A Las Vegas Brewery & Seafood Bar: The Story Behind Cin Cin

Why a Brewhouse & Seafood Bar in Las Vegas?

Las Vegas is full of:

  • Massive casinos
  • Big-name restaurants
  • Endless all-you-can-everything

We love the energy of the city, but we wanted something different: a place that feels like a neighborhood brewhouse, with a menu centered around fresh, thoughtful seafood rather than another steak-and-potatoes setup.

Beer and seafood might not be the first pairing people think of, but once you try it, it’s hard to go back.

Our Approach to Beer

At Cin Cin, beer isn’t an afterthought; it’s the backbone of the bar.

We focus on:

  • Approachable styles that work well with food – think lagers, pale ales, balanced IPAs, and maltier options.
  • Rotating selections so there’s always something new to try alongside your favorite go-tos.
  • Pairing potential – we choose beers that play nicely with everything from raw oysters to fried and grilled dishes.

Whether you’re a casual beer drinker or someone who loves talking about hops and malt, we aim to keep our tap list interesting and welcoming.

Our Approach to Food

Seafood is where our kitchen shines.

We’re inspired by:

  • The freshness and brightness of raw and chilled seafood dishes
  • The comfort of warm, cooked seafood plates
  • The idea that food should be shared, talked about, and remembered

You’ll see that in:

  • Raw bar selections – oysters and other chilled offerings (when available)
  • Crudo-style or bright seafood dishes – perfect for pairing with lighter beers
  • Cooked plates and shareables – ideal for groups and longer meals

We want you to feel just as excited about the food as you are about what’s in your glass.

The Cin Cin Experience

When you walk in, our goal is to make you feel like you’ve found:

  • A local’s spot, even if you’re from out of town
  • A place where you can come for a quick beer and a snack, or a full dinner
  • A comfortable, unpretentious atmosphere where the focus is on what’s in front of you – food, drink, and company

We’re close enough to downtown Las Vegas and the Arts District that you can build an entire night around us and nearby bars, breweries, and galleries.

How to Make the Most of Your Visit

A few ideas:

  • First-timers
    Start with oysters or a chilled seafood dish and a lighter beer, then move into a main and a more expressive style.
  • Date night
    Share a spread of plates, from raw bar to mains, and explore a couple of beers together.
  • Group hang
    Order a mix of shareable dishes for the table and let everyone choose their own beer adventure.

Don’t be shy about asking for recommendations – pairing food and beer is one of our favorite parts of the job.

From Us to You: “Cin Cin”

Our name, Cin Cin, is a toast – a way of saying “cheers” among friends.

That’s the spirit we want in the room every night: friends clinking glasses, trying something new, and enjoying a small pocket of Las Vegas that feels like its own little world.

Whether you’re here for a quick drink, a full seafood dinner, or a stop on your downtown or Arts District crawl, we’re glad you found us.
