My ex-fiance...still a very good friend of mine actually told me about this place. I'll have to give it a try.

So it's basically a "Higher End" version of The Cheesecake Factory?

Where are some places in Vegas that would be recommended?

Seafood is not an option as it makes me ill.

I'm thinking of hitting up the Bellagio Buffet,,,but hear it's ridiculously expensive. Any thoughts?
I like In n Out Burger, but if you are going for a burger Fatburger is better.

There is a Fatburger right over around the MGM Grand. I know there are several in Vegas, but that is the one that I went too.

I'm fly at Fatburger when I'm way out west.


PS King Burger is the way to go if you going to go Fat.

do you also like White Castle cause it's the best?

My wife and I enjoyed Tao at the Venetian. It is very trendy. Jamie Foxx was there when we were there, to my wife's delight. The food was very trendy and pricy but it was very tasty and was a fun place. It is very much an upscale people watching place that can make for a fun date. If you don't like Asian fusion or asian quisine don't go there though

I chill at White Castle because it's the best. Although, to my dismay, White Castle fries only come in one size.

Isnt Tao the place in vegas that sells the Kobe beef burger for $50 or something like that? I know there is someplace there that does that.
