The Underground

Downtown

Since it's part of The Mob Museum, you may wish to think of The Underground as an immersive and interactive exhibit on Prohibition-era speakeasies. Memorabilia from the 1920s abounds. Period music plays all night long. But it also functions as a working bar, with hand-crafted cocktails, drink specials, and serious bartender sass. There’s even a distillery in a back room—The Underground distills and serves its own special-edition moonshine, and visitors can take guided tours. Admission to the museum gets you in for free, but if you aren’t visiting the museum, check the bar’s Instagram account for the nightly password to give the bouncer at the back door. And be sure to check out some of the secret meeting rooms; one is hidden behind a big painting.

Vesper Bar

Center Strip

The Chandelier Bar may be The Cosmopolitan's cocktail-venue claim to fame, but you shouldn't overlook the sleek Vesper Bar, the true mixologist space at the hotel. Name an ingredient, any ingredient, and the talented staff behind the bar can come up with a drink for you. Long-forgotten cocktail recipes are a specialty at this very modern square bar sitting alongside hotel registration.

Vista Cocktail Lounge

Center Strip

Different cityscapes ranging from sunset in Hong Kong to night in Dubai to evening in New York City change on huge screens (so you can order a Manhattan while you're looking at Manhattan) that make up the background at this lounge, which offers specialty drinks like a pineapple mule.

VooDoo Rooftop Nightclub & Lounge

West Side

Great views of the city have returned with this indoor/outdoor club 51 floors atop the Rio. Reopening in early 2025 after a long closure, it was unclear if VooDoo would again become a nightlife option for slightly older patrons or those less enthralled with the EDM/DJ culture of the Strip nightclubs, as it was pre-pandemic. The revived lounge shares its space with the VooDoo Steak restaurant and focuses on specialty cocktails—anyone up for a Cursed Cachaca?—and \"shareable punchbowls.\" The lounge opens at 9 pm, with the restaurant opening at 5 pm for those seeking a sundown view and (on select days) a happy hour.

Zouk Nightclub

North Strip

Zouk is, as you would expect from the vibrant-in-color-and-spirit Resorts World, a pulsating, throbbing bazaar of more than 2,000 dancing bodies, bright big-city lights, strobes, and lasers in what the operators say is the most technologically advanced club in town. Expect to see big-name artists, such as Kaskade, Tiesto, Ludacris, DJ Snake, Lil Wayne, Zedd, and Slander performing.
