Best Restaurants for Groups in Cannery Hotel & Casino

Kudos to our server Jeffrey for making this celebration memorable. He was insightful about the menu and offered recommendations to us as a group of vegetarians. They even have a separate vegan menu. The food was amazing - small plates, shareables, deserts. Everything was top notch. Rarely as a vegetarian does our family rave about every meal. At Beauty & Essex, we did. And we are coming back the next time we're are in Vegas!

The appetizers, crispy tuna and smoked oysters were excellent. The oysters were served with the smoke still under the serving cover. The sticky lamb chops were the best lamb chops we ever had. The king crab and truffle fried rice was special. The only disappointment was their signature crispy duck. The skin was great, but the inside was a little overcooked and dry.

Thanksgiving dinner was really good! The portions were big & the food was great! The dessert was outstanding! I forgot to get a picture of the desert before I ate on it & took it home. But it was a pastry show! We bought a Golden Monkey” tequila drink! It was sooo big, there was no way to finish it! We had to get togo containers for everything! 🦃🍁👍

We had a fantastic non-traditional Thanksgiving meal at Carmine’s, and we loved it! From the food, to the service, to the extra attention we received from Jessica, our server, the runners, and the manager, “T”, we absolutely loved it. We had the mixed salad (enough for 8, seriously), Eggplant Parmesan (our favorite thing!), a side of meatballs, and rotini with Giardiniera sauce. For dessert, we shared the Chocolate Bread Pudding with a side of vanilla ice cream. Oh…my…gosh. This was phenomenal! Jessica was attentive without being overbearing, our water was kept full (always appreciated), dishes were cleared quickly, the noise level was good, the holiday decorations were beautiful, and we even got to meet the GM. What a great experience!

We reserved our dining spot for 7 well in advanced and were seated fairly quickly. The view inside was amazing, and we appreciate the lazy Susan on the tables for food sharing. We had some small plates and ramen to share. Cucumbers and the rice cakes are a must-order. Ramen is okay, nothing mind blowing. I did enjoy my 7 spice slushie. Service was basic. I expected a better service for such a nice establishment. Server did not bother checking on us or offering to bring anything else. Otherwise it was a pretty good dining experience.
