Las Vegas MGM resorts have some of the best restaurants on the Las Vegas strip, including vegan restaurants and gluten free restaurants. Julian Serrano tapas, one of many Aria restaurants, is one of the best vegas restaurants on the strip, offering small plates, large plates, many vegetarian and gluten free options and even a few vegan options. If you’re searching for the best restaurants Las Vegas, be sure to check it out. We’ve been many times over many years, and we still think it has some of the best food in Vegas.

What a wonderful, lovely looking restaurant. It’s looks very high end, but the food looks delicious.

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

We just love getting fancy food in shorts and t-shirts 😂

@susan7038 21 день назад

My favorite restaurant in Vegas! The scallops are perfection!

@TheMidlifeRide 19 дней назад

They really are! We’ve never had a bad meal at this restaurant. Can’t say that about most others:)

@billandlisa 10 месяцев назад

Scallops looked great! We haven't been here yet, so thanks for the review, guys. Appreciate the tip at the end too.

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

Can’t wait to find out what you guys think about this place. We’re shocked you haven’t been -would have bet you’ve been everywhere…twice! 😂 Thanks so much for watching:)

@panjo 10 месяцев назад

nice place

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

They used to be open more hours, I think, back before COVID. It was a really great place to go at off-peak hours. Quiet, relaxing and delicious:)

@biba1220 10 месяцев назад

Great review and suggestions! One of my favorite places to go in Aria. I already have reservations when I'm staying there in October. Also, they have a seasonal white sangria that is excellent if you're into that type of drink.

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

We always used to get their sangria, but the red. I can’t do anything with peach flavor after overdoing it on Peach Schnapps in high school 😂

This was a great presentation. I loved the items you ordered and you are becoming good food presenters. Nice to see that. By the way, how is the dog?

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for the positive feedback! And, thanks so much for asking about our Trixie girl. She’s as sweet as can be. We’re currently trying to plan a trip to Vegas, but it’s proving to be very challenging.

@FrontiersmanAdventures 10 месяцев назад

15,000 Subscribers! You guys are amazing! The growth of your channel is awesome. I could eat the scallops, but I am not sure about anything else. I am just boring when it comes to food. You might be crying because you felt blessed at that moment to be trying something so delicious. Wow...that upsell was quite shifty. Not good.

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

Really? Are you just a meat and potatoes kinda guy? It’s cool. Eat whatever you enjoy. They have something for everyone:)

@Hestra34 10 месяцев назад

I love this place. I always go to this spot when visit Vegas. I love the lamb chops and filet minon. Can't believe no one else vlogs about this place. It's amazing 😊

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

We’ve always been blown away by their food. Wish they had kept some of our old favorites. They had a black rice dish with squid ink that we loved. We’ll have to try the lamp chops and filet. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@dylan19674 10 месяцев назад

Your reaction to the first bite of scallops was incredible! Tears? OMG. I hate seafood, even scallops; but I am extremely tempted to try them at JS Tapas just in case they can change my mind. Fun vlog, guys!

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

Lol! That would be so funny if they changed your mind about scallops. I doubt it though. I hate fish but I try it every now and then. Sometimes it’s less disgusting depending on how it’s prepared or flavored, but I can’t imagine ever really liking it:)

@Deana9528 10 месяцев назад

I wish you would of shown a photo of the menu. Sounds interesting. We always stay at the Aria and walk right past this place.

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

We never get good shots of the menus, unfortunately. But, it’s available on their website. Hopefully this link will work:) static.mgmresorts.com/content/dam/MGM/mgmresorts/menus/aria/julianserrano/menu.pdf

I need a Sound Bite of you saying “Oh Yeah” (Shishito Peppers)😂 Those Scallops look soooo good, nice to know they’re “cry-worthy”. Everything looked really good. Sneaky with the “up-sell”

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

@@LasVegasandBeyond I actually teared up every time Chris made me watch his edits. It’s the craziest thing! I’m almost afraid to get them again because it’s unlikely they’ll ever compare to my memory of them:)

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

We say that a lot, probably too much :)

@WiseMalik 10 месяцев назад

Love the " That's what SHE said " moments... I want those scallops like NOW!!!!! LOL!!! great review guys!! glad you're "back"? 😄 Be well.. Your videos are missed .. is this a recent trip to Vegas?

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

Glad you enjoy my humor, Malik! Chris was so sick on that trip that he didn’t laugh at any of my jokes. 😂 I could have eaten about 20 of those scallops! This was from our June trip. We’re still trying to figure out how to get back with Trixie. The planning is a nightmare, since we will have to drive from KY and so many” pet-friendly” hotels have German Shepherds on their restricted lists.

@WiseMalik 10 месяцев назад

@TheMidlifeRide have you considered an RV? A few strip hotels have an RV area for short and long term stay

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

@@WiseMalik We have considered an RV. It’s a huge commitment and expense if we aren’t 100% sure about it, though. (You know Chris has expensive taste.) I thought it would be easier just to drive over 3 or 4 days, stopping at hotels along the way, but I am sitting here pulling my hair out in frustration!

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

@@WiseMalik Also, Vegas isn’t the problem. Almost all MGM resorts will take her, including Cosmo. It’s getting there that is presenting the issue.

@stevencutler3855 10 месяцев назад

Up sell. Good to know.

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

We don’t remember that in all the times we’ve been there before, but we’ll be ready if it happens again!

@frontiertina 10 месяцев назад

I’ve never had scallops that make me cry 😢…dang😮! Walt would probably like those peppers 👍! Buyer beware on the “Up Sell”…yeah that’s kinda rude😮!Glad you guys enjoyed everything, though! Thanks for sharing!!

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

It’s probably my fault. I shouldn’t be so naïve. You’d think after 45 years that I’d be more skeptical and suspicious:)

@frontiertina 10 месяцев назад

@@TheMidlifeRide I would have thought the same way! Not naive… just good hearted 🥰!

@thefenster300 10 месяцев назад

Looks great. Me thinks they could fill the bowl at least half full with gazpacho.

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

At least it was a bowl! I think at Jaleo it was just a small glass:)

@stevencutler3855 10 месяцев назад

Hi Guys. Hope all is well. Generally speaking, if there is a dish that takes 60 mins. to prepare like the paella, can you order it when you make your reservation. Some Chinese places do that for the peking duck that can take a long to prepare?

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

That’s a great suggestion, Steven! We’ll have to ask next time. I would expect that they’d want a credit card or room info for the charge though, in case you don’t show up.

@stevencutler3855 10 месяцев назад

I was thinking that myself. You can't not show up. You should be charged for the dish.

@StraightOuttaVegas 10 месяцев назад

Wow! Another emotional food review. First Chris and now you😂 I would have probably said something to that con man of a waiter and on the check where it says TIP, I would have wrote "the extra scallop and bruschetta"

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

Lol! Wish I had thought of that! Honestly, he was so friendly up until he knew we weren’t going to order anything else. Then, he was just done with us. I think I did actually write a note on the receipt saying his methods were shady. But, we did leave a full tip.

@dennisarsenault6474 10 месяцев назад

How much was the bill

@TheMidlifeRide 10 месяцев назад

I think it was around $105 before tip. We also had a $20 coupon from the MyVEGAS app, so final total was $85 plus tip. Not bad at all for the quality and portion sizes.

@julietyler7446 10 месяцев назад

Looked good shame that he didn't say it would cost more for the 4 just good you loved it as would of been a different matter if you didn't 😊

Such a sweet comment. Men sometimes hum or grin when they savor particular delicacies. You have a refined palette. I hope to sample at Aria in August.
