Its on Tropicana and the Orleans has a great movie theater. They just upgraded the seats to the recliners. West of the strip about 1 mile
]]>Thye have movie theatres at the Orleans hotel and casino…also bowling alleys. Its down Flamingo drive I belie
ve about 10 minutes off the strip.
Buffets go up and down.
The M is getting raves from just about everyone these days.
Appreciate your thoughts.
]]>I always do video poker at EI but have never eaten there. I’ve pulled some coin out of the place and sucked down a few $1 rum and cokes. I always see them in the bbq pit that’s on the west facing side of the property. It smells good but when I’m there, its usually mid afternoon and I’m riding a rented bicycle so I’m in no shape to be eating a big meal. Maybe I’ll go later some time and try it and that’s based on how good it smells from the cooker.

My Vegas experience started in 1961 but my mom forgets I was 1 years old and she asks, “Did you like Vegas as a kid?” Honestly, there are some dejavue moments in Vegas mostly in older properties. I have recurring dreams about the Tropicana. My deceased dad is there. My memorable moments in Vegas began in 1998. Wow, the drive across the Hoover dam was a nightmare. Big trucks held up traffic for about 10 miles. 9/11 made it where big trucks had to go through Laughlin. The drive to the dam became wonderful with them gone. Ok, you mentioned buffets. Holy cow, how great was the Luxor? I thought I had reached heaven and that is how they fed you. This was well ahead of the big chef union strike. Luxor had a huge line at ever mealtime. We learned to get there at 10AM, pay breakfast price, then wait out arrival of lunch items at 10:45. I kind of do that still. Luxor now is like a bit ahead of Golden Coral. The sister buffet, Excalibur is about the same, as they both went with self serve drinks. I do like that, the glasses are tiny. Aria is good but pricey. MGM is ok. Planet Hollywood is fine as is Paris. Harrahs has a 24 hour deal for eating on one price. Bellagio was overrated in my opinion. I remember the big lines in early 2000’s and I thought “I guess that’s where rich people eat.” When I finally got to go, the biggest deal going was the cold cut station. Oh, don’t do a buffet on Sunday. Its a real down day for resorts and they set the meal prices at $35 but you don’t get anything extra. Just eat at a restaurant or food court on Sunday. The buffets on Fremont are OK. Golden Nugget is one of the best. The off strip resorts tend to cater to the locals and regulars so the are a couple notches above Golden Coral. Ok, what is the best? By far, the Rio. I think when the chef strike was over, and most resorts eliminated that position, they all went to the Rio. Yes, its pricey but you will be pleased.
