What casino in Las Vegas has the best cocktail waittresses.
 
Going to Las Vegas. Do not want to hunt a cocktail waittress for a drink while I give away my money. Also would like the less watered down variety.

www.cheapovegas.com has some good capsule reviews of the hotels and casinos, including cocktail service.

Steve - every waitress in Vegas will cater to your every drink need and you will NEVER be lacking refreshment if you follow one simple rule...<BR><BR>The Secret Rule... TIP Heavy! If you throw her at least a $5 chip for every drink, you will be in alcohol heaven!!!<BR><BR>Otherwise stand in line and wait with the other no-tip, 50cent-tip, and dollar-tip losers who expect superior service without putting out.<BR><BR>As you say..."while I give away my money"... give some of it to your server, and you will get more drinks than you can handle... be a shooter!

While a 5 spot is a bit over doing it per drink, be sure to throw something their way. I have always recieved the best service at the Bellagio. The girls even come around the .25 and dollar slots.

Never had a problem getting a drink at Bellagio. But with any casino, you tip them, they come back. You don't tip them, they go first to the guy who does.<BR><BR>But beware of "Leonard Tose Syndrome."

I find that tipping the waitress a couple bucks before she brings your first drink will keep her coming. You should, of course, continue to do this every time. $2.00 per drink is a hell of lot cheaper than paying at the bar, where they will charge you about $6.00 per watered down drink.
