XS Bottle Service

[state08]

Hey guys,

I have been reading this site for a while in preparation for my trip next weekend for March Madness and finally decided to post.

After reading glowing reviews, I have been working with Ryan Perrings at XS to get bottle service for Friday night. He pretty much just gave me the bottle minimums and asked if I wanted to book and to give him my cell number. I did, and he said I am all set and he will contact me the day of to discuss details.

My friends are flipping out because they have heard horror stories about groups of guys showing up and not getting their table, getting a bad table, paying extra hidden fees, etc. While we know 10 girls going, only 9 of us guys are involved with the table. Should I be concerned that Ryan hasn’t discussed any details with me yet?

Also, what are appropriate tips for 9 guys with at least 3 bottles? I have done bottle service elsewhere but never in Vegas. We want to make sure we don’t leave anyone out that should be getting tipped out. Also, we’d like to have an idea of the total so I can collect money earlier in the day.

Lastly, does bottle service definitely guarantee us all getting to skip the line and waive cover?

Thanks for your help. As you can tell, I am new to the Vegas club scene.

You shouldn't be worried. If you have questions for Ryan or have table preferences feel free to ask him. Also, feel free to follow up and confirm. I like to confirm day before and day of and make sure to ask what time you should be there and if he will be walking you in etc.

For 9 guys, 3 bottles. $2-300 at a min for handshake at XS for decent service (walk you in, make sure everything goes smoothly with the booking/getting in, ok table depending on crowd/night). I would not expect a premium location though (although everyone has different standards for a good table, I personally don't think there are bad tables at XS). The best ones go for higher mins and higher handshakes unfortunately which I don't think are worth it.

money to be aware of - bottle price, tax, gratuity for waitress usually added to bill automatically, redbull costs extra, host tip, and I highly recommend a couple $20 tips to the security for your section if there is one and to the runner. THey are key in making the night go smoothly.

Everyone part of the table will get in quickly without cover (the 9 guys on the table). The other people will have to figure out something else.
