    Thanks for the info DVW. Overpriced food, overpriced entertainment, resort fees, higher gambling limits, parking fees, overpriced water/drinks. No city comes close to the overpriced, over hyped mediocrity that is Las Vegas.
    Las Vegas is the ultimate tourist trap. lol I'll be back in April and again in May : )

    That pork belly bowl was $9 at Roy Choi's old spot Chego in Chinatown DTLA. Is the MGM really worth a almost 150% jump in price? Doubt it...

    Great review, thanks as always!
    I was going to try it when I was staying at Nomad over NYE, but never got around to it. Think I'll definitely try to stop in when I'm back at Nomad for UFC in July.
    I tend not to get as amped up as many about the prices, as I think you're getting that anywhere on the strip, just for the convenience.

    Not just Roy's...yes, the STRIP is really getting crazy with the quality, quantity, and prices... the casinos feel that they do not need to draw the people with fair prices for food or buffets anymore. Pre-pandemic VEGAS is gone for us, foodies... look off the strip for some great prices and quality guys. Thanks for the videos!

    Looks like Vegas is pricing itself out of business. I live here and I'm not paying those kinds of prices. After paying for parking, it's just not worth it for locals.

    maybe im old but the hubby and i never like nightclub/hip hop/rap playing while eating. we love good music, all kinds but not what is playing there. just my 2 cents. and its everywhere now days, even in va (usa) in some fast food places to nice sit down restaurants. it makes you rush and you cant really hear each other.

    Woah prices were high but I still kinda wanna try it. I’m a huge fan of hamachi so I might like the Aguachiles. And I’m into the Crispy Rock Shrimp too. Oh I heard the have like a tasting menu for $69 per person so that might be a better deal. Thanks for the review!👍🏻😃

    Greetings from Torrance! I love how both of you try to be so positive, but it looked like you were both a little disappointed. I'm sure the food tasted good, but for the price, I think you expected better or at least more. The look on Leah's face was heart breaking :( I think anyone not from LA might be impressed, but anyone from LA would be disappointed. Still, great job from both of as always! Thanks again!

    I went to best friend one time. A couple friends just arrived at Aria while I was staying at Park MGM. I had a quick 30 minute poker session at Aria...doubled up at 1/3 hold'em. Spent it on a unsatisfactory lunch at Best Friend. Roy is bringing extra LA inflation to Las Vegas. Your review was spot on. It's nothing special and your score was admittedly generous.
