Foundation Room Review

Beautiful amazing view in the day time, i cant imagine how cool it is at night. A man approached me in the lobby handed me two tickets to go see the view, so glad i did go. Ordered a grill cheese sandwich for 12.00. And enjoyed the shade on the 61 floor. At night they charge an admission but wow, its worth it!

Awesome views, drinks, music and dancers! Got complimentary tickets and 2 free drinks for me!

First time here. Went to the bar but ending outside sitting on the couch. Food some how okay, views are great. But the mayor the disappoinment was the drinks(Old Fashioned & Manhattan) and service outside is not great.

Amazing view, bouncers, door men and VIP host!!! Chris was great and thanks to him we will be back

Elevator ride up to the 43rd floor (the building only has 43 floors so the statement that this restaurant/lounge is on the 64th floor is only bc of Mandalay Bay's bizarre floor numbering not reality) - one party per ride. Ride down - all aboard!! How quickly "the rules" are overlooked. Had to search for hostess. "Hi guys." Wow how professional. Table not set upon arrival. Utensils rolled in a napkin, water and bread placed on opposite side of table requiring us to distribute them (are we at Cracker Barrel?!). You can sit outside in the 110 heat if you like - but you only know of this option if you're in the know. Then, if you stand up, you may have a view of the distance Strip down the Blvd or a decent view of the airport. If you sit inside you will have a view of the folks sitting outside sweating - nothing else. Don't stress over the dress code for "a sophisticated night out" multiple diners were wearing shorts, even one in a pair of cut off jeans. Menu and food were nothing special. Dishes not cleared. Water not refilled. Didn't bother ordering a second glass of wine since dinner was long over by the time the server resurfaced. Tab $150 for 2. Went to Ri Ra Irish Pub for dessert of a wonderful baked to order bread pudding, traditionally prepared Irish coffee and attentive service. Don't waste your money. If you want to see what's up there - go to the lounge.

This place is really Racist avoid it bartenders are really rude

We re local and wanted to take our guests somewhere cool for dinner. We were greeted by James Lorenzo at the elevators and thought this was going to be really awesome. As soon as we got upstairs we didn t know where to go and the hostess walked by us totally ignoring us until I asked here if she worked there. She then wouldn t seat us, as we asked, but said we had to find the rest of our party before being seated. I ve never heard of that. Her attitude was a bit of a red flag and I almost wanted to go somewhere else but our guests arrived. Dinner service was extremely slow despite the restaurant being half empty. We sat forever with empty drinks and had to keep flagging people down for a glass of wine. The food was fairly good, except the steak which had a strange metallic taste but no other flavour. sadly this place had NO idea how to provide the kind of service that would justify the price of the bill. We opted out of dessert or coffees because we had already felt that we were treated poorly and didn t want to give them any more money. The view is the single redeeming quality of this place but I would never return.

Great place, amazing view, cigar friendly outside on the patio.

The DJ and music sucked so bad last Tuesday, maybe it was her first time Djing. Great view but over priced drinks, no more free parking. Wasn't worth the mission.

Amazing view of the strip! Usually a $20 cover, unless you have a Nevada ID or some "persuasive" friends with you. Good place to start/end the night.

Great views, atmosphere, and drink selection. With the visit while in Vegas

Super rude hostess with a bad attitude. We've been up there before and weren't required to wear business casual, but post covid it seems as though the dress code has changed. Thanks Mandalay. Won't be back.

I went bottle service at a few clubs in Vegas and Foundation Room was hands down the best experience.
They made me and my guests feel like rockstars.. All the staff including our server, security and a special shout out to Luis.. Book it in!! Plus it has the best view of the strip..
I can't thank them enough, I will be back

Nice place in the 63rd floor Mandalay bay. Happy hour specials are good and it offers a great outdoor view of the strip. Would recommend this if your looking for something a little bit different than the usual upscale Vegas restaurants

Said I could not go up wearing shorts - said policy was all over the website. Unfortunately I could not find such policy on the website - believe it was an act of discrimination.

Nice club with gorgeous views of the strip! Hidden gem

Great View, not the "happening" place it was years ago, but good stop for a more chill type club. Old School Indian/Thai feel with lots of wood and incense....that's what I'm calling it. The guy at the rope downstairs asked if we were on a "list"!? NO LINE, NO BODY--just us on a Sunday PM. "A list? For what?" LOL

The room was a bit small, maybe if you have less than 30 people would be good, bar, enough seats for 30 ppl maybe, window view, wasn't bad, wasn't perfect, but was decent. Good for small events

Loved this place!!! The balcony view was amazing and the dancers they had walking around and dancing were so awesome! Great music and great vibes!!!

Grabbed a quick bite to eat here. Didn't have a formal dinner. Nice quite place for dinner and service was great. We had their crab cakes, and ceviche. It was awesome!

We also went the the foundation lounge. After 9pm it becomes a lounge/ club with music. An older crowd. We had a lot of fun!! Definitely recommend!

Great view if the strip. Perfect place to watch the sun go down and las vegas light up

Went with good friends and enjoyed the whole experience. The service was insanely fast and the private room was top notch. DJ was excellent and the drinks/food were spot on. I will definitely make my way back. Cheers.

The Foundation Room is a superb dining experience. A limited menu of mostly fish and steak but what is served is excellent. The wait staff are great. The decor of the rooftop location is a gorgeous view day and night. The bar has good stock but the bartenders are only familiar with pedestrian drinks and don't measure ingredients. Since they free pour the result varies. I will make it a point to come here every time when in Las Vegas.

Would have loved to go, had free passes to get in even, but they don't allow shorts for men. It's "fine dining" they say, you must wear pants, even if they are old dirty jeans vs. a nice pair of shorts and top.

Pros:
Great rooftop view if you can find space to stand. The bartenders are quick with drink orders and there are cool female dancers.

Cons:
Really small space, there's no room to move or dance. A fat white bouncer shines a flashlight in your face randomly when you come inside from the balcony. The local bar is bigger than this place. There's nothing special about this club just has a small balcony with a nice view.

Spent the early evening up here to have some adult beverages and bask in the view. It can't be beat as one of the best kept not-so-secret spots in Las Vegas! The views of the Strip and the city are absolutely breathtaking. And then there's the top quality food. I highly recommend ordering the cauliflower tempura as an appetizer off the bar menu - cant get enough of that goodness! Great place to have drinks, great food, and spectacular views.

We had a great time! Got a VIP table with VIP service. Ben Gabriel was there to greet us when we arrived and his staff took great care of us the rest of the evening. We especially appreciated Javier looking out for us. Such a sweetheart! The drinks were great, the view was amazing and the music was a perfect mix. Thank you for a wonderful time!!

It showed the place was open, when we arrived it was closed. I am sure it's great with great view but not being able to do business properly ruin it for me.

Boyfriend had the crab cakes. Went back to the hotel and threw up immediately. We missed our flight this morning. He's been throwing up for the last 12 hours.

Nice view up on the roof. A bit sombering to look across the road and see where to shootings took place, and the blood stains still there.

Amazing!!!
Drinks, food , service, very elegant. Felt like a King. This is fine dinning.

Absolutely the worst service in Vegas. Seated and completely ignored as the tables sat after us were all waited on promptly.

What a tremendous let down.

A tiny club with over priced drinks rude employees. Save your self the trouble and check out a real club like Hakkasan or Omni instead.

Best place for an epic scenic view of Las Vegas Blvd. Excellent mixology cocktails and unique ombience. Best time to visit is around sunset!

Once we were up at the restaurant, we were immediately sat near the window with some great views of the strip. The views continue as you are free to walk out onto the terrace to check out the strip, planes landing/taking off at Mc Carren airport. Just an amazing experience.

Our wait staff was nothing short of awesome, very attentive and even explained the history and background of the Foundation Room and its great

Food - AMAZING!!!!!!! We have eaten at most some great steakhouses in the Las Vegas, but honestly this place was just awesome. My husband had a filet while I had lobster and honestly, some of the best lobster I have ever had with some very mouth watering flavoring.

I felt like this place is overrated, but the view and food make up for it. We got this artistically amazing looking grilled cheese sandwich.

Inside, outside availability with a pretty view of the city. Not so many places to sit, unless you want a VIP table. Usually pretty crowded.

First time at the Foundation room. Beautiful place great music! Can t rate the food cause after about an hrs never got ask or aproached by a waitress or waiter to get food or drinks. I try the bar to get some drinks, bartender said waitress will be right with you. After about an hr we made the decision to just leave. We discovered we have the power of invisibility. Beautiful place. Service can t say nothing good about it

THE best view in Vegas! Friendly staff, good people, all smiles, but the view, oh, that view!

Order the Filet Mignon...ask for Pittsburgh style (charred outside) and blue in the middle. You'll LOVE it! Great views from the outdoor balcony. Our waiter, David, was amazing!

Very interesting decor. Amazing views. Definitely a cool experience and worth a stop in if your staying at the Mandalay Bay. I didn't feel like the experience was particularly unique or ground breaking, but still gets 4 stars.

VIP treatment all the way with Captain Craig. A pleasure!

WOW!!! What a view! Such a cool place. If you get the opportunity to visit this place you have to go. The experience is top notch. Great atmosphere.

We had a good time. The view was everything as it is on the top of the Mandalay Bay Resort.
Prices were insanely expensive in the bar.
All the female bar tenders were extremely rude and ignorant. The only great bartender was the only male bar tender in the place.
The music was good until around 12:30am. When it turned into an indian bar/club. We felt like we were on vacation in mumbai all of a sudden.
Thats when we and most of the place left. Not intelligent on the behalf of the management.

Small for Vegas. It was shoulder to shoulder and I'm sure the occupancy was over fire code in there especially out on the balcony. We had one drink which was acceptable and left.

Small theater for more "intimate" concerts, very good sound and atmosphere. We were there for the Santana concert.

Very nice decor. There is a members only section. Music was hip hop, rap dance. It was ok. Not busy on a Thurs. night, the week before 4th of July. Music may be better on Fri/Sat. Outside small terrace has a fantastic view of the strip at night. Worth seeing.

Nice happy hour options. Good food and drinks at a reasonable price. Also the view...

Good drinks, affordable table service, banging tunes, and the best view all the way up the strip.

Beautiful views nice vibe drinks are good didnt get to try the food. Staff was very nice and respectful would definitely go again..

Wonderful view on the balcony the music played could use some TCL. Food was good and decent portions served. Would definitely recommend visiting to anyone.

Quality experience with a great waitres and atmosphere. Good place to retreat to with someone special or a group of friend's.

Great food
Great service
Great views

Worst place ever! This place doesn't have anything at all.

I was at Mandalay for a work conference. My wife and I spoke to a gentleman on the casino floor and got put on the VIP guest list, which allowed us to bring all of my coworkers and their guests to the club for free, with free drinks for the ladies. It gave us a very exclusive feel and was an amazing experience. Very tight security, and all of our top executives ended up at the club the same night which tells me it's the place to be if you're staying near Mandalay. Greatest view in Vegas is their claim, and I would agree.

Great location for the view, and great environment. Just felt it was missing a "buzz".

Great house of blues, a bit small, but very nice ambience

Visited first time on 4th of July. Great views from the balcony, watched fireworks pop all around the city. Great Bartender, she was beautiful, smart and fast with great drinks. Brought two amazing women in my life with me, and they never stopped smiling! What more can you ask for? Recommended.

My go to place when in town. Great small club vibe

RIP off told we were going to get free drinks and end up paying!!!

Nice view of the city. Loud hip Hop music. $10 beers. Security won't let you carry any legal weed with you. But, there is a nice view.

most amazing views on the strip!!! great drinks and service. We used it for a private party, absolutely beautiful and will definitely come back.

The view from the Foundation Room patio is pretty epic. It is a very crowded and popular place for obvious reasons. Be warned, they do close it down sometimea if there is high winds. A dress code is in full effect, so make sure you meet their requirements.

Great view of the strip and nice romantic ambiance.. perfect for date and nice food.. very reasonable price.
