Henderson Restaurants

Nevada's mining history means you're likely to find sourdough biscuits, sourdough bread, and Cornish pasties in many of Henderson's quaint little restaurants; these are the same foods that miners ate when they came to the state and were hard-strapped for food. Cuisine in Henderson is also heavily influenced by the local Shoshone people, who have cooked using local game, root vegetables, and nuts and berries for generations. Just a little farther north, expect to eat "Basque style," where you'll be seated side by side with your fellow diners. Basque-style dining offers plenty of options for the adventurous eater, including pig's feet. And, while you're in town, be sure to try spaghetti sauce with lemon in it - it's a Nevada specialty.
