Brunching in Las Vegas isn’t just a meal, it’s a religion. Locals are all about the belated breakfast, likely because many of the most popular spots offer major doses of both grease and booze (aka the perfect antidote to any hangover). Restaurants all over the Strip are constantly trying to one up each other to provide guests with the most unforgettable brunch of their lives—meaning you have a plethora of over-the-top options to choose from during your next LV vacay.
Of course, as is often the case in highly brunchable towns, there are a few unspoken rules that you’ve gotta follow, not least because they’ll help you snag the best table. First: It pays to book ahead. If you’re not that much of a planner, just be sure to get your name on the list early to minimize the wait. Second, just because most visitors stay in resorts on the Las Vegas Strip doesn’t mean you have to eat there, too. Rather than narrowing your brunch options to the four-ish miles between the “Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas” sign and the Stratosphere tower, check out Downtown Vegas, Chinatown, and even the suburbs for some epic spots. The 13 brunch recs here won’t disappoint.
