If you've always wanted to dine with the very best chefs in the world you can do it at the Wynn.
They offer over 15 restaurants, each built around award winning chefs.
For example, Chef Paul Bartolotta of the Ristorante di Mare was named the Best American Chef - Midwest by the James Beard Foundation. He's also earned the AAA Four Diamond Award for both 2007 and 2008.
The SW Steakhouse is a personal favorite of mine as it has both excellent food and incredible ambiance. A wall of glass windows opens out onto the outdoor patio which sits on the Lake of Dreams where you can watch the Water Fall show at night.
The SW Steakhouse is headed by chef David Walzog and won the AAA Four Diamond award for 2007 and 2008. It was called the 'Best Steakhouse in Las Vegas' by Las Vegas Life Magazine.
Alex is perhaps the top gourmet favorite - headed by Chef Alessandro Stratta. Alex was called the Best New Restaurant 2005 by Esquire magazine and received the AAA Five Diamond Award of Excellence for 2006, 2007 and 2008.
Unlike other restaurants that use a chef's name only, when you go to these restaurants you know that the chef is overseeing your meal himself.
One of the resort favorites is the Wynn Buffet. While it's on the pricier side of the buffet options, when you see the food, you'll understand why.
Sixteen live action cooking stations give you everything from prime rib to sushi to lamb to free range chicken and more.
The food is a higher quality than other Vegas buffets and the desserts (always an important way to judge a buffet) are excellent.
There's also casual dining restaurants like Sugar and Ice (sandwiches, coffee, pastries), Zoozacrackers (New York Style deli) and the Terrace Point Cafe (American Fare) which has terraced seating overlooking the pool and gardens.
Regardless of where you choose to eat, if you're going to one of the chef-inspired restaurants, reservations are recommended.
