Pizza at PT’s Taverns

If you’re like us, you usually snack on wings, nachos or burgers at your local PT’s, but the crispy, satisfying pizza at the iconic sports bar chain is underrated. On game day, a personal 10-inch pepperoni pizza is just $6 and full-sized pizzas are $14, and that feels like stealing. ptstaverns.com.

Stadium Nachos at WSKY

Terrible’s tavern brand just opened a huge location near Allegiant, but there’s nothing bigger than these nachos, with melty Boursin fondue, chicken al pastor, roasted ancho chile salsa, guac and so much more. wskystadium.com.

Crispy Wings at Flanker Kitchen & Sports Bar

Crispy Wings at Flanker Kitchen & Sports Bar

Flanker might be considered a fancy Vegas version of a classic sports pub, but the kitchen keeps it classic when it comes to these ideal chicken wings, available flavored with Salt & Lemon Pepper, Buffalo or Spicy Korean. flankerlv.com.

Warm Lobster Roll at Chickie’s & Pete’s

The Sahara sports bar has plenty of East Coast faves on the menu, none tastier or butterier (did we just invent that word?) than this savory seafood sandwich. chickiesandpetes.com.

Prime Rib French Dip at Tailgate Social

Prime Rib French Dip at Tailgate Social

There’s a cheesesteak on the menu at this Palace Station sports spot, but why bother? Opt for this masterpiece with thinly sliced prime rib, white cheddar and housemade horseradish cream on a toasted pretzel roll and dip away. tailgatesociallv.com.

Backyard Bacon Cheeseburger at Bar Code Burgers

It feels like we should only be watching UNLV sports at Bar Code, but this beautiful burger stacked with bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, Thousand Island dressing, American cheese and hot honey feels bold enough for the first Super Bowl in Vegas. barcodeburgerbar.com.

Poke Nachos at RedTail

Resorts World’s cool gaming bar does it all, including irresistible and shareable tuna poke with pickled sweet peppers and jalapeño vinaigrette on crispy won ton chips. zoukgrouplv.com/redtail.

Poutine Smothered Fries at Big Dog’s Brewing

The legendary local brewpub is one of those places where the food and beer grabs the spotlight no matter what’s on the TV, and the poutine-style fries with Wisconsin cheese curds and cremini mushroom gravy could be an appetizer or the main course. bigdogsbrews.com.

Bacon Mac & Cheese at the Front Yard

Bacon Mac & Cheese at the Front Yard

Ellis Island’s beer garden is one of the best off-Strip places to watch sports, but don’t expect anyone to pass you this dish of corkscrew pasta, bacon and cheddar cheese sauce made with the brewery’s own pilsner; order your own.ellisislandcasino.com.

The Hot Dog Cart at South Point

If you don’t already know about one of if not the best hot dogs in town, go figure it out—but hurry up, you don’t wanna miss the halftime show. southpointcasino.com.
