| - OK, so check this out. I know I have been long dormant with the Yelp reviews (bad girl, BAD GIRL!), so to make it up to ya'll, I am now embarking on a casino-by-casino tour of my new hometown of LV, NV, and will include reviews of each as I tour them. Now, these will not include room stays, but just schlepping around the premises - eating, drinking, and checking out anything that moves or doesn't move. Got it? OK, let's proceed...
Review #27:
happy 25th anniversary to The Mirage!; you gotta love the foliage, waterfalls, & lagoons - both outside and near the lobby; the giant aquarium behind the hotel check-in counter is also a nice touch; there are some seriously cool dining spots here - I especially like the sexy modern look of Japonais and Stack, located next to each other; there is a sprawling and classy conference room & event center area; I'm not even going to mention the outdoor volcano, since that is more for the tourists walking on The Strip; this is a classic 3.5 stars place, but I'll round up since The Mirage started all of the development of upscale Strip casinos, back in the day (1989); best craft beer bet = nothing outstanding, but BLT Burger has the best overall selection; the sports bar and Tom Colicchio's aren't bad either, but the best tip might be to buy a 22 oz. Samuel Adams bottle in the sundries store for less than $7.
