Steakhouse lovers are in for a treat at the Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas, where chef Michael Mina will open his sixth local restaurant in September. Enter Bourbon Steak, Mina’s love letter to all things meat, offering carnivores a selection of premium beef cuts and fresh seafood. Bespoke trolley carts toting shellfish, caviar, chocolate fondue and curated cocktails will roam throughout the modern supper club, designed by Nunzio Marc DeSantis Architects. Those tastes will be paired with expertly crafted cocktails from Bourbon Steak’s deft mixology program. “I am thrilled to bring Bourbon Steak home to Las Vegas, and specifically to the Four Seasons,” shares Mina. “This city exudes such a unique energy to me. All of the elements we have added to this concept reflect the essence of Vegas, creating the ultimate dinner and show.”
In early 2025, Michelin- and James Beard Award-winning chef Fabio Trabocchi will debut Fiola Mare at Wynn Las Vegas. Replacing the five-star resort’s Lakeside restaurant—which permanently closed in mid-July—the seafood concept will make a splash with fresh catches from the Mediterranean and East and West coasts. The Las Vegas location will be reminiscent of its sister restaurant of the same name in Washington, D.C., where decadent seafood towers, raw bar selections, tableside displays and grilled entrees will be served adjacent to Wynn’s Lake of Dreams.

After a two-year hiatus, Tamba has reopened at Town Square Las Vegas. Co-owner Sunny Dhillon is continuing his father’s legacy by tapping chef Anand Singh to reinvent the Indian and Pan-Asian flavors the restaurant is known for. Three distinct dining rooms—highlighted by a 20-seat private alcove—invite gourmands to indulge in Indian ceviche, wagyu kabobs, sous vide murgh makhani and more. A roving cocktail cart will offer luxurious whiskeys like Louis XIII cognac and rare Macallan and Johnny Walker casks. “This is Tamba 2.0—the legacy continues,” says Dhillon. “In a city known for its extravagance, Tamba stands apart, offering a culinary journey where the focus is solely on you and the essence of exquisite cuisine.”
