The l arge order arrives as a massive 10-14oz serving. Ri Ra's battered cod comes served with hand cut chips/fries (along with an optional order of mushy peas).

Good fish and chips have fries that are perfectly built to absorb copious amounts of malted vinegar. The French fries shouldn't have too much crunch to them. The fish should be sizeable and have a good fish-to-crust ratio. The beerbatter needs to have a good crunch, be well seasoned and not too greasy. However, we're all about 'the best of the strip' and Ri Ra is the place to be for authentic fish and chips.įor me, perfect fish and chips have a few basic requirements. At Ri Ra the menu is full of fish dishes - Irish smoked salmon from Burren Smokehouse in Ireland, crab cakes, stout soaked mussels and the like. There is live Irish music every night of the week, and a massive selection of Irish beers, ciders and whiskeys. The Irish pub look and feel is pretty authentic considering it's about 8,000 kms from Las Vegas to the shores of Ireland. The Las Vegas location is one of about a dozen across the US. My parents are both British and I've been over to Ireland to judge a local food contest. I've tasted a lot of fish and chips in my day and I don't make this selection lightly. So, the next time you're in Las Vegas get out your rod and reel and see which of these catches is your favourite! Best Fish & Chips - Ri Ra Irish Pub at The Shoppes at Mandalay Bay Place I've chosen my favourites in a number of categories you'll see below and also paired each with a matching drink at every stop along the way. I spent a week 'fishing' on the strip to test out all of the greatest fish and seafood options. The options are vast and varied - to choose just one would be unjust and leave out so many great choices in various categories and price ranges. With this in mind choosing the top fish and seafood joints on the Las Vegas Strip is no easy task. BarMASA sets the bar fairly high and many others follow suit. Take for example barMASA at Aria Resort and Casino where Chef Masa Takayama refuses to serve his guests any Blu efin Tuna that has been out of Japanese coastal waters for more than 24 hours before it reaches their plate.

Some of the greatest fish restaurants in North America can be found up and down the famous length of Las Vegas Boulevard. One of my favourite sayings is: ' If you can't see the sea, don't order the fish.' I mean, y ou'd think the last place you should look for great fish and seafood would be in the middle of the desert? Alas, as with many other things, Las Vegas throws all caution to the wind and not only disproves this theory but rather obliterates it.
