Best Healthy Restaurants in Aliante Hotel & Casino

I had an absolute amazing time at Esther’s Kitchen. From the ambience to the decor and service, it’s all tip notch. I came in to surprise my now fiancée after proposing to her in her birthday and they congratulated us with a glass of wine of the house. Our server, who I believe is named Alex, was absolutely stellar and did an amazing job explaining the menu and some of there great dishes there. I knew what cocktail I wanted to try and it was a great balance of the bourbon tase but with a subtle sweetness. My fiancée didn’t know what she really wanted and Alex made her a cocktail that was spot on for her palate with a few questions! We ordered the Basil, Burrata, and Anchovy butter to go with the bread and they all were great, highly recommended! I ordered the dry age steak and my fiancée ordered the Risotto and both were wonderful,. The steak had a great crust on the steak with a good depth of flavor. The risotto was super rich and flavorful. I recommend adding the Parmesan on top to make it that much better. I can’t wait to come back in the future to try more of the menu! One of, if not, the best dining experience off strip in Vegas that isn’t crazy on your pockets! Make sure you ask for Alex, she is amazing server and made our special day that much better!

HAD THE CRAB LEGS. ORDERED THEM WITH GARLIC BUTTER. THEY WERE VERY GOOD. THE PRICE WAS HIGH, BUT BEING CHRISTMAS, IT WAS WORTH IT. MY HUSBAND HAD THE GRASS FED FILET MIGNON STEAK. IT WAS ALSO VERY GOOD. WE ORDERED 1 BAKED POTATOE, WHICH WAS SO BIG, GLAD WE SHARED IT. ALSO, SHARED THE CHOPPED STEAK SALAD. IT WAS ALSO VERY GOOD. I WISH THE LOBSTER WAS WILD AND THE SHRIMP. WE WON'T BUY ANY FARM RAISED FISH. THAT IS THE ONLY NEGATIVE. THEY NEED TO BUY WILD FISH, SINCE TOO MUCH JUNK IS IN FARM RAISED FISH

Had a very nice dinner. 6:15 pm reservation. Arrived about 10 minutes early and my party of three was seated right away. We had beef carpaccio as our appetizer, a wedge salad, and for our main courses we had short ribs and two filet mignons with grilled asparagus and sautéed mushrooms as our sides. Everything was cooked to perfection and was tasty. The wait staff was attentive and friendly and the prices were reasonable for a local steakhouse.

Make sure to reserve beforehand. We came the week of Christmas and made a reservation. We overheard the lady at the front desk say that the wait would be an hour at the time (7pm). There are three sections- front, with a couple tables and the bar, then the wide middle, with a view of the kitchen, and then the back, with a view of the fresh fish. Portions are pretty small but every dish was wonderful. Focaccia is off the menu- we saw other tables order it and we wanted to try it. Focaccia is super hot and fresh and served with whipped ricotta, definitely one of my favorite of the night. Their pesto and ricotta gnocchi- it comes in a ceramic dish so piping hot- and was extremely fresh and good. Their caramel tiramisu was a bit too sweet due to the caramel, but otherwise OK. Fish stew is served in a shallow bowl so it gets cold very quick. Ambiance was really nice, our server seemed a little rushed that day maybe due to a lot of tables but that was alright.

Grand Cafe is always a good place for a reasonably priced meal with good service and quality food for the price.
