Planning your meal around showtime

Because Mat Franco Theater is inside a busy resort, it helps to decide in advance whether you will eat inside the LINQ complex or at a neighboring Strip property. The closest options, such as Lobby Bar, Tag Sports Bar, Guy Fieri's Vegas Kitchen & Bar, and Starbucks at 3545 South Las Vegas Boulevard, keep your walking distance short if you prefer to head straight to the theater afterward. If you choose restaurants slightly farther away, like Sushi Roku, Planet Hollywood Restaurant, Havana 1957, or True Food Kitchen, factor in extra time to walk back through casino floors and the LINQ Promenade. For any sit-down restaurant, check current hours, wait times, and whether reservations are available directly with the venue so your meal does not overlap with your ticketed show time.
