Think back to the days of getting dressed up, and served with what was considered ‘white glove service’ and that’s what you can expect at DJT. The luxury Trump International Vegas Hotel boasts a trendy eatery.

Exit your room, and head on over to the DJT. A great bar (with incredible Happy Hour specials) to elegant eats are about to make an appearance. Lavishly live culinary travel out loud and reserve your elegant dining experience at DJT in Vegas.
Elegant Dining Experience At DJT In Vegas
Dining at DJT
There’s nothing like going out in Vegas, you kind of ‘go big or go home’ if you are playing your cards right. A night at DJT exemplifies this as you will find, incredible meals, beautiful cuts of meat and delectable seafood.
Far from your typical Vegas dining experience, from seating to the atmosphere, DJT is set for elegance and a luxury date.
Inside the DJT
Seating on the outskirts of the center area is for those who wish to have a quick bite and drinks. However, you could arrange to sit there if you prefer.
Dress
I am headed down here, and I want to look right. Marble and shiny just says, Bling, please! So sparkles it was! So sorry I did not smile, I was rushing!
While there is no dress code, most were dressed in suit jackets and dresses. Those sitting on the outskirt seating, that goes around the inner seating were dressed down a bit because those are additional seats for the bar area.
The Bar
We spend a few hours at the bar between our busy agenda and I will tell you why. DJT’s bar has the BEST happy hour in town. It is not a well-known fact, but it is true. Beautiful large stemware with generous pours of Cab for just $6, and a few other drinks on the Happy Hour Menu for $6, and well-priced beers. But there are more, small plates for $5 and $6 from Chili to sliders. Plenty of people were enjoying both the Happy Hour libations as well as the food!
Because it is right in our hotel, we got ready to go out in Vegas, then sauntered down to the DJT bar, and hung out. When we’re ready we ordered our LYFT to get to the next stop. Honestly, I could have just sat there all night! We met some of the best people ever!
The Manhattan
This Manhattan will please even the most finicky connoisseur of Manhattan’s it is THAT good!
My husband is still talking about his Manhattan, as you either make them really right or really wrong. DJT Nailed it! Smooth, and crisp. But there’s more to the story. The presentation is everything. The etched glass, the over-sized cube, and the black cherry all added to the signature style Manhattan he enjoyed!
The Meal
Filet Mignon and a lovely field green salad were on my husband’s plate.
Here are both his salad and filet a lovely presentation.
I chose A fresh mozzarella salad, drizzled with balsamic, a common dish done uncommonly well!
The Mozzarella was magnificent! The Tomatoes just bursting with flavor, taking the salad to the next level!
Shrimp cocktail, seriously more like Prawn in size. The palm of my hand is how large they were.
You will no doubt savor every bite and there are PLENTY of bites on these shrimp!
and my glass of wine, which I still keep thinking about!
Dessert
To round out the romantic dinner, we split a brownie and vanilla bean ice cream, delectable!
Artistic, masterfully executed, upscale dining is what awaits you at the DJT. It’s not just for those of us that stay at the Trump Hotel in Vegas, rather for anyone with discerning tastes wanting more of an elegant vibe.
Did I forget to mention, smoke-free, casino free and plenty of security around to keep everything in check all the time, every day? Yes, etiquette, addictive ambiance, white glove service and appetizing food are all reasons to visit! Don’t forget there is an incredible Spa, and very luxurious digs at the Trump International Hotel Vegas as well!

This meal looks wonderful. I have not had dinner there, but I did have breakfast at DJT when we were staying at the hotel. The room feels very opulent and service is fantastic. I agree that this is a great hotel to stay in when visiting Las Vegas…I love that it is casino-free!

Oh wow, I can say that this is fancy and elegant dining at Vegas just by looking at your pictures. I hope it’s not required to wear dress 😛 but we will definitely check this out when we get there 🙂
Those happy hour deals sound awesome! This looks like a nice restaurant to enjoy a fancy dinner at while in Las Vegas . . . a place to take a break from some of the seedier or tourist-trap type places.
This gets my hands down vote for best in Vegas. Cocktails, bar and overall experience
