Not good at all. Yet somehow better than the wine.

Know before you go that you’re going for the vibe and location and AYCD wine.

Get off the strip, actually just off the strip. Also have Ellis Island not too far from there on Koval. That place is a blast and a low rollers heaven. A little farther down is Double Down Saloon one of the funnest, cheap diver bars in town with a punk rock jukebox and 70s porn on the tvs.

Yep. Tried to go into Stage Door for my 53rd birthday (after buying a few bottles of wine next door with my husband), but I didn't have my ID and they wouldn't let me in! LOL. Maybe we'll stop there this time and I'll have a drink for my 56th

Paradise and Naples is an interesting intersection. One side is 2 huge gay bars, the other side is grimy with the DD, the tattoo shop I go to and Naked City Pizza, which is very good if you like deep dish pies.

Mother Wolf was phenomenal, 10/10 dinner. The focaccia, cacio pepe, and pistachio gelato in particular but everything was great.

The owner is a pretty interesting character as well and also owns Frank’s Tiki Bar and a bar at the new punk rock museum.

Wj94, I’ve seen you post that you might be overly nice to restaurants because you worked as a server, I have to call you out for your mother wolf review. I can’t find one person besides you that would ever go back including myself. You get far better food at north Italia which is a small chain of simple American Italian food imo. Focaccia was really good though.

I did take an edible before dinner but the focaccia, Cacio e Pepe, and pistachio gelato were all absurdly good. Everything was but those stood out. Orgasms may have been had.

I also thought that for the price it felt like very good value despite being “expensive” everything was well worth the money. It was also free thanks to the tier matching comp but that doesn’t influence my opinion of the food.

What are the best food options for the breaks during WSOP? I scrolled through the last pages and got some ideas, but if there is a blog or whatever who has a big list with all options and different price ranges, that would be highly appreciated

Adding the chicken a la roca at Toca Madera to their list of epic tasty meats. Top tier marinade and cooked perfectly. The crispy charred edge pieces are stupidly good. $35:

Fwiw, bouchon is the best value for your buck on the strip for dinner. Had a fantastic meal for 3 with tip and drinks under $250. Beef short rib, muscles, and French onion soup were great and of course croque madame is simply the best.

Made a reservation for my upcoming trip. I signed up for InKind to get the 50 off 150, so they're going to pay me to eat this dish. Thanks for all your work ITT.

I just bought another $1500 of food credit on InKind for $1000 with a promo they’re running today. For $10/month you also get a $50 off $150 every month. The food winds up costing 40-50% less than menu price with all of the free stuff. Can’t beat that for on strip high end steakhouse.
