One of the most chill places to hang on a weekend morning is Giada, the namesake restaurant of Food Network star Giada De Laurentiis. The dining room overlooks Las Vegas Boulevard, and morning light creates a relaxed mood. The restaurant offers a variety of breakfast items with a decidedly Italian twist. Steak and eggs features a flat iron steak, toast, lemon-smashed potatoes and salmoriglio, a condiment with lemon juice, olive oil and garlic, while the Sunrise Polenta Waffle is served with pancetta, béchamel sauce and two sunny-side up eggs. Salads, pastas and paninis are also available. And whatever your entrée might be, do order the pastry basket. The rosemary-Parmesan scone is practically perfect.

Dinner entrées start with seafood, a California staple, which is where Di Laurentiis grew up (and the dining room is accented by framed posters from her famous director grandfather’s movies). The seafood tower delivers oysters, crab lobster and shrimp in two sizes. Antipasti has a range of items, from flatbread to bacon-wrapped dates. Salmon, branzino and chicken piccata stand alongside robust offerings like the 28-ounce bone-in Tuscan ribeye, served with a sunny-side-up egg. The handmade pastas include classics like cacio e pepe bucatini, pictured, and rigatoni with a pork ragout. Giada’s signature lemon spaghetti tops the dish with shrimp. And with the extensive wine collection, you’ll find a dizzying array for every flavor of your meal.
