  • Over-the-top mega-club / restaurant in mezzanine over the casino at the Venetian. The dinner food was better than good, it was borderline inspired, which is shocking considering it was after 11 on a Friday night, with several hundred people in utter mayhem crowd control lines out front. Sea bass, yum. Filet, pork appetizers, grilled prawns, wow. Great bottle of sake. Shabu shabu, amazing but it's a good thing I know how this works because they didn't bother to explain or do the Japanese full service thing where they make your end-soup for you. Decor was extensive, expensive, and strong. Both the dining room and the club above are vast, dark, multi-leveled, dramatically lit. The dining room has huge, color saturated artistic photographs of Tibetan monks and other ascetics -- a little jarring considering the excesses below. There's a koi pond, a wall (say, 50 X 20 feet) decorated with some kind of antique clay pipes, each in a cubby hole with a pin light. Tended bathroom. Service was confident and professional, dramatically good looking waitstaff (ours seemed to be in African garb) but completely overwhelmed by the crowd. Our meal came 2 hours after our reservation, but it's that kind of place. After dinner we talked our way into one of the many VIP area upstairs. Don't remember much about the music, some kind of mashing from the 80s, which is all the rage among club goers who aren't really partiers. There was a big tub full of flower petals and a mostly naked Japanese-ish girl making bath motions. Other assorted attractions. Again, very dark. Porn stars and their entourages were spending a lot of money on bottles, Johnny Walker Blue, etc. Bar prices are quite reasonable, far lower than similar Vegas or New York clubs -- $6 or $8 for well or wine (yes, they have Syrah, Savignon Blanc, etc, not just white and red), $9 or $10 for signature drinks. But it all added up to $135 a person anyway. All this took me away from a very important business meeting, which my handlers told me I was too tipsy to attend. So I have to say it wasn't worth it. I wouldn't go back but I probably will.
