It's hard to get visitors Downtown, but if you are genuinely looking for activities that do not have to do with gambling, this $100 million open-air restaurant, shop, and entertainment complex (with an 11-screen movie theater) provides plenty of motivation. Located right at the Fremont Street Experience, where Fremont Street meets Las Vegas Boulevard South, it's basically a big, open-air mall, but one that is powered by Jillian's, a national chain that specializes in creating little urban entertainment centers (they are behind the similar Metreon in San Francisco), with a state-of-the-art arcade (as well stocked, from air hockey to virtual-reality games, as we've ever seen), bowling alley, billiards, two bars, a nightclub, and a restaurant all in one tidy package. It's not a 24-hour joint, but the hours are long enough that nongamblers can amuse themselves here while the gamblers in their party are doing their thing. The cafe has an extensive menu (from hamburgers to jambalaya) with most items in the $4-to-$10 range and as tasty as you could want from such a place. It's too close to the Fremont Street Experience not to go and has too much to offer not to stay, but it is too noisy, thanks to happy kids and teenagers, to want to stay too long, depending on where you fit in those demographics.
