Skip the Buffet in Vegas｜Julian｜Tim Ho Wan｜Bouchon 🍽️

Last time I was in Vegas, the buffets felt overpriced and underwhelming 😒. This time, I decided to focus my budget on actual restaurants—and wow, what a delicious choice!! 🤤 📍 Julian Serrano Las Vegas A cozy Spanish tapas spot on the first floor of Aria. Small but packed with flavor! 💰 ~$90 per person (without drinks). 🥓 Stuffed Dates – $23 Bacon-wrapped dates served over smooth potato puree. Sweet, smoky, and savory—perfect combo! 🤎 🐙 Pulpo a la Gallega – $30 Grilled Spanish octopus with a distinct charred aroma. Tender and flavorful! 🐙🔥 🥩 Bistec a la Parrilla (8oz) – $45 Worth the 40-minute wait! Juicy, tender steak served with roasted red peppers—so satisfying! 😋 📍 Tim Ho Wan Affordable Cantonese dim sum on the first floor of Palms Casino. 💰 ~$35 per person, even when stuffed! 🦐 Har Gow (Shrimp Dumplings) – Delicate, fresh, and perfectly steamed. 🍜 Stir-Fried Noodles – Tasted super authentic (haven’t been to Hong Kong, but this felt like the real deal!). 🇭🇰 📍 Bouchon French bistro on the 10th floor of The Venetian. 💰 ~$80 per person (without wine). Feels like hearty homemade French food—not overly fancy, but warm and comforting. And the service was absolutely outstanding! 👏🫶 🦆 Confit de Canard – $26 Tender duck leg, crispy skin—like a more refined version of roast duck. So flavorful! ❤️ 🐌 Escargots – Not my favorite. The pastry made it too oily, and the snails tasted… canned. 🫢 Verdict: Vegas truly is a food paradise—came back home a few pounds heavier, but no regrets! 🥹🍴 #LasVegasFoodReview #VegasEats #VegasDining #FoodRecommendations #FrenchFoodInVegas
