Can you guys recommend some buffets and their prices?

EXV603 03-30-2011 05:41 PM

Bellagio buffet is really good. Go right when the lunch buffet is about to end... around 4 I think because that is when they start serving the dinner items. This way you pay the lunch price instead of the dinner price and save around $10 or more per person I believe.

the outlet stores are pretty lame... Seattle premium outlet is better( gives you an idea)..

read this thread and there is a lot of info on clubs... i took my time and studied this thread before i went to vegas and it helped a lot..

*20 dollar trick worked for me too at the hotel...i went in Oct/2009 and stayed at the Mirage


Seriously, this thread is legend.

I read couple of site before i went to vegas but RS has the most useful info ever.


IIRC there is a "dollar/convient type of store" near Venetian by the overpass sells a lot of drinks, chips, instant noodles....... which helped a lot saving a few bucks..

thats if you tired of purchase over price chips/snacks at the local hotel gift shop and dont want to eat fine dining/buffet everyday and grossed out by Macdonald.

I'll be there May 11th to 16th!...
Are you serious about the Outlets? I was going to go there for a day, I heard it's WAY bigger than Seattle Premium... well doesn't really matter I suppose. I'll be hitting up the San Diego premium outlet which I heard got crazy deals!

The $20 trick?... man I've been too chicken shit to attempt it... I booked at Palazzo for my next trip, so what should I really do? What do I say? Should I just hand it to them together with my credit card?... or slide it along the countertop?... Am I suppose to pull it off as inconspicuously as possible so the other receptionists (or the tourists behind me) don't see it? What if I end up looking like a dumbass and the dude just pockets the cash and says nothing or am I suppose like wink and smile at him? What if he thinks I'm homo and wants to hookup that night? I half-assed tried to ask for an upgrade at Aria the last time I went and that didn't go so well, the lady at the desk told me it would be $80 per night extra... I had the $20 in my pocket but I didn't know when or how to give it to her, the few seconds felt like an hour and in the end I pussed out and I was like "umm no thanks"

Manic! 04-06-2011 06:15 PM

From another site I belong to.

Chatteau: Paris
They recently expanded the patio and it is amazing. It's a pretty big club and well worth it.

Vanity: Hard Rock
Vanity is a little small for a Vegas club, but it's pretty sweet and fairly new. Gonna be tons of hot chicks at Vanity. The Hard Rock in general is a cool place to hang out and mingle.

Playboy Club and Moon: Palms
You wont be dissapointed. They also have the Ghost bar that overlooks the entire city.

TAO: Venetian
Typical Vegas over-the-top super club. Half naked women in bathtubs full of rose petals and lots of stuff to look at. 2 floors and decent views.

The Bank: Bellagio
http://www.bellagio.com/nightlife/the-bank.aspx

LAX: Luxor
Not bad, but there's better. Probably the largest dance floor in Vegas.

Jet: Mirage
Great on Monday nights and the weekend. Multiple rooms.

Rehab: Hard Rock
Rehab is a huge pool party during the day.....it's a disfunctional madhouse but loaded with super hotties in bikinis.

Wet Republic: MGM
MGM's version of Rehab. More classy. Smaller and not as crazy as Rehab and the women are equally smokin hot.

Encore Beach: Encore
Same shit...different casino.

Strip clubs:
Sapphires - It may still be the largest strip club in the world. Best lap dances in town.
Spearmint Rhino - Local favorite with the best looking girls...usually.
Larry Flints Hustler - Newer club but far off the strip. The DJ does the whole night with a lap top and a Rane 68 :lol:
Treasures: Pretty sweet
Little Darlings: Full nude 18 year olds. No alcohol.
Deja Vu on Arville next to the Orleans casino: It's the old Seamless. Late night after hours early, early morning hangout.[/QUOTE]

When they ask for your driver's license and credit card, keep the 20 in between and ask if there are any complimentary upgrades available. You'll want to have things prepared beforehand tho...

Leaving for Vegas next Tuesday for what must be my 40th trip... rofl...

And what if they say no, does that mean I'm just out $20?

Nope.

Just tell them you want that broken up into 10's or something

i.e. "oh btw, could you break up that $20 that I had slipped in there into 2x $10s?"

Heard MGM Grand is the one casino that most people get turned down on because people get fired if they're caught.
