Best Italian in town = Name I can't remember nest to Hilton.

[/ QUOTE ] Piero's is the place youre talking about and I agree it is. Get the Osso Buco or Stone Crab. I think Ruth Chris has the best steak in town. And Olives is good but I think they are asses. (I grew up in Vegas and lived there until about 4 years ago, BTW).

since ur from NYC then Le Cirque is prob out but Picasso's (also at bellagio) supposed to be good.
seems like all the known places are just outposts of other retaurants from around the country. i love a great meal - have fun!

responding to a few at once:

irie: i'll be in touch shortly

vinyard: rofl at the rush street triangle area in general, and yes, it's not really all that close to the best place in chicago either. i think lawry's for lunch sometime this week though if you're up for it?

re: le cirque - didn't le cirque ny just close? i never got to eat there, and well, i am 24, it's not like i've eaten everywhere.

re: olives - why can't i ever remember, is olives the one that's like the cafe thing with the view of the fountain or is olives a different one?

more soon, good ideas peeps.

i don't know if that's a joke or not, but i am not going to fly to vegas to eat at a chain restaurant with locations within 3 miles of me.

[/ QUOTE ] And to that point, why eat at Morton's in Chicago when its not close to being one of the five best steakhouses in the city? Its also full of Vaigra-filled septagenaurains and their twenty two year old "model" girlfriends. Jeebus you people suck.

i think they're going to read that incorrectly and think that they should be taking notes on the fact that if they have lots of money and a ferrari they can get 2 hot 20y.o.s even when they're 70. then again, it's possible that's not the wrong thing to take note of.

that will clearly be indicative of my value structure at age 70. oh, and breathing. that'll be important as well.

Vegas is the food capital of America.

I find it very, very hard to believe that the food in Vegas in better than the food in NYC.
