Gilley’s Restaurant Las Vegas, Treasure Island

Gilley’s Las Vegas, nestled within the Treasure Island Hotel & Casino, is a one-of-a-kind dining and entertainment destination that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the Wild West while embracing the vibrant energy of the Las Vegas Strip. As you step into the expansive dining room, you’re immediately greeted by the rustic charm of the decor, featuring genuine leather saddle seats at the long polished bar and an array of cowboy-inspired memorabilia. The oversized windows offer stunning views of the Strip and the enchanting pirate ships in Sirens Cove, creating an atmosphere that seamlessly blends the outdoors with the inviting interior.

At the heart of Gilley’s is its unwavering commitment to serving authentic, finger-lickin’ barbecue and classic country favorites that evoke memories of heartwarming home cooking. The culinary team, led by skilled and passionate chefs, takes great pride in using high-quality ingredients and traditional smoking techniques to create dishes that burst with flavor and satisfy even the most discerning palates. The menu boasts a tantalizing selection of slow-smoked meats, including the ever-popular hand-rubbed baby back ribs, which are meticulously smoked for 3-4 hours over a smoldering mesquite fire before being slathered with Gilley’s signature sauce and finished over an open flame to achieve a crispy, caramelized coating that seals in the flavors.

Other standout dishes include the tender and juicy brisket “filet,” which is slow-braised in apple juice and finished in the mesquite smoker, and the succulent pulled pork, a staple of any respectable barbecue joint. For those craving classic comfort foods, Gilley’s offers mouthwatering options like the cowboy burger, topped with pulled pork, pepper jack cheese, crispy onions, and a tangy Jack Daniel’s BBQ sauce, and the hearty chicken fried steak, served with creamy country gravy and all the fixings.

Gilley’s also caters to diverse dietary preferences and restrictions, ensuring that everyone can enjoy a satisfying meal. The plant-based Beyond Burger is a popular choice among health-conscious diners and vegetarians, while the crispy salmon Veracruz-style offers a lighter yet equally flavorful alternative to the meat-centric dishes. The restaurant’s commitment to accommodating various dietary needs is a testament to its dedication to providing an inclusive and enjoyable dining experience for all.

Beyond the delectable food, Gilley’s Las Vegas is renowned for its lively and entertaining ambiance that truly sets it apart from other dining establishments on the Strip. The restaurant features a stage that hosts an impressive lineup of live musical acts, showcasing the best of country, rock, and everything in between.

For those feeling particularly adventurous, Gilley’s iconic mechanical bull provides a thrilling opportunity to channel your inner cowboy or cowgirl. Weekly bull riding contests add an extra layer of excitement to the already buzzing atmosphere, with brave patrons vying for bragging rights and even cash prizes.
