    For those who are looking for some other nice restaurants in Vegas I can definitely reccommend The Cheesecake Factory in the Forum Shops. The food here was lovely and at a fair price, you have to try some of the pasta! We went back about 3 times during our trip to try different things.

    Needless to say they have about 60 different cheesecakes for dessert, and they even have little boxes to take it away in if you can't manage it there and then!

    :T :T :T :T long been a favorite among regular posters here. always packed whatever the night of the week we have gone. always good food at good prices in a nice place.

    if you don't want Cheesecake, i reccomend the hot apple dumplings with ice cream.
    Better in my pocket than theirs :rotfl:

    I also love Cheesecake Factory, but think I may slightly prefer Grand Lux Cafe at Venetian/Palazzo...same company owns both...if you like one, trying the other is a must....the first time we went to Grand Lux at Venetian I was astounded by the size of the place.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    We've never made it to either Cheesecake Factory or Grand Lux, but it has been on our To Do list forever. Hopefully we can tick one or both of them off when we go in May.

    May? Shame not April so we could meet up again. I think either of these restaurants are a great option - but so much food! Jamie ordered a salad as a starter at Cheesecake Factory the first time we went and it was like an entire field of lettuce on a plate...massive...lesson learned, have skipped starters since unless to have them as a main!

    My favourite in Vegas too (Grand Lux), also I believe they are open 24 hours so handy if you get a bit peckish late on.

    Assuming you can pick up flights off tinternet for £350, youre paying £50 a night for Venetian including the weekend.......bite their arm off before they change their mind. :) Although its called a luxury suite, its the bottom of the range there.......but still way ahead of all but a few hotels/rooms.

    We know what you mean, this was a 'small' salad starter from Cheesecake Factory:
