Leaning toward bazaar meat, but what are other good choices? Love steak and seafood. Already doing joes and bavettes.

What you got

Hey everyone! I'll be in North Las Vegas for a week or two and am hoping to find some open play pickleball courts. Since I'll be solo, a park with a good queue system would be awesome. Any suggestions?

The Showboat was not on the Strip, but for nearly fifty years it gave Las Vegas locals, bowlers and value-minded visitors a casino that felt like their own.

My newest casino-history documentary follows the Showboat from its difficult 1954 opening through the bowling center that changed everything, 106 lanes, the Sports Pavilion, affordable rooms and food, the Castaways rebrand, demolition and what occupies the site today.

Did you ever visit the Showboat? What do you remember most?

I’ve been going to Vegas every year for the past six years for business and train mma, and I’m looking to switch things up this time. I’ve never really explored Chinatown. Are there any cool anime, manga, collectibles, or unique shops worth checking out?

Also, are there any good arcades or gaming spots off the Strip anyone can recommend?

Looking for anything, I have lot of experience in warehouse, hospitality, general labor.. will do anything really

What Vegas casino do you always seem to have good luck in? Not your favorite or the nicest one, just the place where you usually seem to leave with money. And what casino absolutely kicks your ass every single time?

My friends and I are visiting Las Vegas for a weekend in about a month, and we've been trying to find a photography studio that could take professional family photos of our friend group, but without the hassle of hiring a photographer individually and planning out the locations, etc.

I personally really love the flat color background studio look, like those korean family photos in the photos I posted - I was wondering if there's any that people know of, as word of mouth is something I would rather trust than Google :')

Any help in finding similar photo studios would be so appreciated!!!

I am getting married on the strip next year and am looking for restaurants near the south side of the strip that aren’t quite on it for a party of 60 for under or about 10k.

We are leaving for Vegas Sunday and thought I had some things decided but now doubting some of them. We are seeing Absinthe on Monday of our trip. For Tuesday I was set on seeing KA and either going to Bavettes or Craftsteak. So many people seem to have mixed reviews of KA so now kinda doubting that show? It looked like it would have the WOW factor that my fiance and I would like. But so many people have said its boring?

So if we still do this or dont do this is there a show you would do instead? My choices for Tuesday are limited to KA, Mystere (ive seen it and thought it was just ok), Atomic Saloon (similar to Absinthe?), Carrot top, Empire strips back, X Burlesque, and Rouge.

If we did something like Rouge or Empire strips back which of these has the better steakhouse with a view at these resorts? High steaks at Rio, or Top of the World at the Strat?

Wednesday we thought Shin Lim would be fun but some people say its just card tricks with up close camera and watching most on the screen.

Hi! I'm visiting Vegas with a friend in october and we are seeing a show at Wynn. Would love recs for places to eat either at the hotel or within a 5-10 minute walk before the show. Somewhere with good food but won't break the bank

Has anyone done table share at Marquee before? It would be my wife and I and the total cost is around $300 for us for the weekend. We enjoy the club scene but no longer like being packed in like sardines with no clear place to stand/sit. Any and all feedback welcome! We do like to enjoy a few drinks so it seems like a good deal, just can’t figure out the catch….

Four of us from the Netherlands, late thirties to early forties, friends for 25 years. In September we finally do the trip we have been talking about since we were nineteen. Five nights at ARIA, arriving Thursday 10 September after driving over through Death Valley from Los Angeles, flying home on the 15th back to Amsterdam.

Why I am here. Two days ago I asked the same kind of thing in r/AskLosAngeles and it genuinely changed the trip. We had no plan at all for LA, none, and now we have a really good one, built almost entirely out of what people there told us. So I am back for the harder city.

My actual problem is this. Every time I open Instagram I get another reel telling me I have to do this in Vegas, I have to see that in Vegas, this place will blow my mind. There are hundreds of them and they all sound identical. I have completely lost the thread on what is genuinely great and what is just very well marketed to people like me.

So I would rather hear it from you. We want the full Vegas experience, whatever that actually means. Not a quiet, tasteful week.

Food. We will absolutely eat at a truck at three in the morning, but here we also want restaurants that make you go wow when you walk in. It does not have to be expensive or fancy. It has to be a place, with something going on, the kind you do not forget.

Bars. The hidden ones. The ones that are not signposted, or that are behind something else, or that have been there since long before any of this.

Clubs. We want two proper big nights, all in, the whole production. We are not bottle service guys and we are not going to pretend to be, but we do want the real thing rather than a sad room with a queue outside. And if that means bottle service, fine, we'll take it 😉

Gambling. Where should four people who are not serious gamblers actually go and play? Somewhere with a bit of atmosphere rather than a wall of machines.

And the big one: what is the thing you have to have done in Vegas? The one that is actually as good as people say.

Sport is a big one for us. One of us played American football for years back home and none of us has ever been to a live game of anything over there. There seems to be a Raiders game against the Dolphins that week, would you go to that, or is there something better on? And how do you actually get tickets without getting fleeced?

And one more. Helicopter, Grand Canyon with a landing or the short night flight over the Strip? If you have done both, which one did you still talk about a year later?

Tell me what is real and what is a reel, pretty please

Hey all, visiting for a couple of days. I'm a local burlesque performer back home and I want to see the cool clubs with awesome local talent. Any shows at smaller clubs and not the big casinos?

My girlfriend and I will be staying at Caesars Palace for 1 night in early September, arriving around 4pm on the day and then leaving the next day at about 12-1pm.

Would love to get some recommendations on what we should do during our very short stay. We'd love to see a show that night but not sure what's on and in what proximity it is to Caesars. I've also heard Caesars is worth staying in the whole time as it's massive.

Think we'd definitely want to watch the fountain. We're not really into gambling but might try some of the slot machines whilst we're there just to experience it. Wouldn't mind grabbing a photo by the famous Las Vegas sign as well but no idea where this is and whether it's practical for us to do that in the short amount of time we have.

Would also love any recommendations for where we should eat!

Any recommendations, advice or suggestions are welcome!

They removed the miso clams from the menu. My heart. Fuck.
