Burgr exceeded my expectations.
Craft Steak. It will blow your budget but an amazing hunk of beef.

Wazuzu and Red8 are great asian at Wynn. Lemongrass at Aria is pretty good as well - try Sunday DimSum.
Todd English PUB at Aria and Public House at Venetian for craft beer and pub food. I think Public House is a little better.
Border Grill (used to be Mandalay Bay. Now Ceasar's?) for excellent Mexican
Virtually every strip hotel has a good to very good (and expensive) steakhouse.

If your budget is big there is a hidden restaurant in the cosmo called E by Jose Andreas. It only seats about 10 and reservations are tough. But the food is fantastic and the do all the cool prep right in front of you, lots of molecular gastronomy.
Fluer by Hubert Keller in Mandalay. One of my favorites for tapas style meal.
Nove Italiano at the palms is some of the best modern Italian I have eaten.
There is also a cool icecream challenge at Rick moonans place in Mandalay. They bring out 16 icecream flavors in tasting cups. If you can guess a certain number of flavors 15? It's free. The flavors range from garlic to siracha to peach cobbler or vanilla bean. Great for conversation and interaction on a date night.
Places I'll never go back are Wolfgang pucks place at Mandalay bay, everything was underwhelming and some even bad, not worth the price.
The worst place I went to was Mario batalis place at the Venetian, it was very expensive and I cook better. The sorbet was made with rotten apples, I called them, out on it and they admitted the apples were too old so they made the sorbet.

Serrano at Aria was also good if you like Spanish tapas!

I've only been to Vegas once.
I ate the best hamburger in my life at a pub in the Monte Carlo Hotel. 25.00 Kobe Beef burger. I hit for 150 in 45 minutes at the 1/2 table. Fuck it, go big or go home. This was worth every penny.
wifey had a standard buffalo burger or something. Who cares, it wasn't Kobe beef
We used a groupon at Treasure Island and ate at Kuanaville. Meal was awesome.
We had Ginger/Teriyaki Flank steak and a Macadamia Nut encrusted Mahi Mahit
We also ate at the Paris Hotel Buffet. 45 bucks a person. Holy shit was it good (had a groupon for there as well).
M& M shop was cool.

Good restaurant in Vegas is like asking for a good restaurant in New York. The list will be endless - literally, as places open and close more frequently there than anywhere in the world.
Narrow the search with things you don't like, price range, and if you are mobility restricted (no rental car cuts awesome down greatly as many great places are a pricey cab ride away).
Good to know. Carnevino has been on my list for years (supposedly great aged steaks), but often get bumped for various reasons (I can only afford so many top dollar meals in each trip). If the food in genuinely bad, then I will get my aged steaks elsewhere.

I have to agree with Lib. When you're in Vegas for a short period, in-n-out burger is WTF to me.
Listen, the thing to know about Vegas is that just about everywhere is absolutely delicious, so don't take any suggestions as must do's since around every corner is another delicious spot.
Asian: Koi at Planet Hollywood
Steak: Stripsteak at Mandalay Bay, SW at Wynn (so sad it was under renovation when I was there in August).
Burger: Gordon Ramsay Burgr. The bun is so buttery warm soft and the English pub vibe/beer selection is nice.
Breakfast: Society Cafe at Encore.
Fine Dining: I love Picasso in the Bellagio. Steve Wynn has the largest Picasso collection in the world and he drapes every wall with several pieces. I was dressed like a ragged bum and they treated us like kings.

Denny's next to the Hershey store across from New York, New York. Provided probably the best value at the best price. Also had ok coffee for sobering-up the wife and I. (at 9:30am)
I know. It's Denny's. But value is money saved that equates to more money lost gambling.

If you're looking for a quick cheap bite, I love the Earl of Sandwich at Planet Hollywood. Also one downtown at the Palms.
I'm partial to Jose Andres' China Poblano in the Cosmopolitan, which I think is a great bargain for LV. And we've never had an unexciting meal in any of his Jaleos in DC.
Another place we always hit, because we're Francophiles, is Mon Ami Gabi, in Paris, with the view across the street of the Bellagio fountains.
A bit up the price scale, we also always eat at Bouchon (Thomas Keller) in the Venetian.
For the high end, we're also partial to Picasso, and to L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon in the MGM Grand.

If you like Italian try Battista's, it's right behind the Flamingo. Heads up, they're not open for lunch.

I second this! Great food and the best prices on the strip at a classic "Old Vegas" diner.
I have eaten at Carnevino and while I don't recall the steaks being exceptional, the pasta side was amazing. I'm not a great fan of steak or steakhouses - I just went because it was a group of guys who wanted MEAT - so don't take the criticism of the steak as gospel.
Also, I second the recommendation for China Poblano (Cosmo). We had the tasting menu and it was awesome. We sat outside the restaurant (still inside the casino) and watched the line of people waiting to get in the nightclub.
In-N-Out for sure.
Also Metro Pizza on West Flamingo. Get the Stockyard.

Never understood the in-n-out hype. Very meh imo - even animal style or whatevah. Several other burger chains are much better.
Exactly. Crappy well-done thin patties, much like Five Guys. Bleccch.
I like good thick medium-rare beef in my burgers.

I have to jump on this wagon. Everyone talks up in-n-out so much but the end result is so meh.
I like my burgers big, juicy, and messy.

I agree about the burgers, but 5 guys fries - Cajun style extra crispy - are awesome.
True. Until they put them in a bag with the burgers, and the steam ruins them in about thirty seconds.

CUT at Palazzo. Best steakhouse I've ever been to. Service was spot on. Won't go to Vegas and not have dinner there. Found this very cool, fresh, authentic, cheap, local joint on my last trip - way off strip, near Palace Station - Los Tacos. Excellent Mexican, and I love supporting local business when I'm away. Finally, Wynn's buffet is very very good. I don't usually do buffets, but it was comped and I had a line pass from my poker play, so wtf. Pleasantly surprised at the quality.

Both CUT and Los Tacos were on our To Eat list but haven't made it yet. Sounds like it lives up to the rep.
