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.

    The entire experience was top-notch. The food, the ambience, and the service were all exceptional. We had wine, sourdough bread with three different spreads, pork chop entree with a side of Brussel sprouts and Zucca pasta.

    Great food and amazing service. Carolyn was the perfect server. Professional, personable, knowledgeable, and just fun. The truffle pasta, 10 grams of truffles was spectacular. Hope to go back someday

    Seems like the new location is having some challenges keeping up with food quality and quality of service our food took almost an hour to come out which is absolutely insane. I had heard only excellent things, but truthfully I was surprisingly disappointed. The pancakes were too dense and almost hockey puck like (likely over mixed.) The toast was burnt and also rock hard. However the eggs were excellent! Very much mixed results, but again it seems more like execution in adapting to a larger space versus lack of ability. It was really more 3.5 starts but I'll give them the benefit of the double and try again another time!

    This spot is truly underrated from the cuisine, service, and libation perspective. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed lunch and will make this a must whenever we are in Vegas.

    The pizza was bomb, so were the meatballs and the chopped salad, as well as the bread service! Omgosh and the butterscotch dessert was to die for. I want to try them out for brunch. Cool spot. Place was packed
