Mott 32

Mott 32 brings Hong Kong's most celebrated modern-Cantonese brand to the Palazzo casino floor — an industrial-chic room (the design itself won international awards) serving regional Chinese from Canton, Shanghai, and Beijing, crowned by the dish people fly for: the 42-day apple-wood-roasted Peking duck.

The duck ($128-138, the 'Mott 32 Cut') carries a non-negotiable rule — it must be pre-ordered at least 48 hours ahead, because the apple-wood process takes two days; walk-ins cannot get it. Around it: house dim sum, Iberico pork char siu, and wagyu dishes at a $$$-leaning register (roughly $100 a head before alcohol). The weekend Brunch 32 Limitless — endless dim sum around $68 — is the value discovery, Saturday-Sunday 10:30-2:30.

Honest notes: it's loud and scene-forward at peak, the casino-floor entrance carries smoke at the threshold, and portion-versus-price grumbles recur in reviews. But between Desert Companion's Strip Restaurant of the Year hardware and that duck, it holds the modern-Cantonese crown on the Boulevard. Dinner nightly 5-10.
