| - I was in Vegas and wanted to do something special for my special someone. I had read up on the Top of the World restaurant and thought between the time of year (winter), food and views, that this place would be ideal and romantic.
I had booked my reservation very easily through a website called Open Table via the Top of the World website link. However, I found a place in Vegas that sold discounted tickets and was so excited to take advantage of that. I was able to get 25% off of my entree's for the cost of only $3 per person. Basically I saved $34 for a $6 investment. Keep in mind that this offer is good but it's M-Th only and I did happen to go to the restaurant on a Monday night. The ticket place not only saved me money but also was abe to re-book my reservation for a more convenient time.
So the hotel itself is what I call...ghetto-fab, and it is not located in the best part of Vegas since it is in the Stratosphere. I would only take this experience down a notch because of the location.
We came dressed to impress (they do have a dress code), and we took a private elevator to the top of the Stratosphere to the restaurant entrance.
We got there a little earlier than our reservation time and took advantage of their lounge area.
The lounge had very ambient lighting and was surrounded by amazing night views of the city. The staff were friendly, and the drinks were well made.
When it came time for dinner, we decided on an appetizer and the Surf & Turf.
Everything was amazing. We received an assortment of breads and 3 different types of butter as our pre-appetizer. The butter didn't even taste like butter, it was very delicious!!! The steak cut like butter, the lobster was perfecty cooked, and our appetizer (thinly cut steak, capers, sauce), was so delicious.
We skipped dessert because I was very full from dinner and I hope to try some the next time we go.
We also had our pictures professionaly taken by a photographer who walks around. Prices were somewhat typical but she did a good job and I actually purchased some of the pictures.
The view was amazing and we found ourselves just staring at the city for periods of time.
It was very cold out (November) but we walked around on the inside and watched the crazy people do the Sky Jump off of that floor. Which is, by the way, something you get to see in the restaurant. People dropping off the top ads a different element to your dinner experience.
Overall, it was well worth it (especially after getting the discount coupon), and I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a nice place to wine and dine.
