Larry's Vegas Restaurant Guide

I don't know Larry, but I do know that this man is living the dream. Eating like a king, visiting the mecca a ridiculous number of times, and doing it all first class.

Here is a link to Larry's restaurant guide for Las Vegas. He skew toward fine dining and critiques each place with a detailed review.

From the site-
" In the last few years, I've spent a ridiculous amount of time in Las Vegas - and a lot of the time was spent eating at Las Vegas' rapidly improving array of restaurants. While I've only had one meal at many of the restaurants listed, I've eaten more than a dozen meals at a couple of the places.

The reviews vary in the amount of information provided - my journal was more detailed on some trips than on others. Where possible, I describe the menu, atmosphere, service, and each item ordered. I also try to provide an indication of cost; unless otherwise noted, the amount listed is for one person, exclusive of drinks, tax and tip."

VegasRy Podcast Blog

Someone sent me this link to the VegasRy podcast. Its from the perspective of a couple of guys both named Ryan and their misadventures in Vegas.

Also on their website there are reviews of hotels, casinos, nightclubs, shows, books and restaurants. The site is very clean looking and easy to navigate. I always appreciate a cleanly designed website (much unlike mine, lol).

From their site-"Ryan Morris and Ryan Johnson have been to Las Vegas more times than we can remember (literally), and started VegasRy.com as an outlet for all our thoughts, reviews and news we run across. Our goal is to create the most helpful and fun Vegas-related destination on the Net. We welcome and encourage thoughts, suggestions, or any other feedback as we endeavor to develop and maintain the best Vegas site out there."

One comment- To state you want to "develop and maintain the best Vegas site out there" is pretty ballsy, considering some of the great sites out there already, but I say go for it. I can never get enough Vegas info and I love getting that perspective from young hip folks.

What Brian Thinks

Here is a site by a guy named Brian that has hotel reviews, food reviews, a pretty active forum, and random Vegas stories. A good place to spend some time researching all things Vegas. The forum seems active with knowlegable Vegas folks contributing. So go check em out and leave a comment if you like what they are doing over there.

From the site-"So Who The Hell Am I, And What's With This Site?
Vegas is now run by lawyers and advertising executives.
Like a used car dealer, these are the same guys you’ve seen in every other profession who try to take everything they can from you, while giving you as little as they can in return. These are the same guys who would prefer to spend money on advertising that TELLS you something is good, rather then actually making it good.
Like you, I'm just a guy who likes to go to Vegas. I don't have any special connections, I don't get comp’ed the best of everything, and Dennis Rodman doesn't invite me to parties. Like you, I don't get to go to Vegas as often as I'd like, so when I'm there it really bugs me to spend money and time on something that doesn't rock.
That’s why I made this site.
You can learn from my mistakes, and benefit from my experiences. This site is nothing but my opinions; take them for what they're worth, and use them however you like.

Cheapo Vegas

Thanks to English Bob and AcerockollaUK for reminding me about a glaring omission- CheapoVegas.

CheapoVegas was actually one of the first Vegas websites that I'd ever spent time doing Vegas research. I have no idea how it wasn't in my original list of favorites. Anyway it's a must visit site for its humor and excellent "cheapo" reviews.

The site breaks down hotels, pools, buffets, poker rooms, sportsbooks and a whole lot more sprinkling plenty of humor throughout. This site is a must read even for the seasoned Vegas traveler.
