This is such a cool bar on property at the Rio. It's a very Brazilian vibe in here and just so cool. The lounge seating is absolutely beautiful. I just got a gin and tonic, but next time I come back here, definitely grabbing one of their tropical cocktails which looked so good. There was live entertainment when we were here, too. Such a cool spot. Would definitely come back here again!

A new development on our last visit was the new Lapa Lounge Bar. A large round bar between the…read morecasino floor and the front doors. Adhering to the Brazil vibe, it has a gold jaguar climbing the bar and a very chique vibe with pops of gold and patterned seat upholstery. And it's a perfectly convenient stop for a drink when meeting others in the lobby to leave for dinner. Bartender Christian is as friendly as all the staff at the Rio and took great care of us. The cocktail game is real and we had some excellent, beautiful drinks. There was a live singer some nights. (Lapa & Luckley's have happy hours a few days a week) Also, I don't know how often this happens, but while in the casino we were given a buy one get one coupon for drinks here! But be sure to tip on your total before the discount ;)

It's a small, intimate bar so the crowd control is great. Also, dress is strict but the staff was pretty good at taking a look & letting folks jow whikle they were on line. Once we got it, we loved the atmosphere! Great band. Wonderful bartenders, yummy drinks. Love the no phones policy, allowed everyone to actually enjoy the vibe. For Vegas, I'd say the prices were on par.

Wow this place BLEW US AWAY!!! We got in on Saturday night and walked into Bruno Mars performing!!…read more The vibe was so energetic and unique, I definitely think the no phone policy is what made it feel so special. We had so much fun we went back on Sunday night just expecting good energy and live music. We coincidentally made friends in line and the bouncer asked if we wanted a table that would allow us to cut to the front of the line. Minimum was $500 and there were 5 of us so we said yes. To our surprise Bruno came out again!!! No one ever knows when or if he will be there and we were lucky enough to see him 2 nights in a row, and made friends along the way. It was truly a magical experience, Bruno was the cherry on top but even without him making a suprise performance, Pinky Ring is still such a unique vibe I think everyone who visits Vegas should experience. I have no photos to post, just as intended :) The security was very strict about no photos. We were so impressed how well they caught every person, shining lasers at their camera and spotlighting them then escorting them out. Don't be that person, they will catch you and kick you out and make you delete any photos or videos (even from recently deleted, I asked). Just enjoy the experience with the people around you. No one else has to see photos to believe you, and even if they did they would not fully understand the vibe and experience because they weren't there. If you made it to the end of this review, I hope you make an effort to visit Pinky Ring, you might get lucky!!

I came to Ghostbar at the Palms on a Wednesday for Locals Night while celebrating a family member's…read morebirthday, and it exceeded our expectations. The Wednesday special is hard to beat $100 for a 1L bottle with bottle service, which is an awesome value compared to most Vegas clubs. The service was excellent from start to finish. Our host and server were attentive, and all of the staff and security were friendly, welcoming, and professional. The DJ kept the energy up all night with a great mix of Top 40 hits and EDM, so there was something for everyone in our group. Between the music, the atmosphere, and the great service, everyone had an amazing time. If you're a local looking for a fun Wednesday night spot or have friends and family visiting, I definitely recommend checking out Ghostbar. I'll definitely be back!

I remember when it was new but it is still as beautiful as ever. It was kept up over the years and was reinvented once during its lifetime. I like the Rio's rooftop bar and this one - and a lot of good memories here from now years ago. The 'elevation' of this bar and the view it offers should be part of any Vegas getaway. The people who come here are from all over the world - but you also get local regulars - and I think that is what makes it so enjoyable. Bring your friends and you are guaranteed a good time. I have fond memories of my one friend here 'taking down the mother hens!!' The trendy club scene of today - it changes - it has to do with what DJ and what celebrity endorsement - and probably more factors I'm not even aware of. Resorts a tiny bit off the Strip are always a better value and they tend to try a bit harder. The same is true for anything at the Palms for that matter: the rooms, the restaurants and the overall service. No doubt there are other clubs on the Strip that have the "it" factor - but this is a good bet.

Great vibe, love that they really commit to the theme! Service was good, they have a solid menu with some light bites and extensive cocktails of course.

All the tables by the window are reservation only but if you walk in, you can sit at the bar which is facing opposite of the view. However, you can take your drink to the outdoor patio section to soak in the strip views. The staff were super friendly and easy to talk to. The drink I had was well balanced and strong, where some bars can water down the cocktails. It was cool that the bartender helping us was the one that made that cocktail! Overall would recommend to stop by if you're staying in the W or Mandalay Bay or anywhere near the south side of the strip

"I'm at the W, but I can't meet you in the lobbyyyyyyyy.. Girl, I gotta watch my back, cuz I'm not…read morejust anybody!" Great views from the 64th floor of the W Hotel. It would help if there weren't fingerprints smudged on the pane glass. Very secluded, & quiet.. It could be due to the minor signage, where u if you're not paying attention, you'll miss it. Definitely gives business deal vibes! If I had some deals lined up, I'd close them here for sure. Perfect setting to cheer a huge business deal. It's a bougie spot.. u know, upscale. I realized that when I looked at the menu & realized they had no food.. So, I ask bartender, like.. "where the wings at?" lol.. I'm thinking wings, fries, sliders, calamari.. nope! I think he said they removed food from the menu & we laughed. It's cool, calm, & collective up here.

I feel a bit of shame being a Vegas local and sharing that I've legit NEVER been to VooDoo Lounge…read morebefore this past weekend. And what a cool spot it was! We were at the Rio to see a show, and after the show decided we wanted to keep hanging out there and enjoying. At one of the bars we randomly stopped at on the property before the show, one of the bartenders gave us a buy one get one free cocktail for VooDoo Lounge if we went. And there was no cover charge to get in! Sold! We decided to head up there after the show. This spot is locaed on the 51st (I believe) floor of the hotel but you enter on the second floor and take an elevator up. After a quick check our IDs and search of our bags and whatnot, we were able to take the elevators upstairs. As soon as we got there, I booked it for the outside patio. I mean, come on, you have to! This is really what sold me. WOW! It's STUNNING up there! Amazing views on the Strip unlike anything I've ever seen before. There was also a DJ up there and he was playing great music. For a Friday night, it wasn't super busy, but still really nice. We were able to sit wherever we wanted, as the tables and lounge seating was totally open for everyone to enjoy. We took in the beautiful views and each had a cocktail. Our server was outstanding and did a great job waiting on us. Sadly, we were getting a Vegas thunderstorm underway so the DJ had to stop and security all ushered us inside. Still, nonetheless, this was such a cool experience and one I'll continue to talk about. Definitely go if you can!

I'm not sure what kind of transition the place is going through but it's rough in here…read more It's pretty empty when you come in from the parking garage. It was a Saturday night at 9pm, we were greeted by very friendly staff both downstairs and upstairs. We went out to the terrace to enjoy the view and took over a lounge seating space. The 3 of us ordered a fishbowl which was great but we didn't stay longer because the place was empty and the DJ played the same beat for the entire hour we were there. It's a shame that this has gone so downhill. When I went to the bathrooms I noticed the water damage on the walls and the lack of maintenance so it sealed my fate to not return for a while. This used to be the spot but it's a little scary anywhere in the casino.

This review is for visits in August 2026 Chandelier floor 1.5…read more We frequent the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas a few times a year. Every visit, we go the iconic Chandelier Bar, specifically floor 1.5 Not only do we return for the excellent drinks, we go for the service. The Chandelier Bar has many employees who have been at Cosmo since its opening . They are some of the best bartenders & staff on the strip!They also have great management. We recently met Angela , one of the newer managers who is very friendly. She approached us to see how our drinks were, even when it was pretty busy at the bar. The Chandelier bar also refreshes their drink menu a couple of times every now and then while still keeping some of popular drinks on such as the Verbena cocktail, which is nice. They have three floors , and every menu is different than the other. We highly recommend the Espresso Old Fashioned, a combination of two popular drinks. The staff will also make anything to your liking , as long as ingredients allow. It's definitely a can't miss spot if you are staying at Cosmo, or just bar hopping on the strip. The vibe is awesome!! We love the staff and drinks here and can't wait to go back!

Once upon a time, I went to The Chandelier with my girlfriends, and we took iPhone 5-quality photos…read morein our short, tight dresses, languishing among the crystal strands. One of these group photos was my Facebook profile picture for a minute, until I got tired of all the random men hitting me up on the off chance that I was one of the hot ones. To be fair, the odds were pretty good. My friends were all beautiful, and remain so now. I returned to The Chandelier with two of them last month, Melissa K. and June K. and I reliving our youth after seeing the Backstreet Boys at the Sphere. The bar felt a little different, though it could also have been us. A bit more dated, a bit quieter, a bit more businesslike somehow, even at two in the morning. Bartender was nice, though, and it was easy to get drinks and find a table. We got two colorful cocktails, Butterfly-ing Forever and Strawberry in the Rye. The butterfly drink was purple for some reason, made with Tequila Ocho blanco, Calenda mezcal, and butterfly yuzu emulsion. I'm guessing the "butterfly" was the purple butterfly pea flower, and not actual emulsified insects. In any case, the drink was good. The strawberry cocktail mixed High West Double Rye with strawberry, orange curaçao, Suze, and Angostura bitters. Also quite tasty. We ended up taking our drinks to go and heading back to our room. This was more fun and relaxing than hanging out at The Chandelier, but we did enjoy our brief visit and our brightly colored cocktails.

I also liked that they stay open late, so it's a good low-key option if you're looking for somewhere to hang out after most places have closed. I didn't try the hookah or the food, so I can't speak on those, but aesthetically the place was nice and had a good atmosphere. They were playing good music all night, and the workers were friendly and welcoming. The only thing that threw me off was the bar. The prices felt like Strip prices, but the experience didn't. Having to pay separately for a canister of cranberry juice as a chaser and then getting the shot in one of those little ounce-sized sauce cups instead of an actual shot glass just made it feel cheap. That was honestly the biggest downside for me. I'm sure the vibes are different on the weekends when it's packed, but at the end of the day, the prices are still the prices. Even if the atmosphere is crazy packed that part of the experience wouldn't change for me. As of now, it probably wouldn't be my first choice, and I honestly don't see myself coming back unless there's an event or something specific going on.
