Vegas Recommendations
 

Headed to Vegas in a week with the wife to celecrate her putting up with me for 5 years. Have been out there a bunch of times but only with the guys so I really have no idea what to do.

Looking for a good steakhouse $150 - $300 range for the meal

A couple of decent places to eat for lunch on the strip that are not super expensive. Maybe $25 - $40 for the meal.

A really good buffet that is likely to have Prime Rib, Crab legs and maybe something like lamb or something different.

Other recommendations for dinners. Anywhere between $50 to $150 for both of us. Would like a good Itlanian joint but none of the fancy new age Italian, just good old fashioned food.

Staying at Four Seaons at Mandalay Bay so anything on the strip would be great.

Also looking for a decent place to get on Fremont for the night we are going down there.

Any good dive bars, one trendy club and theme bars would be cool to know about. I read about a few online but figured someone here could recommend a few. Also looking for a good happy hour or two as we will be there during the week.

Is the Treasure Island Show and Mirage volcano worth the time to see?

Any other recommendations would be great.

Thanks. OC

If you want a nice steak hit up Mesa Grill in Ceasars Palace. It's owned by Bobby Flay himself, food is amazing. I had the New Mexico pork tenderloin and my g/f had a new york strip with Tiger Shrimp as the appy. You'll never taste anything like it. Our bill was around $120 for the two of us.

The Rio for your buffet hands down:

For lunch and drinks, hit up Diablo's inside the Monte Carlo. Awesome food and drinks, try the nachos they're like $15-20 but it'll feed 4. Very popular there.


I'd also go see the water show at the Bellagio. That should be a must. I go to Veags once a year since we only live 3 1/2 hours away. Pretty familiar with everything, we go every year for the Super Bowl.

How long are you staying in Vegas?

Lawry's - Best Prime Rib EVAH!

He's not lying.

Just do the same thing with her that you do with the guys.

My favorite spot was Bill's Gamblin Hall. I don't really like the fancier casinos as much. Too flashy. Bill's is the dive bar version of a Vegas casino. I am probably in the minority, though.

Six days five nights.

We will check that out. Did this used to be called somehthing else?

Thanks for the recs.

We already have a strip played to the Rhino but outside of that she doesn't want to gamble all night.

Ever been to the Ice Bar at Mandalay Minus 5? Looks like a differnt type of place. Def not something we have here in Omaha.

If you can spare a day to go driving, there are some awesome sights to see around Vegas. My fiancee and I went last year, and the day we rented a car and drove through the Valley of Fire was the highlight of the trip.

Barbary Coast.

But Harrah's owns it now. Not as good as it used to be, but still a fun little casino.

Not sure. It's by the flamingo and across from Caesar's.
