Pei Wei Asian Diner

1 · C19 ★ 1 $$$$

By Gate C19 in Terminal 1, this is your Asian option

Pei Wei Asian Diner sits in Terminal 1’s Concourse C by gate C19, and it’s one of the few Asian fast-casual spots anyone actually names in LAS food guides. You order at the counter, they call your name, and you’re eating in about 10–15 minutes if it’s not slammed. It’s inside security for the C-gates, so this only makes sense if you’re flying out of Terminal 1, not Terminal 3.

Figure on $$ pricing: mains usually land in the low-to-mid teens, and a drink can push the total close to $20. Expect the usual Pei Wei hits like orange chicken, pad thai, and teriyaki rice bowls built around chicken, steak, or tofu. Portions run bigger than grab-and-go sandwiches from nearby spots, so it can carry you through a long LAS–east coast leg.

Hours aren’t clearly posted online, but in Terminal 1 Concourse C it typically tracks flight banks, opening for morning departures and staying open into the evening rush; late-night C-gate flights after 10 p.m. can find it closed. The Toro e la Capra LAS food guide even calls Pei Wei at C19 one of the “best restaurants at Harry Reid,” which says more about the terminal than about fine dining ambitions.

The overall rating trends low at around 1 star, which usually flags inconsistent food quality and airport-level service, even if specific complaints don’t show up in depth. If you go, stick to simple builds you already know from street‑side Pei Wei locations: classic orange chicken, basic fried rice, or a straightforward teriyaki bowl rather than anything overly sauced or customized.

Practical tip: if your flight leaves from another C‑gate, check your boarding pass, then eat here first and walk over; the C19 location is central enough that you’re usually within a 5–8 minute walk of most other C‑gates.
