content: Sorry Nine Fine, $7.50 for a Newcastle is a mugging and won't get you beyond two stars.\n\nNine Fine Irishmen is located inside the New York, New York casino.  It's more than just an Irish pub.  The ornate d\u00e9cor and split level venue make it seem a little more classy than a hole in the wall.  But I have serious gripes with this place.\n\nThe crowd: You are guaranteed to come across packs of oblivious tourists.  It starts as you wait to get in and only gets worse the deeper you get inside.  These are the folks who just stand in the middle of the room staring at the wall while you try to weave your way through.  They're inescapable.\n\nThe booze:  8 bucks for a Guinness and $7.50 for a Newcastle is about as expensive as it gets on the strip.  And when it's served in a clear college style plastic cup half the time, good luck expecting any kind of tip from me.\n\nThere are a few bright spots.  The venue itself seems very authentic.  And on many nights you'll have live Irish music which is certainly better than another dj playing Boom Boom Pow every 20 minutes.  But hey if that's your cup of the just go out to the patio seating and you'll hear the music bleeding over from Rok next door.  If you have money to burn I would go to Nine Fine during the day if you feel you must experience it, otherwise it's not worth it.
