Jaleo

  • Jaleo tapas restaurant

    Culinary mastermind José Andrés and his ThinkFoodGroup bring the authentic flavor of a Spanish tapas restaurant to Las Vegas with the award-winning Jaleo restaurant, re-imagined to evoke the excitement and spectacle of Las Vegas. A perennial favorite in Washington, D.C., Jaleo was one of the country's first successful tapas restaurants, setting the standard for Spanish cuisine in the United States.

    Signature dishes

    • Paella like none other, cooked over a large wood-burning grill for a true taste of Spain.
    • Jamón ibérico de bellota from Spain, the most luxurious cured meat in the world. This acorn-fed pork is a signature item of Jaleo, which was the first restaurant in the US to offer it.
    • An ancient Spanish wine drinking tradition, the porrón is a 25-ounce pitcher designed for easy sharing – but Jaleo doesn’t limit it to wine, offering a variety of delicious options to choose from.
    • Whether a rich red Rioja, a sparkling Cava, or a sweet, icy Sangria, Jaleo's premium Spanish wines dazzle and delight.
