Vegas prices are definitely beyond belief these days but the joke is on the tourists… these corporations will continue to push the envelope on room rates, resort fees, parking and food/beverage pricing as long as we continue to show up and open our wallets! Personally, I’ve got alot of other awesome destinations I’ll be travelling to rather than Sin City for the foreseeable future.

NOW, there is still ... NO WAY!! For that PRICE POINT they will need to DOUBLE or TRIPLE that serving size. And GOOD NACHOS starts with GOOD CHIPS ... having to be HOMEMADE or FRESH. Compare these to the Peppermill and others. Jacob ... THANK YOU for sharing the news on SUPER NACHOS. I would like to see someone do a comparison of the SUPER NACHOS offered in Las Vegas 😊

    Vegas doesn't need an upscale fancy new casino, and whomever idea this was burned their money. Rich people they cater to will fly to Monaco and get real upscale food and, most of all, privacy vs. allowing filming in an upscale environment.

    There is a similar item at El Tiempo Cantina in Houston TX. (I went to the one in the Galleria area). I ordered fajita nachos to go. They came in a big aluminum foil container, and when I opened it up there were maybe 8 lonely nacho chips, each meticulously topped with cheese and meat. Came with salsa and sour cream. I just happened to order their homemade guacamole on the side or I wouldn't have had any at all.
