okay, first off, i think main street is closed, hotel and casino floor;
second, the name of the dish is 'saimin';
third, the pic is not 'saimin' but locally, in the islands, known as 'won-ton-min', e.g. the dumplings;
fourth, you eat a side of gravy with wonton-min? to each his own, but maybe mustard w/ shoyu?

MSS is closed, what does this have to do with Specialities being open on the walkway between MSS and the Cal?

I said Might. They won't know the real effect until next year. They'll probably blame the lower take this year on the you-know-what flu. If next year is weak it might be a different story.

To see if opening right now is a good idea or not we’d need to know how much not opening would cost them. The Fremont location is a huge gamble anyway, would be cool to see a luxury property have success over there.
Another luxury property means high prices, fewer comps, worse odds/machines, and the Strip has plenty of these types of places already.

As this place opens can anyone provide intel / reviews on their restaurants? Are we expecting any fine dining or must-visits inside Circa?

Um not sure about fine dining but there seems to be what appears to be a good delicatessen.

Yep. Didn't mean to dispute that. But that's the way Vegas is going to be at least for the foreseeable future.

There's absolutely nothing suggesting a decline in sports betting. There's a recent thread in NVG where people speculate on the next big thing in gambling and I think sports betting is the #1 thing people list for the US.

I might be wrong but based on the announcements, the only fine dining restaurant is a vintage steakhouse from the former executive chef at N9NE / Scotch 80 Prime at the Palms. If the concept is only remotely similar to those places, that's probably a pass for me. Other than that there's the usual suspects of burger joint, BBQ place and pan-asian restaurant. The only thing that sounds really interesting to me is Saginaw’s Delicatessen by Paul Saginow, one of the co-founders of Zingerman’s Deli.

I can't get any straight answers about parking charges. Last night on the news they said Free self parking for locals, I tried to call but since its being answered by The D they seem confused and after them saying not free for locals she said was free until hotel opens in December. lol

If anyone knows for sure post it please.

You mean like the huge decline in viewership of NFL and NBA is "absolutely nothing suggesting"? Baseball and hockey have dropped off too. I don't know how much because I don't give a rat's arse about those sports. You know it's mostly fans that do the betting, right? Lose the fans, lose the betting revenue.

The question is, are most sports bettors betting because they are watching sports, or watching sports because they want to bet? Obviously, people will fit in both categories. But if the drop off in viewership is mostly from non-sports bettors, the sports book market will be less impacted. It's probably hard for this forum to believe, but there are people who watch sports that don't bet at all.

Yes to the first point. For the second point, (monetary) engagement of fans/viewers at home is among the big long term goals of the leagues.

Losing a chunk of (former) core audiences is a trade-off owners are willing to make. People always want to make it political but at the end of the day it’s an obvious business decision. As a pro sports league, your potential future lifetime earnings from one 15 year old brown boy from San Francisco are probably higher than those from three 60 year old white guys in Alabama.

There’s a reason why everyone wants to get into the legalized sports betting market, including media companies. Live betting on your phone while watching a game on TV at home is going to be a huge market and brick & mortar sportsbooks see a lot of potential for them, too.

Barry's Steakhouse. I think he was the head chef at Nine at the Palms which brought in a nice locals high society crowd even when the place turned for the worse

Further tweets elaborate that an entree must be purchased to get the 99 cent deal.

Anyone know what craps odds Circa offers?

Yea, I saw that. Apparently like most things, early on people are confused. So the counter person didn't know you had to buy an entree at the time.
