Not just some of the best Korean food in Vegas, but some of the best I've had, ever. You'll find mostly Koreans eating here...always a good sign. It's not Korean BBQ, they specialize in soups and stews. Get the Bo Ssam and pork neck soup. One of my favorites.

Very good Chinese style BBQ pork and duck. It's tucked away in the corner of the plaza, very often with a line out the door. I believe it's cash only, pretty rude service (typical of authentic Chinese restaurants) but totally worth it.

I hesitate to put Pho Kim Long on here because the food can be average... sometimes it's good. But it's a scene, very popular with tourists, and open 24/7. Good place to go at 4-5 am when the club scene gets out and have a beer and some noodles watching all the drunks.
