When you think of Las Vegas, The Strip is the focal point of luxurious stays, memorable entertainment, and elaborate dining experiences. However, some of the true hidden gems that the city has to offer are found right off the strip. These spots provide some of the best service and personal quality touches that complement the popularity of the Vegas strip. Here are five places to visit the next time you’re in Las Vegas that will add to your city experience:
The Neon Museum
Vegas up in lights off the strip. If you’re looking for a bit of Las Vegas history, The Neon Museum gives you the full, flashy experience.

Monzú Italian Oven and Bar
The perfect Italian meal complete with the best craft cocktails and Italian wine is waiting for you off the strip. Chef Giovanni Mauro has assembled a quality Sicilian menu that will leave you speechless – and to top it off, the service is on point. From the minute you walk through the doors at Monzú, you feel like a VIP and a guest in Chef Gio’s kitchen. His pizza and bread are made from naturally leavened dough matured over five days. There’s no guilt when eating this bread, because it’s healthy; and it’s unlike anything you’ll eat in town. Some menu highlights include the Caramelle pasta, the Vegas Meets Italy pizza, and the Mega Board (it’s seriously epic).

Rooms with desert and golf course views, and a full-service spa make this resort a relaxing oasis with a luxury feel. Floor to ceiling windows at the back of the property overlook the lake, and Arabesque Bar provides the perfect spot to enjoy a drink with a view.
