Red 8

"The short dim sum menu at Red 8 is served in a lavish dining room drenched in rich reds. Priced between $8.88 to $20.88, items include everything wild lotus to fried crab claws and steamed chicken feet. The design in this restaurant is sure to draw the eye between courses, but definitely make sure to look up at the ceiling as you walk through the entryway." - Janna Karel

"Until the Encore Theater at the Wynn lets us bring Red 8’s oxtail soup into the show, you’ll find us here pre-show, post-show (they close at 1am Friday and Saturday and midnight the rest of the week), and probably also post-post show getting takeout because their dumplings taste even better in a hotel bed wearing a robe. But before you get to that part, you’ll sit in a very red space with billowy white curtains that looks fancier than it actually is. Come here whether you’re all dressed up or in something more casual for some really solid Chinese food." - milena difiore

"Outfitted in its namesake color scheme, Red 8 at Wynn is the perfect choice for dim sum fans who prefer mushrooms to har gow. A vegan dim sum menu includes options made with Gardein chick’n. There are also vegetarian entrees like vegan tofu shitake and vegetable fried rice." - Katie Swalm

"From the red walls to the billowy white curtains to the vases that you really want to but definitely shouldn’t touch, Red 8 is one of the classier late-night options in town. At the same time, this Chinese spot in The Wynn manages to be really comfortable and casual so there’s no need to worry about being too loud or whether you’ll feel out of place in whatever you show up wearing. Get the oxtail soup and the spicy pork dumplings to wake yourself up before getting at least one order of pumpkin dumplings - you’ll find yourself telling people at home about them as frequently as you tell that story about riding The Strat’s Big Shot." - Milena DiFiore
