Is the room service really that expensive? I do remember paying extra taxes on taxes at the Encore

$75 for french onion soup, a caesar salad, and two beers

$55 for a bad 18" NY style pepperoni pizza

There's an 18% gratuity and a $10 delivery fee for every order.

That's astonishingly expensive. I bet you could get a local pizza place to deliver an 18" Pepperoni for half that, let alone the $10 fee.

Everything on the strip is jacked up beyond anything I've ever seen in Tokyo or NYC. Pizza delivery might work, but otherwise... literally everything on the strip is jacked. I can find $1 slice pizza in Manhattan. Less-good version in Vegas? $6.

Vegas has discovered that it doesn't really matter what they charge. People will pay it. Gone are the days where they subsidized food costs with gambling revenue -- I really wouldn't be surprised if the casino floor cocktailers disappeared in the near future.

Delivery food is a great way to save money, but they can't deliver to your hotel room. You have to meet them at the entrance to the hotel.

That seems pretty ok.

No pizza places deliver to rooms in casinos on the strip, you have to go down and meet the driver.

At least fees are included and you don't get a bad look for not tipping.
