We hold 7,900 venues in Las Vegas, NV and could score 547 of them. Positions are counted against those 547.
v1.7.4 3.6/100 = sourcing 2.6/50 (named-farm 0 distinct, named-region 2 distinct of 3, attribute 2 distinct [class=graded-spec x0.00, class=provenance-adjective x0.50], buzzword 2 distinct) + farm partners 0.0/20 (none scored) + registry 0.0/12 (none listed) + press 0.9/18 (capped at 35% of the 2.6-point evidence base).
7 signals are withheld while we re-check the source. They cite a menu capture that failed our plausibility review — a page that didn’t look like a real menu when we re-read it. The claims may well be accurate; we don’t publish evidence we can’t stand behind, and the ranking above was scored before this check, so it still counts them.

“Hugo's Cellar has long been one of the best things downtown Las Vegas had to offer -- an old-Vegas-style 'gourmet room' in the best sense of the word, a reminder that although we've moved on to newer things, it's nice to hang on to the best of the past.”
