You ain’t wrong
As locals to Vegas, each time that we watch your “on strip” videos makes us feel even better about visiting the off strip casinos and restaurants such as Station casinos along with downtown. Great food and cocktails, better gambling and all for a much better price. Thanks for sharing. The dessert looked great.

Nice! Prices getting crazy but we enjoy checking out new places
I just hate when the cocktails are half the price of an entree! I don't want my bar bill to be more than the food at an expensive steakhouse.

That steak looks incredible! Definitely splurging on this next time I'm at The Flamingo. Thanks for the mouthwatering review!

So glad to hear it’s consistent!! Thank you for sharing!
Great review. I'm glad you enjoyed your meal. I had dinner there a couple of months ago. As I was having steak a few of days later at Carversteak at Resorts World, I decided just to have a drink, French Onion Soup and the short ribs. While the soup was very good, unlike you, I was disappointed with the short ribs, which is a dish that I really appreciate. In Vegas restaurants, I would say that the short ribs at Craftsteak in the MGM are far superior. Also, like you, as a frequent visitor to Las Vegas, you can really see that food prices have increased far more than inflation. The price of fine dining is becoming more of a factor than the cost of a good hotel. I really like and appreciate your vids. Keep up the good work.

You're right, Las Vegas prices have skyrocketed lately, it's definitely not the budget-friendly destination it once was. Luckily, my MGM resort credits let me indulge at some of the pricier restaurants, otherwise it would be way out of my budget.

I went there shortly after they first opened and I loved it so much I went back the next night! The porterhouse was great! They used to have a Crème Cheesecake with a marshmallow pretzel and a chocolate coin with the Bugsy and Meyer's name in gold on it. It was so delicious, but that banana split cake looked awesome! Those salads looked uniquely delicious too. Guess I'll have to go outside my MGM bubble and make a trip back there!

We ate there a few years ago and we also enjoyed it. To date it is still the best mash potato purée (Yukon gold potato purée). It has to be more butter than potato so I wouldn’t say it was the healthiest 😂

I appreciate you both sharing your experiences with us in your videos, it’s informative and entertaining. The sticker shock you are experiencing is very sad: Caesar’s properties especially are price gouging at their restaurants. This explains why so many of my Las Vegas meals are fast food I can’t get at home (love you, Raising Canes!) and cafes like Sadelle’s, Primrose and America.

Makes sense
The fancy cocktails are just not a good value. Try a standard gin tonic with lime. The perfect summer drink. And those fancy cocktails will distort your sense of taste with the exotic juices. TJ Store Braised Beef, $15, and it can feed 2. Over rice. For your home cooking.

The pricing is just getting out of control. I use all the ways possible to save money but really hard to justify $35 for a drink. I think maybe, just maybe, people are pulling back a bit. I was there a few weeks ago and certainly felt like it was a little slow for the time of year.

Short rib at Sinatra was fricking insane
@JoshRachael
29 күн бұрын
We have been talking lately about needing to try Sinatra again. When we went Rachael was coming down with some sickness and I think it threw us off. The only downside I remember was how loud it was inside there, but seems that is how pretty much everything is now.
Those cocktails were definitely higher than other places - Suffice to say that we only showed off one for our video, and then left it at that. They were delicious cocktails though. The bill for us came out to over $350’ish but we did thankfully spend about $100 in Rewards Credits to whittle it down. The steak was really delightful though. And the Tomahawk looked so good but was definitely a bit pricier than we wanted to spend so we went with the short rib and the dry aged ribeye. But that Mac and Cheese looked amazing. Great video ❤ -Paul

How much
Yeah, every time I go (2 or 3 times a year) I shake my head and have sticker shock. I don't mind spending for quality, and understand strip markup.. lately though it feels more and more places are taking advantage and there's going to be a point where there is push back. Interesting that this week Picasso announced they are closing and rumors are Bazaar Meats is next. I know picasso is because Julian Serrano is retiring...but they could have found a way without him there every day. Eaten at both, and while not cheap, I didn't feel like I was over paying. Your last 2 reviews the prices made me cringe a bit.
@JoshRachael

Yea I think Caesars is a group we struggle with. Lots of their restaurants don’t have that special quality to them but they have the price tag that keeps rising
Much of the high drink prices are a result the Caesars rewards program. They accept reward credit, plus if your a Diamond plus level, you qualify for 4 free drinks per day up to $25 per drink. Which is a good deal.

You pay the price when you go to a steak house in Vegas. You just about expect it. But if the food is good there can bee no complaints about the prices. Main thing the steak is cooked to your liking.
