It was like an early Christmas gift when it opened in mid-December 2010, a glittering argument that Vegas ostentation could be cool instead of cheesy. Over time and through a recent change in ownership, the Cosmopolitan has maintained a blend of edgy entertainers, huge musicians, brilliant artists, hip vendors and more talented chefs and bartenders than could ever fit in the Chandelier. Tourists love it, too, but it has always felt like the locals’ clubhouse on the Strip. 702-698-7000.
