Romeo y Julieta short. We first bought a Fuente, than snuck in a Cuban. Best cigar bar I've ever been to. Who's been here?

For being the "Entertainment Capital of the Word," I was profoundly disappointed with the cigar scene in Las Vegas. I didn't have an opportunity to visit Casa Fuente as they were remodeling at the time, but I have heard mixed reviews. However, there are few other lounge options. Not many good B&M's either.

Not so sure I agree with you. OK to visit, but I don't like the vibe that they are doing you a favor by selling you a $40 Opus X.

There are some good shops, just not on the strip.

I do like the davidoff shop in MGM and the fact that I can smoke at the sport book.

Loved the Casa Fuente Lancero, but over priced.

Casa Fuente corona gorda is one of the best cigars on Earth for me.

As far as the shop itself, I have only been once. It was before the recent renovation. I would consider myself a lover of all things Opus, so I didn't flinch at the prices since I was vacationing in Vegas. But that being said, the prices on the HTF items like BBMF's and such may give the normal smoker a heart attack. But when in Vegas, who's there to save money anyways?

Always visit Casa Fuente and Davidoff at the Venetian to buy a few sticks whilst in Vegas. Not cheap but what the heck that's Vegas.

Never stayed at Casa for a drink but when I'm there in June I'll be having a Mojito. We stayed at Aria last time, super cigar friendly place. Also went to Andre's at Monte Carlo, kinda cool, leather chairs and a good range of whisky.

Been there many many times but I prefer the Rum Bar if the weather is nice.

Went there in 11 while a friend and myself were attending the CA Big Smoke. Not a bad place to sit with a cocktail and a cigar. They charge a fair penny for Fuente but at least for a non CC they are decent. I agree though, time spent at a poker table or I believe there are a few steak houses that allow cigars is more to my taste.

Good call. I forgot about the rum bar. Great place to have a cigar on the patio if it's a decent day or night.

Hard to beat strolling the casino floor with an Upmann No. 2 and a "Bellagio Cocktail," or a Siglo IV at Petrossian Bar with a martini (with blue cheese stuffed olives). Perhaps you can't smoke at PB anymore, but my point is on the right night, the vibe is perfect for a cigar almost anywhere, so who needs a defined lounge to have a great cigar experience.

great staff, mojitos, and selections of rum. And every Fuente cigar imaginable.

Was just there. Great Mojitos. No problem brown bagging so I was unaffected by the price of sticks. Agreed that the mall atmosphere is not preferred but the people watching is good.

I went a couple times before the renovations. As others have said though, you can smoke just about anywhere. I much prefer to wander the casinos/bars/strip while smoking than be restricted to just any bar/store store. If I am going to lock myself in to one spot I would choose The Foundation Room at Mandalay Bay. It's got everything you need, sticks to buy, great food, Amazing Music and Booze. Oh and THE VIEW.

Has anyone been to the new(relatively) Davidoff store in MGM? I don't usually venture to that part of the strip, but I plan to at least give it a look when I'm there in March.

I was not aware of The Foundation room. It looks good, can you bring your own cigars?

I've never been but I did order two Casa Fuente cigars - at $32 apiece for 2 lonsdale size smokes! Ge-e-e-e-z!!! wacko.png Only smoked one, and have the other in one of my desktops. Not bad, not too bad...*

Been several times and like the Mojitos. However, I prefer the Rhum Bar at Mirage (they also have a small indoor section, btw).

Up until a couple years ago it was Invite Only/Membership required. I've always smoked out on the patio, to enjoy the view pictured. I originally went with a member and never had anybody hassle me about bringing my own sticks. Typical of the rest of Vegas, a lot of people are walking around smoking cigarettes, Cigars, etc. It would be almost impossible for them to require you to buy from them.

I would recommend going earlier rather than later, as the "DJs" can get a little intense late at night. Also be warned, its pricey, even by Vegas standards. ($10 for a beer, up to $26 for a specialty drink)

The "new" store is now basically a kiosk in the middle of the gambling area.

Relatively smaller selection of sticks than in the past

Thanks for the info. I'll check it out next time I'm there.
