Dress codes

I was wondering how strictly enforced are the dress codes?





Looking on some of the restuarants websites they state ';Business Casual'; I%26#39;m presuming that this is shirt %26amp; trousers, this that correct?





I go out to dinner a lot in London and almost nowhere has dress codes anymore. A lot of people wear jeans and t-shirts/sweaters but from loooking at the websites it doesn%26#39;t appear that these will be allowed.



Dress codes


Your presumption on what%26#39;s meant by %26#39;business casual%26#39; is pretty spot-on.





Dress codes aren%26#39;t strictly enforced in Vegas restaurants in that apart from the really exclusive places they wouldn%26#39;t ask you to leave if you had jeans on. However you may feel a little out of place. I%26#39;ve found that it%26#39;s worth making the effort as the restaurants seem to appreciate it and give good service in return.



Dress codes


The dress codes you see on web sites for strip restaurants are meaningless. Just about all use the disclaimer ';PREFERRED';. Only requirement is that you have a wallet.





The only time I have seen a restaurant turn someone away was a biker couple where the rather voluptuous attractive lady was wearing a black tank-top bra-less with most of her hanging out the side that had “BITE THESE” silk screened across the front. They returned five minutes later with the lady wearing a black tee-shirt from the gift shop, still bra-less. I had milk with my dinner that night.




For most places there really isn%26#39;t a dress code. Only the most exclusive restaurants enforce thier codes. You will see everything from shorts to business casual to jeans to formal wear. I bring a skirt (or black pants) and a silk blouse with me but that is about as dressed up as I get-and about half the people there aren%26#39;t even that dressed up. Just use common sense and you will be fine.
