Centra

The 38 Best Restaurants in Las Vegas | Eater Vegas

"Chef José Andrés’s Bazaar Mar is a stellar destination for seafood, with a market display case for selecting red snappers and amberjacks to be meticulously sliced for sashimi or whole-baked in sea salt. But for a slightly more casual experience with equally superb dishes, journey downstairs to Andrés’s Bar Centro. In a first for the restaurant group, Bar Centro opens at 8 a.m. as a sophisticated coffee shop — the only one of its kind on the Las Vegas Strip. Mornings here call for coffee and loose-leaf tea. While there is no shortage of quick-service coffee carts on Las Vegas Boulevard, Bar Centro takes its coffee seriously, diligently preparing pour-overs of Costa Rica-sourced coffee and steaming silky lattes. They practically demand to be ordered alongside laminated spiral ensaïmada pastries filled with supple strawberries and not-too-sweet whipped cream. Evenings here are for perusing through the illustrated cocktail menu and ordering small plates also available on the Bazaar Mar menu, like Neptune’s Pillows – crispy pockets of bread filled with tuna sashimi — and the iconic José’s tacos — strips of nori laden with jamón Ibérico de bellota, Ossetra caviar, and gleaming gold leaf. —Janna Karel, editor, Eater Southern California/Southwest Best for: Savoring a nice espresso while working remotely" - Matthew Kang
