Top Best American Restaurants in North Las Vegas

"The closest you are going to get to a classic New York rooftop bar is tucked away at the top of this dining destination. Besides being one of the premiere eateries Downtown, Carson Kitchen carries on founder Kerry Simon’s legacy with an atmosphere of sophisticated fun. The rooftop is like a destination within a destination, perfect for some of their famous bacon jam with baked brie and toasted baguette or an innovative cocktail."

"With a special skill for classic American cuisine and handcrafted cocktails, Carson Kitchen is a pillar of the Las Vegas outdoor dining experience. Since they opened in 2014, the restaurant has spent years perfecting their menu and enhancing their outdoor rooftop and bar. Their menu is full of delicious bites including their butter burger and secret Sunday chicken sandwich."

"Downtown’s Carson Kitchen offers two patios, including one on the rooftop. Diners can order crispy chicken skins or bacon jam, or grab a beer from the list that includes local breweries."

"Another Gordon Ramsay creation, the Pineapple Carpaccio at Hell’s Kitchen, is an unusual yet impressive dessert. Be wowed by a foaming cloud of liquid nitrogen that gives way to thinly sliced pineapple served with coconut sorbet, passionfruit, and coriander. If you’re more of a traditionalist and would rather skip the food show, opt for the Coconut Three Ways, which comprises coconut sorbet, passion fruit caramel, and coconut cake."

"Fans of Gordon Ramsay’s hit show will adore Hell’s Kitchen, which opened in early 2018 at Caesars Palace. It’s Ramsay’s fifth Las Vegas restaurant, but the first that attempts to replicate his studio set. A life-sized video of the intense television personality greets you at the door, and then you walk into an immersive experience whose details will be immediately recognizable to regular viewers."

"Gordon Ramsay’s TV show Hell’s Kitchen was such a huge success that Chef Ramsay decided to open a restaurant of the same name here in Las Vegas. The eatery draws inspiration from t..."

"Yardbird feels like a combination of honky-tonk and family dining room, which is the perfect atmosphere for its Southern food. They're most well-known for their fried chicken, which is amazingly juicy. Food is served on platters that make for easy sharing."

"The Peppermill is one of those long-standing Las Vegas traditions that you simply must try at least once in your lifetime. Guests gather at the lounge for fireside chats and classic cocktails, while diners settle in velvet booths to enjoy country fried steak and eggs, omelets and savory chicken parm. This is Vegas old-school, yet the tradition continues with 24-hour dining and daily happy hour."

"The 24-hour Fireside Lounge inside the Peppermill is more kitsch than stupendous drinks. The cozy booths make the perfect spot for making out, while a coveted seat around the fire pit will net comes with a view of the flames spewing from the white waters. Specialty cocktails here come in goblets the size of a soccer ball with straws so long that customers could stand up and sip."

"The Peppermill Restaurant & Fireside Lounge is one of my favorite restaurants on the Las Vegas Strip. This iconic diner, located just north of the Venetian near Resorts World and Circus Circus, dates back to 1972. Its unique old school interior featuring mirrored ceilings, bright purple and blue upholstered booths, fake trees, and neon lights is worth the visit alone."

"Burger fans can rejoice as they chow down on these delicious patties featuring fresh, 100 percent Certified Angus Beef. There are a variety of burgers to choose from, each juicy, scrumptious and perfect to fill that classic craving."

"The Louisiana native scores high on the list due to his longevity, as well as the variety and quality of his creations. Emeril Lagasse's New Orleans Fish House has been at the MGM Grand for more than 20 years now (which might as well be a hundred years in Las Vegas terms) and is still competitive, with frequent menu updates. The chef who made "Bam!" a common kitchen phrase can also boast the whiskey-soaked Delmonico Steakhouse at The Venetian, and over at the Palazzo, Table 10 and the Lagasse's Stadium sports bar."

"If your kids love seafood, then this is definitely one restaurant you won’t want to miss during your Las Vegas trip. Emeril’s New Orleans Fish House features delicious comfort food that is inspired by American Southern and New Orleans style seafood cuisine. Menu options include delicious crab legs, shrimp po-boy sandwiches, chopped salads, hearty gumbo, steaks, hand-cut fries and an array of dessert options include banana cream pie, cheesecake, bread pudding and more."

"We’d be amiss if Emeril’s New Orleans’ style desserts didn’t make this list, and his banana cream pie tops the list. A staple since the inception of his restaurant, this banana cream pie is rich and thick, with three pounds of bananas in each pie. If one taste of Emeril’s banana cream pie keeps you longing for more after you’ve left Vegas, check out the Food Network’s website to find the recipe and try your hand at it when you get home."

"If your children love to explore the outdoors and want to know what it might be like to walk through a rainforest, this free rainforest atrium at the Mirage Hotel might be just the (free) ticket!. The atrium features a 20,000 gallon saltwater aquarium with tons of aquatic wildlife, and just behind the aquarium is a tropical rainforest complete with lagoons, a waterfall, and tons of stunning tropical plants, flowers and more. Kids who love gardens and the outdoors will love to imagine they’re heading through a real jungle as you make your way through this free indoor rainforest garden."
