Good Eats in Vegas?

Alright folks...I have two nights in Vegas in March...where should I go? I am traveling with two friends for an event. Unfortunately, dinner is really the only meal we are going to be able to eat. We are going to be getting up too early and be too busy during the day to try breakfast or lunch. :(

When I was there last I ate at the Burger Barn (sooooo good...) and some Brazilian restuarant in Mandalay Bay and Bouchon in the Venetian (I think it was the Venetian...). I don't really have a budget, but my traveling companions will. Any suggestions that will allow me to eat something nice, but not make them feel uncomfortable. We will have a car so eating off strip is also an option.

Thank you!!!

      Dad and I ate at Emeril's Fish house a yearh ago and had an awesome experience. So last trip out we decided to have lunch there again. This time we left not full and felt ripped off. The food was just OK and the price for what we got screamed casino price rip off!

        THE place for your situation is Emeril's New Orleans Fish House at MGM. I went with a friend there, he is the fussiest eater you will ever see and hates 'fancy' places and he loved it. Hard not to, food is good, no snobbery at all, so your friends will like it but it will be good enough to fulfill your desire for a 'nice' dinner.

          If you can avoid the gunshots, assaults and "drive bys" you might try Alex at the Wynn or Picassos at the Bellagio. Then again you may not want to leave your hotel.

            The 2 best restaurants in Vegas are Rosemarys and Andres downtown,both off strip therefore cheaper.Google their names for websites and menus
