1.0 out of 5 stars Dont' waste your money on this guide, April 6, 2008

By	Luis Alfredo Jahn Herrera (Caracas, Venezuela) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This Michelin guide to Las Vegas is the worst guide of any city I have ever bought. I have a complete collection of more than 50 Michelin guides, mostly of european countries and cities and they are great, very detailed with precise indications and a through research.

This guide is nothing like those. It is very thin, for every hotel there's just a little paragraph and a photo, same thing for restaurants. This is a complete waste of money.

How can you describe all the amenities of monster hotels like the MGM Grand, the Bellagio or the venetian in 10 lines? They don't even compare room amenities or features of each hotel.

Same thing goes for the restaurants, the european guides tell you which are the best entrees and specialities for each restaurant, in this guide you will find a simple picture and a very brief description.

I own some 6 guides to Las Vegas and this one by far is the most useless of them all. It's a simple (and very incomplete) listing of the major hotels and restaurants with no worthy information.

If you are like me and trust the Michelin guides, be prepared for a surprise with this one, better yet, dont waste your money and buy the Fodors guide or the Unofficial Guide to Las Vegas.

4.0 out of 5 stars Makes Vegas even more fun, February 18, 2008

By	Young Paik "BayouKingpin" (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Las Vegas is a city known for indulgence. While I had found some great places to eat, it has been difficult. The Michelin Las Vegas Red Guide does a great job of uncovering some amazing places to eat. I really appreciate that while many of the best places are on the strip, that there are many great finds off the strip. Looking forward to trying them all.
