This year, we don’t get to celebrate our holidays as we normally would. The COVID-19 pandemic has nixed raditional family gatherings and that annual office holiday party, but in Las Vegas, you can still have an amazing celebration.
Whether you’re catering for eight or daring a night out on the town, we want to make sure Thanksgiving 2020 is still a highlight of your year. We looked at some of Sin City's finest restaurants to see what they've got cooking, and it turns out there are tons of delicious options for dine-in, takeout and catering.
From classic steaks to a twist on traditional turkeys, your Thanksgiving celebration in Vegas is guaranteed to be stellar. Here are the 10 best bets for Thanksgiving dinner in Las Vegas.
