Seasonal Italian Restaurant. Focused on Handmade pasta, bread and pizza. We get all of our products as locally sourced as possible.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: James Trees

From the OpenTable editors: When James Beard-nominated chef James Trees opened Esther’s Kitchen in 2018, he helped put the Arts District on the city’s culinary map. Now in a stylish new space with an open kitchen and whimsical animal wallpaper, the refined Italian spot still turns out the same wood-fired sourdough pizzas and knockout pastas (get the rigatoni carbonara with snap peas) that made it an instant Vegas classic.

    Very friendly staff made us feel welcome. We went for brunch but they don’t serve brunch during the week. We therefore dined from the lunch menu. Would have preferred to have been seated with natural light but for some reason, they were seating most folks where the ceiling is lower, to the left of the welcome area. Ambiance here was bit cramped and music was loud. Food was excellent. Their Niçoise salad with fresh tuna was delicious. They make their own bread. Pizza dough equally scrumptious. It’s about a 20 minute ride from the strip and is located in the art district or original downtown area. Low rise buildings and cool ambiance. Worth the trip.

    Awesome experience! Restaurant was fully staffed, all we encountered 5*. Two couples shared plates of sourdough bread w/3 dips, fall squash salad, & 2 pasta dishes. All were excellent! Perfect amount of food for four. Many interesting drink options. Can’t wait to dine here again

    We had a going away luncheon. The food was amazing. The meat and cheese tray was a wonderful way to begin the meal. The fresh lemonade was a nice addition. The main entrees were very tasty and filling. Overall an excellent lunch.

    The food and drinks were really good. The restaurant was nice. I selected this as a place to take someone out to dinner for their birthday. The server wasn’t rude but was very dismissive and we felt super rush ed when looking at the menu. Server at the table next to us was very informative about the menu while our server just rushed us. Not a great experience.
