When people think about "The Strip", they're usually talking about THE Strip (aka Las Vegas Blvd), not Boulder Highway. But along Boulder Highway, there also exists a strip of casinos, albeit not as picturesque or outlandish. Running directly between Downtown Las Vegas and Henderson, a cluster of modest casinos line a highway taking patrons back in time when slot machines paid actual coins and $5 blackjack tables were reserved for high rollers. They're also great places to grab an inexpensive dinner without long queues or nightmarish traffic.
It's a shame for unadventurous visitors who remain solely on The Strip to miss out on these small establishments and a nostalgic slice of a bygone era. But that's good news for us locals who prefer for these gems to remain hidden from the onslaught of tourists. Good values should always be hard to find!
