What newcomer on the scene excited you this year?
Scott Roeben,
: There were a couple, thankfully. I was pleasantly surprised by Bugsy & Meyer’s Steakhouse at Flamingo, just hit it out of the park, and sad to see they may be struggling because of the lack of convention business. The batch of new restaurants at Circa created some buzz, including my new favorite Las Vegas restaurant, 8 East. Just incredible, and sort of saw it coming having been a fan of Le Thai.

What were your regular go-to destinations for takeout and delivery in 2020? What about dine-in service?
Diana Edelman, founder
Scott Roeben,
: On the takeout and delivery front, there are some tried-and-true favorites, including Archi’s Thai and Angara India Spice Grill in Summerlin. Dine-in favorites are Triple George Grill at Downtown Grand and Andiamo Steakhouse at The D. No list would be complete without Esther’s Kitchen downtown.
Melanie Lee, Eater Vegas: Red Rice, Jjanga, and Win Kee were the three spots I turned to most for delivery. I’ve mostly only eaten them as takeout so it felt normal to do so. Nacho Daddy and Shake Shack have been my dine-in/pick-up regulars this year; both locations felt very clean and safe, which was super important to me.
