Tamba Las Vegas, award-winning, family run and heralded purveyor of contemporary regional Indian cuisine, returns to redefine culinary excellence once again with its re-debut on Las Vegas Blvd. Emerging from a tale woven with threads of rebirth, recreation and refinement, Tamba returns after two decades with a renewed vision – elevating and reinterpreting Indian regional cuisine for an unparalleled, immersive dining experience.
Debuting Summer 2024, Tamba embarks on a journey of culinary introspection and innovation, marinating in the essence of its revered past with a modernistic allure. At the heart of Tamba lies its menu, a poetic ode to its ‘Land to Table’ ethos. Crafted with the rhythms of harvest, season, and nature as its compass, the menu orbits around a raw bar, a charcoal oven, a Arabic manghal grill, a clay tandoor, and an Asian wok, each culinary style narrating tales of exotic spices and delicate Asian influences, reminiscent of faraway lands.
Steering the helm of Tamba’s culinary voyage is the esteemed Chef Anand Singh, hailing from Arbol at Las Ventanas al Paraiso. Remaining faithful to tradition while elevating and reinterpreting Indian food to a new vision and experience, the menu is designed as a tour through Indian cooking techniques – starting with surprising raw bar options like the Indian Ceviche (Mackerel, Kashmiri Chili, Yuzu Emulsion, Pickled Cucumber, Jicama, Crispy Nori, Black Truffle), moving into live fire dishes cooked on a mangal style charcoal grill like Wagyu Kabobs (Onion, Mint Avocado Edamame, Onion, Chutney, Quinoa, Citrus Dressing) or the wok-based Anand’s Hak (Hakka inspired Stir Fried Noodle, Sambal Oelek, citrus soy). The menu also includes the Chef’s signature Lobster Bisque, and new takes on old favorites like the Sous Vide Murgh Makhani (Free Range Chicken, Tomato, Onions, Creamy Cashew Gravy) that will put any run-of-the-mill Butter Chicken to shame.
In addition to Tamba’s well curated cocktail program meant to be balanced with its signature dishes, guests can also expect a roving tableside bar cart with high-end whiskeys including LOUIS XIII Cognac by Remy Martin and rare casks from Macallan and Johnny Walker label, to name a few.
More than just a gastronomic odyssey, every aspect of the Tamba dining experience has been carefully crafted to transport the diner to a night of discovery and adventure. From the architecture to the meticulously designed 6,000 sq. ft. floor plan, to the lighting (a perfect 2700 degrees kelvin throughout the entire facility) to the imported desert oak walls, Tamba is a deliberate, curated experience. The revamped architecture of Tamba unveils a 160-seat ensemble, segmented into three distinct dining arenas. At the center of it all is Tamba’s flagship experience, their 20-seat private dining alcove where guests can indulge in intimate gastronomic rendezvous of some of the most exciting tasting menu selections available anywhere on or off the Strip. The two additional spaces, one entwined around a finely crafted bar and the other dedicated to an immersive dining expedition, beckon patrons into a realm of culinary exploration.
“Tamba Las Vegas epitomizes a legacy of excellence, embodying a rich heritage of family tradition and unparalleled hospitality,” said Tamba’s Sunny Dhillon. “As the torchbearer of my father’s esteemed brand and learning by his side for the last 33 years, I wanted to continue to craft a narrative of opulence, honed from a lifetime of global experiences garnered from traveling the world experiencing the best of the best from a very young age. This is Tamba 2.0 – the legacy continues. With meticulous attention to detail, Tamba reemerges as a testament to a vision where every element, from seating to cutlery, converges to elevate the dining experience. In a city known for its extravagance, Tamba stands apart, offering a culinary journey where the focus is solely on you and the essence of exquisite cuisine.”
With a soft spoken yet masterful presence, Chef Anand’s culinary narrative is deeply rooted in the rich tapestry of Indian and Pan-Asian traditions. Spending years refining his cooking style, from his roots in Mumbai to his wealth of coastal cuisines accrued over a decade across the Maldives, Seychelles, United Arab Emirates and Cabo San Lucas – today, his contemporary Indian menu focuses on bright, fresh ingredients along with coastal proteins to create a broad array of flavors and options that surprise and delight his diners. Following a harvest-to-table philosophy that centers the highest quality ingredients possible, Tamba combines authentic classics with clean, dynamic new dishes. Raw, live fire, charcoal, and finally tandoor-cooked options make up the primary steps along this new culinary journey.
As Tamba’s doors swing open at Town Square August 2024, epicures are invited to partake in a dining odyssey where every bite is a chronicle, every meal a journey into the heart of a refined gastronomic legacy. Diners with a taste for adventure or a thirst for the undiscovered should look for more information at and reservations tambalasvegas.com or follow Tamba on Facebook and Instagram.

Steering the helm of Tamba’s culinary voyage is the maestro, Chef Anand Singh. Anand, a native of Uttarakhand, India, traversed the culinary landscapes of the Maldives, Seychelles, United Arab Emirates and Cabo San Lucas accruing a wealth of coastal cuisines over a decade, before anchoring his gastronomic expertise in Las Vegas, where he collides bright, fresh ingredients with generational flavors and dishes to create stunning work deeply rooted in Indian and Pan-Asian culinary tradition.
Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop is excited to celebrate National Wagyu Day on June 21 by offering a special treat to its customers. Fans of the renowned sandwich franchise can enjoy a free small American Wagyu sub, or any sub of their choice, by signing up for Capriotti’s text offers at capriottis.com.
In a recent survey of 1,500 Americans, only 35% of people have ever eaten American Wagyu. In the survey, 55% of those who have tasted American Wagyu recall their first time having it was at a steakhouse. With its permanent menu offering of four craveable American Wagyu sandwiches, Capriotti’s makes the premium protein more accessible to all and wants America to know more about it.
National Wagyu Day on June 21 is a celebration of the famous Japanese beef known for its exceptional marbling and exquisite taste. To educate America on the favorite meat among food enthusiasts and connoisseurs worldwide, Capriotti’s is teaching fans and their taste buds all about American Wagyu through its “Wagyu U” content series on two popular social media platforms.
The first three Wagyu U lessons are:
- Wagyu is pronounced “WAA ᐧ gyoo.” In Japanese, “Wa” means “Japanese” and “gyu” means “cow.”
- American Wagyu is a crossbreed of purebred Japanese Wagyu and primarily American Black Angus, combining the best traits of both breeds.
- A select few quick-service restaurants offer the premium protein, including a selection of four original sandwiches at Capriotti’s.
All American Wagyu beef at Capriotti’s comes from Snake River Farms, the pioneer in American Wagyu. Snake River Farms livestock are raised on ranches throughout the Northwest and their proprietary herd of American Wagyu cattle is featured on the menus of the finest restaurants and specialty retailers around the world — including Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop.
Capriotti’s decision to allow customers to experience American Wagyu for free is a testament to its passion for premium ingredients and delicious flavors.
“By giving customers the opportunity to savor the taste of American Wagyu beef for free on National Wagyu Day, Capriotti’s aims to treat our fans to an exceptional experience that will leave them craving more,” said Ashley Morris, CEO of Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop. “By celebrating National Wagyu Day in this special way, we’re reaffirming our position as a leader in the premium sandwich industry.”

After operating out of the Vegas Test Kitchen for the last two years, Yukon Pizza is going brick and mortar. The beloved pizza concept is opening its very own doors in the Huntridge Neighborhood (inside the Huntridge Shopping center at 1130 East Charleston Suite 160), and promising a menu full of its popular sourdough pizzas, sourdough battered bites, as well as sandwiches, salads, and rotating specials paired with packaged beer and wine from area partners Alt Imports and Silver Stamp.
Although sourdough starters were all the rage during the pandemic, Yukon Pizza’s story starts well beyond two years ago. Founder Alex White’s Great-Great-Grandpa Gilbert started the family yeast culture during the Klondike Gold Rush in the Yukon Territories. From there, pieces of the starter were passed down through the generations, ultimately, getting into White’s hands as a high school graduation gift and college send off.
Even after that, though, White mostly used the starter for crafting sourdough pizzas for house parties and morning-after pancakes.
Today, it’s a much different story. With an ownership team consisting of Alex White, Cameron White, Dani Garcia-White, and Chef Justin Ford – as well as a tight-knit team that feels like family – Yukon Pizza is ready to take the family’s sourdough starter to the next level.
“For the past 100+ years, my family’s starter has brought people together, sharing good food and great memories,” White said. “We are beyond stoked to continue that tradition, bringing the community together to enjoy some awesome pizza and additional bites. Bringing our historic roots to one of Las Vegas’ historic neighborhoods is about as perfect as it gets.”
The Pizza
Yukon Pizza brings so many tasty options to the table! From traditional pies – including Neapolitan, Detroit, and New York styles – to specialty slices, and even vegan options, guests will want to make room to try them all. A few highlights include:
- The Y-Train – Yukon’s take on the classic New York style pizza with a robust New York tomato sauce, oregano, parmesan, shredded mozzarella, roasted garlic oil, and basil
- The Grandpa White – Named after all the grandpas in the White family, the “Grandpa” White Pie is a Yukon knockout! The fresh-baked sourdough crust is topped with garlic oil, oregano, shredded mozzarella, whole milk mozzarella slices, parmesan, fresh basil, and ricotta dollops, making this pizza a dinner winner!
- Neapolitan Style Pepperoni – A house-made, classic sourdough Neapolitan style pizza with parmesan, San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, and pepperoni
- Hey, I’m Vegan here! – Vegans rejoice – this New York pizza is what dreams are made of! Featuring Teese vegan mozzarella, this classic sourdough pizza with bold, flavorful New York sauce, vegan mozzarella, and fresh basil will have even carnivores coming back for more
But There’s More
Yukon Pizza’s menu is rounded out with more than just pizza (though sourdough may be a theme). Additional dishes include:
- Fresh salads like the Kale and Brussels Sprouts Salad, Peach and Burrata Salad, or the classic House Salad paired with house-made sourdough croutons
- Sandwiches like the Eggplant Parm Sando and the Yubano, both served on in-house made sourdough bread
- Sourdough battered bites like the Cauliflower Buffalo Wings and Calamari
- Pup cups for the furry friends
- Plus, a rotating menu using seasonal and local produce
The Space
It’s all about the neighborhood at Yukon Pizza’s brick and mortar. With just 13 seats in the dining room, the space is welcoming and cozy, while a takeaway window (open late) offers quick service for individual slices and full pies. The Yukon Pizza that our community has come to know and love will be serving lunch and dinner from 12pm until 10pm Wednesdays through Sundays.
For more information, visit Yukon Pizza online at YukonPizza.com or on Instagram or Facebook @YukonPizza, and continue to catch Yukon Pizza and their delicious pies at Vegas Test Kitchen Thursdays through Sundays, until their brick and mortar opening!

Leaving fine dining Italian cuisine for American BBQ, James Beard nominated and Bravo Top Chef favorite Chef Bruce Kalman opens his first Las Vegas restaurant with business partner Richard Camarota, dubbed Soulbelly BBQ, in the heart of the Downtown’s Arts District May 12th.
Kalman says, “I came to Las Vegas because a chef friend of mine convinced me it was a great place to start a business. I’ve been so warmly welcomed by the incredible culinary and business community. I want Soulbelly to be something special that celebrates the amazing soul of Las Vegas and its people. We’ve held a series of pop-ups to build momentum, but it’s finally time to show the city of Las Vegas what we’ve been smoking!”
“We saw an opportunity to bring a totally new experience to Las Vegas’ growing off-strip dining scene. The combination of great, honest barbecue, cooler beers, American whiskey and live music is something we’re really passionate about and excited for people to enjoy. We’re also really proud and grateful to be joining this awesome family of indie restaurants, bars, shops in the area; the whole neighborhood is set to explode with energy as the world re-opens,” says Camarota.
From fine Italian to American BBQ – Chef Bruce Kalman’s Evolution
A veteran chef, Kalman became most known for his time at and ownership of LA’s Knead & Co. Pasta Bar + Market and Pasadena’s UNION, where he wowed diners with his Italian cuisine.
Committed to art of cooking, Kalman has always prided himself on house-crafted dishes created with the best-quality ingredients. In a kismet meeting, Kalman found himself at a charity event also attended by Backbeat BBQ founder and Foo Fighters Front Man Dave Grohl. To help Grohl serve the crowds, Kalman was introduced to the passion, effort and incredible community of American BBQ. From that experience, Soulbelly BBQ was born.
A Chef’s Take on Regional American BBQ
Coming from a very different side of the culinary industry “barbecue has been humbling,” says Kalman. “I really wanted to respect the tradition while putting my own spin on my meats. I’m taking a little more of a chef’s approach than a pitmaster’s, though the heart of the industry and culture can still be tasted.”
Signature #jigglymeatdishes include Kalman’s Salt & Pepper Brisket, Carolina Pulled Pork, Chipotle Cider Glazed Drumsticks, Pork Spare Ribs, housemade Hatch Chile and Cheddar Hot Links, and Texas Sausages.
Sides That Don’t Suck
From handcrafted pasta and chicharrón breadcrumbs for the Mac and Cheese, to extensive recipe testing for the Coleslaw, Kalman dedicated his efforts toward ensuring that each dish on Soulbelly BBQ’s menu was crafted with full flavor in mind.
Further showcasing his creative side, Kalman has adorned the bar menu with rotating bites like Pigs In A Blanket, Frito Pie, Pickled Eggs, Chicharrón Chips, Pimento Cheese Dip and more.
Cooler Beer & American Whiskey
Soulbelly BBQ’s beer and cocktail program features American beers like Lone Star and Shiner, alongside locally brewed Nevada beers. Most notably, HUDL Brewing, Soulbelly BBQ’s next-door neighbor, is specially brewing the Charred & Shifty – an American red made with Garrison Brothers barrel ashes in the mash.
Putting the Soulbelly spin on classic cocktails, the menu is dressed with sips including an Old Fashioned and Mint Julip, beside twists like the Sweet Tea Sangria and the Lunch Box.
A Garage With Rustic Soul
This former automotive garage turned restaurant was carefully designed to reflect and honor the culture surrounding American BBQ. Murals on each side of the space showcase iconic figures like the Queen of Texas BBQ and pitmaster Tootsie Tomanetz, alongside southern musicians like Koko Taylor and Buddy Guy.
Again tying in Kalman’s love for music, the restaurant has a 16-by-8 foot stage, which will soon become home to live musicians. A few special accent features include Soulbelly BBQ’s mascot, an antique metal pig now named “Lambchop,” and the vintage beverage cooler parked near the front of the restaurant.

With Las Vegas’ restaurants opening back up, food lovers are going to have seemingly endless options to choose from. If you are looking for a way to experience as many restaurants as possible, now you are able to eat and explore their way through the city like never before with an innovative, private, self-guided, e-assisted culinary tour created by Finger Licking Foodie Tours. The brand-new company represents a follow-up, companion business to the successful Lip Smacking Foodie Tours created by Las Vegas entrepreneur and hospitality-industry veteran, Donald Contursi.
The new self-guided Finger Licking Foodie Tour offers guests a carefree, fun-filled way to enjoy an array of Instagrammable dishes at Las Vegas’ top restaurants in one outing – without the hassle of doing loads of research or making reservations on their own.
But unlike the companies’ other tours, the pioneering Finger Licking Foodie Downtown Las Vegas self-guided tour doesn’t have an actual tour guide who leads patrons from venue to venue. Instead, this tour, with a minimum requirement of just two patrons, is designed to be a more intimate and individualistic experience. Guests have the flexibility to book their tour anytime between 11:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. They are then provided with an online map, as well as a link to an innovative virtual tour guide who provides commentary for each fascinating stop along the way. As guests make their way through this 2.5-hour experience in the city’s exciting, revitalized downtown, they will visit three acclaimed restaurants, where they will be well taken care of as they enjoy three unforgettable dishes at each venue. On top of that, they will receive a 15 percent discount off the regular price of any other menu items they would like to try at any of the establishments.
As a “thank you” to essential workers who performed their important jobs tirelessly and bravely during the recent mandated shelter-in-place and in anticipation of the local culinary scene’s reopening, Finger Licking Foodie Tours is accepting nominations to receive a complimentary Self-guided Downtown Las Vegas tour for two. Nominees may include healthcare workers, postal workers, janitorial personnel, delivery drivers, grocery-store employees and all others who have remained on the front lines during the pandemic. Ten tours for two will be awarded and nominations may be made here.
Lip Smacking Foodie Tours was founded five years ago to offer gourmet walking tours featuring prime-time dining and VIP service at the most exclusive restaurants. After quickly gaining numerous accolades and repeat customers, Contursi decided to expand on the concept with Finger Licking Foodie Tours, which was established in 2019 to provide a more casual romp with crowd-pleasing noshes at a can’t-be-beat price.
Besides the self-guided tour, Finger Licking Foodie offers two group tours: The Las Vegas Strip Foodie Tour is a 2.5-hour afternoon experience that leaves plenty of time for a night out on the town afterward. Guests visit four exciting stops on each tour, which combines sensational sight-seeing with craveable dishes. Each tour’s itinerary remains under wraps – for maximum anticipation and surprise. Knowledgeable and charismatic local guides keep the atmosphere lively by spotlighting some of the most distinctive sights and fascinating facts along the way. Guests who opt for the Downtown Las Vegas Foodie Tour enjoy all these same benefits while visiting four neighborhood restaurants run by local chefs who have made a name for themselves in the dynamic, art-filled, revitalized downtown.
“Everyone loves to eat, but they also value bang for the buck, especially now as we’ve come through an unprecedented time in this country,’’ Contursi says. “I wanted to create a way for people to celebrate dining out again without breaking the bank. I wanted to make them feel special after all they’ve been through. Our new self-guided tour option, which is unlike anything else around, is perfect for people who prefer a smaller group setting.’’
Finger Licking Foodie Tours start at $79 per person, and are perfect for singles, couples, and groups of friends or families. Click here to make a reservation.
