I'm going to add to the post above, the view from Mix atop The Hotel at Mandalay Bay is the best view of Las Vegas. If you are here Monday Night and you are a clubber the Foundation Room is open to the public and that too has a great view, but I prefer Mix...more laid back atmosphere than Foundation Room or Ghost Bar.
Food...won't go there, the list is rediculously long. You could spend all weekend dining at various restaurants at MGM Grand and never have a bad meal.
Sports Book, SCnit's list is good, I'd add Mandalay Bay to it. As for cocktail waitresses...all are good. The ones at the Rio get up and sing too so that's an added bonus.
Gambling...downtown is my personal favorite.
Have fun!
