Are These Las Vegas Strip's Most OVERRATED Restaurants?

[@mreppen1]

I’ve been to Vegas more than 50 times since 1979. My advice is if you want real good food at decent prices there, go where the locals go, off the strip.

[@Jaycation]

agreed!

[@JohnnyVegas777]

OK but what if you are from Europe and don't have a car plus also don't want to go off the strip? Where are the best cheap eats? Does anyone know any?

[@mreppen1]

@@JohnnyVegas777 their are lots of good choices 1 mile off the strip. Take a cab or Uber.

[@JohnnyVegas777]

@mreppen1 So by the time I've paid for a taxi there and back its cost the same. Doesn't seem worth it to me!

[@mreppen1]

@@JohnnyVegas777 perhaps. I drive there usually and stay pretty much off strip.

Raising Cane’s in one of my favorites. We usually go south on Las Vegas Blvd and go to that one (of course if you have a car available) it’s really good. I can’t do the sauce, but I always have to have the Louisiana hot sauce!

Louisiana hot sauce is my go to!

[@yvonneacosta2539]

Great to see the 'Cation family! Fav place to have breakfast is Mon Ami Gabi. Yes, you need to try the Beef Wellington and the sticky toffee pudding at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant. So good. The Carlos Bakery cake slice from the vending machines is pretty good. I let them stand about 15 to 30 minutes before eating. BTW - "Twenty bucks is twenty bucks" 🤣

Hey Jay I’m a big fan of Mon Ami Gabi . I’ve eaten there for brunch and dinner several times and it’s always awesome . The jury is still out on Gordon Ramsay restaurants. I had a horrible experience at Gordon Ramsay Pub at Caesar’s. The food was cold and service horrendous. I am giving him another try as I have a reservation for Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris in May . Thankfully I’ll be using my $100 Diamond celebration reward to help soften the blow of the bill lol . Cool video sir 😎😎😎

ohhh so do you get that $100 diamond celebration after a year?

Unpopular opinion but I think Mon Ami Gabi is overrated. Service is fine. The food is nothing special. If you go, it's definitely for the ambience and views of the Bellagio fountains. The last time I went, I saw a cockroach crawling around the floor, which is normal for Vegas in the summer, but it killed the vibe.

[@Jaycation]

kinda like french food... can be overrated a lot of the time! haha

Anything with a celebrity name on it, unless they are there I just can't jump on the hype train. I have always wondered how much actual input these chefs have on menu and quality control. I know it isn't on your list, but being a Californian, In Nout for sure is over rated.. but the food is a good alternative to typical fast food but nothing I would stand in line for.

[@IsaPodrasky]

Thanks for some of your recommendations. Maybe someday I might want to eat at Gordon Ramsey’s (but not on this trip or the next one). I still have to look up places to eat on the Strip and Fremont area (since this upcoming trip is going to be my first time visiting Las Vegas ever, I want to stay in the main tourist areas; I’m not ready to go off strip yet). I must say, your Dad is definitely a true American. We had a friend who visited the real Paris, and after a few days of eating croissants, she went to eat at McDonald’s (she also likes Chef Boyarde). For me, I have been to the real Paris before (I like the real Paris). Two things that the real Paris has that I want to do is see Jim Morrison’s grave (I did that years ago) and (I never did this before, but I REALLY want to) see the Catacombs of Paris (you get to be underground with a few million skeletons). But anyway, thank you for the recommendation of Gordon Ramsey’s and the Cake Boss vending machine (the Cake Boss thing, now that’s what I’m doing this trip). Strange question, but have you ever visited New York (the real one) before? If you’re looking for places to eat, don’t eat at Times Square (the food is overpriced and overrated). The Occulus at One World Trade Center has some good food options (try Eataly there). Another place to eat would be around Central Park (some good organic restaurants there) and at/nearby the High Line and Chelsea Market. Another way to find good places to eat and things to see is just by wandering around the city (you won’t believe how much fun that is!) But anyway, I really love your videos about Las Vegas (video recommendations like this always make any type of vacation better).

[@Jaycation]

Thanks! Check out Oscar's Steakhouse at Fremont if u get a chance. I've been to NYC. Have a handful of videos from there as well!

@@Jaycation Why thank you. By the way, if your Dad just happens to like the Las Vegas Paris over the real one, I actually respect his decision (plus, on my first trip to Las Vegas this year, I’m going to visit the Paris Resort, and much later on this year, the real Paris too!)
