About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
Experience the flavors of Basque and Catalonian pintxos brought to life right here in Las Vegas.
We have a deep appreciation for Spanish cuisine from various regions, but the Basque country and Catalonia truly captured our hearts. These regions, steeped in history, art, and natural beauty, have been a wellspring of inspiration across creative disciplines. What draws us back time and again is the incredible food and the sense of liberation that comes with the dining experience.
At A Different Beast, we want to extend this experience to you, because when it comes to food, sharing is caring.
We encourage you to set aside the past and the future, and join us for a glass of sangria or two, sample a selection of tapas, and indulge in an array of pintxos brought to your table dim-sum style. VIVIR EL MOMENTO!

    One of my favorite restaurants, and perhaps I am slightly biased because last year I came back from a trip to Northern Spain and was desperate for pintxos. And not only is ADB the only place in Vegas that serves pintxos, it does them very well. I've brought plenty of friends here to eat, and everyone raves about it. We even did a company event here, and they still talk about the food. If you're looking for something different that you cannot find in all of Vegas (even on the Strip) - this is that place.

    Was not blown away by the food or experience. For the price you could eat on the strip somewhere nice, rather disappointing food lacked flavor and nothing stuck out. Service wasn’t bad just wasn’t anywhere close to a wow factor. Just a restaurant trying to make it I get it but those prices are not worth it. Wagyu meatballs biggest let down, just tomato sauce with ground beef it seemed. Octopus lacked any flavor and the egg with wild mushrooms was the only bright spot and the cheesecake.

    We love tasting, and this particular place has our lowest ranking by far. First, they don't serve cocktails, which I should have researched more. I just assumed they do because all the tasting restaurants we've been through always have. I understand there's a level of alcohol licensing, so I was okay with the wine. Unfortunately, the wine selections are limited and are not very good. We barely understood the waitress because she was speaking so low underneath her mask. Food tasting should be explained when they bring the next dish. That is a part of the presentation. We just relied on the menu as we went along. The Sagria was flat and had no fruit flavor, just plain. Disappointing experience and will not be back at this establishment.

    Table of 6. We all got the tasting menu with extra orders of foie pintxo. Service was impeccable, Miranda was a knowledgeable host and took great care of us making our meal a memorable experience. Don't miss out on the cheese cake.
