call Randy or Mike

not a bad idea.

sarah and I are trying to decide where to eat the night we're going to a show. we figured we'd make an entire night out of it and go all out.

we were gonna go to a place called fiori's. they were supposed to have incredible steaks, and a cigar menu that you can order off of as part of your meal. we called to make reservations...and it doesn;t exist anymore, so now we're kinda scrambling.

where is the show

 

[jrohrer]

blue man group at the venetian

 

[tobby4]

alright... let me think... trying to figure out what is near there on the strip that is good

Ok here ya go...follow my advice, and you wont be disappointed.

One of the BEST steakhouses in town is at Circus Circus, believe it or not...go there, period.

While you are at the Venetian, eat at Canaletto in St Mark's Square. It's absolutely awesome. For a lunch, go to Paris and sit outside along the street in a restaurant I can't remember the name, but its right out front, you can't miss it...

You are welcome!

 

[jrohrer]

thanks Randy!

what type of food is Canaletto?

would you resommend eating before or after the show?

blue man groups show is awesome. I couldn't stop laughing when I saw them in New York. Interestingly I was on a school field trip and my teacher scheduled that as an event.

 

[jrohrer]

must have been a pretty sweet class!

really looking forward to the show...I've seen STOMP and loved it, and I've heard this is even better.

Sarah got me tix for my birthday :stretchgr

Man...I lived there for about 4 years. If your looking for seafood, there's an awesome Seafood buffet in the Rio. It's not part of the "world buffet" or whatever the hell it's called, but it's in the Rio.

That's probably the only buffet in town that's worth a damn.

If you want some good Hawaiian food you can go to the Cal or Main St. Casino off of Fremont St. There's a cafe just off of the sky bridge where you can get some awesome chow.

Now I'm hungry for Oxtail Soup.

Country French -Le Provençal, Paris Casino, Awesome country french food, get bouillabase, singing waitstaff _ Not fancy french

:thumbsup: This place is great! Plus, they have the $500k "James Bond" table which is pretty cool to see
