Lotus of Siam

Top choice in Las Vegas


Saipin Chutima's authentic northern Thai cooking has won almost as many awards as her distinguished, geographically diverse wine cellar. Critics have suggested this might be America's best Thai restaurant and we're sure it's at least very close. Although the strip-mall hole-in-the-wall may not look like much, those in the know flock here. Reservations essential.
