The 38 Essential Restaurants in Las Vegas
"With barely-there lighting, red and black damask wallpaper, and a bar stocked with a veritable century’s worth of cocktail fixin’s, Nectaly Mendoza’s off-Strip steakhouse and bar feels at once romantic and like a 1920s speakeasy. Whether dining at a table or the bar, the move here is steak. Happy hour runs from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. and after midnight — though sometimes it’s all-day, which means your steaks, pork chops, and spicy mussels are likely to be half-priced no matter when you stop in. The cocktail menu here is broken up by decade, so you can start with something like a gin-based Martinez from the Gothic Age, follow up with a Prohibition-era Hemingway daiquiri, and enjoy a painkiller from the tiki boom with dessert." - Janna Karel
