As frequent visitors to Las Vegas, Esther’s remains our top choice for dining with its consistent high quality and innovative menu. The newer larger location now also provides seating options for those of us who prefer to eat at the bar! This week we chose the charcuterie board and the lamb, both of which were top quality. Always recommend this place.
