    If you go to a late lunch and are discreet you can often stay and get the dinner buffet food as well.

    Hmmm, never tried that.

    I remember the Aria buffet a few years ago was 19.99 lunch and 39.99 dinner. The dinner came with limited lobster, which was small, but unlimited wine which was cool.

    Call XS, and ask for "Z". If you tell him "John Mont" referred you, he will let you in for free unless its a major holiday weekend

    I have it on good word that O'Shea's and Casino Royale have the best Coors Light on the strip.

    Sadly, (or happily, for most people), O'Shea's has been demolished, and the Imperial Palace is gonna go along with it as they get folded into a new casino and entertainment area operated by Caesar's.

    O'Shea's is gone. That area is being redeveloped into something called The Linq.http://www.caesars.com/thelinq/
    Casino Royale does indeed have Coors Light. They have Coors Light draft for 75ยข. Or you can get Michelob in the bottle for $1.

    Dude doing this is pretty dangerous. I tried to practice using this method and both times using 2,000 fake dollars I lost everything. I had better luck betting low, like 10 dollars, then doubling that if I lose.

    This place isn't so great, more of a tourist trap for a celeb chef. Food is fine but nothing special

    There's no reason to be discreet. You can run up there and say, "did I make it in time for the lunch price? Is the dinner food coming out soon? Yeah!" The buffet line workers aren't there to prevent this. :)

    Not listing the Wynn buffet and the Cosmopolitan buffet is a travesty.

    The Wynn is great, but I've tried Wicked Spoon (Cosmo buffet) like 3 times now and have been underwhelmed. The presentation is great and the individual portions are a nice touch, but the food itself seemed a little bland. I like really bold flavors, strong spices, and Cosmo was just blah...of course better than average, but not great.

    Ha! Your probably right. I guess I'm just overly cautious. I'll be at the Bellagio on Christmas day. Of course they've jacked up the buffet cost because it's Christmas. Good thing I'll be doing the lunch price.

    Really? Someone had recommended Wicked Spoon, and I wanted to try it. But there are so many things to try. I haven't eaten at Ramsay's steak house yet, and he's just opened two new restaurants. I also love lunch at Rao's.

    Is the Hash House a Go-go the best place for breakfast? Every time I've been, I haven't really gone for anything special for breakfast although I did have an excellent breakfast sandwich from Whichcraft before. It was damn good, but not much on atmosphere, and I like to sit down sometimes and get a big breakfast.
