I have eaten at the Top of The World before and your review is perfect. This is why I love your channel, you don't sugar coat anything. Keep up the great work.
Congratulations on the engagement! I’ve always wondered what it is like to eat there, gorgeous views, but yeah, It’s pricey. Really appreciate the review of the food as well.
I’m so glad to see someone else’s take on this restaurant. My best friend and I were out in Vegas in 2022 and we paid for the same exact seating location and we could’ve just done that, had drinks and dessert. My food was subpar. I had a seafood pasta. The seafood was rubbery, the pasta was undercooked. I definitely could’ve saved my money, went to Nachodaddy and tried to go to the top of the Las Vegas Eiffel Tower. Lol
It's not in the best area, but I love the Strat. I wish they would promote it more for the observatory and for the restaurant. The Strat is a must visit for first-time Vegas tourists for the view alone. FYI you can go to the observatory level for free to enjoy the great views.
The last time I ate at this restaurant was way back in 2017, I was with my ex at the time. We didn't have to pay to sit by the windows. We requested a table by the windows and that's it. I agree with you. The foods were average at best. It's not worth the high price.
Great review! Went here back in August 2010 for dinner and loved every moment of it! It was worth the price. The charging extra for special seating for reservations must be new as I don't remember that.
Great Video. I need to do a solo dinner by myself again and try the STRAT. Spending $300ish for 2 people is normal like you said. I finally tried TBone at Red Rock Casino and had the 8oz A5 Wagyu.
I tried this restaurant last month September 2024 and the food was great! The prime ribeye was very tasty! and juicy ordered it Medium and also ordered the Lobster tail. Both were really good but the steak was delicious I must add. I also ordered the lobster Mac n cheese and honestly it was delicious it wasn’t burnt like the one you had. I do recommend it! I really enjoyed this place we had a great experience. I did pay an extra $50 for window seat plus an extra $20 for rose pedals which was a nice touch if your in a date. For an upscale restaurant the price was as expected, our bill was $396 including tax plus the extra $70 I paid plus $70 for tip. I would definitely come back again the views were amazing inside and on the observation deck.
$25 'per person' for the view is a bit much. I think $25 per table is fair. You bring a party of 6 and you're already in somewhat deep, and you haven't even had a glass of water yet :) Nice video and thank you for sharing!
I was there a few years before Covid and didn’t have to pay $25 for the window view. My party of 9 ordered the Chef’s menu with multiple courses and dessert. I enjoyed it. No so much the first time I was there many years ago.
I've been here a couple of times. The food, in my opinion, is subpar compared to other restaurants like Bavettes, Herbs and Rye, and Barry's. The service at the restaurant has always been great. I had to teach their bartender how to make a sazerac though. Their cocktails aren't that good. You really are paying for the view. For those who want to get a nice view of Vegas, I'd recommend Legacy Bar at Circa or Sky Bar at Waldorf Astoria.
hello must try!! thanks for the video. so the wifey and i do the strat top of the world every year. yes the $50 reservation bites the big one, but the food is much better than you think it is. its much better than a 4 mr picky!! lol cheers
Looking sharp George and impressed you're still not drinking, well done sir👏. Not drinking during a meal like this can be a great hack to keep your bill under better control, especially since some of these drinks can easily be in the $20+ each category.
My girlfriend and I had the same seating and experience back and Thanksgiving in 2010. Except we didn't have to pay for reservations. The Service was outstanding though. I like the lounge one level up I think it's worth it to go there for just for that.
It's funny the ghetto strat has such a strict dress code, they wouldn't let me in with my football jersey on a Sunday but the Old Homestead at Ceasars let me in after saying jerseys are ok on Sundays lol
Anyway: I'm going to try this restaurant for the first time when I stay at the STRAT the day after EDC next month. I simply feel a stay at the STRAT is incomplete without giving Top Of The World and 108 Lounge a go, so it's on. 😊 I'm not expecting the food to blow me away, but like you said it's about the experience above all else, and there's no denying the experience is pretty much unrivaled there.
You didn't used to have to pay extra to sit by the window. That happened during COVID. It's ridiculous that they ever did it and more offensive that they never removed it. I used to love going there but lately the only good thing is the lobster bisque... That is a must try! Everything else is underwhelming.
That's expensive for where I'm from for sure. Best steak I ever had was in a Texas steal house for abt $30 for the whole plate. But then, we do tend to grow our own beef here so I guess that can definitely help the pricing. We've got reservations here with friends in July and I didn't know abt the fee. We're a party of 8 and they said they cld only seat 7 together so I told my bff to put hubs and I on our own so she can eat with her daughter the birthday girl and family together. I'll have to make sure to pay her for our seating! Hopefully the steak won't be super bland when we go since it's a holiday weekend also.
Here I thought that resort fees are a big ripoff but I was proven wrong, To charge a reservation fee of $25 per person & then not credit it to your food bill is the greediest cash grab yet. Then the quality of food is mediocre is another insult. The absolute greed of the casinos never cease to amaze me.
Cool view, stinks the food wasn't that great. The $50 should definitely go towards your dinner. I've been binge watching the channel. Congrats on the engagement!
Eiffel Tower restaurant has the same reservation fee's. Ate there 2 months ago, truthfully it was not worth the price. Was at the strat viewing area with the family a couple of weeks ago, and can say that view is something else.
Thanks for the review Jorge, I'll make sure to come here only for the view's and avoid the food, talk about lame that they can't do any better with the cuisine perhaps they should hire Marco Pierre White he'll whip this restaurant into shape real fast LOL!!! 😋😋😋 oh, and that Mexican blonde joke was on point, LOL!!!😆😆😆😆
Why are you going there when it is light outside? Only go to Top of the World at nighttime plus the reservation charges are optional. When I made my reservation I didn't do any of the charges and was still seated next to the window on the rotating floor. Plus you get free access to the observation deck on the Strat if you eat there which is awesome. This restaurant is the only thing worth doing at the Strat in my opinion.
I miss the old days when they let you up to bar 107 for free during happy hour (4pm-7pm) and had buy one get one martinis. Once they started charging I believe like $34 just to get to the observation deck, nah. Never been back. Shame that Vegas is just full of corporate greed these days.
Thank you for another great honest video! It seems like businesses are charging for any little thing that used to be free! That’s absurd 😤 I wouldn’t be surprised if they charge for toilet paper to wipe your ass lol 🤣 Nonetheless that dessert looked amazing 😍 Vegas just isn’t the same like the old days 😞
The reason why they charge the $25 per person for a window seat is because too many people were going up to Top Of The World JUST to get drinks: which barred people who wanted to dine and enjoy the view from being able to do so. So in all honesty I think they're justified in charging for the guaranteed window seat.
Years ago this was pretty good. The quality has declined drastically. I still can’t believe people still say the Golden Steer is great. Nope there also imo.
I have eaten at the Top of The World before and your review is perfect. This is why I love your channel, you don't sugar coat anything. Keep up the great work.
You got it brother!!
Congrats on the engagement bro!
Thanks G!
My advice is to get a prenuptial agreement and listen to Tom Leykis.
Congratulations on the engagement! I’ve always wondered what it is like to eat there, gorgeous views, but yeah, It’s pricey. Really appreciate the review of the food as well.

You have THE BEST Vegas review channel. Also, congratulations to you and your lovely lady on the engagement. She's a lucky woman!!!
Thanks so much Tomb!!
Love ur honest reviews- Bravo!!

Good point! Thank you!
My wife and I went there for dinner a few years back and we spent 350 total for our dinner. Wasn’t too bad and view was amazing.
Literally once in a lifetime experience lol
You are 100 percent right they should reduce the $50 of your bill great video 👍👍👍
Rightt?
I ate here! I felt dizzy while eating because of the rotating floor. Expensive and small portions, but the butter was delicious lol
Yes that cake was elite
Coming here after my wedding so nice to see the restaurant property 😊
Fiance? What have I missed? Congratulations brother!
Thank you man!!
What’s up from Texas brother, another great review. Appreciate the honesty. Do you recommend Oscar’s at the plaza over this?
Congrats on the engagement bro! Great video as always.
A TRUE dining adventure. Thanks bro for the video
Daaaaamn!! You scored big time! CONGRATS on the engagement. She's lovely. Does she know how lucky she is??? 🤔
Double score! Thank you!
Always learn something new from you. Great video brother.
I appreciate that
Congratulations on your engagement Jorge! You both look beautiful. 🤗😃
Congratulations to you both! What a gorgeous couple, Latino Heat! 🔥🔥🎉
Went there about a year ago, the experience and views were great but the food was just okay though.
Excellent Video! I haven't eaten there in over 20 years!
Great video! Can you access the rooftop bar if you didn’t eat at the restaurant ? Or is it exclusively after dinner? Thanks keep up the good work
Yes but you have to pay for the elevator ride essentially
Congratulations! Have an amazing weekend.
Congratulations on your engagement!! 🎉
Thank youuu!
I was there a few years before Covid and didn’t have to pay $25 for the window view. My party of 9 ordered the Chef’s menu with multiple courses and dessert. I enjoyed it. No so much the first time I was there many years ago.
It's pretty cool if you scrub through the video really fast you can see the restaurant spinning

You should eat at other steakhouses! Much better food in Vegas i think!
I stayed at the Strat 10 years ago but didn't try this restaurant. After your review I'm glad we skipped it. Tourist trap. 😮
Yup sorta
Great video as usual, Jorge! Hope to see another live stream soon!
Tomorrow!!
OMG! Charging to make a reservation. Hold me back!
Looking sharp George and impressed you're still not drinking, well done sir👏.
Not drinking during a meal like this can be a great hack to keep your bill under better control, especially since some of these drinks can easily be in the $20+ each category.
00:55 I like how the omit the Tokyo Skytree on that wall since it's 2,080 feet high. 😂😂😂
They omitted everything taller than themselves. There are several more.
truuue
My girlfriend and I had the same seating and experience back and Thanksgiving in 2010. Except we didn't have to pay for reservations.
The Service was outstanding though.
I like the lounge one level up I think it's worth it to go there for just for that.
thanks for sharing. will continue to avoid the strat on future trips unless atomic golf pulls me in
You bet
It's funny the ghetto strat has such a strict dress code, they wouldn't let me in with my football jersey on a Sunday but the Old Homestead at Ceasars let me in after saying jerseys are ok on Sundays lol
That price is not bad at all. I’ve paid double here in Seattle with NO view. I will totally check this place out next time I’m in town.
Damn Seattle rinsed you
Congratulations on your engagement!

100% agree with your take. If you got the money to pay for it. Do it once.
Great video. You both look great ❤
Thank you! 🤗
It’s hot Jorge!!! Too many layers on! 😋
😂
Looks like you go for the experience without the expectation of a great meal
Yeah that's what I'm saying
Congratulations on your engagement bro

I've been up there a few times. I usually go 30 minutes before sunset.
That's what I tried to time

If people pay, there's a reason
@@Vegas-Must-TryBecause they're idiots who want to impress people. 😂
The food is okay but drinks are great. But the views are worth it.
Love the video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Congratulations to you both 🎊 🎉
Thank you!!
I used to take customers there when attending the International Telemetry Conference. I never got out of the door less than $600.
Congrats jorge! She's pretty ❤
Thank you friend!
Cool view, stinks the food wasn't that great. The $50 should definitely go towards your dinner. I've been binge watching the channel. Congrats on the engagement!

Top of World restaurant is in top 5 highest grossing restaurant in all United States.
Woww i didn't know that
Oh snap. The footage didn't look that sketchy of that mall you go through on the way up. Did they renovate or are you just a genius videographer?
I thought it was pretty sketchy how empty it is haha
Thanks for the 411 on this restaurant 👍
been there. Once is good
Is there value in doing the $15 reservation instead? Or is the $25 one the only way to go
Your fiancée is so pretty! I always enjoy your videos! 👍
If the food was actually good they'd make a killing with this place. Instead it's selling itself entirely off the seating view.
Having a minimum to spend there is nasty work especially if you're seeing reviews online saying the food is average.
Yeah I'd look else where if food is priority
Thank You
Looks beautiful
It was!
It’s worth everything
At least once right?
25 for the table is reasonable. Not per person.
That steak looked like they picked it up at ShopRite and grilled it that morning and then microwaved it
😂😂😂
Thanks for the review Jorge, I'll make sure to come here only for the view's and avoid the food, talk about lame that they can't do any better with the cuisine perhaps they should hire Marco Pierre White he'll whip this restaurant into shape real fast LOL!!! 😋😋😋 oh, and that Mexican blonde joke was on point, LOL!!!😆😆😆😆

Long gone my friend
congrats playboy
As long as the food is good I would definitely spend $25 for a spin❤
Upcharging for a better view 😮; I guess price gouging is a way of life in Vegas ,Disney etc
How long do they allow you to eat the meal ?
We were there probably 2 hrs.
@@Vegas-Must-Try Then that was a bargain !....amazed they do not put ticking time clocks on the window tables
Thank you for another great honest video! It seems like businesses are charging for any little thing that used to be free! That’s absurd 😤 I wouldn’t be surprised if they charge for toilet paper to wipe your ass lol 🤣

So in all honesty I think they're justified in charging for the guaranteed window seat.
Surprised they would even serve mac and cheese at a place like that 😮
Beautiful place but not returning for 25 per person/ table... been there before the 25 dollars charge!
Where is there a comparable view?
Legacy
Can I just buy drink or two and take some pics?
Damn ya'll a cute couple. Your baby gonna have to be a model 😅
Bellagio charges extra for patio seating for the fountains now. Bummer
At which restaurant?
@@Vegas-Must-Tryall of them. I booked YellowTail in the MGM app for May 3 and to reserve it’s $125 per person for guaranteed patio seating
Way too many restrictions, for subpar food, great view but you can get that at your hotel room most times.
Agreed
Lol love how they only list towers smaller than theirs in comparison...
Punching down
What other restaurants do you think are better with the same view? Will be there next week!!
Anywhere at Bellagio the fountain view
Years ago this was pretty good. The quality has declined drastically. I still can’t believe people still say the Golden Steer is great. Nope there also imo.
FIANCÉ??!! Congrats
