This is a space for lovers of multiple recreations—a sanctuary to help your hipster side blossom or bring out your laid-back personality. It welcomes sports bettors, gratifies beer drinkers and gives food lovers that rare “fifth taste.” Umami Burger, Beer Garden & Sports Book at SLS Las Vegas certainly has its guests covered.

“It’s nice to be able to come in and bet, have a great culinary experience and enjoy being outside in the beer garden,” says Matt Erickson, senior vice president of restaurants for SLS Las Vegas. “We thought the three really played well together, in that as a guest I can bet on my favorite team, I can bet on the games, I can enjoy the games outside on Las Vegas Boulevard in the beautiful beer-garden setting, or I can stay inside, which is equally beautiful. And then, obviously, Umami Burger gives us an advantage, just in the quality of our culinary product.”

Erickson is right on the money with the beer garden setting. Only a handful of venues claim such close proximity to that famous stretch of street, and Umami now joins that elite club. Outdoors, painted with palm trees, greenery and blue skies, the design is woodsy with industrial influences and a dose of L.A. chic. Picnic tables with antler chandeliers hanging overhead provide the seating, or you can sit and chat up the bartender at the elongated bar with a beautiful lacquered-wood bar top.

You can choose from 35 craft beers. Umami keeps about 10 beers on draft, some switching out seasonally. During Umami’s Oktoberfest, through Oct. 31, guests can order $5 pints and $15 pitchers of Samuel Adams Octoberfest beer in the beer garden. Tuesdays and Wednesdays it’s buy-one, get-one pints and pitchers and $10 beer and brats. Additional menu selections include bottles and canned beers, a reserve list and specialty and “frozen” beers.

“We wanted to ensure that we were a great option for both the serious beer connoisseur, as well as just your everyday, average beer drinker,” Erickson says. Want to try something different? Erickson suggests Estrella Damm, a Spanish beer, served as champagne would be. It comes from chef José Andrés’ Beverly Hills restaurant menu. (His Vegas restaurant, Bazaar Meat, neighbors Umami.) “It’s great quality, with a cool presentation,” Erickson says.

And what better time to enjoy a cold brew than during football season? Umami offers game-time specials exclusively for Sunday, Monday and Thursday night football. You can do all your betting inside at Umami’s William Hill Sports Book, and catch all the action on more than 50 TVs both indoors and in the beer garden. Game-night specials kick off at 5:30 p.m. and include Budweiser and Bud Light buckets for $15, two-for-one Stella Artois drafts for $8 and two-for-$5 Budweiser and Bud Light bottles.

With three separate vibes, is Umami too overwhelming? Is it a spot with too many personalities? Quite the contrary, says Erickson. “We feel like opening Umami is a kind of evolution in the market.”
