We get it: There are times when you don’t want to miss a moment of the action in the auction arena and, before you know it, the last car of the night has crossed the block. Now it’s late, and you’re hungry. Fortunately, there are some fantastic restaurants just a short drive from the auction site at WestWorld that cater to the late-night crowd. Here are just a few of our favorites.
Dominick’s Steakhouse – A classic American steakhouse and more. Their in-house master butcher cuts an amazing selection of steaks daily for dinner service, and the menu also includes interesting and unique side dishes and appetizers (like corn crème brulee and Wagyu beef tartare), as well as fresh shellfish and seafood (including Chilean sea bass).
