I would be interested in hearing about this, too.
I have always wanted to try Boa.
For those that have been there, how does it compare to other steakhouses in Vegas?

Anyone ever been to "The Northwoods Inn?"...One in Covina here in Cally...And a slew of four of them on Rosemead Blvd...San Grabriel I think...Another I think out toward the beach too...Some city North of Long Beach I think...
Man great steaks and peanuts galore...They used to have a Piano man also who would take requests out here in Covina...But did away with it about a decade ago...P*ssed me off it did as I'd always give the guy a few bucks and have him play something from an old movie or some George Gershwin...

I've been wanting to try BOA, too. We should have some steaks and then go play pinball.

Try Bradley Ogden in Caesars. Also, Envy in the Renaissance Hotel and Prime in the Bellagio are always really good, although a bit overpriced. I just ate at Hanks in GVR and I was really not impressed, although the decor of the restaurant is really cool. I usually just hit Del Friscos if I'm going out for steak. Always consistently good.

I was not particularly impressed with Del Friscos the one time I went. I thought the strip steak was remarkably bland.
The James Bond table is sort of cool, and sort of completely retarded.

I've heard many times that Craft is excellent, and I also know Fiama is really good.
Been meaning to go to Craft for a while now.

I recommend Yoli's Brazilian BBQ if you're an avid meat crusher. On Paradise and Harmon, I believe. Order the barbeque and it becomes the lazy man's meat buffet- they just keep bring spits with different fantastic meats right to your plate. They don't stop bringing meat til you stop eating. Can't be certain, but price may range from 50-100 bucks a person but well worth giving a shot once at least. Excellent quality meats obv.

Here is my list of the places that I have been to in Vegas:
1. The Range, Harrahs 2. Charlie Palmer, Mandalay 3. Flemings, Charleston Blvd, Summerlin 4. Hugo's Cellar, Four Queens 5. Vic and Anthony's, Golden Nugget 6. Smith and Wollenskys', Strip 7. Samba, Mirage 8. About five other dumps not worth mentioning
The Range just had a good night, that night I went. Most people would say that Charlie Palmers is the best.
Best restaurant in Vegas is Woo in my opinion, at Palazzo, Chinese. They just moved in to the casino after years off strip as the Mayflower on Sahara.

lets do this, but replace BOA with craftsteak (seems to be the most suggested)

I agree about Yoli's as ive posted before... and i had no idea that Mayflower had closed and moved. That place was fantastic.
