Vegas has so much to do, and spending a day of the strip of Las Vegas was a good choice. We really wanted to see Hoover Dam and I heard that there were some incredible photograph opps off the Vegas Strip.
Program your GPS out of Vegas and go to the Hoover Dam. The Dam is literally 25 minutes off the strip (without traffic) or 40 with. Either way, the drive is easy, the scenery is fantastic and the Hoover Dam is awesome. You can squeeze in so many things to do in Vegas, just make sure you squeeze in the Hoover Dam.
If you have been eating on the Vegas Strip you know the food is delicious, but there’s more to experience for those culinary enthusiasts. Today, lavishly live food and travel out loud. I am about to share a secret of where to Squeeze In For lunch after the Hoover Dam.
Where To Squeeze In For Lunch After The Hoover Dam
Today’s post was based on a lunch that was hosted, that’s what I do visit and share! Honestly, I only write about the best of the best and I would be smitten if I did not share these eats. Oh, My – just get to Squeeze In and enjoy. Images and content are mine based on this amazing dining experience, that I want YOU to try to. It’s a local hang and they know good food!
You know, once you are off the strip, and off the highway, you actually are in neighborhoods. They are beautiful. But where do you stop to eat? I know where you can eat both breakfast and lunch and the libations, and portions will blow you away! How much can you Squeeze Into your day? A lot!
Personally, the earlier you get to the dam the better. Originally we were supposed to be on a tour, but I did not want to be pinned to their time frame. Instead, we drove so we could do more and see more. I have to really feel like I got to know the area before I will cover it, and our personal drive was the best.
Further, those tour groups totally congregate and descend upon the dam area by about 10 AM, so get there early, enjoy without the crowds and then leave. Alrighty then, you have walked, snapped photos, shared on social media and now your belly is a rumbling. Also, you have been off the Vegas Strip a while so I bet you could use a drink? Yep, I can tell you where to Squeeze In Lunch!
Where is Squeeze In?
So if you leave the Hoover Dam you are just about 20 minutes away, and then back into the Las Vegas strip from there for another 15 minutes! You are super close to everything. Let this be the ONE stop you make. Locals eat here and keep coming back. While we were sitting there in fact, Jahlisa (our server) pretty much knew everyone coming in and going out.
Destination: Located in the Regal Plaza at 8876 S. Eastern Ave, Las Vegas 89123, near the intersection of S. Eastern and the 215 Freeway. It is in the back part of the plaza, there is plenty of parking and it has few little aliens outside.

Enjoy a sampling before you really have a go at one of their drinks.

Drinks
Are like double shots on all the alcohol, just fair warning. I had a DD with me, so I whooped it up.
Pescetarians/Vegetarians Can Eat Here —My sandwich The Mind Melt
Manoukian Mind Melt – Solid Albacore Tuna, red onions, celery, melted cheese and I asked for AVO too – Holy Happiness on a plate.
But the real yum was the extra – the Garlic Fries. A light hand is controlling the garlic, yet it is deep enough to belt that taste up a few notches!
Meat Eaters Delight
If you love on bacon, the chocolate covered bacon is YOUR dish and their signature dish.
Michael’s Sandwich
Turkey Club, with bacon, lettuce, tomato and
those captivating Garlic Fries (use this as your treat day and indulge in them!)
Write On The Walls
Me and Talia (love her!) Want to know about the food, ask her. Want to know about the brand, ask her more!
I so loved this, I wrote my website on the wall and had fun ‘being a kid’. They give you markers and you create the wall art, don’t be shy.
This experience is one I would repeat over and over. If the locals go, you know its good and the food is amazing. Simple, delicious and off the strip! Totally a no-brainer IMO! You just want to indulge in this experience and I so WISH PITTSBURGH had this restaurant I would be there every week. #VegasBaby ~ DANA
That’s a good rule of thumb: go where the locals go. Now I really want some of those Garlic Fries!!
This is a lovely place with delicious food and great atmosphere therefore I like to come here again and again.
Yeah you’re right, if the locals go then you know it’s got to be good! That chocolate bacon sounds intriguing. I really have to try it!
Squeeze in looks like a fun place to have lunch. I love that they allow you guys to write on the walls. The drinks look refreshing. I definitely want to visit one day.
That looks like a really nice place to eat, the food looks so delicious, especially the fries. Writing on the wall looks like so much fun.
It was fun. Vegas has a lot of great attractions and then there is the food.
This looks like a great place and I really love the name ‘squeeze in’ the walls where you can write a message on is such a lovely idea, I bet you could spend so much time reading what other people wrote.
There’s no doubt that after a day of touring, this is definitely the best place to go. I just love how there’s so much good food to choose from and the place is pleasant on the eyes as well! What an experience!
I’ve been planning to go to the Hoover Dam for a while now. Now I know where to eat if time permits. The food looks very delicious!
I do not know nor see any dam here but the food is making me hungry. I would love to be one of these.
Mmm, food on the pictures looks so delicious! I like the idea of writing on the walls. It is very original. If I have a chance to go to Vegas in the near future, I will definitely check this place out.
The looks so mouth-watering on the pictures you posted. I love the concept of the resto where they let you write on the walls.:) We’re definitely visiting Hoover Dam with the family soon.
Yeah,the suggestion was awesome.the places after Hoover dam to visit was also awesome.One will be pleased to eat the fabulous food from there.
It is good that Vegas has something more to offer when it comes to food. It looks like a breath of fresh air!Glad to see Vegan options!
This really looks like it was a lot of fun. I agree with you, I guess these tour visits are very limited (although they might be convenient when you are somewhere you don’t know the language, for example). And I was really tempted by this garlic fries, OMG. Very nice tip of a place that seems just great!
I love the concept of their restaurant – alien stuff. It’s cute and creative. I bet their food tastes out of this world. *pun intended* I would like to try it!
I love the ambience of the place and they food that they serve looks fun, too! Would love to squeeze in here soon 🙂
The food looks delish and the decorations are very unique. I like this place
Those are really looking delicious. I haven’t gone to Las Vegas and now you’ve actually put on my mind that I should put it on my bucket list.
Seem like a really great place to take a break, the drinks look super nice, the food is ok not what I would go for though, I hope they have a variety of food. You know how to give details no one can get lost if they happen to be in the area.
This looks like the perfect place to stop for lunch if you want large plates of comfort food. I could eat right now those garlic fries! And those sandwiches, they looks so yummy and big!
I passed by Hoover Dam on the way to Grand Canyon West Rim last winter. I would have love to try out the lovely fries and the signature bacon, look like dinosaurs.
This looks like such a fun place to stop for lunch! I drive by this way often on my way toVegas so I’ll definitely check it out!
Wow, what a wonderful and delicious post and I am on a diet! Would love try this food, once my diet is over.
Oh yum I love the look of the food here, the turkey club looks so good. I’ve never been to America but I’d like to go to Vegas one day, I’d like to see more than just the strip though so I will bare venturing out into the neighbourhoods!
This looks like a fab and fun place to eat outside of Hoover Dam. Love the decor as it is relaxed and the food looks outrageously yummy – chocolate covered bacon – is that even legal? ? Also, I am a sucker for garlic fries!! They really know how to do it at Squueze In! ? Xo, Evelyn, PathofPresence.com ?
ohhhhh my gosh those Garlic Fries look amazing!! Since I have family every where, we meet in Vegas every year. We always skip the hoover dam because the kiddos were babies and wouldn’t really appreciate it (I’ve been to the Hoover Dam like twice). I think now that they’re older this year we’ll have to definitely check out the Dam & stop by Squeeze In! The garlic fries is all I need! Thanks for sharing, we love trying out new places!
It looks like so much fun! I admit that I had to look “Hoover Dam” up on google, lol, but it looks you had a great lunch there.
