Ryan – Owner
Triple George Grill downtown. They have a fun speakeasy atmosphere with reasonably priced steaks.
Address: 201 N. 3rd Street, Las Vegas, NV 89101
Liz – Office Manager
Pizza Rock in DTLV. I just love a simple pepperoni pizza and their classic pepperoni pizza is the best! They also have all different styles of pizza, like Italian, Chicago and New York. Love the calamari there too. On the strip, Herringbone at the Aria Hotel and Casino is amazing as well. They grill their branzino to perfection and they have the most outstanding customer service!

VegeNation, I am a vegetarian and love going here when we go Downtown for the night. The food is amazing, and the drinks are fun and different.

I am a bargain hunter and a pizza lover so my vote goes to Pin-Up Pizza at Planet Hollywood. For $9.50 you can get a huge slice of pizza, a soda, and a garlic knot. For $11.50 you can sub the soda for a beer. Honorable mention for dessert is Milk Bar in the Cosmopolitan. You can grab a unique ice cream treat and then go watch the fountains at Bellagio.
Edgar – Assistant Guide
Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. because it reminds me of Forrest Gump and I love shrimp.
Address: 3717 S. Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109
