Ditto. I was there over Christmas and stayed on the 13th floor.
Did you win?

Yes, this was my first, but I'm only 33 years old
We stopped at a Race Trac when we got back to BR.
I looked at the ICEE machine and thought, "You've been topped"

Nice pictures. Next time you go I can point you in the direction of some better resturant that are similarly priced as the ones you went to.

That would be very much appreciated

Great review...
To anyone, planning a trip in July for the wife and I's 10th wedding anniversary.
Planning to stay at Aria. Good choice?
Looking for a show one of the nights... Recommendations?
Looking to eat at Burger Bar and Javy's. Looking for one nice meal and other suggestions.
We haven't been in 12 years so it's been awhile.
Looking for any other suggestions as well.
TIA

I'm going in April, has anyone been to Gordon Ramsay's Steakhouse. Worth a visit or overhyped/priced?

Aria is great place. You can't go wrong with it. Good location pretty central to the strip.
Shows: my two favorite now in town are still O and Absinthe.
I liked Burger Bar, but I love burgers. Haven't been to Javy's. Golden Steer is a great steakhouse right off Sahara. It's old school and has that Vegas mob feel. Cool setting. Circus Circus steakhouse is legit too. Casino sucks but steakhouse is good.
The Linq Promenade setup now is pretty cool. Shops, bars and dining. If you are looking for cheap gambling/drinks on the strip go to Casino Royale. It's a dive, but fun for gambling and don't have to break the bank.

Really good. The sticky toffee pudding was amazing.

Ate at Javier's last night. We all really liked it. Great atmosphere and the margaritas were awesome.

Flying out tomorrow morning. I'll have to try this place out. If anyone is in town lets grab a drink. My only real plans are to hike Red Rock and maybe Valley of Fire.
Posted on 3/25/17 at 9:45 pm to jmarto1
We drove up to Red Rock today. Just to drive the scenic road and stop and take pictures, etc....no hiking.
I gotta say....I was expecting more. I mean, it's gorgeous and all....but I thought the Red Rock park would be bigger. Our friends that live here said Valley of Fire was much more impressive.

Yes, it is. The petroglyphs always made my day as a kid.

Thanks!
This will help as I plan.

Thanks for the review
I will check that one out next time
We ran into some people on the Mandalay Bay to Luxor tram that said The Valley of Fire is a must next time we go
My next trip there is already getting full with things to do
Thanks to all

I agree with LasVegasTiger
It was a nice place and very central to the strip
I plan on booking a hotel around that area next time.
My wife says Planet Hollywood

I hope it's not too hot then
We were there 3 weeks ago
Our last 2 days there, it got up to 86 degrees and that was pretty hot for all that walking we did.
I got a good tan
Hope you guys have a blast

According to everyone on here, don't take my advice on food places

Don't go anytime in the summer then.
When you live in the desert....86 is a temp you are happy about.

That's what I was told
My wife thought 86 was perfect
Granted I think 86 in Vegas is much better than 86 in Louisiana....the humidity is the killer
I thought our first 2 days were the best
First day was a high of 58
Second day was a high of 65

Awesome review, lots of good info.
I like the Park sites a lot better than this tourist trap. The Indian tribe got dat money.
It's a lot closer to go there than the actual North and South Rim spots traditionally associated with the Grand Canyon.
