One of the best things to do in Las Vegas for couples is dining out. Sin City has some of the most mouth-watering restaurants in the USA! Many dining places here are owned by celebrity chefs, such as Gordon Ramsay, Bobby Flay, and Guy Fieri. You can have a fantastic culinary experience on and off the Strip. Here are some of our faves:
Dinner on the Strip
The most iconic restaurant on the Strip is the Eiffel Tower Restaurant, famous for its panoramic views of the Las Vegas skyline and the Bellagio Strip. They offer an extensive French menu with an exciting wine list and a scrumptious 3-course dinner worth over USD200 to celebrate the night.
Other romantic restaurants on the Las Vegas Strip include:

- Raku (along Spring Mountain Road) - authentic Japanese charcoal grill, starting from USD5 to USD18 per serving!
