Read Reviews4601 Spring Mountain Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89102 (map)
"In my opinion, Joyful House is one of the best Chinese restaurants in town. This joint is open until 2 a.m. and the food is delicious. I love to start with a House Soup, which is a fantastic chicken broth with plenty of garnishes. Philip, one of the most hospitable Maitre D?s in town, will always remember your name and bring great energy into the room."

I love the authentic Chinese roasted meats and hot pots. This is usually the first place I go and eat upon arriving in New York, especially since it is open late."

"One of my old colleagues from Lespinasse owns this restaurant. This is one of the top 10 fine dining restaurants in the U.S.A., as far as I am concerned. You must stay the night at the hotel, as well, and take some of the wine tours in Sonoma. The best dining experience I had in some years was here."
