Palazzo Race & Sports Book

Placed some season long NFL wagers here that won and when I looked at the tickets, I was in disbelief that the event date was the start of the season. Which means you basically need to cash your ticket by the Super Bowl or it’s invalid. This policy is an absolute joke, the event date should always be when the regular season ends. There are plenty of sports books in Vegas and all of them are better than the Palazzo.

Ok so I normally would never complain but I think it is interesting that the sports bar in the palazzo feels it’s ok for a cleaning lady to clean the bathroom while your using it. I asked them about it and even the general
Manager said yep totally normal. Ok so when has it been totally normal for a woman to stand there staring at you while your using the restroom. By the way she is not the same attractive female that serves you drinks. You can be the decision maker on this.

Let’s see. Nice hotel, spend a little extra, and put down a larger bet will get you better treatment right? Wrong… At least for this sportsbook, or maybe it was just the rude bookie up front having a bad day.
We waited in line for about 15 minutes. It was Kentucky Derby and Mayweather vs Pacquiao weekend, so it was a little busy, but nothing too crazy.
We finally got to the front of the line and approached one of the bookies. They were apparently only handing Kentucky Derby bets (which seemed to be pretty busy) so they pointed us to the right and said «See those gentlemen over there DOING NOTHING? They’ll be happy to help you.»
Great, I walked right over to them. As I approached the (asian looking) guy to help me had his hand on his chin bored out of his mind. I handed him over a good amount of money and asked him some details about my bet. Annoyed, he tells me «there are papers at the front of the line». I told him I had never done this before, and he rudely responds «one thing at a time sir». The bookie next to him seemed to feel he was being disrespectful and handed me a paper on bet options. I later asked politely if he could clarify what I was doing, which he kind of did. I apologized but was still left a little cloudy with the bet I just placed.
Won’t be coming back here because of him. Palazzo should have better customer service considering the type of image they are trying to uphold.

Inconsistent reservation policy. Used to love it here and now it’s so poorly managed.
Could be a gem, now it’s just disappointing

I can only say… Wow!!!

Been here a few times now and enjoyed my experiences.
Once was with a big group where we were ordering all sorts of drinks and apps, which were all extremely tasty. They forgot a drink every once in a while, but not a big deal, it came eventually. Love the TVs everywhere, even by the normal tables away from the big stadium seating. Cool that they have private cabanas with their own TV, kind of like by the pools.
Next time, just hit the bar by myself to kill some time while my fiancé was working. Bartenders were extremely nice and attentive. Changed channels on the TVs at request. Got the pulled pork sandwich for lunch and it was very good, slaw on top was a nice addition.

Be careful… they will sit you in the stadium seating but you won’t be told there is a $ 50 charge of food and drink minimum. I first sat at bar a few weeks ago on vacation… on way to bathroom I saw this area to sit and watch the games. It was half full, Sunday afternoon, 6pm, so I asked to sit there. Besides the $ 40 I just ate and drank at bar… the manager told me I would be charged the extra minimum $ 50 or I could stand at the railing and watch the one NFL game on tv half over.
I’m returning to Vegas first weekend in December and the last week. I don’t recommend. I’m not just a once a year tourist but I wish you all the best for the manager. You have a long career in front of you.

I am a big football fan and read reviews that this was the best book in Vegas to watch football. So my buddy and I made reservations for their stadium for Sunday night football.
The hostess took us to the our seats which was an over sized chaise lounge. My buddy looked at me and said this is not going to work. If you are with your girl and want to share a chaise lounge/​day bed then this place will work. If you want to watch sports, I would pass.
We asked to find somewhere else to sit and they accommodated us. Now on to the food. Wings — very good, delicious. Everything else is average. Service was very good.
In summary– if you want to watch sports, eat and have a drink I would not recommend.
If the Giants did not beat the Cowboys i would have given this place 1 star.

Sunday football!!! This was the best thing ever, trust me. The signature steak sandwich was everything I hoped it would be and the margaritas were strong!

It’s a Sunday afternoon in Vegas, and the drive back to L.A. is a nightmarish option at best. My friend I decided it would be a better idea to hang in town for a few hours, let the traffic die down, and recover somewhat from the preceding 72 hours.
Where to go and what do? How about eat some food and watch the second half of the baseball game? We asked to watch the ball game that was currently in progress and we were taken to the main seating area which is set up like a movie theater, set in the center of the sports book. It’s a stadium seating setup, with each row comprising of comfortable couches and pillows and a few coffee tables to place your food and drink on. Plenty of room to stretch out and not get too close to another party. There’s the main projector screen with what ever the game of the day/​hour is, and about a dozen or so smaller TVs surrounding it with other games, sports, etc.
We plopped down center, mid way up the seating and split a chicken wrap and loaded pork nachos. Although a little pricey for what we ordered, the food was pretty decent.
Now I didn’t come here to place any bets here, although I would have been pretty comfortable in doing so if I were «playing the ponies», as they say. The betting rooms looked pretty plush.
Overall, a good place to place some bets, nurse a hangover while watching a game, or just grabbing some beers and eating some decent food, via the recipes of Emeril Lagasse. You could lose yourself here during football season and probably watch every single game on a Sunday.

Sportsbook viewing was pretty good and easy. But since if was the middle of the summer, there were lots of seats available. It was fine for me… but don’t think it would be great during NFL or NCAA MM season. Not enough seats for serious sports gamblers like me.
The main con about this place is its «non internet» wi-​fi connection for ppl who like to do research about the team stats on there phones before a bet. Good luck on getting reception there or even text’s on time… there seems to be a slight delay for text msg… like 10 minutes… suckerdees!!!

— Very inconvenient location, its like in a basement area, really is a shitty location
–In order to sit down and watch sports you need minimum $ 50 order PER PERSON, EVERYDAY ALL DAY
–Cashiers were assholes to me
–Worst Sportsbook I’ve been to in Vegas.

I know this is probably not their fault, but I lost $ 200 betting on the Celtics last weekend.

A Sportsbook needs to be comfortable, easy to make a bet, and have a great viewing experience. I am really torn by this place even being catergorized as a sportsbook since I should count Buffalo Wild Wings also then if I count this place. Anyways
is it Comfortable? Hmm well it looks like it is but, it is really not and is more of a restaurant and cant sit really unless you order food or a drink. Easy to bet? The area you make a bet is in kind of a pit and really not easy and you have to hunt a little more to find all the bets available.
Great viewing experience? This goes back to the restaurant feel, you cant walk in grab a seat and watch a game and hang. It is really all over the place. Plus the restaurant feel makes the place feel greasy and the service is not very good either. So it is ok, but you really cant call it the best in town or even a book until you compare to what a book really is and experience it. If you are tourist go to Wynn, Aria, or Mirage and watch a game, lay on coach, make some bets and grab a beer.

I LOVE GAMBLING & SPORTS. and in my heaven they live together, cherry-​topped with free-​flowing drinks.
Throughout the year I immerse myself in heaven as I can find it– from multiple Fantasy Football leagues to March Madness bracket pools & Vegas getaways.
Vegas sports books satisfy (most) all my vices, and the Palazzo is one of the nicest to try and take my money yet.

Review in Haiku form:
We owe you a debt
Chef Emeril Lagasse,
Well designed sports book.
And maybe a second haiku because it’s so special:
Food, drinks, and gamblin’ ?
Emeril, your menu rocks!
Don’t lose, Patriots!
Seriously though, it’s gorgeous, easily the nicest I’ve seen in Vegas, or anywhere.

When you’re in Las Vegas; if you got the munchies and there’s that sports game that you gotta watch; then «The Palazzo Sportsbook Bar & Grill» is the place to go! It’s quite new and there are High Definition screens everywhere! If there’s a game that you want to watch that’s being broadcast, it will be available here.
You have the main central area where the most important game is being shown on their largest screen. As you can see in the photos; you have stadium seating that contains sofas, couches, seat cushions & coffee tables. Plus, you’ll have someone taking your orders and delivering your food to you! This is the ultimate place to dine and watch a game; but if the main screen isn’t showing your team, you can find the screen that is showing your game that’ll also include your own personal couch or sofa for your seating pleasure.
I came here last year during the NFL season. Of course my 49ers wasn’t on the big screen, but I was able to find them somewhere else where I was able to sit & watch that game comfortably. As for the menu, it’s quite pricey for your typical American foods with limited selections. The food is nothing special. If you want to eat a hearty & delicious meal, I highly suggest eating somewhere else; but if you just want to get a bite to eat and enjoy watching a sporting game with your buddies or even by yourself, you’ll enjoy your time at the Palazzo’s Sportsbook!

I’d like to prefice this by saying, I DO NOT LIKE SPORTS…
but I do like alcohol! I was forced to watch a Lakers game here last week and must say this is definitely the coziest sportsbook I’ve been to in Vegas. The service sucks dick but I’m not sure if I scared away our server with my condescending attitude when he didn’t come back for 15 minutes after our first order.
If you’re a chic, and in Vegas, and HAVE to watch some sort of sporting even this is definitely the place to do it in.
Oh and btw, next girl’s Vegas trip I’m hanging in here, ALL DUDES. Hehehe

I don’t drink and I don’t smoke, but I LOVE sports. In late September I found myself in Vegas and the Buckeyes were playing the Golden Gophers with Terrell Pryor set to become king of Columbus. Having had breakfast at Bouchon I stopped by the bakery for a wonderful muffin and made my way to the Palazzo sportsbook where I met my friend to watch the game.
In a word, heaven. Huge plush seats, plentiful and enormous screens, smoking only on the patios, and difficult enough to find that it was ½ full (given, it was 9am.) My buddy and I sat on the patio, he smoked a cigar, I drank coffee, and we watched the Buckeyes on one tv, spartains on another, and the Gators LOSE on another.
Sure my parlay got smashed when the Wolverines crushed the worthless badgers, but at least I got to watch the rest of the Big 10 in great surroundings. Better than Caesars, better than Mandalay Bay, no drunken dolts… and service from young people.
I can’t comment on the food, but it appeared to be elevated bar food. I dug the jerseys and layout as well. GREAT place.

This is, hands down, the BEST sportsbook in Vegas. Even better than the Mandalay Bay. Oh my god, it’s unbelievable! I see how they turned this from a mediocre club (formerly Jay-Z’s ⁴⁰⁄₄₀) into a spectacular sportsbook. See the thing about this sportsbook is that it’s much, much higher end, almost luxury. There are no drunken frat boys here. Mostly older crowd, there to eat and watch a game in class.
The food is awesome, the service is great, the screen is humongous, the sound is crisp and the chairs are SOOOO comfortable! There are long couches, short couches, pillows everywhere and little side tables and coffee tables for food. It really was like you are being pampered.
Then again, our wings were $ 14 and a Stella is $ 7. But it was all on the company’s tab so really I can’t complain!
Now if only my team hadn’t lost me $ 100… I probably would’ve enjoyed the experience that much more.
