The Fat Greek

The Fat Greek himself, Yanni Gourmroian, presides over this Vegas restaurant, a cheery white-and-blue space tucked inside a local strip mall. Expect Hellenic staples done right—not just your average feta salad or grilled octopus (though they do those well, too), but homey dishes like pasticcio, a baked pasta layered with meat sauce, bechamel and kefalotiri cheese, and avgolemeno, a chicken and rice soup imbued with lemon. Gourmroian is also a skilled baker, turning out desserts that should not be missed.
