  • Seeking Advice | May 4 - 8

    Birthday coming and decided with a few friends to hop down to Vegas in 2 weeks.

    Been down to Vegas once before but we probably didnt take full advantage of it. Did alot of touristing, looking around for the first day or two, checked out downtown day 3, went home...

    Overall, we were left with the feeling that its a giant awesome place that we were totally lost in and had absolutely no idea how to take advantage of the place but were always sure to be back to rectify. Seems like it can only get better the more you go.

    Anyway, this time ive been trying to prepare so obviously stumbled upon this site.

    Our group was going to be just the guys, after doing some reading here starting to think we should bring the girls...

    Basically were going to gamble and hang out. Just regular guys, not huge into clubbing in general but certainly 40M dollar clubs pique our interest solely for the experience.

    Some of the places we are probably likely to check out aside from casinos are Nine Fine Irishmen, House of Blues, Lounge/Bar type spots. However one night at one of these ultra lounges / mega clubs appears interesting.

    Table service for a couple of house 11 - 1, 12 - 2 sort of thing is probably all were interested in. Doesnt need to be some super exclusive table, in fact somewhere on one of these terraces thats a bit quieter where we can just drink in the atmosphere is really all we want to check out.

    Any advice on where might be best?

    In terms of cost, I read all kinds of things about 400 a bottle etc. Money is not an issue but a I wanna be 100% sure the folks serving us are very happy with the tips. Not tipping like a rockstar.. but certainly always want to be in the upper end range of what the host / waitress / bus people are happy with. And want to avoid any harassment for tips that frankly, just ruin the night.

    If you really want to hit just one club, I'd probably pick XS.

      If you want to make sure the waitresses/hosts/bussers/security are VERY happy, here is how you should tip:

      Host: $150-175 per bottle that you order
      Waitress: Automatic 20% will be added to your bill for her, but give her another $40 per bottle in cash.
      Busboy/Runner: $40 per bottle that you order
      Security by your Table: $40 per bottle that you order

      That will almost guarantee that everybody taking care of you will show you lots of attention and you'll have a great time with no problems.
