Best Restaurants for Groups in Paradise

Beauty & Essex is one of my Las Vegas favorites. The atmosphere is fun, and the music is just right as a precursor to a night out. The servers can be a little slow with cocktails, but overall service is great. Our water glasses were never empty and food was well-paced. As a group of 6, we ordered 10 different dishes and 2 sides. This is a family style / sharing type restaurant. We were hungry, but didn’t finish all the food. I would say a moderately hungry group could probably go with 6-7 dishes with 1-2 sides and be fine (assume 1/person + 1/4 of a side). The downside is most of the dishes that were the favorites, are those that only had one portion per person. In our party those were: chicken meatballs, grilled cheese dumplings, and the kale apple salad. Least favorites: French dip sliders, scallops, and the filet. Of the sides, we got French fries and broccolini- both great (get horseradish aioli with the fries if ranch is your usual go to). The drinks are good, but I didn’t see anything I found particularly creative and different from similar establishments. Beauty & Essex is great for groups due to the family style plates and atmosphere. It’s loud, so maybe not the place to have conversation with everyone at the table. However, if you need a place to eat before hitting the town Beauty & Essex has great food with an energizing ambiance.

Rosa Mexicano is a true gem in Las Vegas, offering an authentic taste of Mexico that exceeds expectations. From the moment we arrived, the vibrant atmosphere set the tone for a memorable dining experience. The pink chips and salsa were a delightful start, with the fresh, flavorful salsa perfectly complementing the warm, crispy tortilla chips. For our main course, we indulged in the Parrillada for two, which featured a mouthwatering selection of grilled meats, including steak, chicken, and chorizo, all bursting with flavor. The beautifully presented platter was a feast for both the eyes and the palate. A highlight of our visit was speaking with Chef Fernando Guerrero, whose passion for Mexican cuisine shone through as he shared his culinary journey. His dedication to using quality ingredients and traditional recipes is evident in every dish. Without a doubt, this was the best Mexican meal we've had in Vegas, and we can't wait to return. We highly recommend Rosa Mexicana to anyone seeking authentic flavors and a fantastic dining experience!

Alexxa’s is definitely a place we make sure to get to pretty often when we are in Vegas! Top notch food. Service is second to none and, of course, you can’t beat the view of the fountains right across the street. Thank you Cleo for another amazing experience and we will reach out again the next time we are in town!

We originally were a table of 9 which on arrival we changed to 11 with no issues. The waiter was brilliant he came over explained everything and told us to share sides as they were large. He answered all of our questions and advised which steak would be best he knew all the different cuts. The food arrived and everyone was pleased the sides were large as he had advised. The food was cooked to perfection my husband eats a lot of steak and he said it was one of the best he’d ever had. Everyone on the table enjoyed the meal and commented on it. The restaurant is a lovely setting and we were checked upon as a large group we were very well looked after quite often you can be forgotten. Even though we had been told it was expensive it was what we would have expected for a steak restaurant of that standard . My only negative comment would be we struggled to hear the waiter and also to converse in the group as the DJ was just in front of us and the volume was very loud otherwise a fantastic evening and would highly recommend

The Ramen was truly fantastic and lived up to their reputation. Every server was incredibly friendly and made us all feel very welcome. All three different ramens we got were top notch in their own way and I’m looking forward to going back.
