Las Vegas is known for its vibrant nightlife, entertainment, and incredible food, but finding delicious gluten-free vegan options can sometimes be a bit of a challenge. On a recent trip, we managed to snag tickets to the Beatles LOVE Cirque du Soleil show at the Mirage, which was a magical, music-filled experience. But by the time the show ended, we had worked up an appetite and were on the hunt for a tasty, plant-based late-night meal.
The Quest for Gluten-Free Vegan Food in Vegas
After filling up on popcorn during the show, I was ready for something a little more substantial. So, I did a quick search for vegan-friendly spots that were still open late and stumbled upon Crossroads Kitchen in the Resort World Casino Hotel. It seemed like a promising choice, so we hopped into a taxi and made our way over!
Crossroads is a renowned vegan fine dining restaurant with locations in other cities, so I was thrilled to see that they’d opened one in Las Vegas. It’s not every day that you find a plant-based restaurant with a dedicated gluten-free menu, and Crossroads did not disappoint!
Dinner at Crossroads: Gluten-Free Vegan Goodness
The menu was packed with all sorts of mouth-watering options, from appetizers to desserts, with many clearly marked gluten-free items. After some deliberation, I settled on their Gluten-Free Sausage, Peppers, and Onion Pizza, complete with creamy cashew cheese. The idea of enjoying pizza at a fine dining spot had me intrigued, and I couldn’t wait to dive in.
When the pizza arrived, it looked absolutely delicious. The cashew cheese was melty and smooth, while the toppings were perfectly seasoned. I was pleasantly surprised by how well the flavors blended, making each bite super satisfying.
However, I did notice that the crust was very thin, which made it a bit of a challenge to lift and eat like a regular slice. Still, the thin crust gave the pizza a lightness that balanced the rich flavors, so I didn’t mind using a fork and knife. The taste was so good that the slightly flimsy crust was easy to overlook!
A Great Option for Plant-Based & Gluten-Free Travelers
Dining at Crossroads was a fantastic experience overall. The ambiance was sophisticated, and it’s refreshing to find a restaurant in Vegas that caters specifically to vegan and gluten-free diets without compromising on taste or quality. Their dedication to plant-based options is evident in every dish, and the flavor combinations show a lot of creativity
If you’re visiting Las Vegas and looking for a great spot to enjoy some plant-based fine dining, I highly recommend checking out Crossroads at Resort World. Whether you’re gluten-free, vegan, or just looking to try something different, this spot has a wide variety of options to explore.
