    I am in Vegas once a year and the top of the world is amazing, I dont eat like that a lot but when I am in Vegas thats the time to do it. Bally's has a buffet like $75 but all you can eat lobster, crab legs, steak, and anything else you could want.

    I'm cheap as well, but spending a couple hundred on an epic dining experience once every couple of years seems worthwhile to me, especially when I would spend the same amount of money on stupid shit like dinner for two and enough liquor to get a party crunk for an evening.

    BTW, Bobby Flay's restruant in LV is my one stop.
    Thats the one thing that I did respect about emerill's place. The waitstaff was epic. They brought out new silverware for each dish, new napkins, etc. Cleared plates as soon as we were finished, we practically had a guy waiting around next to our table just out of earshot to make sure that we had anything we needed.

    If you ever end up in Vegas, put it on all five spots on your list.

    Similar sentiments to most of the restaurants in MGM grand. Its just very yummy all over in there.

    MGM grand is a nice blend of appropriateness and class for family and youngsters.

    The Luxor is ok and has good food plus thing for kids that age to do and forget walking take the mono-rail. For the money stay at the Luxor and take your wife out for a very nice Dinner at the Top of the World at the Stratophere get the dinner for 2 with the tour of wines if she like wine about $300 for the dinner but no better way to get her in good with her than a sun set over the strip with dinner.
    P.S. make a dinner res.now for the night you want.

    I just went to the Luxor for three nights in mid November. It was very different inside from when I went in 2005. The halls/walkways upstairs are showing SOME age, but the rooms were immaculate and the bathrooms are actually pretty nice quality and LARGE too.

    The main floor has a bunch of new places to drink and stuff. The club LAX in there is pretty badass... It even ranks on some world charts so I hear. I went there 3 nights in a row and danced like a drunken white boy. Fun as hell. I would recommend it. The food at the grill by the Criss Angel show thingy is hella good, and their downstairs buffet is the best one I have been to so far.

    Good luck. Have fun!

    Every time I go to vegas, I stay at the Sahara for that true early strip "Rat-Pack" feel. There really is no other true Casino down in that hellhole. I also wear a white sportcoat with a black hanky in the pocket.
