Cheaper eats on the strip?

Looking for recommendations for non high end places to eat on the strip. Thanks.

Las Vegas Strip is known for its high-end dining, but there are actually plenty of affordable and tasty options if you know where to look. Many casinos and hotels have casual eateries, fast-casual spots, and food courts that offer good meals without the luxury price tag. Here’s a detailed overview to help you find cheaper eats on the Strip.

For quick, casual meals:

  • Earl of Sandwich (Planet Hollywood) – Popular for hot sandwiches and salads, good for a quick bite.
  • Secret Pizza (The Cosmopolitan) – A hidden spot famous for New York-style pizza by the slice, casual and inexpensive.
  • In-N-Out Burger (The LINQ Promenade) – Classic fast food burger, very budget-friendly and always a hit.
  • White Castle (Casino area) – For sliders and quick meals on the go.
  • Taco Bell Cantina (Near Fashion Show Mall) – Slightly upgraded Taco Bell with unique menu items.

For casual sit-down dining with moderate prices:

  • Ellis Island Café & Brewery (Just off Strip) – Affordable classic American fare, steak, and seafood, with its own microbrewery.
  • Blizz Frozen Yogurt (Multiple Strip locations) – Light dessert and snack option, great for a quick treat.
  • Shake Shack (New York-New York & The Park) – Burgers, fries, and shakes, popular and moderately priced.
  • Eggslut (The Cosmopolitan) – Gourmet breakfast sandwiches without breaking the bank.
  • Grand Lux Café (Venetian) – Diverse menu with lots of options, mid-range pricing for families or groups.

Tips to save money:

  • Check hotel food courts – Many resorts have casual eateries with combo meals that are cheaper than full-service restaurants.
  • Lunch specials – Many higher-end restaurants have discounted lunch menus that are much more affordable than dinner.
  • Walk a few blocks – Some of the best cheap eats are just off the main Strip where locals go, such as Ellis Island or Chinatown (a few miles away).
  • Happy hour deals – Many bars and lounges offer food specials in the late afternoon.

With these options, you can enjoy the Strip without spending a fortune and still get tasty meals, ranging from casual pizza and burgers to slightly more elevated casual dining.
