Anyone have a restaurant recommendation for a group of 3 guys? I'd prefer to not eat at a steak restaurant, but still want something appropriate a group of guys.

Any ideas? Not terribly worried about price.

Lotus of Siam was what I was gonna say.

For old Vegas-style cheap (but great) eats check out Ellis Island Casino. They have a steak special that is awesome, a BBQ special that is awesome, and their breakfast specials are awesome.

I also recommend some scorpions and grub at Peppermill's.

And if you're a sushi fan, check out Kabuto (although you'll need to reserve FAR in advance).

Flay and Ramsey have burger specific restaurants there. Wanted to at least check them out, but the group I was with chose Twin Peaks

Public House @ the Venetian.

Mucho craft beers; outstanding small plates.

Look for anything Guy Fieri related. He's been to a lot of restaurants, so he knows good food. Order the Loaded Mozzarella Potato Skin Sticks.

For a casual bite go to Secret Pizza at the Cosmo. Best pizza in town, there's no sign, they don't advertise it, you just have to walk down a hallway across from STK.

For giant portions and awesome food check out Hash House a Go Go at the Rio, Quad, or Plaza downtown.

Breakfast at Ellis Island is great and has been mentioned, higher end places I've enjoyed are Gordon Ramsey Steak and Lakeside at Wynn. Joe's Prime at Caesar's is old school, popular with the locals and apparently has really good food but I haven't made it there yet.

For Italian if you want to go old school Vegas with quality check out Battista's hole in the wall behind the Cromwell or Piero's on Convention Center.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, there are a thousand great restaurants around here. If you want a great burger there are a few places that have made it on food network as different top burgers in the country. Sammy's LA Pastrami is one and you can look up others.

Oh and if you're near the strip clubs there's Rollin Smoke BBQ, everything there is great and you can do all you can eat, anything on the menu for $25. It's a hidden gem.

Public house is the correct answer

Boss told me to pick a place for dinner for 6 of us guys last year and after reading reviews I picked this. Nobody had heard of it and gave me shite but after staying there for 3 hours, leaving fat and happy I was a hero

Also, the hot new restaurant is Giada's at the Cromwell and it isn't impossible to get a reservation. It's pricey but not absurd like a Joel Robuchon restaurant and you'll almost be guaranteed to see celebrities on the weekend. At that same level is 9 steakhouse at the Palms. Pretty much regarded as the place to go if you're a celeb and want to be seen.

Michael's. I forget what casino it is in but it is at the end of the strip. Unbelievable! Quite expensive even for the OT ballers on here
