Seasonal Italian Restaurant. Focused on Handmade pasta, bread and pizza. We get all of our products as locally sourced as possible.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: James Trees

From the OpenTable editors: When James Beard-nominated chef James Trees opened Esther’s Kitchen in 2018, he helped put the Arts District on the city’s culinary map. Now in a stylish new space with an open kitchen and whimsical animal wallpaper, the refined Italian spot still turns out the same wood-fired sourdough pizzas and knockout pastas (get the rigatoni carbonara with snap peas) that made it an instant Vegas classic.

Service was mediocre at best. Love this place, food is great but server hospitality is nonexistent.

Fantastic food with creativity and freshness while holding true to the cuisine. The mussels were cooked in some sort of oil and garlic while still in the shell and I’ve never had better.

On a friend suggestion, we reserved a spot for brunch. Our meal was spectacular. The quality and flavor of the food was the best meal we’ve had in vacation! Definitely recommend!

Although I booked reservations 2 weeks in advance, the hostess proposed a table located right next to front door and waiting area. We refused that table and had to wait. Expected more consideration. (No one waiting for a table accepted that table.) Food was good but seemed rushed between courses. One person's entre was served 5 minutes before all other dinners were brought out. Very noisy atmosphere, could barely hear each other talk. The "old Esther's Kitchen" location was top notch. Not this newer one.
