Okay, so @arthulia and @hueving, is it "good restaurants" or "crappy, over-priced food"? Never been there, but could somewhat imagine either scenario. Actually I could imagine multiple possibilities for each:
"good restaurants": (1) lots of top-tier cooks go there because money and it's cheap because Vegas, or (2) lots of off-strip places with good chefs trying to make it big.
"crappy, overpriced food": (1) Wolfgang Puck etc, or (2) Even off-strip food is bad and expensive because they can't afford water.
Because Vegas is a massive tourist destination where you are guaranteed to have a deep market of people eating out every day of the week, it attracts tons of restaurants so you do need to do a little research. Picking a random one will likely get you overpriced 'meh'.
There are lots of high-end restaurants, because every celebrity chef in America seems to open an outpost there. But if you're familiar with the originals, the Vegas versions tend to be overpriced tourist versions with limited menus. There are some great restaurants to be sure, but it's kind of a dice roll.
We've gone off the strip for sushi, Korean bbq, Thai, and Ethiopian and had good luck; I don't know enough about greater Las Vegas to judge it. But the strip is bad.
"good restaurants": (1) lots of top-tier cooks go there because money and it's cheap because Vegas, or (2) lots of off-strip places with good chefs trying to make it big.
"crappy, overpriced food": (1) Wolfgang Puck etc, or (2) Even off-strip food is bad and expensive because they can't afford water.
So in reality which is it?
