Three happy hours this week, all doing something worth talking about right now. New menus, a beloved local coming back stronger than before, and a late-night option after the show that makes the Strip feel like your neighborhood. Fresh news, real updates, and one of them you are literally hearing about here first. That is what we are here for.
And if unlimited craft beer samples and live 90s music sounds like your idea of a great Saturday afternoon, our friends at Pub 365 at Tuscany Suites are hosting the 9th Annual Silver State Brewfest on July 11. More on that below.
🍝 D’Agostino’s Trattoria Happy Hour | Spring Valley
⏰ Tue–Sun 4–6 PM
D’Agostino’s is the kind of neighborhood Italian that earns regulars and keeps them. Chef Dan just dropped a new personal pizza, and Nicole’s summer cocktail menu just landed, which means the $10 happy hour menu you are looking at right now is so fresh you are reading about it here first. This is what happens when a kitchen never stops tinkering: fine-dining roots, genuine creative instincts, an upscale vibe and a happy hour that earns every visit.
The Italian Nachos are the unexpected standout. Crispy, layered, and not something you’ll find on many Italian happy hour menus in Las Vegas. Pair them with a Limoncello Drop, and you have a combination that sounds like it shouldn’t work but absolutely does. Locals have known about this place for a while. Now you do, too.
Order this: Italian Nachos + Limoncello Drop. Then ask about Chef Dan’s new pizza. It just landed, it’s as Grand as expected and definitely worth knowing about.

🦪 Hearthstone Kitchen & Cellar | Red Rock Resort
⏰ Mon–Thu 4–6 PM
The backstory here matters to anyone who lives west of the Strip. Hearthstone opened at Red Rock Resort and became a genuine local institution — the kind of restaurant that felt like a neighborhood place even though it was inside a casino. After almost a decade, it closed in 2023 to make way for something new. The replacement did not take. Red Rock conducted focus groups, and the message was clear: guests had been missing Hearthstone. So they brought it back.
Executive Chef Jason Janson said the response upon reopening was unlike anything in his 22 years in the business — packed from day one, with a built-in following already waiting at the door. The menu respects what people loved about the original while giving the kitchen room to improve on it.
The happy hour is exactly what it should be: oysters, wood-fired pizza, and drinks all at $12 or under for food. $1 Oyster Wednesdays starting at 4 PM is the weekly special that will make this a standing appointment. $7 Martini Mondays layer on top of the same window. Upscale, accessible, and back where it belongs.
Order this: Show up Wednesday at 4 PM. Order oysters. Order the apple and quinoa salad. Order a drink at $9. That is the Hearthstone happy hour in one move.

🌮 Hussong’s Cantina | Mandalay Bay
⏰ Late Night Happy Hour: 9 PM–Close
Here is the context that makes this happy hour worth knowing: Hussong’s Cantina was established in Ensenada, Baja California, in 1892 and is credited as the place where the margarita was invented in October 1941 — bartender Don Carlos Orozco mixed equal parts tequila, damiana, and lime over ice in a salt-rimmed glass for Margarita Henkel, daughter of the German Ambassador to Mexico. The story is on record with the Ensenada Historical Society. The original location is still standing, still family-owned, and still serving.
The Mandalay Place location has been a locals’ favorite since it opened — a multiple-time Best of Las Vegas winner for Best Enchiladas and for Best Mexican Restaurant, as recognized by the Las Vegas Review-Journal. The late-night happy hour is new: after the show at House of Blues, walk down a few steps and order a $10 margarita with $7 street tacos, nachos, elote, or ceviche. Discounted cocktails, beer, and micheladas until close.
Ordering a margarita at the bar that invented the margarita, after a show, late at night, on the Strip… that’s Vegas!
