Local gem. We wandered off the street, put our names down (party of 2) and came back after a 25-30 min wait. Worth it. We over ate, so my warning is order wisely. Bigger group will let you try more things. We ordered the in house sourdough with three different sides: chicken liver (winner), burrata (good, not mind blowing), and the beets (nice complement). Unfortunately we couldn't stop eating and this filled us up. We had the roast beef sandwich and garlic/lemon pasta mains. Pasta was ah-mazing. Would highly recommend. The sandwich was good, not a standout. We sat by the bar, which, for lunch, was a great vibe. Big windows and sunlight made it lovely. I'd sit there again vs a table. Our server/bartender was super nice - very comfortable and could adapt with whatever we wanted and how we were rolling through the meal. Would come back and recommend checking it out if in Vegas.

This was the final dinner stop on our recent Eagle Fang Golf Club trip to Las Vegas. And wow…what a dinner it was. There was about a dozen of us so we decided to go family style and order a bunch of appetizers and entrees. I enjoyed everything served this evening including the bread with spreads, cauliflower which was incredible, chop salad, meatballs, spaghetti and raviolis. Service was great, wine, cocktails and beers were awesome and everyone left happy and satisfied. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in Vegas. 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

We have heard a lot about Esther’s Kitchen and their food and their story; so, we decided to try it yesterday and I must say it was fantastic! I made a reservation through Open Table for 12:45 we got there and the hostess was kind and respectful; we waited a few minutes and got to our table. I must say it was full with clients. Once we got to the table our waiter was kind and explained us how they cook the food, which one was the bread signatures and the add one to it. And let me tell you that bread was a party in your mouth; you get to break it once it is on the table and then it is smooth and crunchy a must order for sure. The Esther’s sandwich a delight and the pasta with black garlic it is a flavor like none traditional pasta. We had Italian beer that is so smooth and a cocktail however the lime tea with honey to close our lunch made me feel like home.

There were 9 of us and we had a reservation. They did have a table ready for us prior to our arrival. Our server was nice and she gave us recommendations from the menu. During the lunch hours the restaurant does get pretty loud so it can be heard to hear people in your party. I had an Italian chopped salad and OMG it was amazing!!! The presentation of it was beautiful and it was full of favor. The servings are mainly family style. I also had a meatball sandwich with sweet potato chips. The sandwich was descent but the chips were excellent. I also had a slice of sausage pizza it had a bit of a kick to it but it was good. The bread that they bring for the table is a bit hard, so I could only eat some of the inside. The spreads they bring for the bread is good. I believe there were 5-6 spreads they brought us. So if the bread was a bit softer that would be great! There was a chicken pasta that we had that really didn’t have much flavor in it. Everything else we had was pretty good. I would visit this spot again and I would definitely get the Italian chopped salad!!!!

It was our first time visiting Esther’s Kitchen and we were excited because of the high rating reviews, but it was just okay, nothing special. The restaurant is nicely decorated inside, not so much as an outside curb appeal , it is decent size with a big bar section and the upstairs cocktail lounge. The ambiance is great. They have an open kitchen which was pretty cool. It was hard to get a reservation and when we did get one, we showed up and still waited an additional 30 minutes. The hostess didn’t know how to operate a system for seating and it created a mess. As foodies who make it a point to support local restaurants, we've learned to be patient and understanding. Well , after we got seated our waiter was not so attentive either and we have left abandoned most of the time. It took forever for the food to arrive. But the restaurant was very busy, so again we were understandable about it. We have ordered a couple of pizzas, pasta and their famous sourdough bread. We were not impressed with the food: the hyped up sourdough bread was too hard like a brick,you couldn’t even bite the crust. They do have the best butter I've ever had. But it was hard to enjoy it when the hard crust was nearly impossible to cut. We also had eggplant pizza and Diavola pizza. It was an okay pizza ,but nothing to say you have to have it. The crust was softer than the usual brick oven pizza. And the middle part was too soggy and not cooked enough . I am a big pizza fan and that’s my favorite meal and I have had a real Neapolitan style pizza in Rome and it was not undercooked like this one. The pasta tasted great and we really enjoyed it the most. It is homemade, prepared fresh in house. Overall: our dining experience was ok. The Esther’s Kitchen was just overhyped, they still need to work on their reservation system , better train the staff and the kitchen, they have a lack of communication skills. They do have a great potential and they are still a good Italian restaurant, but I highly recommend eating elsewhere , like Eataly at Park MGM , if you’re looking for an authentic Italian cuisine.
