Looking to try something different, something new?  Are you tired of the same old fast food joints and overly crowded chain restaurants?  Well if you are looking for a cool, chic locale to hang out with a few friends and grab a mouth savoring, visually stimulating bite to eat, look no further than Stephano's Mediterranean Grill.  With two locations, one in Henderson, Nevada and the other within the heart of Las Vegas.

Stephano’s is a short drive away for the family, a girl’s night out or a drink with the fellas.  The restaurant has been featured in the Review Journal among other publications as a top rated hot spot. Stephano’s offers catering for both corporate and social events including business meetings, holiday parties, weddings, birthdays and more. They will wow your guest with its Mediterranean melody of fresh vegetables including tomato, aubergine (eggplant), potato, green beans, okra, green peppers, and onions.  Aromatic spices such as oregano, mint, garlic, onion, dill and bay laurel leaves add flavor to Stephano’s famous dishes.

Stephanos’ menu consists of area favorites such as their choice of gyros, the beef and lamb gyro wrap and the cheese gyro wrap.  Both wraps are served with hearty servings of beef and lamb cuts, the real deal carved off the spit cuts, not pre-packaged frozen slices. The gyros are served with plenty of sliced onions and tomatoes and genuine tzatziki sauce, made of strained yogurt (usually from sheep or goat milk) mixed with cucumbers, garlic, salt, olive oil, and dill or mint or parsley and served cold, not the Americanized ranch dressing variation that some places serve.

Other Stephano’s favorites include various kebab meals and the many Greek salad choices.  Stephano’s serves a chicken kebab accompanied by rice pilaf, a filet-mignon kebab, shrimp kebab, and a veggie kebab.  Each dish is seasoned to perfection and served with rice pilaf and complimenting sauces.  The veggie kebab is served with mushrooms, tomato, onion, zucchini, and bell peppers.  With choices of Greek salads including the original Greek, chicken kebab salad, beef and lamb gyro salad, the chicken swarma salad are just to name a few famous Stephano’s salads.

All in all, if you are looking for a great time with great people in an atmosphere centered around Greek culinary culture combining food with happiness, then you have found the right place.  Stephano's Mediterranean Grill is waiting to show you what true Greek cuisine is all about.
