| - The Baccarat Bar isn't so much a bar as a small, upscale lounge area, located off the high limit Baccarat tables, just next to the Petrossian Bar. If you're walking through the casino and blink, you'll miss it, but it's worth stop if you want a break from the tables and are in the mood for a cigar or a martini.
I've been coming here since the hotel opened and what brings me back is the live music; If you're looking for some live Jazz, this is one of the few places left in Vegas that offers it. They usually have a trio or quartet that includes a capable pianist and upright bass player, and they'll sooth you with some classic Jazz standards while you sip an artisan martini or two. The performers arrive at 4:15pm and stick around to well past midnight, so you can stop by pretty much anytime in the evening and hear some great music.
Note that I think it's drinks only here, so if you're hungry for something other than crisps you'll probably want to look elsewhere. But if you're in the mood for some live Jazz and an intimate, swanky vibe, this is the place.
One of my favorite music spots in Vegas, especially when I'm staying at the hotel. Highly recommended.
