"I found Bond to be a flashy, glitzy cocktail lounge and gaming bar at the Cosmopolitan's northern casino-floor entrance, named for James Bond and offering wide open views of Las Vegas Boulevard. It serves as a prime first impression for pedestrians entering from the Strip, with video gaming on the bar top, regularly scheduled DJs, occasional go-go dancers, pop-up performances in window boxes featuring musicians and performance artists, art installations, and quirky takes on traditional cocktails; it's also open into the early morning and sits across from the 24-hour American menu at The Henry. I learned that plans have been filed for a “complete interior demolition” with an estimated $125,000 budget for removal and an estimated $1.8 million construction budget to build an unnamed “spec bar,” though the makeover timeline and whether the Bond name will return have not been announced." - Bradley Martin
