Heading to Vegas

[shlomo]

I know there is a lot of love for Casa Fuente, but honestly the place is ludicrous. Prices are wild, and you are literally sitting under an escalator indoors in a mall. Mojitos are like $14, the staff is not overly friendly, and your SITTING UNDER STAIRS IN A MALL...Ridiculous and a massive waste of time if your in Vegas imho. Grab a stick or two or 100 to go is my suggestion. You can get great drinks everywhere and enjoy them and your cigar more someplace else.

The cigar box is also a good place to go. A very welcoming mixed crowd with a hometown feel. The humidor is filled with a great selection

A friend of mine who just returned from Vegas suggests Andre's Cigar Lounge, second floor of Andre's restaurant in the Monte Carlo.  A beautiful high-class lounge judging by the pics.

Fellas thanks for all the tips, if there are more, keep them coming, I know Casa Fuente is pricey, but hell its Vegas and having a Tangerine Mojito in one hand and a CF Corona Gorda in the other is on my bucket list so price be damned.

Just got home freom Vegas Monday night.  Went for the Super Bowl and my wife's birthday.  Stayed at Caesars also.  Little cigar store inside Caesars has some nice stuff as does the Davidoff shop at Venetian.

Agreed, if you love casa fuente cigars like I do then it's worth the trip in there to pick up some sticks or a box if they have in stock, which I can't understand that the only place that retails these could be out of stock but its true-it happened to me. Place is nice to experience once but to hang out there is a waste of time as the gentleman above explained..... there are far better places to be in Vegas and smoke and be accommodated at various hotel and casinos.

Got into Vegas tonight, checked in, had dinner, and headed to Casa Fuente.  Casa Fuente Corona Gorda and 3 Tangerine Mojitos later, I am loving Vegas right now.  The patio is closed because of complaints from stores about the smoke but enjoyed the bar.  I realize some are turned away at the prices but coming from PA where there is a foot of snow and 15 degrees outside, it sure beats sitting in the garage with the portable heater!

ha I was there in Nov for the "Big Smoke out!" you couldn't even see the walk-in form the Bar lol. the cloud of smoke was rolling up the second floor like a thick fog. Not once did I see a table open when I first arrived, was a bit over the top.
