Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Desert Shores

Great experience. I didn’t know Harlo was a strip level restaurant. Food, service, and ambience were great. No reason to point out anything specific, it was all good.

We visited Al Solito Posto for the first time for Valentine's Day dinner 2025. We arrived much earlier than our reservation, so we spent some time at the bar prior to dining. The cocktails were excellent, the bartenders were friendly, engaging and funny. After a much shorter wait than anticipated, our table was ready. We were sat in a comfortable and spacious booth, and greeted immediately by our server, Jenner. Simply put, Jenner was excellent and elevated every aspect of our experience. He was friendly, very knowledgeable about the menu, willing to share his opinions and input when requested, and his recommendations were spot on. Jenner had a great balance of professionalism, humor, and friendliness. He was by frequently, but didn't linger at the table too long. He was one of the best servers that we have experienced in our years in Las Vegas. The food was excellent as well. We started with the squash blossoms which were lightly breaded and generously filled with cheese. For entrees we had the Malfadine (cacio e pepe) and the pappardelle (and added 2 meatballs per Jenner's recommendation). Both plates were excellent with robust flavor and great texture. We finished with Tiramisu dessert which was light and flavorful. All dishes were beautifully plated, and the coursing of the meal was perfect. 10/10 would recommend. We will be back.

As frequent diners with a penchant for excellence, my partner, Dr. Williams, and I have had the privilege of experiencing countless fine dining establishments. However, nothing has quite compared to the unforgettable experience we had at JING. This exceptional restaurant goes far beyond providing delicious food; it offers an immersive, detail-oriented dining experience where every staff member’s dedication to their craft shines through. From the moment we entered, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism, an ambiance of care that permeates the entire dining experience. Our server, Madison, exuded the perfect balance of attentiveness and approachability, guiding us through the menu with an expertise that highlighted her deep knowledge of the dishes and wine pairings. Her recommendations were spot on, and the seamless manner in which she anticipated our needs made us feel not just like guests, but as if we were being personally taken care of by someone who genuinely cares about our enjoyment. Equally impressive were the restaurant’s managers, Alex and Ryan. Their hands-on approach to service is something you rarely encounter. Alex, with his infectious enthusiasm, went out of his way to engage with us, ensuring that every aspect of our evening was flawless. Ryan demonstrated a calm yet vigilant presence. Their dedication wasn’t just a reflection of their roles; it felt deeply personal. It’s clear that they are invested not only in the success of the restaurant but in crafting exceptional, individualized experiences for every guest. As we dined,it became evident that JING’s commitment to excellence is a reflection of its leadership and staff. From the flawless timing of each course to the careful presentation and exquisite flavors, every detail was executed with a level of care that left us thoroughly impressed. The genuine connections they make with their guests are a rarity in today’s world of dining. Good luck to Alex in his New Adventure. Dr.Ira Sternburg

Our experience was made by both the hostess stand greeting us and taking us to our table right when we arrived, along with all other service throughout the night! Everyone was friendly and kind, making it a great Valentine’s Day experience. Our server, Jonathan, greeted us right away and had great timing on delivery of all our corses. Both of our steaks were under, and the risotto was cold, but Jonathan did a great job helping us feel validated and correcting both errors quickly. He had the manager, Sean, deliver them to us once they were done, and he waited to make sure we were happy with the temp, which we were. Jonathan, Sean, and the hostess team really shined for us!

Excellent valentines dinner. So much food! We enjoyed everything 😀
