Best Nightlife in Mount Charleston

"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."

"From the day it opened its doors in 2014, Carson Kitchen has been known as one of the best places to eat in Downtown Las Vegas. The modern restaurant features a casual urban design, sleek industrial tables, and a stunning outdoor rooftop patio for diners to enjoy the trendy downtown atmosphere. This is an excellent place for groups as their menu offers social plates for sharing."

"Chef Kerry Simon has established a destination restaurant with his Carson Kitchen in Downtown Las Vegas. The modern gastropub is serving twists on standard dishes like the gyro tacos pictured above. Stylish and sleek, the late Chef Kerry Simon’s Carson Kitchen is proof of Downtown Las Vegas continuing renaissance."

"A Las Vegas nightclub staple for almost fifteen years, the Tao Nightclub – located in the Venetian – is a massive 60,000 square foot destination that is perfect for couples of all ages and interests. More than just a lounge, this Asian-themed nightclub has a restaurant and sushi bar on-site as well. The nightclub itself is a celebrity hotspot, and often even-numbered groups will get in free of charge, which is a great way to save a little date night cash to use toward drinks or even gambling if that’s your style."

"An extension of Tao nightclub, Tao Beach is a poolside oasis that’s kept private, exclusive, and separate from the rest of the sprawling pool complex at the Venetian & Palazzo resorts. The venue closed in 2020 for renovations (planned before the pandemic) and has yet to announce an opening date for 2021. When it returns, expect Tao Beach to be better than ever with high-end luxury cabanas and an Asian theme still in place."

"Enjoy a menu of elevated Pan-Asian fare that incorporates culinary components from China, Japan and Thailand at this upscale hip Asian dining location brought to you by its trendsetting sister restaurant in New York. Diners are invited to stay and party afterwards at this legendary nightclub."

"Parisian romance with a glitzy Vegas sparkle makes the Eiffel Tower Restaurant a must-visit for your special occasion on the Strip. Introduce your partner to a trilogy of imported caviar before nibbling on fricassée d’escargot. A Rossini-style filet mignon with foie gras and truffle sauce sets the mood for the grand finale: a chocolate Eiffel Tower soufflé."

"One of those Las Vegas restaurants with a view, this Eiffel Tower restaurant offers you the charm of Paris in the Sin City. The place is charming and undoubtedly romantic. They have both lunch and dinner option available with two and three courses, and the former is cheaper than the latter if budget is your concern."

"Drai’s after-hours venue offers a more intimate experience|© Hugh Threlfall / Alamy Stock Photo. Drai’s has been a staple of Las Vegas for so long that it’s become known as the city’s longest-running nightclub. Since 1997, Drai’s signature style has been giving local people and tourists a place to kick back and enjoy an upscale atmosphere long after all other nightclubs have closed their doors for the day."

"Hip-hop headliners, pool, and views from 11 stories above the Strip If you're looking for a club with great views, Drai's is the best choice -- day or night. The party destination is on the top floor of the Cromwell hotel with sweeping views of the Strip. (Pull out your phone and start snapping.) The main stage is indoors although acts often perform on the outdoor pool deck as well."

"Sitting atop the Cromwell like a glowing, palm tree-studded crown is Drai’s, the pool party and nightclub from legendary impresario Victor Drai. Visit during the day and the pool is the center of attention, surrounded by lounge chairs and two levels of cabanas. Or come at night, when the breeze and the vibe render it an entirely different experience."

"After a hard day of sight-seeing on the Strip or shopping at the Fashion Show Mall, Stripburger & Chicken will give you a place to refuel and take in a view of the Strip. The restaurant is all-outdoors, and its Strip-side location allow you to indulge in some people watching while you enjoy a classic burger, cheeseburger, or chicken sandwich. The mini burger sampler gives you three small burgers--the blue cheese, the whiskey barbeque and the cheddar burger--perfect for sharing."

"This sibling-owned cocktail bar has been known for its cozy vintage furniture, dark and maximalist aesthetic, and mystical cocktail masterclasses since it opened. But recently it opened an outdoor patio that’s intimate, airy, and (most importantly) very, very pink. Aside from the 12 beers on-tap and seasonal cocktail menu, Velveteen Rabbit offers private event planning for all kinds of groups who want to rent out the outdoor patio."

"If you’re looking for a special bar experience, visit Velveteen Rabbit. The menu hosts delicious cocktails with unique ingredients, names, and stories. This bar is sure to stand out from the rest in downtown and we don’t think you’ll want to miss it."

"The posh new Red Plate at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas brings upscale Chinese dining to the resort. Roasted meats, Chinese hot pot and dim sum are menu highlights, but the selections cover a wide range. Starting dishes include a King Crab spring roll, crispy tofu with fried garlic or abalone in cold sake."

"Channeling the see-and-be-seen vibe of its original Beverly Hills location, Mr. Chow at Caesar’s Palace brings style to the Strip. The famous hand-pulled noodles, which chefs live demonstrate in front of guests, are practically mandatory. Cocktails like the Chow-Lini crafted with house-made peach foam are festive, but choosing something off of the champagne cart as it makes its way through the dining room is not a bad way to celebrate something or nothing at all."

"Enter this Beijing restaurant at Caesars Palace through a modern and classic entrance in chic black and white. Find a Champagne arrival at the elevators, a first at one of the seven Mr Chow locations worldwide, that take guests up to the second floor with a view overlooking the Garden of the Gods. Diners first note the suspended centerpiece kinetic sculpture that moves and changes colors, another first for Mr Chow."

"PalazzoThe concept began in Hong Kong and the name honors a historic address in New York's Chinatown, but with a mix of style and substance, Mott 32 feels right at home in Las Vegas. The dining room, tucked away in the back of the Palazzo casino, is a bold, modern space with secluded corners and large, comfortable booths for added intimacy. The Peking Duck, wood-roasted in a custom brick and clay oven, is the specialty, but it's hard to overlook other elevated takes on Cantonese cuisine—most notably, the use of Iberico pork and black shaved truffles in the dim sum menu."

"Located at The Palazzo, this show-stopping Chinese restaurant from the Maximal Concepts restaurant group leaves a lasting impression with its Vegas-meets-Hong Kong decor (a neon duck and feather boa chandelier are just a few eye-catching accents). The real star however, is the applewood-smoked Peking duck, which takes 48 hours to prepare and is carved tableside. It’s no wonder that after less than a year in business, Mott 32 was awarded Strip restaurant of the year by local Las Vegas NPR-affiliated magazine Desert Companion."

"Chinese , Dim Sum"

"If you’re longing for the glamor of vintage Las Vegas — red tufted seating, waiters in tuxedos flambeing bananas foster tableside, a booth once frequented by Frank Sinatra — you’ll find it at The Golden Steer Steakhouse on Sahara Avenue, the oldest steakhouse in the city. Founded in 1958, this just off-Strip fine dining restaurant has a long tradition of serving wet-aged steak and classic Las Vegas accompaniments such as shrimp cocktail and oysters Rockefeller. For a special occasion, split the chateaubriand."
