You can tell me I suck for loving the Grand Lux Cafe, but I don't care! Judge me all you want, my feelings will not change despite your negative stares and belittling words. I am a devoted follower! While staying at the Venetian this restaurant became my favorite stop every single day. Like Vegas, it's open 24 hours a day so whether it's breakfast, lunch, dinner or you're completely sloshed at 3 am, the Grand Lux will be there welcoming you with open arms.
If you've never been to the Grand Lux it is essentially an upgraded Cheesecake Factory with a slightly different menu. Same 471 page food and drink menu which takes a good 30 minutes to read through. My favorite thing to order is the pot roast with mashed potatoes as I like to pretend that June Cleaver is my mother and she's whipped me up a beautiful meal.
My last memory of the Grand Lux Cafe is actually the inability to remember eating there. I woke up in my hotel room after a crazy night of clubbing for my friend's bachelorette party and groaned out loud:
Me: "I'm soooo hungry! When are we going eat?"
My girlfriend: "How can you be so hungry? You ate so much at Grand Lux!"
Me: "We didn't eat at Grand Lux Cafe last night."
My girlfriend: "Uh yes we did, you had two strawberry waffles and a pot roast."
Me: "What?! And I don't remember a thing!" (Slaps hand to forehead)
Me: "Want to go there again for breakfast?"
My girlfriend: (Slaps hand to forehead)
