    We enjoyed our opportunity to check out the 1923 Prohibition Bar in The Venetian. It was veey quiet and nearly empty when we visited on a Monday afternoon, so we missed out on some of the atmosphere. Drinks were good but a little spendy.

    This is one of my favorite bars in Vegas. Super cozy and the venue is beautiful. Sometimes they have shows. They also serve snacks and the bacon looks super cool. Staff is super friendly and at times they will even sing! Last time we went, there was live music and a burlesque show.

    An interesting place. Always fun trying to figure out how to get in. It was late afternoon and slow along with the service. We just grabbed a drink to see how we liked the place. The inside is lovely, but we got bored and left.

    The newest location of the Prohibition Bar was very nice inside! I LOVED the decor, and the secluded room if you don't care to watch the band and dancer. That being said, if you do go to watch the show, check the site lines! We were seated way in the back by the restroom, and could only see the dancer before she went through the curtains. After that, we had no idea what was happening. As for the cover band, the were really good, but it's definitely a different vibe compared to the piano player and amazing singer (who is also a waitress at the bar) at the original location in Mandalay Bay. They (at the new location) asked if anyone liked country music, and proceeded to play five or six country songs in a row! I thought this place was supposed to have NOLA music? Other than that, the place was great! The hostess and waitresses were very friendly and attentive, and the drinks were great as usual. I'd definitely go again, but I would want to know what to expect from the band before deciding.

    1923 Prohibition Bar inside the Venetian is a fun, high energy nightlife bar if you're looking for something more lively than a traditional lounge. Saturday nights feature a two-part entertainment lineup that keeps the night interesting without needing to hop venues. The evening starts with The Docksiders, a Yacht Rock tribute band playing smooth, nostalgic hits from the '70s and '80s upbeat, familiar, and easy to enjoy. After their set, a second live band takes over, and this is when the burlesque performances begin, with a dancer appearing about every 30 minutes throughout the second act. The combination creates a classic speakeasy vibe with a playful "NOLA Nights" feel, adding energy and visual interest to the night. We also really enjoyed the Oddity Room, which is more secluded and closed off, making it feel intimate and a bit exclusive. It's perfect if you want a quieter space to hang out, just keep in mind that you'll need to step out into the main room if you want to watch the entertainers, since performances don't happen inside the Oddity Room. Overall, it's a great spot for variety, atmosphere, and live entertainment all in one place. Super lively, fun, and an excellent nightlife option inside the Venetian.

    Great speakeasy inside the Venetian, look for the 1923 Prohibition Bar signs. Hint: once you find it take the elevator up and look at my pictures for the entrances. There's the main speakeasy that's very lively and loud. Then there's the voodoo underground area that's more intimate. Both are great, just matter of preference. They were super busy so there was a bit of a wait for someone to take our order and to get our drinks. The wait was however worth it. Our group ordered the manhattan, barrel aged old fashioned, campfire and a rum drink. All were well made.

    $5 drinks in Vegas? I honestly thought it was a scam. I walked up to ask about the options and ended up ordering a classic frozen margarita with rum. So good, and to my surprise, both drinks were not watered down at all. The staff was friendly and easy to talk to, even asking about my day. This is the perfect spot to pregame before a show or event on the Strip. Since it's located at the Venetian, I grabbed my drink and watched the gondola performers sing. Such a fun and affordable Vegas experience.

    Cliff Notes Price Range: $$ Parking: Valet Perk: Unique drinks Non-Perk: Most chairs and booths are not comfy Ambiance: Bar with a fun twist Dress: Smart Casual Noise: Low Temperature: Perfect Recommend: 100% Response Time: N/A Professionalism: On point Date: 1/18/2026 Dissertation: This place is cool in that "don't tell anyone or it'll get crowded" kind of way. I ordered the Cookie Monster, and it was so good I immediately ordered another... and then stuck with that excellent decision throughout the evening. My husband ordered the Camp Fire and loved it. I tried it and... not for me. But that's on my taste buds, I don't like bourbon, and the drink definitely delivered what it promised. Only downside: the seating. The chairs aren't very comfortable, some of the tall tables were wobbly enough to make me hover over my drink all night, and the booth footrests are basically useless because they are too low. We actually had to move because my back immediately disagreed with our first sitting choice. Nikki was the hostess with the mostest and made sure we were taken care of the entire time, which made a big difference. I'd still go back... just aiming for a better seat next time and a nonwobbly table. Would 100% go back...

    Love because most drinks are all whiskey and bourbon ....great vibe in Venetian Hotel. Go through the book case....

    A hidden speakeasy. Go to the elevator and press 2m you'll see a frame with a door handle and gentleman is waiting. As we walked in there was music playing but a ticketed event they proceeded to have us enter another room which looked very demonic and New Orleans with a voodoo feel to it. Maybe not my kind of decor. Our waitress didn't seem too welcoming or smiley the experience wasn't what I expected and the drinks were mediocre we also ordered chilled shots and she did not chill our tequila. Wouldn't come back

    The hunt for the bar was harder than expected. Here's a clue: Find the shoe store best known for its D'lites, in the Grand Canals, and enter into a moody, proper speakeasy vibe-infused cocktail bar. Here's another clue: Their old-fashioned are delicious and so are the sours. Here's another, another clue: The staff are very welcoming and well informed about restaurants and other places to try while you're in Vegas.

    This is a hidden bar at the Venetian Las Vegas that is just a cool thing to experience. They have live music & even a dancer! Drinks were good & average price, about $20 a drink. Service was ok not great. But will be back

    Mike M.

    Great speakeasy at the Venetian. It's upstairs in the canal shops. Stop in for a drink and enjoy the music.

    Italian Coffee - it's eating! Bit too sweet and just the right kick.

All I remember was going through the casino areas of Paris Hotel, and then going down one floor to the Horseshoe area to reach this bar just minutes before closing on a Friday close to midnight. I quickly grabbed a seat at the bar area and perused the menu, which has a ton of drinks, beers, wines, mocktails and even snacks. Even when close to closing time, patrons filled up all the bar seating which isn't a lot; most seating was couches and tables near the knickknacks. I got myself the Bee's Knees, which is cranberry and pineapple juice, apple puree, cinnamon fire syrup and some ginger beer according to their menu just outside the front entrance. I can only describe the taste as a sweetened fruit juice with a ton of fizz from the ginger beer, and the pineapple and apple came out on top for overpowering the drink overall. Some mint leaves and a slice of grapefruit were added in, and the mint leaves made this drink feel more like a special cocktail. This and other mocktails is $13 before tax, so pretty high price especially when considering their other alcoholic drinks are not that much higher than that... I actually still loved my drink, though! It was a nice wrap-up for my last day in Vegas and I'm curious now to look a lot more carefully at the stuff on the walls if I ever come here again!

Sure, it is known; however, it was surprisingly not that busy for a Friday. We were seated at a shell like booth and this space between the back side of the Players Club and the Cash cage, is a lovely and elegant place. Is it expensive? yes. Most other fine establishments are also expensive in Vegas. It is what it has become. Is that good? Probably not; however, it does give you the opportunity to experience something unique and special. Although we had one server, the servers worked very well together throughout our 90 minutes here and really team assisted with each other. Between the two of us, we had three drinks. You can page through the very detailed menu, and I decided to have the Passion's Serenade drink, which was a glass partially frozen with a coconut and passionfruit puree and then also had some chocolate rum, vanilla and fresno chili. It was a delicious drink, and actually was a great "sit back and wait" drink, because it took a while for the frozen portion to melt. The experience comes with some complimentary bar snacks and then some complimentary mini jello shots on the way out. The check is presented in an exquisite "Vault" Type of book. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would return again in the future. Expect drink prices to range from about $30 to $70, with some even higher for the "market price" drinks.
