Las Vegas Mixtape v10: U2 Sphere Takeover, Swap Meet Thrills, and Neon Feast Smarts

Track #5: Lucky Penny @Red Rock Casino Resort Spa

The Lucky Penny at Red Rock Casino is arguably the best example of a 24/7 Vegas hotel restaurant I’ve encountered—and it’s the one I frequent the most. 

This feel-good place serves standouts like lemon-blueberry ricotta pancakes, a simple but effective Chinese chicken salad, and marvelous multi-layered chilaquiles at affordable prices in a spacious, attractive dining room with framed artwork and a soaring ceiling. 

No wonder it’s a favorite with locals.

And then there’s the eatery’s super-accommodating waitstaff, who treat you like family, and the hotel’s complimentary valet parking. These things matter. 

Ask for one of their big, comfy booths and settle in with a craft cocktail like the Creamsicle Mimosa. Order the crispy fish tacos or chicken parmesan and finish it with a dessert from their colorful bakery case, which greets you upon arrival.

For those who don’t want to go fully down the sweet rabbit hole, there’s a generous fresh fruit plate. Request it with a dollop of whipped cream to make it a real indulgence.
