"You might think there’s nothing left to discover about a contemporary seafood and steakhouse with 18 locations across the country. But the new Ocean Prime outpost, which is the anchor tenant of 63, the new luxury retail development within the mixed-use CityCenter, is energizing the dining scene here. Its interior, in shades of tan and blue with a ceiling that evokes a sculptural, abstracted seashell is clubby and intimate. But its 2,500-square-foot wraparound dining terrace with Strip views is a winner in a city that has fewer al fresco dining spots than you might imagine. Order a dramatic seafood tower with waves of dry ice “smoke” rolling off the top, plus a great selection of crudo and sushi before digging into entrees like blackened snapper with corn spoonbread or cuts of filet mignon, ribeye, and dry-aged wagyu broiled at 1200 degrees. Only the Las Vegas location offers a lounge menu with vodka service, a Champagne hour and dishes like chips and caviar dip. It recently launched a luxury gin cart, as well, highlighting a global array of gin cocktails." - Andrea Bennett
