Default Thanksgiving in Vegas

Does anyone know of any hotels/restaurants that put out a nice spread for Thanksgiving?

My experience is that on Thanksgiving, a lot of the poker rooms are more busy then may make sense.


I've had Thanksgiving dinner in the casino/hotels for the past 13 years and love it. However, the lines at some of the buffets on Thanksgiving, sometimes resemble the Woodstock Nation. I've seen much shorter DMV lines.


I know of a little gem at my favorite local casino that I pretty much get right in & out (no wait) on Thanksgiving and get a very decent meal (IMHO, YMMV). Poker room is nearby and so is movie theater.


Wherever you go on Thanksgiving.....

Have a good time and stack some Turkeys playing poker!


Best Wishes

Howard

Orleans (& Suncoast).

One of the non buffet/ coffee shop restaurants (THEY have VERY long lines on Thanksgiving/Christmas.)


South of the border theme & they have traditional Thanksgiving dinner that day (PLUS free chips & salsa!).


Happy Pokering

I know of one poker room that gives a line pass for any poker player so they dont' have to spend forever in the buffet line but even those aren't accepted on holidays. Only way to bypass the line is to get a host to get you in.

Another good reason I like eating turkey & dressing on Thanksgiving at Orleans or Suncoast (at the restaurants noted prior). To date, I have been in with zero wait. YMMV.



Photoc, I know you hang
at South Point sometimes. I wonder if their Mexican restaurant has the same set-up on Thanksgiving? They used to be a Boyd/Coast, so maybe.


Best Wishes
