Rhythm & Riffs Lounge

A definite spot to hang out if you are at MGM Mandley Bay. Nothing can beat the live music, ambience and the atmosphere here!

Was staying at the resort for a couple of nights and while we were playing in the casino heard the band start on a Monday night. They sounded pretty decent so we went to check them out before heading up to our room. 3 sets later and we were still there! The band and the people watching were FANTASTIC! We had a couple of drinks and service was a little slow but it really was no big deal because we were having a good time. There was a female drummer that kicked butt and the lead singer was entertaining to watch. I definitely recommend if you're looking to kill some time, support live music, dance and overall just have a good time. P.s. I did not see a drink minimum on a Monday evening.

This has been one of my favorite “chill” bars in Las Vegas. My Wife and I just got back recently, and again had a phenomenal time. Some of our favorite bar tenders were Raul, Jesus and Mario! A few other great bar tenders, but unfortunately don’t remember their names.

I had a calm evening and was able to relax and have a Midori sour before heading up to my room. The bartender was very friendly and made an excellent drink.

Excellent seating, bartenders know their stuff, and the live music was great. Some fun games too if you want: giant connect four, foosball, shuffleboard, and more. Screens for the game(s) and the bar area has digital poker if you want.

This lounge has live music on select nights. This was a Friday night so a band was playing. Weeknights you might just see a solo guitarist. Music performers appear to change nightly. There’s a bar and lounge area where you can also smoke. There’s a small dance floor as well.

There’s no consistency with the drinks or the staff. I ordered The Macallen 12 neat and the first couple of days the same bartender served em up nice. The 3rd day a Saturday I was greeted by a new group of bartenders and my scotch was served in a clear plastic cup; absolutely unacceptable. I’m at a bar in a resort casino not a frat party. In the mornings I was ordering Irish coffees and again the first couple of days were great! Coffee, Jameson, and Baileys. That Saturday the bartender offered me cream and sugar and said Baileys would be extra. WTH man this was also unacceptable. For $18 a cup I would have thought they’d make it right. On top of that the bar smelled like stale beer, lime and stagnant water. For a large resort style casino this bar was actually awful.

I've never been so disappointed in a bar in Las Vegas as I am today. We've been bypassed by the waitress at least six times. They have a sign on the bar two drink minimum per person. Which is a horrible because what if you all want to just sit for a minute and have a drink. The service is crap. I don't think I look poor, I can afford to be here. They need a new system and new waitresses
