Unique Experience - Edit
Service was great, felt like a special occasion. Food was good, was a thought provoking experience. Made for good conversation, pitch black- truly. Could not see a thing. Not sure we would do it again but glad we did it once.

Incredible Experience - Edit
Bring your appetite. It's A LOT of food, and all delicious! Our carnivore friend remarked that it was officially his favorite restaurant he's ever been to. The entire experience is incredible and inspiring; not just the food, but the experience itself, and spending time with friends without all the cumbersome worries of physical appearances, just minds/true spirits, it felt oddly liberating. We also shared many laughs over the unique situations we encountered with our dishes. So much fun. The staff was also super friendly, sweet, and helpful. Just amazing.

My senses came alive - Edit
Sorry no pics!! 7 courses of whole food plant based dining eating with my hands never felt so good and naughty. We celebrated our 22nd anniversary here and was given a lovely gift at the end - a gesture! Our server gained our trust immediately and was so engaging and encouraging. It was great to see the menu at the end to see what we guessed right (or not). No I won’t spoil the surprises and tell you what they were. Love love love this place. The view (apparently) was so pretty. Hehehehhe

For the Experience! - Edit
Meat-eaters and vegan rejoice! In the dark, no one can tell what you're being served. It is an unforgettable sensory experience that engages every sense... except for sight. The food was excellent, no complaints! The price is still a bit steep, but if you're in Vegas looking for a new and unique experience, I would come here.

Never disappointed - Edit
I've been here several times and it's always delicious. The menu changes seasonally but one never had anything I didn't like. Service is fun and friendly and I totally recommend the wine pairings.

3rd time was just as amazing - Edit
My husband I travel from Ny to Las Vegas often. We make it a point to experience Black Out Dinning every chance we get. We just visited again last night and loved our 7 course meal! Always had amazing service and fun waitress/waiters too. Just do yourself a favor and go!

A fun experience - Edit
I convinced a couple of my coworkers to come try this place with me. It was very fun! The first course, a soup, was my favorite. It was fun trying to find the food and theorizing what we might be eating. The food was good, but I think you’re paying more for the experience. Not sure I would pay the same price to come here again. It’s definitely worth trying though if you have adventurous companions to join you.

So unique! - Edit
This was such a fun and unique experience! You literally eat a 7 course meal in pure darkness - not even able to see the outline of your hand in front of your face. The food was all very tasty and surprisingly hard to accurately guess - but I'm also notoriously bad at distinguishing flavors. They show you the menu at the end so you know what you ate, but ask that you don't take photos or share with anyone so you don't ruin the experience. The wait staff wears night vision goggles and are super helpful at guiding you through this difficult dining experience. About three or four of my courses were finger foods which was fun as I don't usually experience the texture and feel of my food. The darkness is meant to heighten other senses while eating which for me worked for touch but not necessarily taste. Overall this was a very enjoyable experience and worth the roughly $90 per person. You could also add a ~$50 wine pairing which I strongly considered, but I'm ultimately glad I skipped it as it would have made it much more difficult! It would definitely be doable though.

After the meal you can view the menu and see if your guesses were right. They ask you not to take photos of the menu or tell others so you don’t ruin their experience.
A long time vegan should have no problem identifying most of the dishes.
It was expensive but a worth it for the memory.
Pros: Experience you will never forget, Funny and friendly servers
Cons: Expensive

Pricey and very salty - Edit
It was a fun experience. We paid $89 per person but we didn't finish most of the food. Everyone at the table (5 of us) complained about how salty the food was. 1st course a carrot ginger soup was very salty, the 3rd course a finger food with a dip sauce was also super salty, we didn't even touch the dip sauce. I wish the owner would tone down on the salt so we can actually enjoy our food.

A must in Vegas! - Edit
This was such a fun experience! I didn’t think we’d ever get a chance to try a plant-based dining in the dark experience and Blackout did not disappoint! Seven courses of mystery meals was so fun for trying to guess different flavors and what we were having. The staff was kind and knowledgeable and it made for a really unique dining experience! Highly highly recommend checking this place out!

Very Interesting Experience - Edit
The waitstaff are very personable and make the experience enjoyable. It is uncomfortable dark and takes a few minutes before you can relax and enjoy it. If you’ve never done a multi course vegan mean then you will love this. If you have, then focus on the being in the dark aspect as the food is average. It’s very fun to share food guesses with your date. It’s a very fun experience but don’t come for the food come for the experience.

Fantastic! - Edit
Blackout Dining in the Dark was a fantastic experience! Dining in complete darkness and enjoying a full vegan menu is something everyone should try. It might be a bit intimidating at first, but the staff is incredibly kind and explains everything thoroughly, helping you every step of the way.

The food is not only delicious but heightened by the sensory adventure. What made it even better was the fantastic wine pairing, which complemented the dishes perfectly.

Such a great experience!
Read moreThe staff is very friendly, our waitress was amazing!
The food was very tasty, we loved every of the 7 courses, simply delicious. And i was so funny to try to figure out what we where eating.
My father has allergies. He was taken into consideration, he even got a vest so that the waitress knew that he got other courses than we did.
When you are leaving they show you the menu with the pictures.
I can only highly recommend this unique experience!!! Absolutely worth the price!
Pros: Full vegan, Delicious, Unique experience

A vegan dining experience not to be missed while in Vegas - Edit
We stuffed ourselves on the seven course vegan meal served in total darkness at blackout. While they do reveal the menu at the end when you're checking out, I'm not authorized to tell you what they served, but I can assure you it's all vegan! Creative and fun and truly pitch black dark dining ... The food was mostly excellent and we had a good time guessing what we were eating. Don't miss the experience that is blackout.
