It is a good but small exhibit. If you skip the photo and the kiddies game at the end, it will only take around 20 mins to finish. Find a coupon and the admission costs $39 for adults. Still kind of expensive. Taking a star off for the price. $20 -$25 probably more reasonable for what it is.

This is the best hotel I have ever been to with my doggies!!! When we moved from Colorado to California we had to drive with our dogs across several states and stay in different hotels. NoMad in Las Vegas was the best experience on our trip, the staff were extremely nice and helpful with everything we needed also they were absolutely amazing and friendly with our dogs which means a lot to us. Dogs are welcome anywhere in the hotel and casino 😃 We are grateful for the excellent service, kind people and great quality! 🌸🌸🌸

This place in the nuts. Great location in the compact downtown area. Far fewer tourist traps around compared to the vast resorts on the strip. Best of all, there is a mini fridge in each room (without the mini bar). Rare in Vegas.. go downstairs to the ABC store and fill up on cheaper drinks! Best rooms definitely have the pool view. Noise was not an issue. Won't stay anywhere else in Vegas again.

First things first. The food was good. We had 11 people, and we all tried different things. My favorites were the beef carpaccio, the tomahawk and the bone in the fillet were great, the mac and cheese and mass potatoes were wonderful, and the crimbrulee and baked alaskan were fantastic. Now for the Service: Or the lack of service i should say. When I was told we were eating at smith and wollensky in the Venetian hotel. It conjured up this image of amazing food and amazing service. I've heard nothing but great things about this restaurant, so I was excited to try it for the first time, but sadly, I've had better service at my local Ihop on a busy Saturday night, then i did here on a monday with a half full dining room. We came in on Monday, Sept 18th, for our 8pm reservation. It was a wedding dinner for my friends from Australia. We did not get seated until 8:25, so while we were waiting, we decided to get some drinks at the bar while we were waiting. When they told us our table was ready, we asked if we could transfer the drinks from the bar to the table. Both the bartender and host were very adamant and stirn that we had to close out at the bar and that they don't do transfers at this restaurant. Even though one of our guests was paying for the whole meal. During our dining experience, it felt like we were a 2nd thought to our waiter. I had to ask multiple times with other servers and server assistance for water refills. There was no pre bussing done on our table, so it was covered in a lot of dirty plates and empty glasses most of the night. It got so bad that i finally stacked up as much of the plates as i could to give us room on our table. Right before our main course came out is when they finally took all the empty plates off that table that had been sitting there for a long time. The host of our party ordered a lot of wine for the table and i noticed at the end there were 2 extra full bottles of chardonnay open, even though we had just order a bottle of port, and a bottle of ice wine to have with dessert. I also noticed that during our dinner, there were 3 to 4 servers, including our server standing at the bar polishing glasses, laughing, and having a good old time. Which would not be an issue if we had our server attending to us. During our meal, I asked my server if he had a phone charger i could use because my battery was very low, and i needed it to call our ubers after dinner. He asked me if it was an apple, and i said no, i needed a C-charger. He said we dont have that one and walked off. I thought to my self "Surly some one in this place has a charger i could use." So i walked around and found the manger on duty in a side room talking with some of the other servers. I asked him if he had a charger i could use, and he said yes, he has one at the host stand. This was the only time i ever saw the manger the whole night. We had a pretty large meal ticket that night, and i know we had gratuity added on so i fell like our server did not fell the need to do much for us because we were a guaranteed tip. There was nothing exciting about our meal except the food. Nothing was mentioned by the server or management about the newlyweds. The only time I remember seeing our server was when he came around to ask if we wanted to order anything else. And it seemed like he was put off that he had to take care of us.

Very disappointed that they changed the name of this place & no longer offer daiquiris with alcohol in it. You have to add shots of alcohol in it. I had a bad experience with Fat Tuesday during my 2nd visit to Vegas & with this recent change, I was forced to go to Fat Tuesday today. To me, this is for kids now which isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

My family & I love Silk Road food. We try something different every time we go. However, the last few times have not been so pleasant. For example, on 06/20/23 after checking the website that instructed the restaurant to close at 10 pm, we also called the restaurant who stated Silk Road closed at 10 pm. Upon arrival, the very rude host stated “We closed” It was 8:50p. I stated to the host the website and hotel staff are stating Silk Road closes at 10 pm are they both Inaccurate? The host began to grab her head angrily several times as if my question bothered her. Before stating “The staff just tells us to close we close” & then began assisting the guest behind me as if I was not still standing there. The rudeness was 100% uncalled for This is the second time the staff has been rude to my family. The food isn’t worth the disrespect my family and I receive. We drive 40 mins just to enjoy this experience. However, it remains unclear why a restaurant that doesn’t open until 5 pm began turning their customers away before 9:00 pm.

I really wanted to love this place, and it was... fine. I think they started with a really good idea. However, there isn't a lot of separation from the casino floor, and that makes it hard to have much of an upscale feel. They had the standard range of bourbons, but nothing that really stood out. My Manhattan was very good, but they didn't have a lot of specialty drinks and my bartender seemed to be going through the motions. I have a video of the space on the Dine Drink Travel Vegas Youtube channel. Would I go back there for a drink? Yeah, absolutely, if I already happened to be in the MGM. Would I go out of my way to drink there? I would not. The experience just isn't that different from the standard casino bar.

The food is good here. Some dishes are way better than others. I’ve been here twice and feel like the seafood noodle soup was the most blah dish of all the ones I’ve tried before. It’s definitely made for a person that’s a safe eater and not for the adventurous type or someone who likes spice. The calamari was quite hard to bite all the way through. The schezuan dumplings were so good- they were hot and the sauce they were in was flavorful and had good texture from the fried bits of onion or shallot or garlic. I even put that sauce in my seafood soup! The Mai Tai was cheap tasting- it did the job but I’ve had better. The old fashioned was also very watered down. It wasn’t as potent as it should’ve been and they used normal chunks of ice instead of a nice big one. So again it did the job but wasn’t special at all. I rated the atmosphere low because it feels rushed when you’re dining there. It’s not a relaxing atmosphere for me.

Fantastic restaurant! I came here on a recommendation and I liked every single thing about this place (things that matter a lot!). 1. I like the fact that they are open late! Even take you at 11:30pm. 2. I like that they offer Pepsi (Coca Cola is all over the market). 3. Prices are very decent. 4. Portions are super satisfying! 5. The place is clean and well organized. 6. People are happy all around. I was taken care by a very friendly guy whose name started with a "D" or a "C". Despite the fact that I came late and most likely he was tired and ready to leave; he did an outstanding job! The rest of the staff seemed cool. Now I found my new place "to go to" every time I come to Vegas.

Thank goodness her backup singers are very good!!! The Male performers are buff and shiny, but I prefer Chippendale's, a little classier perhaps? Anyway, a fun way to start a girls night out. But I wouldn't go crazy on the type of tix I purchased.

Thus was my first time experiencing a hot air balloon ride. I came for a different kind of trip but it was very entertaining nonetheless. The crew here is very close, and they work well together. They are professionals who take their job seriously and have outstanding customer service. They really try to make sure you get the most out of your trip. You show up early at the main office and they drive you out to the outskirts of the city so you really can get the serene views of the desert. It's really peaceful and surprisingly comfortable. A lot of jokes were thrown around showing how long they all have known each other for some time. This is an incredible experience to have here in Las Vegas, something different than your run-of-the-mill strip experience. Go check it out

We had this attraction as part of the city pass. I would recommend a city pass for this attraction over buying a ticket just for this. The views are amazing, and the views are worth it. We spent around 30 minutes maybe 40 on the observation deck.

Great food, great service, reasonable prices for eating at a high class restaurant in a casino resort, don't get me wrong is not cheap, but cheap means poor quality food, at Oakville the food is definitely good quality and tasty. The service very high and professional. Thank you, was my second time and I will be back again in the next 30 days, being a local.
