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.

    Best restaurant we’ve been to in Vegas hand down. The food was phenomenal - some of the best deserts I have had anywhere - and our server, Daphne, was fun, knowledgeable, had great recommendations, and made the experience even better. We will absolutely be back and have recommended it to all our friends and family

    Unique brunch menu. Food is outstanding, very noisy and while the server was good, she was often missing in action. Looked like she had too many tables that were spread out.

    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.
