While fine-dining is a big part of Las Vegas, there are also plenty of places in town that are perfect for family gatherings as well. If you are looking for some place that the kids will really love, then check out one of the themed restaurants in town. Go wild at the Rainforest Café or learn a little bit about history at the Tournament of Kings. Another fun and educational spot is America at New York New York. If you’re looking for something quick and simple, try a famous Las Vegas buffet like the one at Circus Circus.

Kids love themes and Las Vegas is just to the place to come to find themed-well, pretty much-anything. A favorite among kids is the Tournament of Kings dinner show. More than just a restaurant, this interactive experience will be both educational and fun for your family. Sit arena-style as you watch kings battle on horseback. An entire story will unfold before your eyes as you eat your meal without utensils just as they did many years ago. Kids will be assigned a color and so they can cheer on the king with their corresponding color. The show is fun and is a great activity for the whole family to do at night. Another fun place to eat is the Rainforest Café which is a tropical-themed restaurant with special effects that create a fun atmosphere for kids. Animals on the walls come to life and rain and thunder pour through the restaurant every so often while you are eating. They also offer an entire menu of kid-friendly entrees.

If you are looking for something a little more educational, America at New York New York has a larger than life map of the U.S. with fun facts about each state written in different parts of the restaurant. The menu also teaches you about our country by serving dishes from different regions of the U.S. Kids can enjoy dishes from all over the country while they learn a little bit about its history.

When all else fails and you are just looking for a place to eat quickly as a family, choose one of the buffets that Las Vegas is famous for. Buffets in Las Vegas are not like any of the buffets you may have tried at home. Many offer world-class food with a large selection so everyone can find something they enjoy. We suggest the Circus Buffet for a family-friendly atmosphere and kid-friendly entrees.
