Brenden & Bidhi's

$150 Dinner Guide

I read every menu on the Sapphire Reserve list in NYC and Las Vegas. Found the places where Bidhi gets real vegetarian entrées — not a sad salad — and Brenden eats whatever looks best. Tax, tip, credit: all crunched.

The Verdict

Go to Gjelina.

In New York? Gjelina. Bidhi gets a menu where the vegetables are the star. You get wagyu, duck, or pork chop. Neither of you compromises. $0 out of pocket.

In Vegas? La Strega. Five veg pastas for Bidhi, wagyu or pork parm for you. James Beard chef. $126 total.

Want the best story? Una Pizza Napoletana. Best pizza on Earth. Every pie is veg so you both just share. Thu–Sat only.

Want the most fun? Sappe. Bidhi gets her own dedicated vegan Thai section. You get grilled pork and duck laab. $119 total.

Already loved? Casa Mono. You two had a great time before. Still works—Michelin tapas, $110, plenty for both.
