Go to the N9NES Steakhouse in the Palms - Great steak and great scene. Always my first stop in Vegas.
Where are you staying? |

Steakhouse: Craftsteak at MGM. Everything else is a step below. Bring money.
Club/Bar: Mix at Mandalay. I'm jealous..... |

Chimp - I'm staying at Mandalay (The Hotel) in 30 days. Mix is new right? What is the scene like - dance club or ultralounge?

Vastly overrated and the scene wasnt that great. The MGM is basically dead and as far as Vegas casinos go, is mediocre. Go to the Palms steakhouse or even to to Fix at the Bellagio. Fix is right next to Light - scenery is incredible and the food is just north of excellent. And as far as "bring money," yes, that's generally a good idea at a Vegas restaurant. All the good ones are expensive. |

[/ QUOTE ] Sorry, but anyone who would compare the steak (note the singular) at FIX with the prime, dry-aged for 30+days bone-in steaks at CRaftsteak is uninformed to say the least. MGM sucks....agreed. Craftsteak's interior is nothing unique....agreed. But they have the highest quality beef in Vegas. And it's not close. ps, FIX is a cool place. I agree. But its steak is nothing interesting. |

The food at Craftsteak was good, as you said. Don't get me wrong. I just think 20-something guys are looking for an experience. Just my opinion. |
