- Why this month: March weather makes off-Strip night outings easier, and the big convention crowd keeps late-night kitchens busy.
- Best time: After 8pm
- Book by: Usually same day; reserve if you're targeting a specific omakase or popular Thai spot
- Crowds: Moderate to high on weekends
- Spring Mountain Road is where you go when casino food starts feeling samey. March is a great month for hot bowls of ramen, pho, khao soi, dumplings, and Korean BBQ.
- Don't miss: Lotus of Siam for northern Thai dishes or Pho Kim Long for a late-night broth reset
- Insider tip: Split rideshare with your group and order across cuisines; Chinatown works best when nobody is trying to be efficient.
