Foundation Room Las Vegas

I am writing about the dining room of the establishment. . I rarely leave all five stars but this was a phenomenal experience. The prices were excellent for the quality of the food, and the steaks melted in our mouths. What especially stood out was our server, Otto Rene. He was fantastic. He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. He even went down to a lobby bar on the first floor to get my chocolate martini because the restaurant's bar did not have all the ingredients. Talk about a WOW! experience. We will definitely return at our next visit to Las Vegas and request to have Otto as our server again.

Five stars because there's not six. Everything, and I mean everything, was absolutely perfect. The food was so delicious and perfectly made. The service was fantastic. We didn't have to wait for anything because we took a stroll out on the patio for a gorgeous view of the strip. The room was beautifully decorated. What a great experience.

This is the restaurant review. We haven't been to the lounge area. It's a cozy romantic place. Classy, with an old-school steakhouse vibe. Our waiter was great and very professional, not too pretentious, which is good. The view from the outdoor patio was fabulous. You can enjoy it while waiting for your food or after having dinner. The food was good. Nothing impressive, though, except for the foie gras (it was an interesting combination with sweet sponge cake and cherries). But no complaints, everything was fresh and tasty. We appreciate the small size of appetizers so that you can try more dishes without overeating. Would love to see some more creativity in the cocktails menu, but the wine selection is good.

Greeted quickly by the hostess and the waitress was very attentive and gave great recommendations. The short rib was a bit dry maybe it was just my luck of the draw. Requested a side dish of veggies well done and they came out not as requested. Overall I would try this place again and just pick a couple different things. Great views of the mountains.

Rooftop views that wow, but the vibe isn’t for everyone. The Foundation Room in Las Vegas offers a tremendous city view from its rooftop, definitely worth seeing. But keep in mind, you have to pay for a seating area, and the atmosphere leans toward a dark, club-like, almost strip-club vibe with a devilish edge. It’s a unique experience—great if that’s your scene, but not what I was expecting.

We had a romantic dinner for my husband and I. The view was breathtaking, the atmosphere was great! Had a 7:00 reservation, seated immediately. We ordered the 6 and 8 oz filet a Caesar salad and 2 sides, macaroni and cheese and creamed spinach. The food was warm when arrived my husband steak was ordered medium and was over cooked. The sides were not seasoned at all, very plain with no flavor. The salad was a very strong anchovy flavor (not very appetizing). The steak had no seasoning no flavor. Overall very disappointing for the price. The server was not concerned about our satisfaction he was almost put out and rushed from our table. This was not the service or product I expected at this restaurant. We have dined there previously and the experience was good!

This is a total ripoff if you purchase a "VIP Entry" upgrade to your show ticket for the House of Blues. You're promised VIP entry and a free drink in exchange for $40 each. When you get there they give you a free drink ticket good for only a "vodka drink or glass of champagne". Further, 2 days before the show they announced that if you simply show them your show ticket, you can get free access to the Foundation Room. So we could have gotten in for free and spent only $25 each for a drink we actually wanted rather than $40 each for a drink neither of us wanted. I paid $25 for a drink I actually wanted and my wife choked down a vodka and coke. I feel like I should receive a refund since I got about $0.50 worth of well vodka in exchange for $80.

This review is not for the restaurant I did not go to the restaurant on this visit. Bar Area: Over Rated and Under Delivered. I bought a "VIP Pass" for Foundation Room to go here after a show at the House of Blues. Basically you paying to see the Vegas views from the 63rd floor. The balcony to see the views is narrow and gets congested fast. You cannot have a seat at any of the empty seats unless you buy bottle service. No matter how many in your party drinking. Vegas is becoming more of a cash grab than quality service and experiences. VIP Pass included a cocktail BUT it could be "vodka drink or bubbly" only....really! How much revenue could Foundation Room actually lose by allowing me to choose a drink of my choice like tequila, whisky, etc. why must I drink something you're trying to get rid of. Plus, we didn't realize VIP included a cocktail until we pressed the hostess about what is VIP actually. Then, we had to go back down 63 floors to get the drink coupon because of course our digital ticket wasn't enough. VIP is more hype don't fall for the scam. Highly disappointed!!!

Enjoyed the Foundation Room happy hour. The views of the Las Vegas Strip from the terrace are fantastic. Warming, it can be extremely Winston the outside terrace. The happy hour drink menu will run $11. For well drinks, $7 for a beer and $9 for a glass of wine. They also have a happy hour starters menu with prices at 10, 11 and 12 dollars. I recommend cauliflower tempura and the ice cream samplers, very tasty. Service as also great, Jen our server excellent, and all the staff I interacted with were friendly. The happy hour prices are actually very good for the Las Vegas Strip, and the Foundation Room is worth a visit.

Had a group for a birthday, got a table and a bottle... having a great time but within the hour the security started to eyeball our friend.. we noticed right away. (He happens to be the only gay man in our group and the only black male) While dancing they asked him to move up for some random reason.. he moved up but must of not been enough because this security dude decided to say "I guess you don't know how to f***ing listen". He felt they were being homophobic towards him. So he decided to just go back to our table... the second he was alone security came up to him and asked him to come with them. We all saw this and walked up to see what was going on. Security told us our friend had to go with him. Instead of fighting with security we all decided to leave... they would not let us leave!! and only let our friend leave. We cannot believe an establishment would target the only gay man in our group to the point he had to leave the club, for DANCING. Nobody else was asked to move or even talked to, what was the issue? We will never return and will share with all of the people in the community to stay away.

Everytime, my husband and I go to Vegas, we have dinner at the exquisite Foundation Room. We love the ambience. The decor is like stepping into a french chateau, old world charm. Beside the beautiful atmosphere, the cuisine is delectable. We always feel very welcome from start to finish. David, our waiter, was so knowledgeable in helping us select our appetizers and main course. Which was perfect in plating and taste.  We met the manager, Kaloni, to compliment her on David and the food. It was refreshing to see someone that is so enthusiastic about her staff and proud of the Foundation Room. Kaloni was kind enough to give us a tour of private rooms. Which are spectacular. A grateful thank you to David, Kaloni, the chef and staff for making our visit memorable.

Finally adding my review. We came here a while ago and both my wife and I loved it. Bread service was a nice touch. We split the dry-aged bone-in ribeye, a baked potato and a side of foie gras. The view both inside and out is amazing. This is a really decadent restaurant and high on my list to come back to again.

We came here to check out the new happy hour at 6 pm on a Sunday. The gentleman who checks you at the elevator was rude to us as we got there at 5:48 instead of 6:00. Really? Felt like we were at the DMV. Then you up the elevator to check in with hostess and got seated in the bar area. There is like a $25 minimum per person to sit on the couches. That is fine. The happy hour menu was nice. Nice selection of drinks and starters at a good price. $7 beers. Loved the breaded cauliflower. Wings were dry, but spiced. The ice cream cones were great! The weird thing in there is they came over and needed us to give one drivers license. We are over middle age. The place is showing its age with chipped paint scratched windows, and stained couches. Really nice view to take your glass of wine out on the terrace. Our server was really nice. Would recommend for happy hour.

One of my favorite places on the strip to dine and as a local that's saying a lot. The view is impeccable as is the service and the food. I highly recommend the rib cap and the tempura cauliflower. The interior is some of the most interesting decor in any lounge on the strip as a lot of it is hand carved and made of real wood.

Foundation Room offers a cool experience in Las Vegas. We really enjoyed the bao buns! If the service was better I would give a 5/5 but it took a LONG while to get our check and we were rarely checked up on. The view is absolutely stunning and it's an experience I would try out at least once!

Went to the Foundation Room for the first time to watch some live music. You check in downstairs and take an elevator up to floor 63. You check in again either to the bar or restaurant. We went to the bar. There are a few tables (reserved) and open seating at the bar. The space isn't too big. We first went outside on the balcony to check out the view. It was still very warm out so we went back inside. The bar tenders are all very friendly and service was great. For drinks we ordered the Good Karma Margarita & Lagunitas. For appetizers we got the Charcuterie & Cheese and the Japanese Yellowtail Tartare Tacos. Everything was very good. There was a tv at the bar. The live music was set up in the center of the lounge and we had great seats. Noise level is perfect. Good crowd mix. We went back outside again before we left and the view was beautiful at night! Highly recommend the Foundation Room!

I am outdating myself, but we/I used to hang out here when this was the mix, restaurant and bar, club, etc. Quality/Quantity - Drinks are so much more affordable now, see menu! Thank you. Still beautiful views, see pictures. Sauvignon Blanc - Not New Zealand, but still good. Louis Jadot Pouilly - Fuisse - Good. Simple bar menu, see pictures. Atmosphere - 63rd floor! Private direct elevator. Beautiful views of the strip. Beautiful decor, although I actually liked the mix decor better. Many private lounges and rooms, see pictures. Bar seating and outside patio seating. Service - Members only program. Bottle service, bottle locker service. Our bartenders were good and friendly. Price - $33 + generous tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success 2006...?

Third time is not a charm! My family and I stopped in for the third time here, not wanting to give up because the atmosphere is so cool and you can't beat the view, and the old Vegas feel. They DO NOT know how to cook a steak here. You would think this caliber restaurant, and prices, it would be right the first time! I order my steak charred & medium rare. My husband likes charred & medium plus, & son just medium rare. Every time, it's wrong. It's either well done for my husband, & or blue rare for me and my son, & they only charred my husband's steak. See pics. We get the same waiter, he remembered us and said he told the chef to pay special attention, so I don't know what happened. I couldn't eat my steak. My son tried but said it was super chewy and couldn't continue. So bummed because that was the last chance. The server noticed that all of our steaks were wrong, yet only took mine off the bill. Which I found odd knowing he knows the history of us trying this restaurant. You'd think he'd just take them all off since THEY messed up AGAIN so badly! Sad we won't be back.

Went with a couple of my co-workers for a girls night out and we chose Foundation Room as the place to dine and hangout afterwords. Due to the end of lent I had a fish dish. It was as tasteful as I thought it would be for $50. However the fish was meaty and it was presented beautifully. I can't remember our servers name but he wasn't around much. It was kind of hard to tell if he was the only server or not. 4 stars for overall experience 3 for service 4 stars for food, as I tried everyone else's food lol

Came on a Wednesday night before they started charging covers. I wasn't a fan of the antique look which gave me the creeps. The DJ was okay. He played some good throwback & pop music but transitioned too quickly or the flow wasn't right. It looked like there were a bunch of people coming from a conference or business related event since they were carrying backpacks, had lanyards on, or just looked very out of place. The main selling point of Foundation Room was the view from the outdoor patio which is where the majority of the people were. Lemon Drop & AMF ($46): The drinks were pretty good & strong but the quality wasn't there. The bartenders don't seem to be too careful when handling the drinks since they got sugar all over the Lemon Drop. Another lady we met that night also got sticky hands from the sugar on her drink.

The decor is really nice however the vibe is pretty much dead and the food is insanely pricey for what it is! Won't be returning again. The service was ok.

We visited the Foundation Room restaurant recently to celebrate our anniversary and really enjoyed it. We were seated quickly and once our first drink order was delivered, our server asked if we would like to enjoy it out on the patio overlooking the strip before getting our appetizer. We really liked that we were given that option and had the whole patio to ourselves. For an appetizer, we had the smoked beef tartare. Delicious! You could really taste the smoky flavor. For our dinner, we went with the scallops and a Wagyu steak. Both our meals were tasty and well prepared. Our mac and cheese and asparagus sides were also good. My favorite part though was stepping back out onto the patio after dinner for our after dinner espresso martini. The sun had set by this point and the view was great. And even better, the bar area behind us was packed but the restaurant patio had just a few people on it. Felt exclusive! I would definitely recommend for a special occasion meal!

This place is like a speakeasy because the casino floor has no signs to get here. I asked security for directions. The restaurant and lounge are owned and operated by House of Blues. You can tell by the similarity in interior design and furniture. I like the restaurant, which has a small outdoor lounge area with a nice view of The Strip. The lounge too has its own outdoor lounge area with a great view of The Strip. It's not crowded like a nightclub. The atmosphere and patrons are laid-back and unpretentious. The mixed drinks are very good. There is a bit of dancing indoors. Many patrons check the place out for a little while, then leave. This is not surprising, given the small size. Of course, there is nowhere to sit down unless you reserve a table with bottle service. Hence, the transient crowd. On a Saturday night, I observed that the peak time during late hours is 12:00-1:00 AM. Cover charge is collected at the elevator entrance on the casino floor. We avoided this by having reservations at the restaurant, which is open until 11:00 PM. To me, the lounge experience isn't worth more than a $10 cover charge.

Had dinner here to celebrate an anniversary, and there aren't many places in the city you'll find a better view. Great for sunset dining, or looking at the city lights after dark. It also got a boost recently with a great view of the new Sphere. The service was great, and David took good care of us including working with us on a slight time crunch to make our show. The food was all tasty. The crab cake were smooth and had a good pan fried crisp. The steak was flavorful and prepared well, as were the scallops. The braised mushrooms were a standout with great flavor and texture that paired well with the steak. The hassle back potato was a nice change on a traditional steakhouse potato with similar toppings.

I mean, it's been a while since I went out and had a drink with other young professionals (I've been caged in a hole in my house, watching twisted murder shows on discovery plus and hulu). So when VIP Social Club hosted an event here, I decided to drag myself out of the house, even though it was already dark out, and come and be social. I didn't regret it! The bar is decorated with a bunch of buddha statues and have that old school hookah bar vibe. Unfortunately there are no windows aside from some sweaty ones way high over the bar where you can't see anything out of. But you can get a view of the beautiful strip from their balcony. There's seating up there too but it looks to be reserved. Bartenders were friendly and the shots looked decent. The drinks I tried were also fine. I didn't order anything fancy so it's hard to screw up. I say this is a cute place to get a drink or go on a date. It may be good to check first to make sure there's not an event b/c the day I went there were multiple events and the place was packed.

Exceptional food along with fantastic service from Dave makes this place a must try on your next visit to Vegas. There is a great little balcony that you can get epic views of the strip!

Wow had a blast here. The DJ was awesome she was killing it the entire night. Thank you for helping get my life on Saturday night! We had a section and we were turnt up celebrating my besties wedding #Foundation thank you for elevating our experiences while in Las Vegas

No wardrobe concerns for happy hour. My husband and I dressed up thinking we had to. We had our weddimg reception there 20 years ago. No longer exclusive.

We came here for a group dinner last night and left disappointed. This place used to be top notch in terms of food, services, and environment, but all that's left now is a great view and lackluster food and poor services. To get to foundation room, there is a separate elevator that takes you directly up there but it is hidden in a corner that's away from the main elevators to the rooms, and more directions would be great. We finally made it up there and got seated, and the server Raymundo, greeted us in a friendly but awkward way. He immediately asked if we wanted water, which was good, but when we insisted on tap water, he gave us a weird look and walked away. He then came back and asked if we wanted any other drinks and pushed for alcohol, which most of us aren't drinkers. We ordered a coke and he looked annoyed as we didn't order any other drinks. My wife decided she wants to try one of their cocktail ($21!), he finally let off and was smiling again. Just a few minutes later he came back again and took our food order. He didn't make any suggestions for appetizers and just assumed we weren't going to order any. We ended up ordering the charcuterie board, shrimp cocktail for appetizer, and had bone in ribeye (normal and dry aged) filet mignon (6oz) market fish (salmon) and scallops. We also got creamed spinach, potato purée, and fries to share as our sides. We went out to the balcony to take pictures and came back to appetizers that had been sitting on our table for who knows how long. It would've been nice to alert us that appetizers were ready instead of them sitting on the table. Entree arrived after about 15 minutes, and they were overall average but not great like they used to be. The steaks were cooked to the temperature we ordered, and the scallops/salmon were good. The spinach and purée were delicious, but the fries were old and stale. We decided to skip dessert as we were full, and he once again gave us a look that made us feel uncomfortable. This wasn't the service that is expected from a restaurant with their price point. I'd definitely look elsewhere as there are way better options on and off the strip, and the only thing saving this place is it's views, which you can get next door at their bar.

This is one of the best low key spots at the bottom of the strip for a drink and cigar. It's not usually too crowded before dinner and has an awesome view of the strip and airplanes taking off and landing (cannot hear them). A bonus, you can smoke cigars which they sell on site as well, outside on the Balcony where the view is. Service staff is friendly and drinks reasonably priced. Definitely worth a visit!

First off, the ambience and location is fantastic. The views are amazing and the restaurant is intimate. We were a party of 11 and had a private room, off to the side of the main dining area. Private room had a nice large window with a nice view. The service was average, or I would say below average. The server was attentive and polite, however the busser that assisted him lacked customer service skills and was not pleasant. Overall the food was good, however the rib eye that I got was below average. The steak was not warm and appears to have been left sitting out too long, or not under a warming lamp, after cooking prior to serving. In addition, it was a little bland.

***PLEASE read the following experience upon arriving to my companies private party for my accomplishments in 2023. Upon providing my credentials and confirmation of invitation the 3 doorman would not allow me to enter because I did not have ID. My invitation and credentials were confirmed and I was not given the requirement a photo ID was necessary. the men never attempted to retrieve an executive which rented the venu for those who qualified nor did they request a manager when I asked for one. I am 49 years old, significantly older than the legal age and I dont believe I was required to even drink alcohol therefore there was zero basis of denying entry to my own celebration party. Upon asking for names which was denied I attempted to take photos to document. this horrific experience. As you can see one of the doorman turned on his light in attempts of hiding who was responsible for such a disrespectful, alarming and disgusting behavior to a patron who was simply stopping in to see my colleagues and piers. I would never recommend this establishment which would treat a customer with the basic fundamentals of common courtesy.

Despite the winning view, the overall experience is degraded because this place is trying to punch above its weight. What I mean is, the experience is sold as high-end, the staff think they are in a high-end establishment, and the prices are definitely in the rarefied air of top tier restaurants. But the service and the food are, middling. The hostess is stationed at the main floor elevator, with an inexplicable two helpers and cordoned off access to the elevator. Pronouncing our reservation, one of the crew, presumably a bouncer, ceremoniously opens the cordon for us to enter. Simultaneously, the hostess radios up to the restaurant announcing our party's imminent arrival. It felt like the most unnecessary secret service operation ever. Arriving at the top floor, the dimly lit elevator bay and restaurant lobby are kind of pan Asian in decor, not at all matching the very limited and conventionally American menu. We are told to wait until at least half our party arrives. The place is not packed - it's just more ceremony to inflate the hype. Service was professional but at times slow. The food was ok. I had the salmon which was done ok but starting to lean on the overcooked side. I avoided the steak because the only reasonably priced option was for a 6 oz at USD 62. Anything bigger than that and we were in to the $70-80 range. My colleague had the 6 oz and it was not value for money by any stretch. The best thing about the meal was the roasted potato side that came with the salmon. It was crispy on the outside and layered finely to create a nice textural effect on the palate. Vegas is a lot of show with no substance. In fact, negative substance. But you don't come here for the substance. You come here for the food, the shows, the gambling if that's your bag, and the electricity of the city's party atmosphere. Restaurants like this are nothing more than tourist traps with out-of-touch pricing and pure hype to keep people coming through the doors. In a way, The Foundation Room is apropos of the true Las Vegas experience: expensive, average, and not worth the trip.

Foundation is a good lounge and nite club. It's a little pricey, but the same price as a typical Las Vegas nite club. It's located at the top of the Mandalay Casino hotel. You have to take a specific elevator and go through security to get there. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The balcony area of the club has an amazing view of the Las Vegas strip. I had a great evening and recommend this lounge for a night life activity.

today was a very important day for me Familia we laughed we drink we ate good food, but most importantly, we celebrated my son six birthday. He grows up so fast look at him with his cute little cowboy hat and you know what this dinner was a little bit too long like four hours, but when they brought that surprise cupcake everyone to the table did not know how to react and yes, our waiter was gag worthy, amen

Summary for the busy executive: Meh. The view here is stellar, the decor is cool, and the go-go dancers are sexy. And that's about it. This review is for the bar/"nightclub" (if you use the term very, very loosely) only. I have not eaten at the restaurant. The Foundation room sits 63 floors in the air, at the top of the Mandalay Bay. Its most striking feature is its long balcony. Since the bar sits on the far south end of the Strip with no netting or glass, the view is in fact really impressive. You can see the large resorts in their neon glory, and you also get a commanding view of the east side of the Vegas valley. You pay for the privilege of looking out over this expanse. It costs $20 per person to access the elevator. On the night that I visited, ladies were free, and the bar gave free drink coupons to every visitor. Since I am a Vegas local, they gave me two coupons for free "well" drinks or standard wine/beer options, and they gave my lady companion a ticket for a free champagne or vodka based cocktail. This might seem cute to the management, but it wasn't cute to my companion, who is a bourbon gal, and who found the "lady drink" idea to be a bit sexist. Still, the free drink coupons did make the $20 elevator ride easy to swallow, since they more than balanced out the cost. Drinks at this bar are staggeringly expensive, as they are at most Strip locales. When I ordered a Maker's Mark on the rocks, the bartender initially said that the charge was $21 (that's about 3x a standard price in a normal Vegas bar off-Strip). So one free drink coupon paid for the elevator charge exactly, and the two additional free coupons made it a pretty good deal, honestly. The decor is pretty swanky. It has a Victorian vibe, with velvet and gilding and a big wooden bar. Southeast Asian decorations and go-go dancers scantily clad in pseudo Egyptian costumes lend more flair; one might imagine oneself in 1960s San Francisco. Velvet couches and quasi private rooms flank the main bar area. As cool as it seems initially, there are serious flaws at the Foundation Room that make it a definite once-and-never-again experience. The room's size is a major issue for what they're trying to do. They want to appeal to the 20-something crowd with a "nightclub" atmosphere with bottle service and dancing and the like. But the space is really too small for such an approach. It would make an awesome cozy and romantic bar. As a dance and party venue, it's so tiny that it could feel claustrophobic. More damning is the extremely poor decision not to provide any seating to customers who haven't bought bottle service. No barstools. No patio seating. No high tops. Nothing. Given that all of the outdoor tables were vacant and most of the indoor ones were also not taken while I was there, it was pretty irritating to stand at the crowded bar and out on the balcony, drink in hand. This is definitely a poor place for a date. My wife in high heels was unimpressed. Even worse, and really unforgivable, is the bar stock. Once again, the early-20s crowd is obviously the target audience here, and management must think that people that age have pedestrian tastes. Want a Rusty Nail? Sorry: they don't have Drambuie. Want a sloe gin fizz, even without egg whites? No luck, since they don't have sloe gin. Want a high proof bourbon? Nope. What they *can* do is sell you a single Jack Daniel's serving for the price of a bottle, or a whole bottle of Absolut for the price of a video game console. By Vegas bar standards, where you can basically get everything you want everywhere, this bar sucks. On the up side, the bartenders were amazingly fast and super polite. The tourist clientele was wowed by the views, and the party atmosphere was fun for a 30-minute drink. But as a local, I won't be back here (and I won't be recommending it to my out-of-town guests) unless the Foundation Room gets some bar stools and stocks their liquor shelves.

We really love Foundation Room and of course Mandalay Bay so we go back as often as we can and as a former MGM RESORTS international employee I'm really glad that they kept the property up. The atmosphere is great. They always have new, exciting restaurants and also being in cyber security. I really enjoy their conventions there as there's plenty of places to eat, drink, as well as restrooms, unlike many of the other convention spots in town.

One of my vegan trip happen to be in the club again, not surprised at all. Lol But luckily, I stumbled upon this bar on a Tuesday night, which turned out to be pretty decent amount of crowd and fun energy! ;) We we're looking for another rooftop bar called Skyfall, but it was closed that night for a private party. So A security guard suggested us going here, the foundation room, so we thought, great'! We'll take the elevator up to the rooftop floor and walk in, but no! to ask the elevator man, who pointed us to The ground floor register to pay $20 for an advanced pay ticket in order to get in, but the ticket can also be claimed for any of the free general drink (which means no cocktail, but only simple drink like beer, Gin & tonic, and Rum & Coke. The ticket only needs to be purchased by gentlemen because the entrance is free ladies ;) We had a great time viewing LV at night, nice dance, AMAZING MUSIC mixed by a good DJ who I forgot to get the name :p we'll be back the next time I'm in town!

We originally booked a reservation at The Foundation Room in Las Vegas for a romantic evening to celebrate our anniversary. Somehow the reservation was canceled without any notice, seemingly due to some sort of electronic/systems glitch. We arrived at the restaurant and was told that a private event was in progress and we were absolutely livid and emotionally disappointed. But behold, The Foundation Room management contacted us to rebook our reservation and comp'd our entire experience and provided a life changing 5 star service level to us to completely vindicate the past and make us whole in way that moved our emotions in a beautiful way! We are now in debt to The Foundation Room moving forward and will book our reservations here moving forward and beyond! We highly recommend!!!!!

Was a guest VIP for an event! Loved that it was exclusive to our event! The decor was wonderful there were dancers and lots of photo ops the drinks were fast and efficient and strong! Had a great time and security was cordial and friendly.

We hosted a private event here last night during a busy conference. Danny & the entire security team made the door/line registration process so easy and convenient. Views were amazing and the upstairs staff were also very helpful, and quick.

Had an amazing night in Foundation Room. Brian Pfeiffer, the VIP Host, (phone number 773-459-8133 ) set up our VIP table for us and it was all ready for us by the time we arrived. Service was excellent. Music was great! It wasn't too crowded and we were able to chill, drink, dance and chat all night long

Cane here in December 2023 and had a great time! I made reservations to dine here and showed up on time. The hostess said our table wasn't ready and apologized, and we could have a seat at the lounge. After 15 minutes, the hostess came to us and apologized again, that our table wasn't ready. The manager, who I assume, came out and apologized and bought the next round of drinks. I have to say the hospitality in this place was amazing. From the door man in the outside patio to our server. I felt appreciated, and that goes far. From the drinks, food, ambiance, and the staff, 5 stars here. A must do while you're in Vegas!

Had not been here for over 7 years. Had a 6pm reservation (when they open). Got told that we would need to wait in the lounge. Finally, at 6:30pm they came to get us. Bread service was immediately placed on the table. Took over 10 minutes to get a server to order drinks. Food was Ok. Not great. Ambience / Decor had not changed since I was there last. It smelled musty and dust was on everything. The carpet was frayed and may have also been the same as my first visit. Service was slow. You are basically paying for the view. Don't go if you have something scheduled afterward.

Fantastic little lounge for a little weeknight drinking and dancing. Doesn't get too crazy and you're not jostling for room to dance or at the bar. Probably a little more hectic on the weekends but that's to be expected. Spectacular views of the strip from the patio! Went on a Tuesdat night, Service was ok, drinks were disappointing. $25 for a French 75 (not nearly as good as Mon Ami Gabi up the strip) and $15 for the worst vodka cran Ive ever had. Music was great in my opinion, lots of 2010's club music which is my fave, as well as some pop classics and a sprinkle of top 40. Overall I'll probably be back, but I will be more careful with my drink selection.

We had a wonderful dinner and experience at the Foundation Room located at the top of the Mandalay Bay Hotel. The service was outstanding from the moment we arrived. The hostess staff went above and beyond to make sure we were seated in a very nice location with a fabulous view. Christopher, the Operations Supervisor, was very accomodating and provided a terrific wine pairing that went well with our meals. Our server, Shawn, was exceptional and was very knowledgeable about the specials and was very attentive. His nice personality and friendliness made us feel welcome. Thanks to the entire staff that made our evening so special.

I don't get the hype. Food was good and seevice decent. Nothing to complain about, however I've had so much better in Vegas.

Great ambiance! I wasn't too hungry so my boyfriend and I shared the chicken. I like that the waiter was able to split the chicken. I really appreciated that! The salad was great and the bread was pretty good as well. The waiter was very friendly. It does turn to a bar/ club at night. The view is beautiful!! It's a good place to try if you don't want to go thru the hassle of eating on the strip.

Take the private elevator to this special restaurant on top of Mandalay Bay. Ideal for dates, special occasions or just a good meal overall. The views are spectacular here - especially if you take your drinks outside for stunning views of the marquee and Vegas Strip. Food was outstanding. I had the salmon which was fresh, flavorful and prepared well. The wedge salad was also outstanding and the bread basket was complimentary fresh and plentiful. Service was attentive and outstanding and the prices were fair. Great beverage selection as well.

So we were craving steak and wanted to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday, but it was late when we were done getting ready. We had an idea most steakhouses would be closed by then. Luckily we found this place that stays open late. So I made a reservation for 1015, and when we arrived there we saw many people lined up and soon we discovered it was also a lounge, which we found to be very convenient. So they took us up an elevator to the last floor on the Mandalay Bay. As soon as we can in we noticed the low lights and romantic ambience, which was perfect for the occasion. We were seated by the window that had a patio view where a DJ was playing music. I thought that was pretty nice. So we ordered some drinks and our main course since it was late. My drink was light and had a good flavor to it. My guy's was "an original" something. All I know is it was very, very strong. He only needed one Both of us ordered the 6 oz filet, medium well, with a side of asparagus and puréed potatoes. Our steak was undercooked to our liking, but very flavorful and tender all around. We enjoyed the outside parts and left just the inner bloody part, which was about an inch. Not too much. The puréed potatoes and asparagus were also delicious! Perfect seasoning on all of the items! Our server was very attentive as well so we had a great experience overall. I personally live for the views. Especially rooftop views. I hope to come back and get some dancing on

Loved it!! Had such a good time. The music was great and the drinks were priced a little fairly. Check them out if ever you're in the area.

Wanted to find a lounge with a great view. I contacted a gentleman named Eric. He was an amazing host. He made our visit exceptional. He responded to our text and coordinated our party to perfection. I suggest to ask for Eric for any Vegas needs. He is very knowledgeable about everything going on in Vegas.

A beautiful view, but the food was very subpar. Three of us had rather pricey steaks that were cold and dry. They offered to reheat them and brought us a free dessert. Disappointing.

Celebrated a milestone birthday for our awesome friend! Hadn't been here in years and the decor is the same, that Mediterranean vibe which The Foundation Room is known for! We had a couple of VIP tables and we were treated exceptionally well. The waitresses were so gracious and attentive.

This place is gorgeous, the lighting and the view. It's a must go. The drinks are decent, no complaints. Haven't had my best drink there but haven't had my worse neither.

Phenomenal food, even better service. Joey our server was incredibly attention, kind and made our evening. Thank you to the wonderful staff!

This place has gone downhill. Used to be one of the best in Vegas but not anymore. Service is lacking big time. Many mistakes with our order and quality of the steaks not great. That said the place being at the top of the Mandalay Bay still has the wow effect. Hopefully the fix their service issues.

There are two sides, a restaurant and a lounge. Restaurant 4 stars Lounge 2 stars. We were there on a Tuesday at 8:30pm and enjoyed the food. It was unique tasting and reasonable prices. Enjoyed the bone in dry-aged ribeye. Not sure how dry aged it was, when we asked our waiter she thought maybe 30 days. The flavor was definitely aged and had nice crust in areas. The Cesar salad was unique and I enjoyed it, fresh! The perfect G&T had sage and was a good cocktail. Scallops, very tasty. Staff is always there however give you "breathing room", they don't make you feel like you need to rush. There were a couple of older waiters who had good personalities and overall our experiences with staff were good! The view is pretty and worth experiencing on the restaurant side and we enjoyed the patio while we waited for our main entree. ****Lounge 2 stars **** I wanted to keep the experience going after dinner and went to the lounge. Disappointed!! Maybe I'm not the clientele they want, I'm a foodie. Bartender refused to give me any drink suggestions when I asked, they don't offer a menu after 9pm I was told. I asked for a recommendation and told that she doesn't give them because her opinion aren't usually the same. That was disappointing and honestly I would expect that attitude if the place is a dive during happy hour giving away drinks for $5, but two drinks cost $40 plus tip. So I would expect better service, while she smiled, it was not engaging and as if me being there was a waste of her time. I got an old fashion and it was one of the worse I've had, even though I asked for buffalo trace, don't know how that was possible, it tasted like a $5 drink from a bad dive bar!! Because of the interaction I didn't want to stay for more drinks I actually wanted to leave when I asked the bartender twice for suggestions, but thought maybe the drinks are just so good I won't be disappointed. I would expect this lack of service if lounge was packed, even then I was so surprised by the lack of service from a lounge, I would not go back to the lounge. There is no seating at the couches unless bottle service. The place was not crowded and only maybe 15 stools at the bar. Patio has a more straight on view and is pretty. The ppl that were there had one drink and would leave. The DJ was good and would've been enjoyable to stay if you could find a place to hangout and if the bartender acted like your presence was wanted especially being the place was empty.
