Ever since the Millennials became the inmates running the asylum, we at ELV have noticed a decided drop in manners, dress, etiquette and general good behavior in the restaurants of Las Vegas. (To be fair: things have been improving lately, with youngsters and boomers alike showing a certain respect for looking and acting their best. Witness the crowds at Carson Kitchen or Bardot Brasserie any night of the week.)
Nevertheless, it seemed a good time to go through some of our essential, restaurant rules of the road, if you will, and remind our loyal readers why good behavior generally insures a great time.
At Eating Las Vegas, we never:
– Shout or wave money to get a bartender’s attention.
– Wear shorts anywhere but the beach or beside a pool (such as at our palatial manse).
– Show up drunk for dinner.
– Show up drunk anywhere. (It is perfectly okay to get drunk at dinner – or the watering hole of your choice – but arriving in that state is bad form.)
