    Ahh, I see now, I was looking at best dining, so what's the difference:huh:
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    Hey, thanks for this - have never seen it before!

    Wynn (& Encore) trounced Bellagio then!

    One to completely disagree with personally - WORST MEAT @ Ellis Island - Nah!! I loved it - roll on Ellis Island!! - by the way – I polished off my plate of food! (below)

    One overlooked also The Orleans - for outstanding value off-strip.

    If by MAG you mean Mon Ami Gabi - It won the best restaurant didn’t it?
    (Though I may be confusing Readers choice with Editors choice)

    Great post!

    Totally agree about Ellis Island vote. Maybe some people don't want to be thought of as eating BBQ at the place, but you try and get a seating, if you are not in the first wave at 4pm then you have a looooong wait in front of you. I just love their ribs, never tasted more tender anywhere.

    Latest Restaurant.com offer HERE

    80% off Code is BONUS
    I see MB getting in on the act. Bought $25 for Raffles, $25 for Hawaiian Tropic Zone, and $25 for Origin India. The last one we might not bother with, never had a good Indian meal yet outside of the U.K. but heard that Origin India is owned by a guy from London. Reading reviews on TA it gets pretty good write-ups except from the one person from the U.K. that posted, and I would put more trust in 1 U.K. reviewer of Indian food than 10 American ones.
    Wanted Austins Steakhouse but sold out

    Ferf and her husband like Origin India too. We have another cert for our next trip.

    Origin India is AWESOME...seriously. It's not cheap and they do add a tip onto the bill (I think 20%) if you use the voucher...but it's great.

    OK, wait - I am American (and so are you) but I never had Indian food until I came here...so maybe my review counts as a review from the UK? :)

    THANK YOU STEFF!

    Now I'm starving and rib deprived. :(

    sorry if I sound stupid do you have to choose which restaurant you want to use the voucher at before you buy or are they valid for a range of different ones?

    Not sure how it compares to other offers floating about that may be available for Wynn...but we received one today (have now reshuffled our hotels around again - 3 nights at Encore for $297 and $150 freeplay - couldn't pass it up).

    We can send invites to others if they want them for the following deal- dates through May...pm me your email address if interested. I did look to see if I could find the offer online (offer code is SPRSEV but doesn't work if you put it in online - have to call to book) but couldn't see it.

    Enjoy a Wynn Resort Room for three nights and
    receive $25 RESORTCREDIT.
    $119/night Sunday through Thursday
    $189/night Friday and Saturday

    Again, not sure how it compares to offers out there already so apologies if it's not that great.

    You have to buy the certificate for the specific restaurant of your choice - I don't know of any that are good at multiple restaurants (even multiple locations in the same chain have their own vouchers). And you don't sound stupid. :)
