In 70 years of service El Cortez has had quite the variety of menu options. With the celebration of out 70th anniversary we decided dust off our older recipe books and pull out some classic favorites. The dishes we picked are some of Las Vegas’ classics and were featured at the town’s best resturants in years gone by. Restaurants such as Sultan’s Table at the Dunes, Delmonico’s at the Riviera, The House of Lords at the Sahara, La Vie en Rose at the Desert Inn and Saver Room at the Aladdin, all of whom gave us some of the best dishes this town has seen.

Our chefs are proud to present these items for your dining pleasure:
