According to the Michelin Guide, a world-renowned
restaurant rating system, only fine dining establishments earning three Michelin stars are “worth traveling for” —
technically.
Restaurants awarded two stars are worth a detour, and one star indicate an eatery is worth a stop along your journey. No matter how you slice it, a Michelin-starred restaurant is always a good choice, and in Las Vegas, the options are plentiful.
There’s something to satisfy every appetite, no matter what you’re craving. Here are 10 indulgent restaurants to check out on your next Las Vegas vacation.
