***Urgent advice needed***

I know some people think its rude to not take off your hat in a nice restaurant, but I'm not going to do it (got the Chris Ferguson thing going with looking like i have hair till hat comes off). So what i need to know:

Anyone know what restaurants in Vegas are nice, but not so nice that they're going to make me take off my hat.

I had a first date once with a dealer at mohegan when i was more of less living at foxwoods. Had been playing poker all day rarely even brushed my hair much but was fine with a hat. go to restaurant and there like sir please take off your hat. God that was aweful lol

So guys help me out.
Thanks

Hahaha this reminded me of Tony Soprano getting angry over a guy with a hat in a restaurant.

wtf in all serious is the deal with hats anyways. I assume it's got to be some catholic thing or something. I still need help with original question.. but feel free to derail with why it matters if someone wears a hat why eating.

Heh, depends on the place and the people coming there. There was a poker tournament in Austria this year and every player HAD to wear a sack coat to play If u didnt have you could rent for 5euro or something.

I recommend Grand Luxe Cafe at Venetian. Last year some of my friends had hats here.
It does look nice and its open even after midnight.

The food is great, the place looks nice with seats in different rooms/areas... mushroom cream soup, mahi mahi fish, shrimps and cake fudge collision! Try that with your pinay (filipino girl) but order only 1 cause its huge.

And come back with her in the morning at Bouchon @ Venetian for breakfast. Stay outside.

Grand Luxe is a very good recommendation. One of my late night favorites. I've probably eaten there 50 times and never had a bad experience.

Technically, its the Venetian's 24 hour coffee shop but it is owned by the "Cheese Cake Factory" so it's not your average coffee shop. Very extensive menu, great food, reasonable prices in a nice environment.

There is also a a Grand Luxe inside the Palazzo.

I am going to have to agree with everyone that Grand Luxe is a great choice. Great food and is nice enough to take a date but you could definitely keep your hat on.
