Wing Lei

"As the first Chinese restaurant in North America to earn a Michelin star and receive a Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Award in multiple years, Wing Lei has an image — and a reputation — to uphold.  Graceful and extremely professional managers and servers ensure that patrons feel special when dining on chef Ming Yu’s elevated cuisine in a lavish gold dining room that evokes a Chinese jewel box.  The highlight here is chef Ming’s signature tasting menu ($227.88 per person), which includes red king crab merus, braised prime short rib, truffle soup dumplings, and Imperial Beijing duck." - Janna Karel, David Yeskel

"Two antique earthquake sensors on clear Lucite bases flank the back bar at Wing Lei at Wynn Las Vegas. The half turtle and half dragon statues move when an earthquake is coming." - Janna Karel

"Several chefs will collaborate for an “East Meets Best” dinner at Wing Lei. Chef Xian Ming Yu from Wing Lei at Wynn Las Vegas will join chef Andre Chiang of Sichuan Moon at Wynn Palace, chef Tam Kwok Fung of Chef Tam’s Seasons at Wynn Palace, chef Henry Zhang of Golden Flower at Wynn Macau, and Chef Jen Yee, the executive pastry chef at Wynn Las Vegas, to prepare the chefs’ takes on haute Chinese cooking. Tickets are $425 per person." - Janna Karel

"There's a lavish Chinese restaurant in my old neighborhood that has a Michelin star, Wing Lei, which is pretty crazy because I used to deliver pizzas in the area around it."

"If you're looking for a place to properly celebrate wins with your friends like “finally engaged after dropping hints for a year” or “getting a promotion because your boss finally realized they'd be lost without you,” come to Wing Lei. Part of the Wynn, this restaurant is perfect for parties who want to post up at large tables and carve into an imperial Peking duck tasting. Discuss the specifics of wedding venue hunting during rounds of peking duck salad, duck shu mai, duck fried rice, and more before you head out for whatever’s next on the itinerary.
