Hotels - Rio

Rio

It's been through several iterations, a place that's struggled to find it's identity, but it's starting to come around.

They finally put a bit of time and money into the place, after lots of neglect under Caesars (unsurprisingly).

One of the best casino carpets in Vegas!

Ma'am...

Remember the Masquerade Show in the Sky? 

How about the Seafood Buffet?

Well they got rid of those.

But they do have the best Player's Club Rewards program, so there's that.

Vegas is all about that balance.

That's actually her gambling nickname.

Best Chicken Tenders in Vegas (Tender Crush).

Thai Queens for the win!

Baaaaahhhhhhh

That's just how they say "hello" there.

I want one of these for the house.

Merlin knows all.

Nama Nama - literally the worst sushi, and for the worst price, in Las Vegas.

It's like 6 of the smallest pieces of sushi you've ever seen for like $18.

Like the pieces are the size of 8 pennies stacked on top of each other.

Seriously.

It's bad.

I always stop to play Double Triple Diamond Deluxe with Cheese.

Obviously.

Favorite Memory: Kiss Mini Golf

Went back 8 years later.

Still the same as it ever was.

2025

Favorite Memory: Lapa Lounge

We talked with a bartender who has been there like 40 years - he said 2025 was the slowest year of tourism he had ever seen.

That was pretty wild to hear.

Was a #terrible year to put money into slot machines, that's for sure, I can vouch for that!

You should always spin one time after a big win, you know, for "good measure".
