• Southern • The Strip

Booked 31 times today

Visitors to the Las Vegas Strip in the mood for authentic southern cuisine need look no further than the just-like-Grandma-used-to-make dishes of Executive Chef Mario Nichols, a transplant from the kitchen of this restaurant's North Carolina original location. Grandma is real, too: Nellie was the grandmother of Kevin Jonas, Sr., "Papa Jonas" to the fans of his famous sons, and the founder of Nellie's. The food - including freshmade biscuits, shrimp and grits, and chicken and dumplins, shares top billing with Nellie's hospitality and decor. The gorgeous venue, located within the District of MGM Grand, opposite the Grand Garden Arena and close to Wet Republic, Top Golf and the MGM convention center, is open 7 days for lunch and dinner. Come by to watch the game on our HUGE main screen, or to listen to some live music!

• Italian • The Strip

Booked 29 times today

Luchini is an Italian American restaurant reminiscent of classic red sauce joints in the key of Tao Group, known for their scene-making restaurant and nightlife venues worldwide. Luchini’s combo of restaurant, slice shop, and cocktail haunt experience brims with nostalgic charm and suave energy. Chef Ralph Scamardella’s menu reads like a list of nominees for the Red Sauce Hall of Fame featuring Alla Vodka, Manicotti, Parmigiana three different ways and Spumoni in the dining room, and New York-style pizza-by-the-slice from the adjacent shop counter. Inspiration is drawn directly from the tri-state’s familiar no-frills pizza parlors with counter service up front, and an expanded menu of Italian-American comfort food in the back dining room. Luchini also houses a cinematically inspired cocktail lounge accessible through a disguised door in the slice shop that feels like slipping into a Coupe DeVille, stay a while!

Started off that I was late to my reservation. Being such I received a call from the Hostess to confirm if we were still coming. She was very nice a professional over the phone. All others in my party arrived before me so upon my arrival I was nicely greeted by the server and she quickly got me up to speed. She was helpful with the menu and got us all settled in. Food was excellent (Carnitas tacos with black beans) and my Cadillac Margarita was very refreshing after a long day. The restaurant was lively and I can say that I really enjoyed myself.

It was our 30th Wedding Anniversary and they made it very special. The food was excellent however the service was even better. Jessica was a sweetheart and very attentive. With every bite, the food got better and better. And the drinks were so imaginative and tasty. Oh and the desserts - yum! We will definitely make the trip back from Los Angeles to dine in this fantastic place again.
