Best Lunch on the Las Vegas Strip

The Las Vegas Strip is known for its killer food options, which means that your afternoon noshing is sure to be delicious as long as you pick the right spot.


Sugar Factory at the Fashion Show Mall

For a whimsical, technicolor Las Vegas lunch spot look no further than Sugar Factory inside the Fashion Show Mall. Despite the name, the menu is way more than just their decadent desserts. One of our favorite savory dishes is their lineup of sliders with rainbow colored buns that give us some serious flashbacks to Spongebob’s Pretty Patties. But that’s not their only over-the-top burger option. They also have one of the glitziest burgers we’ve ever experienced called the 24K burger that is literally covered in edible gold with a side of gold-dusted fries and a 24K Rich Chocolate Milkshake that’ll set you back a cool $150 for the privilege. 

Besides the over-the-top dishes, every corner of this restaurant is photo worthy. From the bright pink floral walls to the adorable giant candy sculptures out front. Sugar Factory is the perfect place for people of all ages to indulge in the desire to have dessert first.

"If you are in town for a birthday party, consider planning it here. You can view the party menu on their website. Order the family-friendly sampler platter and the Pink Unicorn Hot Chocolate."


Eataly at Park MGM

This Las Vegas lunch spot offers a thorough taste of the many flavors of Italy. It’s perfect for diners wanting to try a bit of everything from the different stalls, for families with picky eaters, or even just for grabbing a gelato while you walk down the Strip on a hot summer day. The best part about Eataly is that you can take home their amazing ingredients to cook with later. Locals absolutely love grabbing some gourmet meats, cheeses, and desserts to bring back home to enjoy. But if you’re visiting and can’t throw a slab of meat into your carry-on, they have plenty of dry goods as well to help spice up your next culinary experiment.

"Great for groups because each person can eat somewhere different, but all in the same place. For a celebration, dine at Toscana Ristorante & Bar by Eataly for a fine dining experience."


Virgil’s Real BBQ at the LINQ Promenade

This spot on the LINQ Promenade is one of the best places for lunch in Las Vegas. If you’re doing it right, this meal is gonna require a stack of napkins and plenty of moist toilettes in the absolute best way. Grab a seat on their second floor balcony so you can people watch and get ready to dig into their savory menu full of smoked meats, towering sandwiches, and authentic Southern side dishes like cornbread, collard greens, and hickory pit baked beans. 

And you better save room for dessert, your meal isn’t complete without a slice of one of their droolworthy pies.

Best Lunch in Downtown Las Vegas

Glitter Gulch and the fabulous Fremont Street area is where Vegas was born, which means it’s a great place to experience the authentic side of the city away from the up-scale boutique vibes of the Strip. The food spots here are mostly locally-owned spots that offer big portions and even bigger flavor to keep you full and fueled for the day ahead.

Dirt Dog Off Fremont Street

There are multiple Dirt Dog locations across Las Vegas, but our favorite is the one off Fremont Street in Downtown Las Vegas. Each of their massive, 100% premium beef hot dogs are piled high with toppings so good you’ll be licking the paper once you’re done. They pair these gargantuan dogs with smothered fry baskets in flavors like dirty chili, elote, and carne asada. This is the perfect Las Vegas lunch spot for gut-busting portions that’ll leave you ready for the ultimate Fremont Street adventure.
