  1. Mixed plate at 9th Island Grill
    #1

    9th Island Grill

    Las Vegas area (Henderson), NV · ★★★★★ 5/5

    A Henderson favorite for a Hawaiian mixed plate of BBQ chicken and chicken katsu with rice and mac salad. The pulled pork sandwich was a winner too, and every sauce comes on the side.

    Fuku Burger Chinatown

    Las Vegas, NV · ★★★★★ 5/5

    Great burgers and fries in Chinatown. The bacon-loaded BUTA and the TAMAGO with a runny egg are the ones to get.

    Great food and friendly, attentive service downtown. The fried chicken eggs Benedict and a pancake to share made it an easy one to recommend.
