Great breakfast joint, just for the basics and convenience of being very close to my home. This place gets busy weekend mornings, but they know how to move people through. $10/person or so.

In the Mirage, my favorite weekend brunch buffet. Huge venue with every kind of food lining all the walls. Omelette/waffle station, seafood, benedict, bottomless mimosas :-) Not cheap but a real treat

This authentic-feeling Japanese ramen shop is a great noodles-only spot any time, but particularly on colder days. Only 30 or so seats, there's usually a wait around dinner time. Inexpensive.

Best veggie and vegan specialty place in town- there are several of them. Delicious food, prep can be slower than typical, so plan a bit of extra time.

My personal favorite Thai restaurant, this place is nicely decorated, friendly staff, and delicious food. I'd be remiss not to mention Lotus of Siam, which everyone loves, but I like this place.

Essentials
Great for healthy groceries and for a meal from the deli/food bar (cheaper on Wednesday!). A longish walk from my place, not bad though if the weather is nice. Not inexpensive.

Drinks & Nightlife
I've highlighted the Griffin, but this whole short street of bars is a great alternative to nightlife on the strip. Well designed, one-off bars and lounges with cheaper than strip-priced drinks.

The best of downtown, highlight of this property is the pool- cabanas, loungers, but most importantly, a shark tank IN THE POOL! With a SLIDE THROUGH IT! May need to talk nice to the doorman to enter.

The dam is a genuine wonder and has a great tour, and the bypass bridge, completed in 2009, is an absolutely beautiful structure in its own right. Both can be seen in a few hours.
