Estiatorio Milos @ The Venetian

Estiatorio Milos is the Las Vegas room of Costas Spiliadis’s Greek seafood group, and since 2021 it has been at The Venetian rather than the Cosmopolitan, where it traded until 2020. The move changed the restaurant’s character as much as its address: the Cosmopolitan room was tucked into a corner and deliberately quiet, and this one is a large, bright space built around a central bar and an open kitchen.

The format is the same as the group’s other rooms. Whole fish are displayed on ice and chosen at the table, and the kitchen’s argument is that the less done to a good fish the better. What is new here is the raw bar — whole-fish sashimi, crudo and tartare, which the group had not run before Las Vegas — alongside a produce market you pick vegetables from and a yogurt room where Greek yogurt is strained through cheesecloth.

Hours

Lunch runs from 11.30am to 3pm every day. Dinner is 5pm to 11pm Sunday through Thursday and 5pm to 11.30pm on Friday and Saturday. Between 3pm and 5pm the bar and raw bar stay open while the dining room does not, which is the quietest way to eat here.

Booking and prices

Reservations go through the restaurant’s own site. We have not confirmed a price for this room and do not publish one: fish is sold by weight and the lunch menu is prix-fixe, so a headline figure would mislead either way.

Dress

No hats, tank tops, flip flops or swimwear. It is one of the more formal dining rooms on the Strip, and it reads that way at dinner more than at lunch.
