1.Bavette's, Park Mgm
156 people recommend, 6 warn against itvia r/LasVegas, r/vegas
Bavette's at Park MGM draws broad support for its food and atmosphere. The burger is repeatedly recommended, while diners also single out the chocolate pie and ribeye. Two commenters find the thick bacon overwhelms the burger, and one dislikes the close spacing of the tables. Cost divides opinion: some regard the meal as expensive but worthwhile, while another finds it affordable. The steakhouse has much stronger support than dissent, without being universally loved.

Places to visit
Las Vegas, as people tell it: a concert at the Sphere for the sound, the Mob Museum, which turns out better than expected, the trippy Omega Mart, vintage games at the Pinball Hall of Fame, the Neon Museum at sunset or after dark, and the Bellagio fountain show at night with the conservatory's garden displays. The Sphere's film alone gets a split verdict.
