• Thai • Delano Las Vegas
Booked 148 times today
Before the James Beard Award and the Gourmet Magazine review, Lotus of Siam was a small little hole in the wall located in Commercial Center in Las Vegas. November 1999 was the month Chef Saipin and her husband Bill took over Lotus of Siam. Since then, Thai food became an adventure for those willing to step out of their comfort zones for Asian Cuisine. Chef Saipin’s distinct cooking has been passed down from generation to generation, from both her grandmothers and her husband’s grandmothers. Her northern style cooking has opened America into the “Northern” world of Thailand, away from the Bangkok style of sweet and tang. The northern menu consists of hearty herbs and spices, along with Thai style stews and coconut-less curries. Through her set menus, our guests can dine and enjoy recipes from over 100 years in the Chutima family.

Bramàre Inspired Italian merges the innovative cuisine of Chef Joe Valdez III along with the whimsical beverage program stylings of Constantin Alexander. With a first class and vibey environment, Bramàre will transport you to another unique world of culinary delight. Try the Iberico Pork Secreto, or the Funghi Fritti which is also gluten free. If you're in the mood for something more Vegas style, the 24oz. Flannery Beef Ribsteak is just right. The cocktails are best in class. We can do all of the classics, or anything off the cuff. We have all the bells and whistles. The environment is dark and loungey with present but not overbearing music specially curated to the vibe. Always the right level, the music will not get in the way of your conversations. The kitchen is open from 5pm to 1am, Tuesday through Saturday. The bar is usually open later. Full menu until 12am, then a satisfying late night menu until 1am.

    Everything was great EXCEPT for the Vol Au Vants (puff pastry with lobster and caviar). The puff pastry tasted old. The Delmonico steak was amazing, cooked to perfection with a terrific crust and perfect medium rare interior. The garlic potatoes were also great and probably the best tres leches cake(actually quatro leches, they sneak some goat milk in theirs) I've had at a restaurant. Mike was our server and was terrific and accommodating to every request in a super busy environment. He definitely deserves recognition being able to handle everything as efficiently as he did with a smile on his face the whole time.

    The atmosphere, food, drinks, and service were great! Given they were very busy, we were never rushed and felt like we could relax and be taken care of. The food was amazing including the ribeye and himachi. The house made rocky road ice cream made me like ice cream again.

    A hidden little gem tucked away close to Harry Reid airport and a few miles from the Vegas strip. The food was really good - as an Indian, I’d say it was pretty close to home. The service was wonderful. Chris and the team were joyful and genuinely warm in serving everyone. The online search shows their location as on the strip which it isn’t but it’s worth the drive. Beautiful Bollywood movies themed decor.
