I went to Las Vegas every year from 1999 until 2018 when things took a turn for the worse. Now in 2024 I doubt I will ever be back. I miss the good old days though and I'm glad I got to experience it.
@@rickyricardo5423 No clown car it does not depend on what the meaning of is, is. Being ripped-off is like Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart’s definition of porn: “You know it when you see it.” Now, return to your job as F&B Manager at The Fontainebleau, there are more 1X customers to rip-off!
$21 is what my meal at peppermill cost. One of the best,if not the best, omelets I have ever had and it came with a big bagel and a side of hashbrowns. Was so much food my fat@$$ couldn’t finish it, and that is easy walking distance from the Fountaine Bleu. Their spicy bloody mary slapped too.
Nice quick video, love the ending. Pretty modern look to the place, I'll have to check it out next time there. Looks like the longer I wait the less amount of machines I'll actually recognize.
OMG OMG OMG! I have seen this and watch this video with Yeti Smoke and Black Peter Griffin on RU-vid and it was awesome! I love the viral nachos since I have seen Beavis and Butt-head before when it comes to nachos! I would love to try the delicious nachos! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
And it would be well deserved. I was going to go there to let my wife exlerience it, but I changed my mind because of the ridiculous prices. The last time I was there was 2015.
“Ironing the kinks out”. It’s Vegas; staff and management know better. I wish we still had Lefty Rosenthal around. At least the blueberry muffins would be outstanding. Curious to how busy the place was. Most of the tables and machines look empty.
I LOVE SUPER ❤ NACHOS ... and I am pleased to see the attention being given to them! It was through Shin that I first became aware of the SIX CHIP "nachos" ... there was just NO WAY! 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 😊
You can get 3 times the size of those nachos at "The Still" sports bar in Mirage for $18! And some of the best queso nachos Ive ever had, but keep trying Fontainbleau
Jacob… you should schlep on over to the Ice Rink at the Cosmopolitan Hotel now. You could enjoy their Grilled Cheese Sandwich served with a Cup of Tomato Soup for $72 or snack on their $35 Churros! 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.
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. Thank goodness I paid for it with a gift card. I would have been pissed if I paid almost $20 for 8 chips😂
Now listen, Jacob ❤ it was an appetizer. By standard industry, an appetizer should arrive in 5 min max . Waitress Tonya is the true MVP . 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. Great job as always, Jacob!
Don't forget the $5 tip that is morally mandated for the waitress simply because they had the gall to charge you 5 times what the meal is worth. LOL! It's the game, baby!
They are behind the curve if you can't pay at the table. Even my favorite mom and pop pizza place makes paying from the table possible. Wondering why they only had one server. What was the day of the week and the time of the day?
Glad to see a review from you about eatery in fountainbleau. Behind me feel about finally being in fountainbleau since the last time you mentioned it a few years ago? It seems like it's a good place to go kind of on the luxurious side expensive. Is Fontainebleau worth all the weight? E
I'll answer for him. It's awful. This eyesore stood for 17 years before being semi finished and what they have presented is a half baked mess. Do not waste your time going anywhere near this place. Will be out of business or under new management within a year. Top executives are fleeing this property like the plague.
My wife and my went there the Friday of NYE weekend…not impressed…we checked in at 11pm for 1 night. 3 rest were closed. The food court was open and the tacos were decent
The Buffet at the Wynn now seems like a bargain at $54.99 for brunch or $74.99 for seafood dinner. They can keep these food court joints with their $20 hamburgers and $30 sushi.
jacob, my family and are moving to vegas, ive seen most of ur videos. especially with peter santinello, what do really recomment as to getting vegas permits coming from Cali.
I know when I go there I’m paying more but I hate feeling that I’m getting absolutely F***ed. I’ve stayed off strip for my past 5 visits and it’s a better experience for me.
I'm surprised you ate as much as you did. I know you don't eat a lot if carbs. They looked and sounded good. The price is kind of high but you are on the strip and things are always expensive there. Take care and stay safe, Jacob.
Fontainebleau in Miami is the best hotel in Miami and has been for decades, so this property will only get better, I am staying there for the Bar & restaurant expo
I mean I guess those are ok for Vegas prices... But considering what I can get here in El Paso. The quality, quantity, and value...makes me laugh and snort.
Good video, but a couple thoughts. First, how do we know that the image that went viral was real? You said that they've improved their nachos since that viral post, but the viral post could have been staged or fake. Second, the staff seem to know who you are, so who knows if they didn't just amp up your nachos this time because they knew you were likely to be posting on YT about it.
I actually think their original nacho plate was a perfect portion for people on a certain diet like yourself. I'm guessing you didn't eat more than 6 chips.
