I've been before for bachelor parties, so I need couples stuff to do. She's not a gambler.

I have procured:
Reservations at Prime for fountain show.
Tickets to Absynthe


Looking for good Japanese steakhouse, a seafood joint, and some lunch Recs.

Also, other than people watch and walk the casinos any must dos?

HighRoller, aquarium at Mandalay, two girls at once?

Btw, I checked the Vegas thread and it's quite outdated it seems.

Wife and I just got back from Vegas. Went for our 10th Anniversary and to see George on Friday night. We did Prime as well one evening for the Bellagio fountain show..get the peppercorn crusted strip, was best steak I've ever had. We also had dinner at a place called Chica in The Pellazzo/Venetian..small plates and shareables and good drinks. Next door is Yardbirds..southern comfort food; had lunch there one day.

We did the aquarium at Mandalay Bay, Titanic museum at Luxor (very cool) and the roller coaster at NYNY. MGM has a package you can pick from for $57. It filled an afternoon for us.

Kayaked Lake Mead one morning with Desert Adventures in Boulder City. Was suppose to do a tour of Black Canyon but with some rain last week they closed the park due to flash floods. If you make it to Boulder City, check out Southwest Diner for lunch.

New show we liked was BAZ, Star Crossed Lovers.

A few out of the way places to consider:

Peppermill Fireside Lounge for brunch. Its at the end of the strip past TI.
Frankie's Tiki Room - For drinks. Its like a Tarantino set its so authentic. You have to Uber it there and back but its only like $8.00-$10.00 each way.
Andiamo Steakhouse at the D Hotel downtown. Fun place and great food.
Carnaval Court right outside of Harrah's on the strip. Great free live music and entertaining bartenders.

There's a Fat Tuesday's in Caesar's Palace. They have this special where you can get an extra shot of 151 for a dollar. Couple a few of those with a 100oz 190 octane for like 25 bucks and you'll be hard pressed to find that kind of value anywhere else.

Yah do that. 100oz of sugary alcohol always ends well.

I took the wife to Britney, and I am not scared to say it was awesome. I heard the J-lo show is good. Get her a Sichuan Flower margarita at the Chandalier bar.

That's awesome David. How did you score 6th Row? I bought day went on sale and got 2nd deck. It was an awesome show. I love his old stuff and for him to play about 15-18 of his older tracks made it worth it.

We had section 206 Row B. They were perfect. Nobu is also a great meal.

Bought them on Vivid Seats. Lesson learned from talking with a friend after I bhad already ought them was to check Craigslist. I saw several on there for a lot cheaper than what I paid.

ABSINTHE was awesome, albeit quite vulgar. As in, the most vulgar show I have ever heard and I pursue that type of thing for fun. Overall super fun and would do it again!

If you guys are foodies or enjoy eating until you are in so much pain you might try to throw up for relief, the try the Lip Smacking Foodie Tour. They'll take you to 4-5 great restaurants, you'll eat some good sh/t and it will kill 3+ hours.
