Even though it's a chain - I very much liked Wahlburgers - the fiesta burger is YUMMY. 

Ohhhhhhhhhh that's on my list for this year! Glad to hear it is good!

It is good, I've been 3 times.  First time was over the top good.  Next time - terrible service and I contacted them after I got home, which I rarely do but the service was that terrible.  Next trip I met personally with the assistant manager who assured me they take comments very seriously.  So I gave it another try and the burger was amazing and the service was great and I would recommend them again.  I'll go again next time I am there.  The fiesta burger is the BEST!

For a very nice expensive steak dinner....we have found SW in the Wynn to be the most conststent. We have always had a great meal and great service for the price. We have been to Prime and Smith/Wolesky's and they are good. However, those three are all priced about the same and SW is the better of the three. We also have been to Craft (Tom's from Top Chef) restaurant. It was very disappointing. I had a great lobster dish there, but my husband had a horrible steak. And it was expensive. It was so bad we actually wrote him. There is also a great Italian restaurant in the Galleria for lunch or an informal dinner.

I was going to recommend this as well. Fantastic burgers and not that overpriced for Vegas!

madredepeanut - 2017-11-22 10:49 AM Texas de Brazil, hands down! If you have never been to a churrascaria (Brazilian steakhouse) before, I highly suggest going! They usually offer coupons on their website, like buy one meal get $20 off the second (which is about half off), if you sign up for their newsletter. They usually have about 5-7 different kinds of meat, a huge salad bar, and a great wine selection. If you go, you better go hungry! And don't fill up too much on the salad bar while waiting for the meat to come around to your table. It's not on the strip, but not too far off the beaten path.

My sister in law has been to this place and insists on taking me there while in Vegas for the finals. I am looking forward to it. 

Oh my gosh, if you like meat- you will love it

Make sure you wear stretchy clothes, because you will need them afterwards!

Since all I eat is meat and salad this is a must for me!!

The salad bar has all kinds of salad- green, pasta, etc. Plus they have veggies, the amazing Brazilian cheese bread puffs... I could go on and on

Another vote here for Texas de Brazil.
When I read the title of your post, the first thing that came to my mind was that there were no great places to eat there. I found everywhere else mediocre, at best.
That's likely due to the area I'm from, though. The bar is set pretty high for restaurants here, so i expect a lot. We couldn't find a place with decent seafood.
Now, the shows, casinos and entertainment were all impressive. I just wish they could combine our food with Vegas' entertainment. Texas de Brazil was the only restaurant I was impressed with on our trip.

There is a burger place over by the Stratosphere that we ate last year that was wonderful. I can't remember what it was called. It had pretty cheap beer, too. $6 (I think) pitchers if a game was on.  

ETA: here's the place

YES YES YES, SW is THE BEST! Great dinner, fantastic wine list, and you get a show with dinner!
Other favorites include:
Javiers at Aria for Mexican food
Serrano and Jaleo run a close race for best tapas; Lago is 3rd for me
Joes Stone Crab in Forum Shops
Stack at Mirage
Trevi is great Italian food in Forum Shops with good atmosphere
Lotus of Siam is the best Thai food, but its closed right now

There are so many GREAT places to eat in Vegas, I would recommend something that IS NOT a chain!

I haven't seen Battista's Hole in the Wall mentioned yet. FABULOUS Italian food with great wine selection. Reasonably priced with a super unique atmosphere. Not on the strip, but within walking distance- and totally worth it! While you're here, check out all of the photos of celebs who have eaten there since they opened. Super cool!

 I say Samba in the Mirage for Brazilian steakhouse over Tejas de Brazil and Foco De Chao.  It's cheaper and I like the food a little better.  The Mexican food place in New York New York is great.  I also LOVE Cheesecake Factory inside the Forum Shops at Caesar's.  We also like Coronado Cafe at South Point.  For quick food, In-N-Out Burger is great.
