's your fruit? Where's your dairy?
Here we go.
Checked out the new Yard House at Sunset Station. Everything was quite good from the service to the food and the beer selection.
Here is the menu:
Get the Spicy Tuna Stack... you'll thank me later
it does indeed
Mother Wolf tonight for my GF's bday. Will report back.
Usually, there are some appetizers that come with the bread, so I get one of those.
Unrelated question for the thread. Is there any difference between the original Oyster Bar at Palace Station and the ones at other locations?

I think so. The closest in flavor for me was at sunset station, some of them aren’t close to palace station.
Great list! I'm definitely going to have to visit one of these spots next time I'm in Vegas!
Re: Oyster Bar...Of the 2 I have tried Sunset Station>>South Point
SP OB is good... but SS and PS OB are better, if you can drive to them.
SP is very close to my pad, so it's my go to OB of choice.
New spot The Guest House at Town Square. Solid overall, expensive for off strip. They’re on the InKind app so overall cost heavily discounted but normally $310 plus tip for two people with what we ordered.
Pro tip - Costco sells $100 credit InKind cards for $60 when they’re on sale. Load up and combo those with the $50 off 150 monthly discounts. Overall cost was about $125 plus tip for a $310 dinner using two $50 off codes by splitting the bill.
Knave cocktail (old fashioned) - 8.5/10
Espresso martini - 7.5/10
Bread - 10/10 incredible
Wagyu pastrami $80 - 10/10
Crab cake $36 - 8.5/10
Chicken tenders $23 - 8.5/10
Steak tartare $27 - 8/10
Spicy rigatoni $32 - 8/10
100 layer cake $18 - 9/10
Make sure to get the focaccia, margherita pizza, rigatoni alla gricia, and pistachio gelato if they have it. Best things on the menu.
we did get TWO foccacias...it was great. I had the risotta croquettes and the linguini a limon - it was excellent....my GF had a beautiful salad and the pizza margherita - and they were both excellent. We were both too full for dessert lol but I did have an espresso.
The only thing I would complain about was that the wine list is not for people who want to share a bottle under the $100 price point and the wines by the glass were also absurdly expensive. $50 for a glass of Chardonnay? Come on.
We did get two glasses of their cheapest red - a Piemonte Barolo at $19 a glass. Not bad, but a limiting choice.
With tip, $250....seems a bit much for what we got. Great food, though.
$50 for a glass of any white is insane! (I wouldn't pay it for a glass of red, either, FWIW.)
Haven’t had any wine at MW since their cocktails are so good. Best espresso martini I’ve found in Vegas and their version of an old fashioned is solid too.
You’ve gotta go back and get the rigatoni alla gricia. Prob best thing on the menu and one of the best dishes I’ve had in Vegas overall.
