The buffets are still there, but nowadays, Las Vegas is so much more. Creating branches of originals based in Napa, New York, San Francisco, and beyond, some of the world’s best chefs have made Las Vegas a culinary tour of the world. Add to that the western places where you can still get a good cup of joe to go with freshly scrambled eggs and bacons and some truly bountiful buffets, and you have an idea of the mix of options in this little guide, which crosses Road Food with Zagat but with complete cartography of the entire city on two PopOut maps. It’s all the luck any Vegas traveler will need to hit the road.
Sophisticated reviews, neighborhood maps marked to show restaurant locations, and a full city's worth of detailed popout maps on the inside front and back covers will help travelers zero in on good meals wherever they are. A section of top picks highlights best choices citywide for culinary palaces, steak houses, buffets, local favorites, and the like in a town whose dining scene has been completely transformed during the last few years by an influx of superstar chefs. Restaurant suggestions are completely independent, provided by an experienced local critic. And it's all backed by the know-how of Where magazine, which has been guiding travelers since 1936. .
