Burgers are typically known for being an affordable food, but today, we are talking about the most expensive burgers in Las Vegas. These burgers are over the top!
$180 Gold Burger
- Summary: Priced at $180 for a gold-covered bun and 10 oz burger
- Location: Nusr-Et (Salt Bae)
- Features: Gold-covered bun
Remember the viral sensation Salt Bae, who sprinkled salt with his own flair?! Well, he, actually named Chef Nusret Gokce, has a restaurant called Nusr-Et in Las Vegas. And on the menu? A $180 burger.
Technically, this burger is actually $30 on the “regular” menu, but Nusr-Et has a luxury menu, where the food comes covered in gold leaf for an opulent experience.
The Nusr-Et Wagyu Burger is made in-house, from grinding the meat to baking the bun. It starts with a ten-ounce Wagyu patty, which gets layered with caramelized onions, beef bacon, yellow cheddar cheese, and a seasoned seed bun. Then, if you order the $180 version, the bun is covered in gold leaf. Don’t worry, you can’t taste the gold, it is just for fun! It also comes with some perfectly crispy fries on the side.
Other items on the Golden Menu include Golden Baklava and Golden Asado.

$135 Whale Burger

- Summary: $135 Whale Burger, featuring wagyu beef, gold dust, and fried lobster.

The $135 Whale Burger is a secret menu item at Slater’s 50/50, a restaurant known for their patties being 50% beef and 50% bacon. If you look at the regular menu online or in the restaurant, it mentions The Whale Burger, but there’s a caveat.
The description states: “High rollers dream of becoming Whales. If you’re lucky enough to know where to look, you might get a shot at ordering the Whale Burger.” This means you can not order this burger without a bit of a scavenger hunt. Don’t worry, we’re here to pass along the secret.
SPOILER ALERT! There is a picture of a whale on the wall in the restaurant, which has a QR code hidden inside. To order this burger, you must scan the QR code using your phone.
So what makes this burger $135? Well, it comes with some rather premium ingredients. It starts with a pound of Australian Wagyu beef, then on top, you’ll find imported truffle cheese you can’t find anywhere else in the U.S., 3 slices of “Billionaire’s Bacon,” which is gold-dusted, and fried lobster. Roasted garlic aioli, baby arugula, and housemade bacon jam, plus a gold-dusted brioche bun, round out this monster, luxurious burger.
As if it wasn’t stacking up to the price already, the burger comes with a bottle of premium champagne because how can you have lobster, Wagyu, and truffle cheese without a bit of bubbly?!
