This week’s 5 best bets for dining in Las Vegas

Something new

Considering shrubs are all the rage these days, it’s only fitting that B&B Ristorante at the Palazzo has introduced the Noli’s Flip, made with a house-made berry shrub. In case you haven’t been initiated, a shrub has a hint of a vinegar tang; in this case it’s made with berries macerated in sugar and cut with Volpaia Champagne vinegar, garnished with lemon peel and blackberry. It’s $17.

Family fun

Help Bravo! Cucina Italiana celebrate its first anniversary by dining in Thursday and you can get a free dessert. The restaurant, which is at the Galleria at Sunset mall in Henderson, has introduced a number of new dishes, including the Pizza Bravo! thin crust topped with sopressata, pepperoncini, ricotta, mozzarella, chili flakes, basil and lemon aioli.

Solo trip

Skip lunch? Not on your life. Stop by Sake Rok at The Park (near T-Mobile Arena) between noon and 3 p.m. daily and you can try the restaurant’s lighter midday menu. Selections include Japanese wagyu sliders, $13; a seven-piece sashimi combination with rice and soup or salad, $22; and the Rok Box, with Rok Chicken, salmon or tempura shrimp and a veggie roll, soup and salad, $17.

ATTENTION ALL NINJAS! Come enjoy 2 for 1 wells, drafts, daiquiris and food specials from 3-6pm. #SakeRokLV pic.twitter.com/3fLDFCGv1y

Date night

Everybody likes a cheap date, and if you and your special someone stop by the Mojito Bar at the Seafood Shack at Treasure Island before Aug. 31, you can get a Seafood Shack House Muddled Mojito (Cruzan light rum and mint and blackberry, peach, raspberry or strawberry), Mermaid Mojito (Cruzan strawberry rum, fresh strawberries, mint, lime juice and soda) or a Seafood Shack House Muddled Fruit Margarita (Sausa Hornitos tequila, Patron Citronge Orange and sour mix and blackberry, mango, peach, pineapple, raspberry or strawberry) for $7 each.

For friends

Gather up your buds for First Friday in downtown Las Vegas’ Arts District and you can get a sneak peek at Libertine Social, scheduled to open later this summer at Mandalay Bay. At 7:30 and 8:30 p.m., Libertine chef Richard Camarotta will demonstrate dishes using farm-to-table produce from the Intuitive Forager farmers market.
