Wynn Las Vegas

Delmonico Steakhouse
The Venetian · Emeril Lagasse

CUT by Wolfgang Puck

Waldorf Astoria · Michelin Star
The only Las Vegas restaurant from 3-star Paris chef Pierre Gagnaire. Creative French cuisine on the 23rd floor of the Waldorf Astoria with panoramic Strip views. An intimate, refined experience away from the casino floor energy.
