The Laundry Room is a cool, intimate speakeasy located within downtown LV. Only 16 people are…read moreallowed in at one time, you need a reservation, and there's a dress code. We were seated at the bar and had a nice time interacting with the cocktail craftsman/man in charge, Davey. The menu is his creative brainchild and changes a few times a year, with the current one based on the movie Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. There's a 90 minute limit and 2 drink minimum per guest. Because of the craft and attention to detail that goes into each cocktail, we finished our 2 drinks just about right at the 90 minute mark. I really enjoyed both of my cocktails but the one that stood out to me the most was Strange Medicine. It was reminiscent of a martini but with Brie-washed Old Bison vodka, Cocchi Americano, and herb oil. It was so good that I wasn't sure what drink to choose next, but Davey was helpful with a great recommendation for another cocktail served with a chunk of parmesan cheese on top. Keep in mind that you're paying for the experience and the level of craft. So with a 2 drink minimum it won't be a cheap experience but it's definitely something worth checking out for the unique, creative cocktails.

Pro: Fear and Loathing menu, updated furniture, yummy drinks…read more Con: Not the previous Laundry Room you remembered, glorified tourist trap, lack of atmosphere control. Slow drink service. The Laundry Room is dead, long live the Laundry Room. The remodel that took place during Jan to May 2026 saw a wide amount of change from Corner Management, the mother company of LR. They got rid of the absolute corner stone of the lead bartender, Anthony, and redecorated the place to look more like the sister bar, Doberman Drawing Room (5 Stars). The remodel was absolutely needed, as the regulars and Dean's List could point out, the place was kind of falling apart. From water warped bar top, uncomfortable chairs, and chipped paint/worned carpet, you would think this place WAS left over from the Prohibition era. What sets this establishment apart from any of the pretend speakeasy on the strip is the atmosphere. At any given time, you could cram 16 people there at a time, even with the reduced drinking time cut from 2 hours to 90 minutes, this place could only cycle thru 50 to 60 people from the reduced nightly opening of 4 hours from 6 hours previously. This make LR special, not some faux speakeasy in Cosmo or Resort World that could jam in 80 people per hour with room to spare. Gone is the rugged identity of the old laundry room for El Cortez, this is spiced up, every square inch of the wall is covered with some art piece, very much different from the Depression era decor. Some art selection are just straight up chaos from the management, the main cherub piece behind the bar is just insanity. The new master of house, Davey, showed skills with his new 14 drink menu, but fell short of what made LR great in the past 14 years. Now, the man had just two months to create his drink list and per himself, had to start from the scratch from when he took over.. So, with that said, let's focus on the drinks. Hemingway Dalguiri, Dust + Ether, and High Noon Static - all great in taste, presentation, and talent, abet we can see the hesitation when making his own drinks, thus slowing down service by quite a bit. My party saw him struggle making 6 drinks at once, 4 of them the same drinks. Recommendation from someone else, maybe record the drink making process and try to eliminate non productive habits and motions via video viewing. Since Davey is a visionary, looking in the past is a deal breaker for him. If you are trying to finish up a previous menu for the Dean's List, the joke is on you, that is a no. Where the hostess (the only person that survived the purge from the remodel) explained to him that exception needs to happen to keep the Dean's List going, the answer was a no since no one at management told him about this. When asked about what will the new requirements will be for the future, it's simple, finish the menu before it's replaced with no chance of catching up. Once a menu is done, it's done. I guess it's easier to keep the drinks under control with less ingrediencies needed behind the bar, but wait a minute... drink number 15, Research and Development, that should give Davey some leeway to non menu drinks right? Turns out, not so much. Sidecar- cognac, orange liqueur, lemon juice. Simple right? He leaves the room to get something from Commonwealth... didn't management installed a new fridge to hold the larger ice cubes, where previous bar keep have to venture out all the time? Turns out, there was no Cognac or any Brandy in the Laundry Room. I can see how things are shaped, strict bottle control is for the benefit of the bar, not for the customer. There is now Vodka, foam, and milk wash but lost Cognac or Brandy, but besides the freedom of choices were also compounded with complete lack of rules. For the last 14 years, the hostess and bar staff on rotation were friendly yet firm about house rules. First given upon entering the secret or window doors, then by the bartender after an aperitif is given (now eliminated). No photo, religion, politic, standing at the bar, name dropping, brawling, telephone calls, PDA, and smoking, plus don't be creepy, be patient, and know your limit. Most of these were not enforced the first 2 times my party of regulars have visited since the remodel. The cardinal sin of allowing one single 4 top to seat 2 people at a time is just wild. But hey, no rules are listed on the new simple menu and none giving at the door or at the seats. So what is this place now? 20 to 23 dollars for a drink plus more for popcorn. All for the experience of being in a noise warfare between Commonwealth and La Mona Rosa's speaker systems, with LR's own music turned up high, and the piano only used one night of the week. I would recommend Doberman Drawing Room as of now for better drinks options, less noise, and vibe. The new menu to replace Fear and Laundry will come out this Fall, will be bring some regulars with me to check on LR again and hopefully give more than 2 stars on the next review.

As a huge Lisa Vanderpump fan, I had high expectations, and somehow the entire experience lived up to them. I genuinely felt like I was one of Lisa's besties sitting in her cocktail garden! My best friend and I were in Vegas celebrating the fact that we both recently got engaged, and this was the perfect place for it. We had a reservation but arrived a little early and were seated immediately. When we mentioned that we were celebrating our engagements, they surprised us with complimentary shots, which were delicious and such a thoughtful way to start the night. My best friend ordered a mocktail that she is still talking about and claims was one of the best drinks she's ever had. I ordered the pink margarita and absolutely loved it. The presentation of everything was gorgeous and felt so intentional. For food, we each ordered the Grilled Steak Skewers with pistachio chimichurri, and of course I couldn't come to a Vanderpump restaurant without trying the iconic Goat Cheese Balls. They absolutely lived up to the hype! Everything was delicious and beautifully presented, and the quality matched the elevated experience from start to finish. The ambiance is what really takes this place to another level. It's glamorous, romantic, moody, and luxurious without feeling like a gimmicky reality TV tourist attraction. You genuinely feel like you've stepped into the Vanderpump world. Between the gorgeous decor, incredible presentation, delicious food and drinks, and top tier service, the entire experience felt special from beginning to end. My best friend said this may have been the highlight of our entire Vegas trip, and I honestly can't disagree. If you're a Vanderpump fan, this is an absolute must, but even if you've never watched a single episode, it's still an incredible cocktail and dining experience. We would come back in a heartbeat!

We started with dinner at Gordon Ramsay's Pub, and unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. Thankfully, we still had some time before the concert, so as a huge Lisa Vanderpump fan, we decided to stop by Vanderpump Garden for a cocktail. What a difference! From the moment we walked in, we were treated so warmly. The host who greeted and seated us completely turned our evening around. He was everywhere--cleaning tables, delivering meals, helping guests, managing reservations--and somehow did it all with genuine enthusiasm, professionalism, and kindness. You could tell he truly cared about every guest's experience. I even asked to take a photo with him because he made such an impression on us. Employees like him are rare, and I sincerely hope management recognizes what an incredible ambassador he is for your restaurant. He absolutely made our night and reminded us what outstanding hospitality looks like. We'll definitely be back for the cocktails, the atmosphere, and especially the exceptional service. Thank you for turning what started as a disappointing evening into a wonderful memory!

The drinks are genuinely top-notch -- inventive, beautifully built, and finished with real theater: ours arrived with a smoking pour done tableside, and it tasted as good as it looked, which is the part most "experience" bars forget. Our server knew her menu cold, made sharp recommendations, and prepared everything with style and obvious pride in the craft. The atmosphere is lively without being chaotic -- three stories of glittering chandelier around you, good energy, and you can still hold a conversation. We hit it as the opening act of a celebration night and it ended up being one of the best stops of the whole trip. The same night, we paid premium prices elsewhere for an "immersive experience" that couldn't hold a candle to what this bar does effortlessly. Skip the gimmicks. Come here. This is the real thing.

Giant glass chandelier to accompany the name. Drinks are strong, free little water bottles (this was a nice touch to keep us all hydrated as we hung out until late), and handled our large (80+) person group admirably. They have a number of seating spaces with plush, couch-like seats downstairs, and lots of crystals and mirrors to reflect. Open to the casino so you can see the folks gambling and enjoying the space. At least they had enough bartenders, so that was good, too! Glass staircase down to the first floor. We didn't try any food (not even sure if they had a food menu?) , but I see notes about a secret pizza place? I'll have to try it again the next time.

It was the integrity behind every moment. Before the séance began, Kent took the time to explain the experience, set thoughtful expectations, and acknowledge the emotional weight of what some audience members might feel. That level of care is incredibly rare. It was clear he wasn't trying to manipulate emotions or convince anyone of anything. Instead, he created a space where curiosity, wonder, and respect could exist together. His passion for his craft is unmistakable, but it's his character that makes the show unforgettable. In a city known for spectacle, Kent reminded me that the most powerful performances come from authenticity. I left feeling more than entertained. I left genuinely moved. If you're looking for an experience that makes you think, feel, and reflect long after the show ends, this is it. I'll absolutely be back.

Wow this place BLEW US AWAY!!! We got in on Saturday night and walked into Bruno Mars performing!!…read more The vibe was so energetic and unique, I definitely think the no phone policy is what made it feel so special. We had so much fun we went back on Sunday night just expecting good energy and live music. We coincidentally made friends in line and the bouncer asked if we wanted a table that would allow us to cut to the front of the line. Minimum was $500 and there were 5 of us so we said yes. To our surprise Bruno came out again!!! No one ever knows when or if he will be there and we were lucky enough to see him 2 nights in a row, and made friends along the way. It was truly a magical experience, Bruno was the cherry on top but even without him making a suprise performance, Pinky Ring is still such a unique vibe I think everyone who visits Vegas should experience. I have no photos to post, just as intended :) The security was very strict about no photos. We were so impressed how well they caught every person, shining lasers at their camera and spotlighting them then escorting them out. Don't be that person, they will catch you and kick you out and make you delete any photos or videos (even from recently deleted, I asked). Just enjoy the experience with the people around you. No one else has to see photos to believe you, and even if they did they would not fully understand the vibe and experience because they weren't there. If you made it to the end of this review, I hope you make an effort to visit Pinky Ring, you might get lucky!!

The live music was incredible! A lot of talent and a wide variety of songs. The energy was electric. The DJ between live sets was great too, he really kept the hype going. This club is worth the hype and the splurge.
