Opened in November of 2019 Les Petites Canailles sees former Guy Savoy Chef Julien Asseo and his wife Courtney operating under their own rules, white tablecloths replaced by a more casual sort of spot where the Food and service are still exceptional at a modest price point.

Part of a growing collection of locally-driven eateries on Spring Street, downtown Paso Robles nearly so charming as Asseo’s hometown in Southern France, the Restaurant named after his “little rascals” actually represents something of a homecoming for the Chef whose father helped pioneer local winemaking at L’Aventure.

Trained outside Bordeaux before returning to work with the likes of Rick Moonen, Joel Robuchon and Guy Savoy in Las Vegas, Julien’s considerable skill-set on full display at Les Petites Canailles, guests are invited to dine a la carte or to “Trust Us” with a 6-course tasting for $125.

“Fancy-casual” per the husband and wife team, a collection of Wines ranging from Krug to locally made Caliza Grenache earning distinction from Wine Specator, dinner begins with properly made Gougeres followed by one-bite Canapes including an Oyster with Kumquat and Pea Tartelette crowned in Caviar.

Adding a few daily specials, “Bougie Tots” the very definition of fancy-casual, Steak Tartare features a fine grind and traditional flavors while Tarte Flambée emerges from the oven Cracker thin and with all the tang of Fromage Blanc to make it feel like a trip to Paris.

Clearly taking notes from his mentors, Pomme Purée a la Robuchon an eponymous homage served with Gravy, in the know diners will not miss “Peas All Around” cribbed from Guy Savoy with even more nuance while Leeks à la Plancha are an Asseo-original worthy of signature status.

Sticking more to Appetizers on this visit to maximize variety, though Mussels with a kiss of Calabrian Sausage proved too compelling to miss, Escargot Risotto is generously portioned and faultless in texture before finishing with Desserts including “Strawberries & Pistachio” that remind guests that Julien started out in Pastry.

Finca, Paso Robles CA

Finca

Pineapple agua fresca

guacamole and chips

carne asada taco – Sonora style oak grilled steak on a flour tortilla, topped with cilantro, onions & guacamole salsa

duck al pastor taco – Mary’s free range duck marinated al pastor with piña jarabe, onions, cilantro & pickled jalapeño

wood grilled octopus taco – salsa macha, aioli, cabbage

cilantro rice

baja shrimp burrito – beer battered and fried shrimp, cilantro rice, pico de gallo, cabbage and chipotle crema

Part of a steadily growing number of Chef-driven eateries in Paso Robles Finca comes from Stephanie and Patrick Aguirre along with their son Diego, its location inside Old Hometown Nursery’s historic farmhouse just steps from the Lofts at the Market.

Spanish for “estate,” or in this case farm, counter-style service and limited interior seating part of Finca’s charm, Chef Aguirre’s training includes the likes of Suzanne Goin and Thomas Keller while California’s central coast yields a bounty of Fish, Meat and Produce.

Offering Baja style quick-casual Mexican Food since May of 2021, Avocados from Morro Bay mashed into under-seasoned Guacamole with freshly made Chips, ownership focuses on local Wines and spirits across a menu of beverages including housemade Agua Fresca with flavors that change daily.

Pricey for what it is, though ownership clearly cares about local businesses from Mary’s Poutry to Octopus and Shrimp from independent California fishermen, guests can choose to sit indoors or on a porch out front while dining on wood-grilled Steak or a California-style Burrito filled with battered Shrimp.

Attuned to the flavor profile of its target audience, namely the sort of people touring Paso Robles’ wineries, those expecting spicy Mexican cuisine need to keep this in mind as Jalapenos largely come pickled while other Peppers are tempered by Cream, leaving dishes like the Duck al Pastor nearly too sweet.

Emmanuel’s Bakery

Pan Dulce

Tres Leches Cake

Located on the corner of East Truxtun and Haley in East Bakersfield Emmanuel’s Bakery is not the sort of place seeking headlines, but for locals and passers-by in need of freshly baked Pan Dulce the family-owned space offers everything one might want at a fair price.

Open at 4:30am daily for decades, neither the interior nor outside suggesting luxury, guests are invited to load their tray with tongs from either the plastic cases or freshly made trays ready to restock supplies until evening.

Traditional in its offerings, Concha and Guava Empanadas both residing adjacent tricolor Cookies and Pastel, Emmanuel’s Donuts are light and fluffy while choices like Orejas and Besos are better than what one might expect in an area with little competition.

A proud part of the local community, staff exceedingly friendly even when English is limited, Flan and Tres Leches hide at the far left of a cold case but are certainly worth asking for as the latter offers an open Sponge with less sweet Sauce than most plus Fruits including Strawberries or Mandarin Oranges.

Currently Chef James Trees’ sixth Las Vegas venture, and the first proper Restaurant in a Casino following quick-casual concepts at The Strat and Resorts World, High Steaks Vegas opened in October 2025 replacing VooDoo Steak & VooDoo Lounge atop the Rio’s Masquerade Tower.

At one time a premier Off-Strip destination for locals and tourists alike, High Steaks and other new eateries see casino brass attempting to resurrect a derelict property with free parking, affordable Alcohol and the sort of Food worth getting excited about.

Visited very early, service and expediting predictably green across an immense dining room, six month’s practice now sees High Steaks’ front of house humming while panoramic views of Las Vegas come at a fraction of the cost of Top of The World, Foundation Room or whatever replaces Vetri at The Palms.

No doubt a space willing to take chances to capture locals, a bottle of Malbec nearly 67%-off compared to a Strip Steakhouse visited three days, housemade Bread offers a stretchy surface complimented by Mustard Butter while several sizes of Seafood Tower deliver Prawns and Crudo plus the usual Lobster, Oysters and Crab.

Taking on several common themes for Starters, Bar Boheme’s French Onion Soup ported over perfectly to the Rio, Bone Marrow delivers immense impact while Crab Cakes and Bacon are enjoyable if not “wowing” in comparison to a tangle of Spring Peas and “Fried Artichokes” that riff on classic Spinach and Artichoke Dip with impressive results.

Not an “Italian Steakhouse,” though Trees and team smartly flex their muscles with a couple of Pastas, diners tired of the same ol’ Steak & Salmon will love “The Hunt” with Boar, Elk, Venison and “Lion” in the form of a Vegan-friendly Mushroom treated to a multi-step process that will impress Carnivores, as well.

Offering 18oz of Tasmanian Wagyu Ribeye for less than $90, unheard of in this city post-Pandemic, Salisbury Steak is now gone due to poor sales while Fried Chicken is first brined and smoked for great depth of flavor.

Recently adding seasonal Tortellini with Scallops, a dish that would not be out of place at Esther’s, current sides range from Creamed Spinach to Asparagus with King Crab and Spuds baked, mashed, fried or dressed up plus Radiatore alla Vodka.

Not forgetting Head-on Branzino, grilled and brightened by Cumin and Coriander Honey, Chef Jake Yergensen’s Desserts continue to set a high bar as High Steaks’ “Piecaken” straddles a fine line between French Silk and Black Forest while the Souffle and Donuts with impeccable Coconut Ice Cream are enjoyable, but not quite on the level of Hummingbird Cake made exactly as it aught to be.

Paymon’s Fresh Kitchen and Lounge Catering [6,] Las Vegas NV

Paymon’s Fresh Kitchen and Lounge

Hummus

Pita Bread

Broiled Chicken Kabob – roasted tomato, sautéed vegetables, potatoes, vermicelli pilaf

Koobideh Kabob – roasted tomato, sautéed vegetables, potatoes, vermicelli pilaf

Fesenjan

Baklava

Rice Pudding

Serving Las Vegas since 1988 Paymon’s Restaurant is as close as it gets to a local “institution,” its longevity attributable to fair prices and the sort of Food that is “ethnic” but familiar and focused on good products made fresh daily.

A labor of love from Paymon Raouf, the decision to change from a “Mediterranean Café” to a “Fresh Kitchen and Lounge” in 2020 seeing the menu expand into Indian and Italian options, plates still focus on healthy preparation eschewing additives and preservatives with options to suit most dietary preferences.

Ordered as delivery, everything arriving temperature appropriate in individual packaging, the first thing one will notice is that instead of just Rice the Kabobs arrive with Roasted Vegetables and Potatoes with limited Salt but lots of seasoning to match moist but well-cooked Meats.

Teamed with Jeff Ecker since 2000, a number of accolades earned since, Paymon’s Hummus arrives smooth with lots of Garlic matched to Tahini, though Pita is unfortunately no better than the store bought stuff.

Looking next at Fesenjan, decent but a far cry from Zaytoon in terms of taste or consistency, dueling Desserts perform well whether one prefers thick Baklava with Walnuts or large-grain Rice Pudding with Whipped Cream on top that eats light like the versions in France.

Founded in early 2021 Milpa has come a long way since it took over the former Elia space at 4226 South Durango Drive, Chef DJ Flores’ embrace of traditional techniques with an eye towards health-conscious cooking earning a James Beard Award semi-finalist nod in 2024.

Open daily for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner with an odd location in the lot of a Strip-mall, easily missed despite the fact that Chef Flores is cooking some of the best contemporary Mexican Cuisine in Sin City, guests will find the interior quaint while service is both efficient and charming.

Recently forming Nivel Hospitality Group with Aaron Cappello, their bar called Nocturno earning positive reviews in the Arts District, Milpa remains part Molino and part sit-down Café with stone-ground housemade Tortillas and slowly-braised Meats a point of pride.

Simple in signage, Milpa Mexican Cafe in yellow over the door, most Entrees hover in the $15-20 range with both Barbacoa and Beef Birria with Consomme showing the sort of depth one might expect of a Vegas native with skills developed under thinkfoodgroup and Too Hot Tamales before staging at Quintonil in Mexico City.

Achieving the rare trifecta of healthy, affordable and delicious, all while utilizing time honored techniques plus many local Ingredients, handmade Tortillas are medium-thick, soft and with the perfect amount of flex while Corn Esquites paired to Chips channel Elotes minus all the Mayonnaise.

Crab + Spinach Benedict – ‘Nduja, Garlic Confit, Old Bay Hollandaise, Poached Egg

Truffle Polenta – Sunny Side Eggs, Roasted Mushrooms, Frico Chip

Butterscotch Budino – Whiskey Caramel, Honeycomb, Whipped Cream

Last visited for Brunch in December of 2025 Sunday afternoon once again found Esther’s Kitchen firing on all cylinders, the frequently-changing menu filled with past favorites in addition to new plates executed at a fair price with exacting standards.

Now serving Las Vegas for over eight years, every available superlative already used to describe James Trees’ Restaurant that revitalized the Art’s District, it was with a packed house that four guests sat near the bar with Coffee from Vesta, Cocktails and Dylan Jobsz’s city-best Sourdough beneath various toppings starting things off.

Seasonal and rustic in a good way, Pork and Cheese Biscuits not pretty but wholly delicious even without Butter, suffice it to say that Maple Sausage Gravy and Eggs add an extra layer of decadence while toasts beneath soft-scrambled Eggs or Ricotta with Jam are comforting and delicious.

More savory than sweet this time, spicy Cauliflower without the Anchovies for a Vegan as good as the original, Esther’s can also modify their Margherita to those who eschew Animal products while the current Roasted Mushroom Pizza is a masterpiece of taste and texture.

Heartier with Blue Crab kissed by Calabrian Sausage beneath Eggs plus Old Bay Hollandaise, the sort of dish that might have a native Italian muttering and gesturing before realizing just how well it all works together, one should never forget Polenta ground on-site beneath a crispy Cheese lattice nor the seasonal Pancakes that stand tall and fluffy with a Custard center.

A lot of Food for not much cash, all of it rooted in technique but never compromising flavor for looks, Dessert consisted of Esther’s forever refining Butterscotch Budino times two – because one is never enough – plus a thick wedge of French Toast loaded with Cinnamon finding its foil in Cream Cheese and Cherries.

Last visited in November, a total of thirty times prior including a yearly tradition, it was alongside seven others on Saturday night that Jean Georges Steakhouse once again found the kitchen executing at an unmatched level.

Toqued by Chef Sean Griffin since 2015, including a renovation that upgraded decor and serviceware for pristine Proteins and Produce, guests entering Jean Georges Steakhouse are greeted first at a podium before being led to spot-lit tables, the mood upscale but never stuffy while prices track similar to other like-Restaurants that feature far less impressive Ingredients.

Decorated in gold, and buzzing with activity, it was at the Chef’s Table that carte blanche was deferred to the kitchen, Beverages quickly followed by buttery Loaves of Brioche and familiar appetizers such as truffled Wagyu Carpaccio atop Pate a Choux plus “Crispy Sushi” and signature Egg Toast.

Throwing Chef Griffin a curve-ball this time, two guests Pescatarian and one Vegan, off-menu Specials came first in the form of Morels stuffed with Peas and fermented Peppers followed by Avocado “Sushi” and three dishes showcasing early-season organic Asparagus.

Always inventive, Foie Gras with Harry’s Berries and textural elements absolutely stunning, Salads served as a segue to grilled Meats, the iconic Hearts of Palm and Tomatoes praised by all for its brightness while Frisee with Mangoes and Caesar lightened the load before NY Strip and Filet of F1 Wagyu cooked Medium Rare.

Not forgetting two more Steaks, domestic Prime Ribeye plus an 8oz Mishima Reserve Wagyu Rib Cap, the sides never fail to impress – nor does Vongerichten’s Sea Bass or Prawns on this night with Ramp Butter and Herbs.

Adding a few seasonal sides, spicy Spring Peas and foraged Mushrooms both upgrading their humble Ingredients, Vegan Morel Risotto and Morels with Ramps in three forms threatened to steal the spotlight from even the Steaks.

Rarely rethinking the sweet stuff Dessert again saw Creme Brulee with seasonal Sorbet plus old favorites down the line, Chef Vongerichten’s Chocolate Cake served with tableside theatrics and followed by Cheesecake plus an exceptional Strawberry Crostada.

Meraki Greek Grill Catering [17,] Las Vegas NV

Meraki Greek Grill

Beef and Lamb Gyro

Chicken Gyro

Pita

Greek Rice

French Fries

Mama’s Rice Pudding

Baklava – Phyllo, Walnuts, Honey

Formerly a regular part of the lunch rotation, Estiatorio Milos Chef Nikos Georgousis and Girair ‘Jerry’ Goumroian of Henderson’s The Great Greek all-but rescuing the plaza on Rainbow at Tropicana in early 2017, it was once again that Meraki was ordered on Tuesday.

Nothing less than an Off-Strip sensation since opening its doors guests may now opt for dine-in or take-out from any of six locations, Meraki’s servings always more than generous and prices affordable even as prices everywhere rise.

Defined as “doing something with soul, creativity and love,” a spirit embodied by courteous employees, it was at noon that employees arrived to easy-stacking boxes containing temperature-control trays, this simple extra step guaranteeing Food is indistinguishable from that served inside the Restaurant.

Serving a diverse crowd, but doing so with an impressive spread of Proteins, Produce and imported Ingredients, Hummus remains a highlight in terms of taste and texture while tangy Tzatziki shines thanks to “authentic” Greek Yogurt.

This time putting plenty of Feta on Meraki’s Salads, just the it aught to be, Greek Rice receives high praise for its fluffiness and flavor while the Gyro kit allowed ample customization of marinated Chicken or Gyro Meat with Tomatoes, Lettuce and Onion

Happy to find no shortage of Pita, soft and warm rounds gratuitously slathered with dueling Spreads, Vegetarians can choose crisp and oilless Potatoes lightly perfumed by Herbs or two-bite Falafel that are light but toothsome and fragrant with Garlic as well as Cilantro.

Not forgetting Dessert, Mama’s Rice Pudding always a staff favorite, Honey-soaked Baklava rife with Walnuts is also highly recommended and arguably the best in Sin City.

MEJILLONES A LA MOJARRA – MUSSELS COOKED IN A HOUSE SALSA

BEANS & RICE

CORN TORTILLAS

FLAN

Now with several local locations, the original on Maryland Parkway almost universally with a wait from noon until close, La Mojarra Loca Grill is a rarity in Las Vegas that continues to thrive with no reservations, no website and no handouts to “influencers,” “content creators” and others.

Popular with local Hispanics, live music and festive directions paired to friendly service, it was as a party of eleven that a guest’s 60th birthday was celebrated at a long table where Food was as plentiful as the bottles of Modelo served in ice buckets.

Trendy without being excessive, the bar a raucous affair complete with Happy Hour, La Mojarra Loca Grill’s menu spans from traditional Mexican Food to unique Sushi items that seem less out of place once one sees an enormous plate of Ceviche or punchbowl Coctel de Camaron.

Generous with Chips and Salsa, the later packing a punch, Drinks include a multitude of Margaritas alongside inspired options such as a Rumchata Colada that helps quell the heat of Appetizers such as the Mussels cooked in vibrant Sauce or Refritos mixed with Chorizo drippings.

Not overlooking Oysters topped in citrusy-Shrimp, a signature for good reason, Entrees range from famous grilled Prawns and Menudo to grilled Meats or faultless Molcajete served in several styles and sizes for prices about 1/3 what one might pay on Las Vegas Boulevard.

Debuted in 2025 at Boca Park and open 24-hours Pinkbox Doughnuts remains Las Vegas’ premier spot for unique Doughnuts, just as it has since debuting over a decade ago.

More and more social-media savvy over the years this visit entailed far beyond the usual “OG Classics,” and although PinkBox’s Old Fashioned Cogwheels are still Las Vegas’ best additional traditional choices are mostly as expected making “Fancy Pancy” or “Show Off” choices a necessity.

Fully committed to clever nomenclature, Roberto Armanino’s famous Caramel Cheesecake now “The Caramelo,” “Mr. Blueberry” succeeds thanks to the homemade Filling and plenty of complexity while “What’s Up Doc” uses Walnuts for texture atop a Ring with bold aromatics.

Replenishing supply as necessary, high volume assuring everything is fresh, Fritters both achieve high marks while “Poppin’ Tart’” eats like its namesake with better ingredients.

Pork Belly Vindaloo – Spiced porridge, maitake, snow crab

Torreja Helada – Queso de oveja, tomates nixtamalizados, caramelo de Jerez

Tableside Marshmallow Fudge

Best described as a more personal project from Chef Oscar Amador the space on Jones and Spring Mountain was reborn as Amador Cocina Fina on 11/1/2025, eight years after EDO Gastro Tapas & Wine abruptly reshaped what Sin City felt Spanish Food was capable of.

A James Beard Award-nominiated Chef with roots in Catalonia, his Anima by EDO and Seattle’s La Loba soon to be joined by Braseria by EDO and EDO Gastropub, Amador Cocina Fina sees Oscar step outside EDO Hospitality for a one-off focused on Food instead of management with Chef regularly on the line doing what he loves.

“More Latin, more me cooking anything I want to cook” per Chef, the refrigerator of dry aging Fish up front and a caddy of labor intensive Condiments on each table just a few examples, Amador’s opening menu showed a man happy to stretch his legs while a collaboration between Oscar and Braseria by EDO Chef Roberto Higuera as part of the “Dialogue” series further sought to push Las Vegas’ dining scene forward.

Leche Flan Brioche

Leche Flan Creme Brulee Donut

Risen like a phoenix from the ashes of Ramir Bolanos DeCastro’s beloved Purple Potato it is as a Bakery that the former Yonaka Chef’s legacy continues to grow via Donuts, Cookies, Ube-based treats and Filipino Pastries.
Previously offered for delivery or takeout only, but now brick and mortar at 6370 W Flamingo Rd #20, it was Tuesday that seventeen items were procured for tasting and shared by a group during workhours.
Never actually gone from the local food scene, the rebranding of Yonaka and Purple Potato followed by a consulting gig at LAS, Chef DeCastro’s current lineup continues with Croissant, Ring and Polvoron Bismarck Donuts, each day featuring a dozen varieties ranging from Pistachio to Salted Yema and several styles featuring Flan.

Du-par’s Restaurant and Bakery (Suncoast,) Las Vegas NV

Du-Par’s

Avocado, Bacon & Jack Burger – lettuce, tomato, smoked bacon, avocado, monterey jack cheese, crinkle fries

The Californian – grilled chicken breast, smoked bacon, avocado, mayo, tomato, lettuce, swiss cheese, french roll, crinkle fries

Pot Pie – poached chicken, green peas, carrots, celery, potatoes, chicken gravy, pastry crust

French Dip – sliced tri-tip, warm brioche roll, au jus

Vegas Stack – Buttermilk Hotcakes, Maple Syrup

Biscuits – Jam

Cinnamon Roll

Banana Bread

German Chocolate Cheesecake

Opened in 1938 at Los Angeles original 3rd and Fairfax Farmers Market Du-par’s can safely be called iconic, its nine seats since expanded to several locations including a 24-hour spot inside Las Vegas’ Suncoast Hotel & Casino.

The combination of James Dunn and Edward Parsons’ last names, now owned by former server Francis Tario, it is under the Boyd Gaming label that guests at 9090 Alta Drive can expect familiar vinyl booths and classic diner staples.

Recently renovated along with much of the local casino, a walk from parking past slots and tables all too familiar for many, peak times may find a brief wait during which patrons are tempted by freshly-baked goods including several Pies and a towering Cinnamon Roll liberally slathered in Frosting.

Not to be mistaken with Las Vegas Boulevard, fair prices and leisurely service comparable to spots like Babystacks or Omelet House, Coffee and Water are kept full throughout while Food ranges from an exceptional Pot Pie beneath buttery Crust to a French Dip that is frankly overcooked and flavorless sans Jus.

Best known for “World Famous” Pancakes, the original recipe still unchanged since opening, suffice it to say a “Vegas Stack” of three is the go-to as each is simultaneously thick yet light with intrinsic sweetness to the custard-like center – though zealots should plan to bring their own real Maple Syrup from home if possible.
