Relax with Foot Reflexology or a Full Body Massage
After food, what Chinatown Vegas is best known for are its massage spas. Many of the masseuses have been trained in China. While some places seem shady, most are legit. Our Chinatown has over 40+ foot reflexology and full body massage spas.
Rates start as low as $30 for one hour of foot reflexology. This is a full-body chair massage, clothes on with an emphasis on the feet. There are several other massage spas you can explore
Karaoke
Want some steamed snow crab, pork belly, or kimchi fried rice while you Karaoke at 2 am? We understand, who doesn’t? Chinatown Vegas has your back. With over a dozen Karaoke ( or KTV as the Chinese call it) in Chinatown, there are no shortages of cool spots to get your Celine Dion or Wang Leehom on.
There are Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Filipino Karaoke places to choose from. Our favorite? J Karaoke. A hip, clean place with great Asian food, soju, bottle prices, and service. Open from 6 pm to 5 am 7 days a week. Stop by the Golden Tiki for some delish Dole Whip before or after, they’re open 24/7 and don’t even have a lock on the door!

With over 150+ restaurants, including world-class caliber Chengdu Taste, Yun Nan Garden, Raku, Yui, Chubby Cattle, Lamoon, and non-Asian eateries such as Sparrow & Wolf, and Partage. Watch Xiao Long Bao as it’s made by hand from scratch at ShangHai Taste, then walk to an all-you-can-eat hot pot or a revolving sushi restaurant, culinary wise, Las Vegas Chinatown is second to none.
Since its beginning, Spring Mountain Rd has been bustling. Local industry folks, as well as celebrity and master chefs, have been dining there for years. Then, the late Anthony Bourdain let the secret out when he featured our Chinatown on CNN’s hit TV series “Parts Unknown”.
Uber culinary expert and celebrity TV host Andrew Zimmern loves Chinatown Vegas too. During one of his frequent visits, he said if you think that only the strip is the hedonistic paradise, it’s no longer all that Vegas has to offer. “Go check out Spring Mountain Road and its surrounding neighborhood and tell me differently. I dare you”. he stated confidently.
