I meant a one way match since it's Hyatt now and not a partner... mostly. Like, Hyatt status gives a rio status one way only.
As for perks, I think there are some minor benefits and perks which may incentivize some people to gamble/more.

Thank you for posting!
At least that clears up where the hotel stands and what it wants to offer to Globalists.....
However it states clearly daily complimentary breakfast ..... yet very enigmatic and omnious....
any reference to OJ, beverages, specialty coffees are ommited....
a recipe for disaster

To start...
These are too rich to be handed out like candy.

they could do a promo for Hyatt members if they wanted like say 20%/40%/60% lower thresholds for the first yeat for discoveridt/explorist/globalist to entice them to play at theRio but maybe they just feel like they dont need to. I have to check but it seems I am not that far from azul if memory serves me correctly 🤣

I'm sure this is done because some might have a guest in the room (e.g. a 15 year old child traveling with parents) who will be charged for the meal and beverages.

Has anyone here tried Kang's Kitchen? If so, is it worth the $50 pp AYCE? Looking at the prices just ordering off the menu wouldn't make sense. For KBBQ we usually go to Gen on the Strip which is pretty good quality for$36pp including things like Ribeye, Galbi/Kalbi, and Filet Mignon so that would be my comparison KBBQ nearby.

Gen for us has always had much better quality and pricing than any other KBBQ on Spring Mountain. They have a few locations in the Vegas area with the Strip one being the closest to Rio. There used to be a Gyu Kaku on Spring Mountain which was good Japanese BBQ with a good Happy Hour, but they closed due to the pandemic.
Anyways, hoping for some feedback on Kang’s as I don’t really feel like dropping $200 (Family of 4) for lesser quality KBBQ.

They have three AYCE menus from $28 to $48, with the more expensive menu featuring wagyu, lobster, etc. Lots of options.

I would recommend Gangham BBQ, which is a short uber / lyft ride away: https://maps.app.goo.gl/4WPecwnAGFhhYdjC8

I was only considering Kang’s because we got a marketing offer for $100 F&B credit so it puts a big dent into the $200 it would cost us. But we could also use it at the food court and save KBBQ for Gen or Gangnam.
