The Lobby Bar is a quick and easy spot to grab a cocktail or two before hitting the town. It's literally across from the Aria lobby (convenient) and super sleek with small cushions and bench style seating for your bum. If you've got a group of 3-5 there are some little nooks too.
Their cocktail menu is versatile and delicious. I'm partial to the Basil Grapefruit Martini. The glass is rimmed with tiny sugar crystals that looks like a tiny magical gnome placed each one there by hand.
I don't make it to the strip often, but this would be a nice spot to be seen with your ladies or a great (first/blind) date night spot. It's classy, accessible, and has a lot of exits if you need to bail.
Cheers!!
