Since we spent three days on the Strip, we ate a lot on the Strip! And it was good! After leaving the Strip, we had some good eats Downtown as well! Here's what we ate:
Proper Eats Food Hall
Located at Aria Resort and Casino, Proper Eats Food Hall replaced the property's buffet. It's a great concept with eight eateries to choose from. What made it great for me was it's ordering process. You can order from all eateries your phone by scanning a QR code or via a kiosk (but why would you do that?) and pay for all your orders at one time. When your orders are ready, you'll get text messages from each eatery. Brilliant! No more waiting in line!
Smash burger and fries from Lola's Burgers. Excellent!
Korean fried chicken sandwich from Seoul Bird. Also excellent!
We headed back to Proper Eats on another day to eat hand rolls and sushi at Temaki Bar. I ordered a three hand roll set for $26 that consisted of a salmon, a yellowtail and a spicy tuna hand roll. They serve you each roll one at a time. Once you finish the first, they'll make the next. I ended it with salmon sushi.
Eataly Las VegasLocated at The Park MGM, Eataly is an upscale Italian food hall that offers more than a dozen eateries and a marketplace to shop for Italian foods. It was so hard to choose what to eat! The food was good (especially the dessert), bit a bit pricey for the amount of food you get.
Sandwich from La Rosticceria.
Cacio e pepe from La Pasta Fresca.
Various desserts from La Pasticceria.
Crema caffe con cioccolato from Lavazza.
Gelato al cioccolato e caffe from I Dolci Italiani.
Mon Ami Gabi
This place gets a lot of love. Situated at Paris Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, you can get a table out on the balcony/lanai, fronting Las Vegas Boulevard with a direct view of the Bellagio Fountains and tons of people watching. By the way, "mon ami Gabi" means "my friend Gabi" in French (I googled) and we forgot to order a cappuccino. I guess that means we'll need to go back!
Corned beef hash.
Crepe.
This view!
8 East8 East bills itself as creative Pan-Asian Cuisine. Located on Fremont Street in Circa Resort & Casino, it offers good food in a hip atmosphere.
Gyoza.
Pork belly.
Fried rice.
This is the first time I've eaten chicken skin as a stand-alone dish. Surprisingly, I didn't care for it!
Huey Magoo's Chicken Tenders
Fremont Hotel & Casino is one of the many hotels that shuttered their buffets and replaced it with a food hall concept. The Fremont Food Hall includes six eateries, and during this trip, we tried Huey Magoo's Chicken Tenders.
This was a nice salad. We actually should have gotten the chicken unbreaded since we also ordered tenders with fries.
This is similar to Raising Cain's and all the other places that specialize in chicken tenders.
Dirt Dog
There's a location at the Grand Bazaar Shops at the Horseshoe, but we ate at the one on Fremont Street. I ate here on a previous trip, and I had to go back on this trip.

Garlic fries. We didn't order it this trip, but on our last trip, I also had the Dirty Esquite, which is basically Mexican corn. That was also really good!
This is just all the new places we ate. Not posted are meals at Triple 7 Brewery, Market Street Cafe, Evel Pie and Popup Pizza.
I hope you enjoyed this mouth-watering post! Check out my other posts from this trip!
