Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab
go early to avoid a wait, weekends are busy. Ryan's the best server, they're inconsistent service-wise… the food is always amazing! HIGHLY REC avocado toast!
Salt & Ivy
if you're staying or stopping by the aria, this is 24 HOUR snack + food. everything is really delicious and there's lots of snacks/goodies for purchase.
Aria Patisserie - French Bakery - ARIA Resort & Casino
2 BIG TIPS with this cheesecake factory dupe spot:
1- the 24/7 location at the Venetian is SUPER convenient and always good. The wait is never as long as they say, and they'll text you!
2- the Palazzo location is hidden, and it tends to be on the slower side + almost always less of, if no wait! So if you're at the 24/7 location and it's crazy packed - just go for a 5 minute walk down the mall to the hidden one.

Five Star Suites in Vegas - ARIA Sky Suites - ARIA Resort & Casino
This is legit no-stress fun time! it's like going to a Dave and Busters, but it has a 90's feel despite lots of new games. There's also a bunch of options for prizes, points don't expire, and there's a Dairy Queen in it!
Fun Dungeon
this medspa offers same day appointments for IV hydration, fillers and more. I've really liked using them!
Kalologie Medspa | ARIA Resort | IV Therapy & More
Wouldn’t stay there / but it’s a top day spot for me with a big casino and NY feel inside. There’s a 2 story candy store (that won’t be as busy as the Mm store across the street!)
New York-New York Hotel & Casino
take the luxury smell of the Aria back home with you (along with any of the fancy accessories on your bed, bath and spa towels, and more.)
