We love Nic Cage. Everyone loves Nic Cage. He's a literal National Treasure. Nic Cage buys prehistoric animal skulls at auction and, when they accidentally break, he buries them in a field. He buys the finest real estate out there — islands in the Bahamas, European castles, double-apartments in Manhattan — and then he goes broke and loses them all and ends up living in a rental in Vegas. It's impossible to even tell if he's good at acting or terrible at it. He's maddening and amazing.
Today, our sister site Curbed celebrates all things Nicolas Cage all day long, coast to coast. And Eater Vegas couldn’t help but get in on the fun since he does live here when he’s not filming Dying of the Light or Left Behind. Here, a compilation of 19 places Nicolas Cage has been spotted dining in Las Vegas in the past three years.
