Went there two nights ago, a 10. New hotel downtown, sorry no photos. Excellent service, my filet was perfect, drinks a 9-10. One of the owners stopped y our table to thanks us and ask about the food quality, and Barry came by later. Place was buzzing, not over crowded due to guidelines. Gaming floor is very high end, we all won! Not big money. Many dancers near pit boss centers, all HOTTTTTT, a lot of skin showing, indeed! One bar is over 100' long, reasonable pricing. Sports book is the largest in Vegas, massive screens like I have never seen. Validated parking at Barry's for valet. Worth your time to check it out. We could not get a view from the top bar, about 75 floors up as it was full.

When I went in the evening everything was $25. I can tell you this most of the dealers are even women and I think the ugliest one I saw was an eight in that place they are beyond hot. It’s worth it to walk into the place just to check out the women, this is an all adult casino

IDs are checked tight security the best of all the filter this place there’s no thugs in there.

Anyone going to this place post your own opinion but there’s some serious eye candy especially the two hostesses for Barry’s steakhouse. Both them them are damn near a ten!

One of the owners of the steakhouse saw one of the individuals on a party had a Lamborghini coat on, we had three cars there parked at the valet, all backed in. Valet dues were very cool too very inviting they took the photos with the cars is all a lot of fun.

When we left Barry's owner came out with his wife and some other friends took photos, invited us back and gave us his number in case we had

a problem getting reservations in the future just a genuinely nice guy.

and yes Ziggy I got the part the green bomb and keep the keys that’s the only way. we tipped the valets is generously, it’s been a tough year for these guys.

I built a bunch of the dining room and bar tables in there, the place came out really well. My good friend's firm was the design group for Barrry's the interior came out absolutely phenomenal.

They spared no expense down there.

We CNC machined billett steel emd caps on about 25 tables to make them interlocking when needed. These end caps were like 40 inches long by 1.75 thick all machined from solid steel.

So this is a new casino/hotel downtown, by Freemont street? Did they build it or did they re-do an existing building?

Yeah, even just playing the inside numbers I only have enough bank roll for about a dozen rolls at a $25 table... place looks awesome though.

Wow this place looks awesome. What's it like up there in the surrounding areas? Last time I was in the Fremont area it wasn't my scene.

Personally i like Fremont better than the strip, it's more genuine, less corporate, better value, there are a ton of great restaurants and bars all in walking down there.

A year ago it was great, since fentanyl flloyd and the BLM crap along with covid a lot of vegas has become a getaway for thug trash. People that aren't participating in any business down there, they BYOB and loiter, It was pretty bad over the summer, but that was with the entire strip really, not just Fremont.

Not sure if has gotten any better, last time i was there was right before they opened Circa, but i was there in the middle of the day on business.

I love Hugo's Cellar the 4 Queens, probably the last legit original Vegas steakhouse that hasn't been perverted by a "rebranding" or taken over by a corp.

It's exactly how it was 40 years ago. Same menu, same interior, same excellent service and staff.

I like staying at the old classic joints. I play blackjack for entertainment, not the prospect of winning, and the cheap tables are easier to digest when I'm losing.

FYI; You cannot be a hostess at Barry's unless you have matching super low cut dresses and D boobs.

I bet 90% of the hotels in the country have fees, and Circa gives a valet pass of all diners. You are not going to travel much if it is all about avoiding fees. Most Vegas hotels now offer free self parking for card holders, included in resort fee, or locals.

It's a fee added to your hotel room bill.


Do you mean, as I am standing at the Check In and after paying TO PARK, and getting ready to Pay for a Room. There is a P.S. here BEnd Over and there is one little "Pesky" Extra deal.

The reason is You people deal with and accept It and WE cand Do It.

So is that the Jest of it?

Thanks in advance. 🤔

The Circa was featured on the New Years Eve celebration on channel 5 (KTLA) in Los Angeles. I saw a bit of it (Dick Clark's loves bad music), and I commented I had never heard of the Circa. Vegas is the one city in constant state of remaking itself, I can't keep up with all the new/changing casinos.

I'll have to check Barry's out next time I'm through there. If I stay in Vegas I do prefer South Point. Is Circa more at the top of the strip or the bottom?

I'm guessing it's actually downtown.

Yeah a read a few more posts mentioning Fremont Street so that's up by downtown. (or "Old Vegas" as some say).
Yes its on freemont street . About as far away and culturally different as you can get .
