Drinks were above average, ambiance was above par… the reason for a local return? The SERVICE! Jillian is a crown jewel! Attentive, yet unobtrusive, Jillian knew when to stop by and when to leave us be. Tyra was phenomenal as well! Great service from great gals in an above average joint!

Located in the Aria resort and casino, this place falls short, real short. The lounge area is nice, but the service… Terrible. Two waitresses in a crowd of 50… really? Needless to say, I had to flag down a half naked one, put my drink order, and wait who knows how many more minutes for my 2 $ 50 drinks. Not impressed.

Ordered a Baileys and coffee at 3am, and it came 30 minutes later for $ 22. I could accept the price if it was a good drink. It came in a standard issue banquet coffee cup, no rim, no whip, no garnish, and I don’t actually think they used a full ounce of baileys. Terrible service all around. On a positive note, the host, Theo, was very lovely. He did what he could with the hand he has been dealt.

Super chill place. This what makes a place striking when the people around you bring the positive vibe. Alibi Ultra Lounge gave us that energy so our short lounging here was somehow unforgettable. The natural and relaxed atmosphere was the key! Female servers here were well-dressed in a lace little black bodycon dress with ultra low neck line and they are also attractive. Classy. Most of the customers at that time were guys and smokers but we didn’t mind because we were seated comfortably and enjoyed our pre-dinner cocktails. One good reason to drink more because it’s Vegas. My favorite was the COCOAFASHION! Another great cocktail lounge at Aria!

Ordered a sazerac but the bartender made it wrong. Incorrectly, lemon juice was added. 2nd bar tender came over. Did it wrong again. On the 3rd attempt it was right.(We ordered it in the same bar before from a different bar tender and it was right.) then they attempted to charge me again for the same drink, which I naturally refused. The bouncer came over and felt like mediating the situation. He spoke to the bar tender and decided we are right. However, at the bar tender’s, request we were told to leave. Thrown out because they did not know how to make this drink? Wow. What a fantastic experience in this cocktail bar. For an $ 18 dollar drink!

There is nothing ultra about this bar. It’s been worse since it was closed for remodels a couple of years ago. Is literally one of the worst bars I’ve been to in Vegas. Staff was rude, last year they had limitations on how a bill could be split, wouldn’t let you sit in certain sections unless you bought a bottle. Even if you had a group of 20 and we’re spending way more than a bottle would cost they still focus on the bottle service. This was even the case last night when they were so rude about walking lanes and they kept changing where they were walking, focusing for more on the tables. I had to finally ask if they just wanted us to leave. Two of the waiters, one of the managers were all incredibly rude. And they would also normally only bother the men to make them move. We used to come here every year for union of 20+ people when it was city bar, never again.

The only thing worse than the pretentious staff is the drinks. If you’re going to charge $ 20 for an old fashioned, do a quick Google search and learn how to make one. Thankfully we declined to be upsold on a more expensive liquor. Nothing would have cut through the cup of syrup we were served.

Nice bar, but super expensive drinks. We were celebrating my birthday, so I indulged in a $ 21 La Peche champagne cocktail — so good, but so pricey! The lounge is beautifully appointed, the servers are friendly and they mix up som

Don’t know if they serve any kind of food but drinks were pretty strong for the price. Atmosphere felt kind of uptight(at least while I was there) and the charge for reserved seating($ 250 min.) seemed a bit high but if you’re looking for a nice lounge away from the madness of the strip, this is a good alternative.

Rape, poorly camouflaged as service. A traditional Vegas casino floor bar, but with redonkulous attitude and stupid pricing. Came here one day around noon for a cup of coffee; charge was $ 6 for a up of plain black drip brew. Now, I know the employees don’t set the prices… but though they may not be the actual rapists, they were still party to the rape. Guilt by association! More than just the prices, this place and its employees had an unpleasantly arrogant attitude. While I was seated here, a group of friends came in to say hi, but were carrying plastic souvenir drinks from the Stirp… and were thus summarily booted from the premises. At noon on a Wednesday!!! Give me a fucking break, you pretentious asswads. I’d rather shove a splintered piece of weathered jack pine up my asshole than ever set foot in this lame-ass excuse for a lounge again. And that’s a fact!

This place is a cool spot that boasts some fantastic people watching, some comfy lounge seats and some really pricey cocktails… This particular lounge is located within Aria and isn’t a bad meeting spot with friends or for a night cap should you want to just sit back and relax over a nice glass of scotch. Overall, very similar to other lounges but not a bad option for a drink or two. Pros– Location Decent service Good menu Comfy lounge seats People watching Cons– Pricey cocktails Nothing too spectacular Can get smokey

I’m giving this place two stars because the drinks were ok and the atmosphere is fun. One thing that I cannot underscore enough is how terribly bad the service is. I’m not sure if they are understaffed or if the waitresses they hire are just unskilled and forgetful but they were straight up clueless and ineffective. I wouldn’t come back because it isn’t worth it. There are many many better options in Vegas.

I met a friend at this small but stylishly decorated cocktail lounge smack-dab in the middle of the Aria casino floor.(It’s stylish until your eyes are assaulted by the video slots on the bar top.) The specialty cocktails sounded too sweet for my taste, so I opted for my old standby — an Aviation. I winced at the fact that cocktails were $ 14, which is high, even for a well-made cocktail at a prime Strip location. What’s not standard is the bizarro $ 4 surcharge on my bill for ordering a classic cocktail. It’s called a «classic bump» and isn’t disclosed anywhere, until you see it on the bill. So, so lame. That said, the Aviation was well made and delicious. But there are so many other, better cocktail lounges nearby, with better prices and no video slots. I’ll stick to the Chandelier or Rose Rabbit Lie at the Cosmo.

The wife and I stopped for drinks at ALIBI on two separate visits to Las Vegas this year. As casino bars go, ALIBI blurred the line between a serious cocktail bar and a swanky, sexy lounge. From the décor to the very attractive bar staff and cocktail waitresses, it was aesthetically sexy yet classy. More importantly, though, ALIBI had the substance to back up its style. On our first visit, I fell in love with the Bright Eyed & Bushy Tailed, a delicious, boozy cocktail made with coffee-infused George Dickel Rye, Cocchi Barolo, Fernet, and chocolate and Angostura bitters. It was well made, nicely balanced, with a whole host of notes that I love. It was the best drink that I had had that particular trip to town. On our most recent visit, I had the Sweet Alabama($ 19) made with Wild Turkey Rye, Aperol, lemon juice, Pompelmo soda, and Peychaud’s bitters. It was an enjoyable drink, not too sweet, but nicely bitter with balanced citrus notes. It was good, but couldn’t surpass the genius of the Bright Eyed & Bushy Tailed. Had I written my review after our first visit, it would’ve been, at a minimum, a 4-star experience. However, in the space of roughly six months between our visits, ALIBI lost a lot of its luster. ALIBI had always been on the high end for cocktail pricing compared to other Strip properties. However, on our latest visit, it appeared that it had raised its drink prices by roughly a $ 1 per cocktail making it, ranging on average, $ 3 – 7 more per drink compared to superior Strip cocktail spots like Vesper and Chandelier at the Cosmopolitan and Bound at the Cromwell, Downtown Cocktail Room in Fremont Street East, or Velveteen Rabbit(where drinks are $ 10 less!). While its execution was still solid, the price increase seemingly didn’t reflect the use of better ingredients, unique infusions, house-made ingredients, or simply a bigger-sized drinks. The simple fact that ALIBI also didn’t comp drinks for video poker players at the bar playing max credits on a $ 100 buy-in made for an overpriced experience that didn’t deliver nearly as much as its competitors. What a shame. ALIBI forgot that at its core, it’s not a nightclub, it’s just another casino bar. I very likely won’t be back.

Stopped by on the way to Valentino at Crystals. Swanky little lounge situated in the middle of the casino. Cute and efficient bartenders. Drinks are served up fast while you enjoy the upbeat *untz untz* music.

This is a really cool bar in Aria. I love the Aria hotel so much and this place was really chill and happening on a Saturday night. The drinks were so nice in these true whiskey glasses. I would definitely go back !

A fairly small bar and lounge at Aria hotel, open 24 hours which is very convenient for anytime cocktails or shots. We met some friends there late night, had 2 Lemon Drop martinis, they were not that strong but very tasty. The atmosphere was very relaxing and chill, servers cleaned out empty glasses fast enough, people were friendly and polite. Just wish this lounge could be bigger, it got very crowded on Friday night, lounges are not supposed to be crowded, not like night clubs, so it was an OK experience. They really need to open up new lounges at Aria, many of them are closed down over the years!

Okay, first and foremost, everyone needs to stop with«wahh the drinks are pricey!» Seriously, what did you think coming to Aria and ordering a specialty drink? All specialty cocktails on the strip range from $ 14 – 18. If you find any cheaper, please let me know. Really, I’d like to know lol. Enough of my rant, time for the drinks! We went with the Lonsdale & Rosemary Amaretti. I definitely preferred these to the drinks I had at Vesper in Cosmo a little bit ago. I loooved the Rosemary Amaretti! Really smooth, and I know this sounds weird but this drink smelled so good lmao. I seriously wanted the scent as a candle for my house! It was floral and sweet yet crisp and slightly citrusy as well. Way too easy to drink, watch out with this one lol. The Lonsdale was also really good. Tasted like hard cider with a deeper herbal note. Definitely would have these any day again. Great little spot in Aria :) yum!

Came by to catch up with some folks and grab a drink the other night. To my surprise this was a rather horrific experience… The Alibi cocktail lounge is across the walkway from Jean Philippe Patisserie. The ordering process was rather complicated and convoluted as our waitress informed us that she could only«split» the check in 2 unless we wanted to order and sit at the bar?!? She later informed us that we needed our ID in order to charge to our room along with the card if we were to pay via card… After a good 10 minutes, we got our drinks… except that there were 2 issues: 1. We were charged for 6 drinks when the 5 folks in our group each only had 1 drink?!? 2. The bill was«split» 90%+ and less than 10%?!? The receipt had 2 lines for«tip» — Service and Bus?!? …the waitress was nowhere to be found after she brought out our order and check?!? Some folks wanted to smoke and cleared it with the staff that smoking in the lounge was okay after 10 pm… after lighting up, the bouncer comes by to inform us that smoking is only allowed after 10:30 pm. …by the time the folks stepped out for a cigarette, the bouncer came back stating that they are now okay to smoke inside the lounge?!? ~$ 12/drink after tax and tip

Grand opening party with passed appetizers and libations. That is my full disclosure! Not a huge crowd but the place was somewhat busy. The appetizers I sampled were mini lobster tacos and mini pigs in a blanket. Usually the free apps are mini! Both were top notch. The one drink I had was a tangerine something or other. It was very good and I noticed quite a few speciality coctails that looked yummy on the menu. The vibe is that of the typical Aria lounge– swanky. This is fine in small doses(or grand opening parties!) If you’re a fan of mixology, check it out. Anytime I don’t have to pay is a good time. Machines at the bar, here’s your chance to spend a 20 and maybe win, since a drink will run you about 20 anyway.

Drinks are pricey, $ 14 and up. Located in the Aria, Alibi is really just a hotel bar. There is nothing really distinctive about it. Well, maybe the pricey ass drinks. We tried several off the menu and none were really worth it. We got comp’d 2 drinks from the manager. One because they asked us to move from a table we were sitting at and the 2nd because waitress spilled a drink all over my friend, sooooooo, 3 drinks for $ 18 each wasn’t horrible. But, had we not gotten comp’d, we were going to leave(initially, it was just 1 drink the manager was comping us). I’d pass on this place and drink somewhere else that’s cheaper. No happy hour, no specials, just expensive drinks on the strip.
