Eating cheap on the Las Vegas Strip doesn't have to mean chasing an expired special or calling one slice of pizza dinner. These are the cheap eats we'd actually send a friend to, from tacos and breakfast sandwiches to a sit-down pizza for two, with what to order once you're there.
Every main pick is on Las Vegas Boulevard or inside a Strip resort or shopping center, plus one off-Strip bonus at the end. Affordable here means about $10–$20 for a filling order, stretching to $25 when a side, a sit-down setting or the portion earns it. Prices are before tax, tip and drinks, and were checked in November 2026.

The best deal is usually the good place you can walk to, not the cheapest one across the Strip.

Cheap Eats and Casual Restaurants on the Strip
Quick, filling meals you can fit around everything else you came to do.
Earl of Sandwich
3667 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
Earl of Sandwich is the dependable fallback for the meals you didn't plan. Start with the Original 1762 (roast beef, cheddar and horseradish sauce), or go bigger with the Holiday Turkey, piled with stuffing, gravy and cranberry. Most hot sandwiches run about $11, so lunch can stay close to $15 even with a side. The Planet Hollywood location at 3667 S. Las Vegas Blvd. is open 24 hours, which makes it handy for early flights, late check-ins and the end of a long night.
In-N-Out Burger (LINQ Promenade)
3545 S Las Vegas Blvd Ste L24, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
A Double-Double and fries is still one of the cheapest satisfying meals on the Strip, at roughly $10–$15 with a drink. This is the original Strip location on the LINQ Promenade (3545 S. Las Vegas Blvd., Suite L24); the newer flagship at BLVD is next on the list, so go to whichever is on your way. Open until 1 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and 1:30 a.m. Friday and Saturday, with no drive-thru.
In-N-Out Burger (BLVD)
3747 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
The newer, much bigger In-N-Out sits on the third floor of BLVD, across from Park MGM and Aria (3747 S. Las Vegas Blvd., Suite 3-150). Same cheap Double-Double and fries, and the same hours: until 1 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and 1:30 a.m. Friday and Saturday. No drive-thru.
Tacos El Gordo
3041 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
This is the cheap meal that feels like a destination. Start with adobada, the spiced pork, then add carne asada, suadero or lengua on corn tortillas. The tacos are street-size, so plan on three or four for about $13–$18. Each meat has its own line, so check the stations before you pick one. It's at 3041 S. Las Vegas Blvd., across from Resorts World, and stays open until 2 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and 4 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.
Istanbul Mediterranean
3615 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
A döner wrap is a welcome break after a few days of fries and bread baskets. Get the beef-and-lamb or chicken döner in lavash for $17.55, which beats the $23.05 rice bowls on price. Falafel comes in the same wraps and sandwiches, and the meat is halal. It's in the Grand Bazaar Shops at Horseshoe (3615 S. Las Vegas Blvd., Suite 101) and open 10 a.m. to 5 a.m., the latest of any pick here. If you order online, choose this location, since there's a separate Istanbul on Fremont Street.
Hattie B's Hot Chicken
The Cosmopolitan of, Boulevard Tower, 3708 Las Vegas Blvd S Level 2, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
Hattie B's is the move when a sandwich won't cut it. Plates of bone-in chicken or tenders come with a side, and the pimento mac and cheese is the one we'd pick. Heat starts at Southern, with none at all, so order the level you'll actually enjoy. Budget $17–$23. You'll find it in Block 16 on Level 2 of the Cosmopolitan's Boulevard Tower (3708 S. Las Vegas Blvd.). It's counter service, so there's no reservation to worry about.
Howlin' Ray's
3355 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
If you're already at the Venetian, get The Sando: a fried chicken breast with slaw, pickles and comeback sauce on a butter bun, for $17. Fries are $6.50 extra. Heat starts at Country, with none, so you don't need to love spice to enjoy it. It's in Via Via on the Venetian's casino level (3355 S. Las Vegas Blvd.).
All'Antico Vinaio
Via Via Food Hall, The Venetian Resort, 3355 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
These sandwiches are big enough to stand in for a pricier sit-down lunch. They're built on schiacciata, the Tuscan flatbread, which holds up to a lot of filling. Our picks are La Favolosa ($21), with salame Toscano, pecorino cream, artichoke cream and spicy eggplant, and La Paradiso ($23), with mortadella, stracciatella and pistachio. The $19 Caprese is the vegetarian option. It's in Via Via at the Venetian, and before 11 a.m. the breakfast sandwiches are $14.
The Crack Shack
3770 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
The Crack Shack has its own entrance straight off the Strip at Park MGM (3770 S. Las Vegas Blvd.), so there's no hunting through the casino. The best value is the $17 Jidori Tender Combo, five tenders with fries. For a sandwich, the Coop Deville (fried chicken, slaw and lime mayo) and the spicier Firebird are $16.50 each, with fries $5 extra.
Secret Pizza
Boulevard Tower, 3708 Las Vegas Blvd S Level 3, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
Secret Pizza is cheap for the Cosmopolitan: $8 for a cheese slice, or about $16–$20 for two. Half the fun is finding it. Head to Level 3 and look for the record-lined hallway between The Corner Store and Jaleo. Older directions mention Blue Ribbon, which is now The Corner Store. Seating is limited, so it works best as a quick slice stop before or after something else.
Greenberg's Deli
New York New York Casino, 3790 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
Greenberg's is the south-Strip pick when you want a deli sandwich instead of another fried meal. It's part of the Village Street Eateries inside New York-New York (3790 S. Las Vegas Blvd.), and sandwiches come with a pickle for about $15–$20. The Italian Stallion is a good place to start. Save it for a day you're already down at this end of the Strip.

Cheap Breakfast on the Las Vegas Strip
One true budget plate and one worth paying a little more for.
La Salsa Cantina
3663 Las Vegas Blvd S Ste 380, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
La Salsa's weekday breakfast special is about as cheap as a sit-down plate gets on the Strip: two eggs, a breakfast meat, southwest potatoes and tortillas for around $7, served until noon. It's a quick fuel-up before a busy day, and weekend prices are higher, so ask for the special when you order. Toast and coffee cost extra, and the restaurant adds a 3% fee to the bill. It's inside the Miracle Mile Shops (3663 S. Las Vegas Blvd., Suite 380).
Eggslut
Boulevard Tower, 3708 Las Vegas Blvd S Level 2, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
Eggslut is the upgrade when you want breakfast to be the good part of the morning. Order the Fairfax (soft scrambled eggs, cheddar, caramelized onions, chives and sriracha mayo), or keep it simple with a bacon, egg and cheese. Sandwiches run about $12–$16 before sides and coffee. Lines can get long, so have a backup if you're on a schedule. It's on Level 2 of the Cosmopolitan (3708 S. Las Vegas Blvd.), open 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Thursday and until 3 p.m. Friday through Sunday.
Affordable Sit-Down Restaurants and Takeout on the Strip
For when the group wants a table, or dinner you can carry back to the room.
Grand Lux Cafe
3355 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
Grand Lux is the answer when someone in the group wants to sit down for a real meal. The Venetian location is open 24 hours, on the casino floor near the Grand Canal escalator (3355 S. Las Vegas Blvd.), and the menu is huge. The DeLux Drive In Burger ($20.95) comes with fries or a salad, and from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. selected pasta lunches come with a small salad for $21.95. Plan on about $20–$25 per main before tax and tip; appetizers, cocktails and dessert add up fast.
Grimaldi's Pizzeria
3327 S Las Vegas Blvd Suite 2710, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
A whole pie is the better deal when there are two of you. Grimaldi's 18-inch traditional pizza is $27, or $13.50 each split two ways, and it's a relaxed sit-down meal for couples and families who don't want steakhouse prices. Toppings and specialty pies cost more. It's on Level 2 of the Grand Canal Shoppes' Luxury Wing, on the Palazzo side (3327 S. Las Vegas Blvd., Suite 2710), separate from the Via Via food hall.
La La Noodle
3770 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
La La Noodle's deal is a $19.88 mobile-order takeout special: the day's entrée, two spring rolls and a fountain soda. The entrée rotates, with Mongolian beef and rice on Monday, drunken beef noodles on Wednesday and chicken lo mein on Saturday. Order ahead and pick it up, since the deal doesn't apply if you sit down. It's inside Park MGM (3770 S. Las Vegas Blvd.), and dinner service starts at 4:30 p.m.
Just Off the Strip: Village Pub & Cafe at Ellis Island
Village Pub & Cafe at Ellis Island
4178 Koval Ln, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
Ellis Island's Village Pub & Cafe sits a block east of the Strip on Koval Lane and is open 24 hours. The regular menu is the draw: a $14.99 burger with steak fries, a $9.99 grilled cheese with fries or a $15.99 patty melt. It's worth it when you're already on this side of the center Strip. We wouldn't pay for a round-trip ride just to save a few dollars on lunch.
A Quick Tip for Eating Cheap on the Strip
Check what comes with the main. Some prices here include a side (Hattie B's plates, the Crack Shack combo, Grand Lux's burger) and some don't (Howlin' Ray's fries). Save a breakfast, a lunch and a late-night option near your hotel, and you'll rarely need to cross the Strip to eat well for less.
