| - When the temperature is still hovering in the 90s when you arrive in Vegas after midnight, a refreshing, cold drink is more than welcome, especially at a decent place like this.
I didn't feel like venturing too far from my hotel, but was glad I walked the couple of blocks down to here within the Margaritaville Casino. First off, the bartender definitely had the "wow" flair factor going with his precise bottle spinning and cup tossing. Normally I would find that a bit cheesy, but I have to admit, he was accurate, impressive and personable.
I ordered their signature, yet strong 5 O'Clock Somewhere boat drink (151 rum), which definitely countered the fatigue and jet lag of getting into town from the East Coast. I also tried the "Zombie," another fruity and strong concoction that was also delicious. Of course they were not cheap, but then again, nothing is in this town.
Overall, not too shabby for my first stop along the Strip. 3.5 Stars.
