4 Vegas restaurants make Yelp’s list of most photographed in US

Updated August 15, 2024 - 7:31 pm

They were ready for their close-ups. And interiors. And food shots.

On Thursday, Yelp released its list of the Most Photographed Restaurants of the Year, based on how frequently users submitted images of a particular restaurant to the review platform.

Four Las Vegas spots made the 2024 list: Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen at No. 3 and Bacchanal Buffet at No. 5, both in Caesars Palace; Zippy’s, the Hawaiian comfort food place, at No. 11; and Mijo Modern Mexican Restaurant in Durango resort at No. 13.

Hell’s Kitchen sits right on the Strip, its exterior embossed with a giant neon pitchfork. The restaurant serves the celebrated chef’s signature dishes, including beef Wellington and sticky toffee pudding. Bacchanal Buffet ranks among the last of the grand old-school buffets on the Strip.

Zippy’s, in southwest Vegas, is the first mainland outpost of the Hawaiian mainstay known for its chili, plate lunch and Korean fried chicken. Mijo Modern Mexican (with hidden Wax Rabbit speakeasy) launched in December at Durango.

Honolulu, with four frequently photographed restaurants, tied with Vegas for the most spots on the list. New York City followed with three. Nep Cafe, a modern Vietnamese restaurant in Irvine, California, came in at No. 1. Visit here for the full list.
