About Best Friend

Best Friend is Roy Choi's lively Korean-American restaurant at Park MGM, built around the feeling of a neighborhood market, bar, and dining room rolled into one. The menu blends Korean flavors with Los Angeles influences through shareable plates, noodles, rice dishes, barbecue, and banchan-style accompaniments.

The restaurant has a distinctly social energy, from its market-style entry to the music and colorful dining room beyond it. It works particularly well for groups, date nights, and diners who want a memorable resort dinner that feels more playful than traditional fine dining.

Best Friend is especially convenient to consider around a Dolby Live evening: it sits across the casino from the theater, and Park MGM advertises late service on show nights. Confirm the kitchen's last seating for your particular date before treating it as a guaranteed post-show meal. The resident-DJ atmosphere is part of the draw, so choose it for a social night rather than an especially quiet dinner.

The current menu goes beyond barbecue, with seafood options such as aguachile and whole fish alongside larger dishes designed for a table to share. Discuss portion sizes and dietary needs when ordering. For a celebration, ask about the private dining room or group-dining arrangements instead of assuming several separate reservations can be seated together; the resort also offers online ordering when a seated dinner does not fit your plans.

The highlight of my trip to Las Vegas was dining at Best Friend Restaurant. Opting for the chef's menu, every dish served from beef to chicken, sides to dessert, and shrimp was absolutely stunning. The slushie was a standout, although quite strong. The decor is fantastic, and while it's a bit loud for quiet conversations, the vibe is undeniably cool.

Had my first experience at Best Friend Restaurant in Las Vegas, and it instantly became a favorite! The food is fresh and bursting with flavor, leaving nothing to be desired. The Kimchi Fried Rice was some of the best I’ve tasted, with a perfect hint of spice enhancing its deliciousness. The dessert was an impressive mix of inviting flavors, presented beautifully on one plate. The customer service was excellent, with our attentive waitress checking in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed and more.

Korean street food restaurant that serves family style. We were seated at the VIP table next to the kitchen. From the time we were seated the staff was very attentive, polite and very knowledgeable about the menu and offered suggestions for our group to try. The Music is a whole vibe with a 90's and early 2000's playlist. Let's just say you could dance and eat the music is so good. The decore is retro, and entrance looks like a bodega (corner store) with a bar and restaurant with a flash back to the 80's/90's & early 2000's. The food and presentation was awesome and definitely didn't disappoint, everything came out pipping hot, well SEASONED and flavorful. The bartender was tending...and kept the drinks flowing and were delicious and strong! Hands down one of the BEST culinary experience I've had in a while. That's my BEST Friend!!!!!
