Experience World-Class Dining 

Labor Day weekend is the perfect excuse to eat your way through Las Vegas, from Michelin-recognized neighborhood favorites and chef-driven restaurants to lively food halls, happy-hour bites and late-night cocktails. Come hungry—your holiday itinerary deserves more than a few unforgettable meals.

Start your Labor Day weekend with brunch at Esther’s Kitchen in the Las Vegas Arts District. The seasonal Italian neighborhood restaurant recently earned a Bib Gourmand distinction in the 2026 Michelin Guide, recognizing its quality cooking and value. Chef James Trees’ brunch menu brings a distinctively Italian touch to weekend favorites. Go for the crab and spinach Benedict with nduja, garlic confit and Old Bay hollandaise; truffle polenta topped with sunny-side-up eggs and roasted mushrooms; or blueberry sourdough pancakes finished with blueberry syrup and lemon-thyme cream. Brunch is served Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.—a great excuse to explore the Arts District before heading back to the Strip.

For a quick, flavor-packed lunch between pool time and Strip adventures, head to Proper Eats Food Hall at ARIA Resort & Casino. The food hall brings together a broad lineup of chef-driven concepts and craveable comfort food, making it an easy choice when everyone in your group wants something different. Over Labor Day weekend, make a beeline for Lola’s Burgers, where a $29 special includes a double-patty smashed burger with American cheese, grilled onions, pickles and Russian dressing, paired with parmesan-truffle fries and a draft beer. The special is available Friday, Sept. 4 through Monday, Sept. 7.

For game-day food and a lively sports-viewing atmosphere, head to The Front Yard at Ellis Island. Order the house-smoked wings, street tacos with your choice of smoked brisket, smoked pork, chicken tinga or grilled shrimp, or the Front Yard Burger piled with thick-cut bacon, provolone, caramelized onion and chipotle aioli. With more than 20 TVs and an 18-foot screen, it is a great place to catch the game during Labor Day weekend

Slip into Beauty & Essex at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas for Social Hour, offered Sunday through Thursday from 5 to 7 p.m. in the bar. Select bites, cocktails and wines are priced at $10, including jumbo shrimp cocktail, grilled-cheese-and-tomato-soup dumplings, cauliflower tacos, empanadas and basil gimlets. 

Make dinner an occasion at ai Pazzi, Fabio Viviani’s elevated Italian restaurant at The Resort at Summerlin. With an open kitchen, handmade pastas and a warm, refined setting, it is made for a leisurely night out. Share the tableside Caprese, then dive into the Zuppa di Pesce—a seafood-rich combination of clams, mussels, shrimp, calamari and rockfish in lobster-tomato broth.

Before heading to the nightclub, find your way to Here Kitty Kitty Vice Den at Resorts World Las Vegas. Behind an unassuming entrance, the hidden cocktail lounge serves up an intimate, upscale setting for crafted drinks and a little mystery before the night ramps up. When you are ready to trade the lounge for the dance floor, Zouk Nightclub is just steps away.
