There is a full bar with bottle service, of course, by pretty ladies who are ever at the ready to serve you and classic arcade games are far as the eye can see. Our second night in Vegas ended here with a booth reservation and bottle service for my birthday. I had contacted and set up everything with Lisa Mitchell, Director of VIP Services/Events. She was very professional and quick to answer any questions I had about my reservation. For $100 plus tax and gratuity, you get to choose Stoli or Stoli Flavors, Jack Daniels or Captain Morgan with mixers for your drinks. No waiting in line, no cover charge, 2 flat screen TVs, 2 gaming consoles, a cocktail waitress to help you with your drinks and a gaming expert to help you with your games. Sign me up! (NOTE: the total price ended up being around $150-170. I am assuming due to the size of our party of 7 they added an automatic 20-25% gratuity).
We arrived an hour late because dinner took longer than expected. We found cheap parking a half a block away. It was slow inside, 9/10 pm on a Thursday night. Now this is where the accolades stop for a bit. We get inside and nothing was set up for our table. We had to wait around with our thumbs up our bums while our gaming expert located and set everything up. I was irritated nothing was ready considering I called at 8 pm, our original reservation time, and spoke with someone over the phone that we would be late approximately one hour. It's not like Insert Coins was losing business by having a gaming booth unused, it wasn't busy!
After everyone was served our drinks we kept having issues with our SNES. I appreciated that our personal waitress, Shanalee, was quick to get our gaming expert over to help and kept everyone's drink full. The rest of the evening progressed smoothly and although I wasn't able to try out any of the arcade cabinets, I still had a great time. It became busier as the night wore on with the dance floor gettin' busy. When you weren't gaming it was fun to watch people showing over their dance moves or watching the anime that was playing on screens around the dance floor. Even the restrooms were decked out in Mr and Mrs. Pacman with attendants who carried gum, cigs, perfume and anything else your tipsy heart could want.
I would love to see one of these in LA or preferably in San Diego during Comic Con because Las Vegas is just a bit too far of a drive for a gaming night out.
