LAVO is one of the many restaurants offered within The Venetian resort. The thing they’re most famous for — aside from the massive 1-pound meatball on the menu — is their Party Brunch experience! It’s one of the most fun times you’ll ever have at brunch.

Offering indulgent menus, a large selection of champagne, live chef stations, bottomless cocktails, and resident DJs, brunch at LAVO is unlike anything on the Las Vegas Strip.

Saturdays and Sundays are where it’s at. On Saturdays from October to March, you can partake in the famed LAVO Party Brunch where you can even dance on top of tables after your meal. Every Sunday, you can indulge in a bottomless Italian brunch experience with unlimited options and live chef stations.

Both of these weekly events are perfect for large groups and celebrations — LAVO is practically a staple for bachelorette parties in Vegas!

The Tournament of Kings Dinner Show is a fantastic dinner-and-a-show experience that stands out as one of the most fun places to eat in Las Vegas — especially if you’re a fan of all things fantasy.

This isn’t your average dinner meal. It comes with jousting, sword fights, and medieval-themed performances that’ll captivate both kids and adults.

Inspired by the energetic street markets of Southeast Asia, Famous Foods Street Eats inside Resorts World features a curated collection of pan-Asian eateries by award-winning chefs from around the globe.

You’ll find everything from street food favorites to award-winning brands here. The top things to try include diverse dishes like Texas barbecue with a Chinese and Vietnamese twist, flavorful hand-pulled noodles, Hainanese chicken rice, and Michelin-Plate-winning claypot dishes from Singapore.

You can explore all the offerings at Famous Foods here, but I’ll warn you now… there’s a lot to choose from!

Since you are in Vegas and on the Strip (as opposed to the actual streets of Singapore or Thailand), the food here does cost more than you’d expect for a ‘night market’ type of place. Expect dishes to cost $15-20 on average.

Dick’s Last Resort

Dick’s Last Resort is a spot where the menu might not be winning any Michelin stars anytime soon, but the laughter and overall experience are off the charts! With servers who delight in trolling and roasting you, it’s a blast for the whole family. Don’t worry, though – they know when to dial it down for the little ones.

This spot is fun for all ages — the real treat here is the playful atmosphere and the hilarious interactions with the staff.

Grab a hat with a funny insult on it, brace yourself for some good-natured ribbing, and get ready for a memorable dining experience that’s more about the fun than the food!
