Esther’s Kitchen in downtown Las Vegas is nothing short of a culinary gem. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by a warm, inviting atmosphere that blends that downtown charm with modern elegance. The new location is absolutely stunning—high ceilings, beautiful wall accents, and sleek, loft style touches give the space a cozy yet upscale vibe. It’s the perfect setting for an unforgettable dining experience. The menu is a true celebration of Italian cuisine, and the chefs' spread is an absolute highlight. The selection of house-made spreads and the amazing sourdough, sets the stage for what’s to come. Each dish is thoughtfully prepared and elegantly plated, showcasing the finest local ingredients with a clear emphasis on authenticity and seasonal flavors. The flavors are bold but balanced, giving you the perfect introduction to the exceptional meal ahead. When it comes to the main courses, Esther’s Kitchen truly shines. The pastas are exceptional—handmade and cooked to perfection. The MARGHERITA PIZZA, for example, is served with a rich, savory sauce that perfectly clings to each slice of pizza. The FAZZOLETTI, another standout, is cooked with precision, its layers perfectly balanced while the meat remains juicy and flavorful. Whether you’re craving something hearty or a lighter fare, the offerings are designed to satisfy all tastes, with seasonal touches that elevate each dish. The wine list is equally impressive, offering a selection of reds, whites, and bubbles that perfectly complement the bold flavors of the menu. The service is warm and attentive, with staff who are knowledgeable about the dishes and wine pairings, making the entire experience well worth while. Thank you Jessy, who was our first interaction here. You set the stage for the rest of our night. And a huge thank you to Nelson for taking care of us for the rest of it.

Rebecca is personable and a funny waitress. She is amazing. She even remembered us from our 1st visit, which ironically enough we sat at the same table. The food is amazing and moderately price, of course would like them to be cheaper, but it’s not crazy overpriced. Will be coming back as a semi-regular customer especially for Italian food.

This is our go to spot and always a great meal! Lately we've been getting the antipasto salad which might be the best deal in all of Vegas. $20 for a "salad" that is more like a charcuterie and cheeseboard on top of a salad. This thing could easily serve four people. The Calabrese pizza is amazing! The perfect combination of spicy and sweet. I told my husband I will never order pizza from anywhere else in the area, if we are craving pizza we will get it from here for sure. We got one of the chicken specials and it was flavorful and delicious. I wish it was a permanent menu item. They always have really interesting and great specials here. They brought us free cannolis for our anniversary. I didn't think I liked cannolis, but I have been converted!
