7501 W. Lake Mead Blvd.
Many area oenophiles credit Grape Street with bringing to Las Vegas the concept of the big-city wine bar, filling a marketing niche that was just waiting to happen. For those of us who aren't into a full bottle of the restaurant's extensive lineup of grapes' fruits, about 20 daily selections of wine by-the-glass are listed on a blackboard. Boison's earned your second-place nod.
Our Pick: GRAPE STREET
Grape Street has not just fine wine, but a fine menu as well. It's a busy place when things are hopping -- that translates pretty much to "every night" -- but don't worry. Just order up a glass of wine and sip away in the small lounge or on the outside patio. And next time you're planning a picnic, check out Grape Street's retail selection of wines, cheeses and similarly classy foodstuffs.
