There are 16 Del Frisco’s locations nationwide, but Las Vegas is the only one where you’ll find the portabella lump crab stack. Sous chef Kai Stockton’s creation layers chopped mushrooms atop a helping of avocado and jumbo lump crab meat and finishes it with pickled shallots and sweet soy aioli, $16.

EDO Gastro Tapas & Wine
Chinatown’s much-buzzed-about Spanish spot is quickly becoming a popular destination for vegans as well as omnivores, thanks to chef Oscar Amador’s expanding plant-based menu. One example of the TLC he devotes to those offerings is a plate of maitake and shimeji mushrooms, sautéed with al ajillo, set atop a puree of lemon verbena and cauliflower, drizzled with garlic and shishito-infused olive oil, and topped with micro-parsley, $9.
