Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Jean

Beauty & Essex is one of my Las Vegas favorites. The atmosphere is fun, and the music is just right as a precursor to a night out. The servers can be a little slow with cocktails, but overall service is great. Our water glasses were never empty and food was well-paced. As a group of 6, we ordered 10 different dishes and 2 sides. This is a family style / sharing type restaurant. We were hungry, but didn’t finish all the food. I would say a moderately hungry group could probably go with 6-7 dishes with 1-2 sides and be fine (assume 1/person + 1/4 of a side). The downside is most of the dishes that were the favorites, are those that only had one portion per person. In our party those were: chicken meatballs, grilled cheese dumplings, and the kale apple salad. Least favorites: French dip sliders, scallops, and the filet. Of the sides, we got French fries and broccolini- both great (get horseradish aioli with the fries if ranch is your usual go to). The drinks are good, but I didn’t see anything I found particularly creative and different from similar establishments. Beauty & Essex is great for groups due to the family style plates and atmosphere. It’s loud, so maybe not the place to have conversation with everyone at the table. However, if you need a place to eat before hitting the town Beauty & Essex has great food with an energizing ambiance.

Enjoyed the private room, Great ambiance and food. The entire family enjoyed the unique selection of food that was tasty and presented well The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly.

It was a great experience. Food came fast as we requested.

Not our first Christmas Eve dinner here since as a Vegas local we have spent several with Michael Mina. The staff always makes you feel special from your first greeting at the door to each and every server trying to make your night the evening that will be a part of your holiday tradition for many to come. The food is delicious with a presentation that is show stopping. No worries on leaving here hungry, the portions and selections will unfortunately not allow you to consume all that is offered.In the coming New Year a reservation here will guarantee you a pleasurable evening.Treat Yourself!

Solid breakfast and brunch spot for reasonable Vegas prices
