| - One of my favorite MGM properties.
I haven't stayed at NYNY since 5 years ago, so I can't really say anything about the rooms, but I love this hotel for the feel and for the main public area and the restaurants!
First off, my favorite steakhouse anywhere is Gallahger's. It's is the same Gallahger's as the one in NY and when dining inside, it does feel like a NY steakhouse. It's not the fanciest, yes, but it is just good steak. There's a display fridge showing you how they dry age their beef and shows you that's exactly what they serve!
There's also plenty of other eateries that's legit. It's overpriced, especially for pizza, but having a pretty authentic NY pizza at 2am in the morning is awesome. Also others that's a little more "fast-food-ish" but they all have something to do with NY.
Lots of bars, such as the Irish pub/piano bar. It gets packed on the weekend and the crowd is a little older, but the pub does offer a good Guiness on draft. Probably due to the crowd and moving through kegs faster, it just tastes fresher, or maybe it is the psychological effect :P
One thing is that the casino floor is a little dark and a little random for me in terms of the placement but it's still "new" enough compared to some of the other hotels on the strip!
As a themed hotel, it does a pretty good job in presentation, albeit corny, but c'mon, can't expect real NY in Vegas!
