Happy Hour Gems: Many Strip French restaurants offer discounted apps and cocktails during weekday happy hours. This is when locals actually dine at these spots without tourist crowds.
Dress the Part: Fine French restaurants on the Strip enforce dress codes more strictly than casual spots. Business casual minimum, with jackets preferred for dinner at places like Robuchon and Guy Savoy.
Off-Peak Timing: Tuesday through Thursday dinners offer the best service and atmosphere at Strip French restaurants. Weekend nights bring crowds that can overwhelm even experienced kitchen teams.
