Dig Into Deviled Eggs at These Las Vegas Restaurants

The term “deviled” refers to a food that is made spicy by adding in hot or zesty spices, but in Las Vegas it might as well refer to something that’s sinfully indulgent. As is the case with most menu items in Las Vegas, restaurants across the city are finding decadent ways to prepare deviled eggs.

Diners may still find the classic preparation, which combines the yolk of a boiled egg with mayonnaise, mustard, and optional spices, but some versions add creative ingredients such as caviar and in one case, an entire cocktail on the side. Here, a look at five restaurants that serve deviled eggs in Las Vegas.
