Pool Side Eats at Mandalay Bay's Beach Bar and Grill

- It's starting to get hot in Vegas and so I thought it would be a fun idea to check out the pool side restaurants on the Las Vegas strip. I've never eaten at a pool side restaurant and I so this would be a fun series to start. Kicking off the series I'm at the Mandalay Bay Beach, one of the most popular pools in Las Vegas. I'm going to their Beach side Bar and Grill and trying a lot of their food because
Every restaurant is a buffet if you're willing to pay

Tourist prices for mediocre food. $17 for taquitos that doesn't even include guacamole or salsa. The shame of it all 😂😂. Thanks Shin for the vlog!
Yeah, this place was not exactly the epitome of Vegas dining lol. Thanks for watching!
Shin always gives an honest, thorough review for any place at which he dines, which is why he's my favorite reviewer for Vegas eats.
Happy to hear it! I'm trying my best out here lol. Thanks for watching!
Chin is going to be a superstar when it comes to food reviews , his detailed remarks and reviews about each food item is so precise and informative, he needs to go to other countries and review all the types of food in each country, that will elevate him to the next level and he will compete with the likes of Mark Weins in which my opinion Shin is so much better and more charismatic on camera.
I don't know if I can really be talked about in the same breath as Mark Weins right now lol, but I do appreciate it. I'm having a lot of fun making CZcams videos and I'm happy so many are enjoying the content. Thanks for watching!
Agreed. Shin is great and, frankly, better than Mark Weins.
Mark Wiens eats of the world, and Shin eats of the Strip. Apples and oranges, baby~!
it's crazy how good his phrasing is, I often thing this must have been written and done after the video but then it'll go to him finishing the sentence right there like damn how does someone speak so well just on the fly like that lol it's super impressive and everything is perfectly described
"Orange Whip? Orange Whip? (To the waiter) Three Orange Whips!"-The Blues Brothers (1980).
Pool restaurant series is a great idea.
Orange whip? Who wants an orange whip? Classic. That's when you could get food in Vegas for less than going to the grocery store. Really. I know, I lived there.
LOL! That was a little before my time, but I do know the reference. I'm looking forward to checking out the pool side offerings here in Vegas also! Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin Really and truly, I could eat out for less than going grocery shopping. P.S. I do love your channel. Thank you. I love to see what was and what is.
A new series! And it couldn't be more timely. Love the way the Shin creative machine is always in the "on" position.
Thank you! I'm having a good time doing this so it's easier to stay on lol. Thanks for watching!
Great idea to review the poolside food. The Cosmo pool food was very good and the view from that pool is the awesome strip view. Check it out!!
It's like you read my mind! The Overlook is definitely part of the series. Thanks!
The wrap looked delicious and immediately made me hungry.....Great video!
I actually did like that wrap. It was tasty! Thanks for watching!
You are quickly becoming one of our favourite Vegas reviewers man!
I'm happy to hear I'm climbing the ranks! Thanks for watching!
I appreciate all your videos!
You are Awesome!
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!
Just like in craps, this looks like a hard pass for me - thanks Shin for all you do. So many better options out there in/near town as you’ve shown us. 🙌🥳🎉
Totally Agree
Happy to save you the trip! I think anyone going to Mandalay Beach can at least be informed as to what the options are like here. Thanks for watching!
IT REALLY LOOKS LIKE A FUN PLACE TO HAVE A NICE TIME. THE FOOD LOOKS GOOD. THANKS FOR SHARING, KEEP UP THE MAGNIFICENT JOB SHIN👍🏼😁
A very fun place here. I really like the pool at Mandalay Beach. Thanks for watching Tracey!
I love your videos. I’m concerned about how good the food will be at poolside restaurants. I’m anticipating a lot of burgers, hot dogs, and tenders which isn’t very interesting to me.
I thought the same initially, but as I started to look into pool side restaurant menus, I realized we definitely have more options to show than I originally anticipated and Mandalay's Beach Bar and Grill is the most basic I'd say. We're going a little more elevated from here next week! Thanks for watching!
Happy Saturday Shin! Fun video idea! Look forward to more. I'm A honey mustard person with chicken tenders. 🤗😎
Hopefully you've had a great weekend so far Amy! I'm looking forward to checking out these restaurants by the pool. It's all new to me. Thanks for watching!
Food looks Good
✌✌
I'm happy you thought so! Thanks for watching!
that's a good looking double patty burger
It was basic, but it was solid. Thanks panjo!
Welcome Spring/Summer!!!! We enjoyed as always. Much appreciated. Stay hungry for us!
Yes! These are some of the best times in Las Vegas! Thanks for watching!
Thanks Shin ! My kind of food indeed .Good job bud !
Thanks Kyle! Honestly, this is the kind of food that gets the job done. Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching!
As always a great honest review. Thanks!
Appreciate it, thank you!
$200!!! 🤪🤪🤪 - just get the $12 sundae and run! Noted! 🙏❤️
LOL! I actually do recommend the orange whip. I'd get that every time. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for takin’ us poolside Shin! 😊
Happy to have you along! Thanks for watching!
Glad you’re doing this series. Will def be watching.
I'm happy to hear that Laurel! I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching!
Everything looked wonderful but I will take that dessert all day long have a good weekend thank you for another great video ❤😊
That's exactly what I would do too Lori. I would go to the beach, get an orange whip, and enjoy by the water. Thanks for watching!
Your welcome I live in Georgia I can't say I've ever had an orange whip but it looked amazing ❤️
Prices are not too crazy considering location burger looked decent but the rest just looked like cafeteria food. Would be totally worth it if they put more effort in. Love this series. You’re gunna pay a premium anywhere near here so it’s nice to see a,Bierce and quality of food. Thanks shin!
The burger was burned. The shrimp was old. This is what I would feed to my pigs.
@@lynnefromthelake well you and your pigs live an extremely privileged life. Congrats.
@@andic8287 Thanks. People should demand more, particularly when spending their hard earned money.
I think each pool really tries to cater to the people who go. Mandalay is very family focused. The lazy river and wave pool attract a lot of children and so I can understand the menu being more like cafeteria food. Pools that have a more elevated clientele seem to also have matching cuisine. I'm looking froward to showing what these other places could be like. We'll see together. Thanks for watching!
Pool side and cabana food has always disappointed me. When I can do better at home it is not worth eating out.
This was my first poolside dining experience in Las Vegas and I'd say it hit about expectations. But I'm looking forward to checking out some of the more elevated locations here in Las Vegas. We'll see together how they stack up. Thanks for watching!
I was a waiter at the Paradise Cafe @ The Mirage in 1999 and 2000. Best job I ever had 🙏🏻
Nice! It looked like the staff were having a good time from what I could tell here too. Great vibes. Thanks for watching!
The Shrimp Cocktail and Caesar Salad/Wrap look like airline food - at airport pricing! Geesh! 😮😢
Maybe even a little bit more than airport pricing actually. Thanks for watching!
Love the Beach Bar and Grill at Mandolin Bay really cool beach vibe. Beach Favorite drink Strawberry Marguerita! Breakfast would be good. The loaded fries always my favorite! Taquitos look good but my favorite shrimp cocktail. Chicken tenders I love the honey mustard sauce with the chicken! The chicken BLT sounds like just normal. But I would like it. The double cheeseburger my favorite! I love that buns are grilled. Tater tots and fries are great. Hot dog is great bun grilled as well which I like. Love the fruit options orange so good. The southwest wrap looked so good I know I'll like that and the caeser salad!!!! Orange dessert looks very good. Love the southwest wrap and the burger at The Beach Bar and Grill. The whole atmosphere the pool. atmosphere
I love pools also! And the Mandalay Beach is one of the best truly. Great place. Thanks for watching!
Shin great job
Thank you very much!
I don't have anything to say about the food that hasn't already been said, but thank you for continuing to show us the things!
We're going to see it all together eventually! Every single restaurant on the strip, downtown and in the mega resorts. The good, the bad and the ugly together. Thanks for watching!
Hi Shin, I hope your Saturday is going well. I love Mandalay pools, and the food looks good for poolside food. I like how the vegetables for the double burger are served on the side
The Mandalay pool is one of the best in Vegas for sure. And I want to say this was about par for what I was expecting for pool side food. Thanks for watching!
“The orange-whipped sundae is so incredibly refreshing! I don’t think I would come here again [truth] and not get it [modest rebuttal].”
Lmao 🤣 That's funny. Thanks for watching!
The prices are insane, and I'm not talking Crazy Eddie... 😮
Prepackaged everything, basically, and, whoa there cowboy.. What's going on here?
For me, I'd love to see you check out the many mom n pop shops out there off the 'strip'.. Leave these bungling 'who cares' to the daily lugnuts coming off the boat.
Just from my obsessed yelp perusing, (I love food and I love menus), there are so many individual places to check out.
Shin, you always do a great job, your efforts are appreciated by this gal. 😊👍🌻🌶
Are you from New York?
My Tuesday video series focuses on local restaurants that are recommended to me and suggested by viewers and I think that is more of what you're talking about here. My Saturday videos are still my personal mission to try and vlog every restaurant on the strip, downtown and the mega resorts around the valley. I want to complete the collection. Thanks for watching!
Lol.... Sure. 😊 You?@@Onetwothreepeanuts
@VegaswithShin I love them all. 😊❤
@@nikip9161 I live out of state now but was born and bred in NYC. I knew it when you mentioned 'Crazy Eddie's'. That name definitely doesn't come up often. Lol.
I Look Forward To Your Twice A Week Reviews !........Very Enjoyable Shin.......A Personal Guided Tour Of Vegas !
I appreciate it! I'm happy that you're enjoying my videos. Thanks for watching!
Definitely the best pool in Vegas! I’m looking forward to this series!! Thanks Shin!
Such a great pool! I'm looking forward to this one too! Thanks Jay!
It was a great video from our favorite pool. And you had a salad!
Yes! First time I had a salad that I ordered! I think the first and only other salad was from Robert Irvine's Public House but that was because my friend got the salad and I just tried it lol. Thanks for watching!
I am back and I picked the right video to come back too. Those prices absolutely scream TOURIST RIP OFF! Lets go to 2:35 Shin got 4 snacks (as they call it there) off the menu: PRICES - Frozen Chicken Tenders and Costco Fries: 21$! Shrimp Cocktail with 4 WHOPPING SHRIMP with HEINZ cocktail sauce : 23$! Loaded Fired with a cheese sauce and bacon 13$ (Probably the best value)! THEN the store bought Taquitos covered in flour then fried again for 17$ (See Mandalay bay you didn't think I would notice that)! NOW Lets add up just the snacks with all food bought from COSTCO: 74$! What a great value seeing the cost to make all of that was around probably 8$! -- Then lets pick out the 32oz drink for 15$! The box of syrup cost around 30$ and that can make over a 100 of those 32oz drinks --> RIP OFF MODE ACTIVATED! Lets go on: 7:53 we have the 19$ Grilled Chicken _ Chik Fil a sandwich. I am sorry they used swiss not American so maybe that is why it costs more. -> 9:21 The BEACH DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER for 21$ that looks no better then a Fast Food burger. --> THEN THE HOTDOG apparently made out of Peruvian lamb for 14$ 10:23. That looks like a Nathans Hot Dog you can buy a pack of 5 at Wal-Mart for like 6$ with some Orange Slices. ( Why would I want orange slices with hot dog???) 0 out 5 stars because it is literally what Disney World wanted to be with food prices but even they could stoop to this level of RIP OFF MODE!
Certainly very expensive. Not a lot of value at this one. Welcome back Chuck. Thanks for watching!
Loaded fries looked good, agree on the bacon! Mojito cocktail looked damn nice too. Burger looked good
The vibes are great, and you can get decent food here. It's not the epitome of Vegas dining, but it gets the job done and you're at the beach! Thanks for watching!
The salad not worth 16 bucks. If they made their own dressings I could see the expenditure. Nice video as always.
I don't think any of the food I ordered here was conventionally, "worth it" lol. It was all very overpriced but I will say, the place was absolutely packed when I was there so people are not even thinking twice eating here. But I would like folks who watch this video at least be informed prior to going if they do. I would like to see more made from scratch items here for sure though. Thanks for watching!
That double cheeseburger looked awesome!!!! ❤
It was a solid burger to me. I liked it fine. Thanks for watching!
What a great idea for a series!
I'm glad you think so! I'm looking forward to it. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the poolside tour. The dessert looked to be the most appetizing. Not a pool fan so I doubt I will be trying the food there.
I actually really like the orange whip lol. But if you're not a pool person, then I definitely see no reason to come here. Thanks for watching!
We always stay at Delano/Mandalay Bay when in Vegas and I have seen but never been to that poolside restaurant. It seems decent enough, so I wouldn’t be afraid to order the Southwest chicken wrap.
On another note, we will be staying at the Fontainebleau tomorrow so I took your recommendation and made a reservation at Mother Wolf. Thank you Shin!
Oh! I'm going to a convention at the convention center today and parking at Fontainebleau. I'll be out there in about an hour. Maybe we'll catch each other. I hope you enjoy Mother Wolf! Thanks for watching Diane!
Ok, I've got a weeks worth of work for you. For Tue, head over to Cornish pasty, I recommend the pasties with red wine sauce. For dessert, toffee pudding, sweet, but very good. For the strip, head over to Smith & Wollensky for their "angry shrimp." There are of course more items on the their menu, but that's all I ever order, lol.
Went to Cornish Pasty co. Last year it was great . Local friends took us !! Downtown out of the way joint .loved it ...something different..
Thier potato leek soup was awesome! Try it if ya already haven't
I actually will be doing Cornish Pasty when I do an arts district series this coming Fall. Haven't been to Smith & Wollesnky's yet but they are on the list. Maybe I'll push them up into this year sometime. I'll keep the angry shrimp in mind. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for mentioning what is frozen/packaged.
You got it! Thanks for watching!
I love your videos 😻😻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Thank you very much!
My man, sumo Shin!
Thanks for watching!
Eah ! Definently run of the mill stuff. Even the burger looked weak . Of course we all know how pricey things are. The food however is edible, lol . Just a quick snack while you are at the pool area for the afternoon....charge it to the room.....❤ then bend over backwards when ya check out!!!! Lol 😮
LOL! Charging to the room always feels so good, until the very end. Thanks for watching!
Shinster! Always happy to see your face 😊
Happy to be here and bring a bit of brightness to your day as well! Thanks for watching!
Cool review! I've tried The Orleans and Venetian pool side food. Both were very good. There's something about eating a burger and fries poolside that just hits the spot 😋.
Yes! There's just something about hanging out by the water and having a treat that just feels right. Thanks for watching Steph!
The food doesn't look too bad. I'm just not a fan of food at a pool because most of the time it's just okay and I don't like eating while I'm at the pool. I would get the orange ice cream. Also it was great meeting you at Lvlup Expo today.
Great meeting you Jerry! Very nice cosplay dude! Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin thank you Shin
👍🤠
Thanks for watching Vickie!
nothing like an Ore Ida and Tyson beach lunch.....
Overpriced Ore Ida and Tyson.
I can think of a few more things like it lmao. Thanks for watching!
Am I the only one who thought the double cheeseburger patties looked burnt? Never miss a vid shin! Thank you! Prices too mucho for me!
If you look closer, you can see it's actually crusted black pepper. I thought it was pretty good. I would call out a burnt burger if it was actually burnt, like I did at Junior's Cheesecake at Resorts World. But agreed, very expensive for what you're getting here. Thanks for watching!
This is a nice area to look out at the pool but maybe I’d get a cocktail….😊❤
Yes! Great idea! Personally off camera, I'd get the orange whip and hang out by the pool. It's such a nice beach at Mandalay. Thanks for watching!
They have no need to aspire to doing better. They have a captive audience. It looks adequate and of course at prices that are inflated, apropos of Vegas.
You more or less hit it on the head. If you're in your swimming suit, behind a gate, what are you going to do if you're hungry? Thanks for watching!
Great job as usual!! Keep up the good work!! As for the food? I have seen better quality at our local gas station. That food all looked awful!! lol.
Not exactly the epitome of Las Vegas food here I agree. But I think as the series goes on, we'll see some more elevated fare. Or not lol. We'll find out together. Thanks for watching!
Special Request: I'd LOVE to see you review Mr. Mama's for breakfast. Digging the channel! Cheers from Toronto, Canada!
Mr. Mama's is on the list. I've been seeing a lot of people asking for it so maybe I'll push it up in the schedule. Thanks for watching! Hello Canada!
The loaded fries looked really good.
I would have preferred some crispier bacon but otherwise it was very tasty! Thanks for watching!
Reminds me of food that you get at those all inclusive resorts in Mexico. That orange soft serve looks delicious though.
Wow. I haven't been to one of those resorts in over a decade. I might look into that. The orange whip was really good lol. Thanks for watching!
Just call it all you can eat resort then.
👑♥️🤘
Looks like an okay place to grab a snack while you're at the pool but I don't think I'd go out of my way to get it since it did seem like a lot of frozen foods reheated. Thank you as always for your review!
I would definitely not go out of my way to eat here for sure. However, after time in the sun and water, it's a weird phenomenon but almost anything can taste amazing. Though Mandalay probably has one of the best pools in Vegas, I think the food options are lacking for sure. Moving forward in the series, I think the pools become more basic, but the food will get better (I think lol). We will find out together. Thanks for watching Ruth!
Thanks for the review. Overpriced pool food.
Yeah, the entry into the series was not the best food but things are already looking a lot better for the next restaurants in the series. Thanks for watching Karen!
I think the food there is just okay. They can step it up a notch but I guess with the amount of people they are serving this works for them. I don’t like all the pre packaged sauces and dressings. That’s okay for take out but if you are sitting in the restaurant they should do better. Overall the food is just ok. Nothing spectacular but will fill you up at the pool
Yeah, because most people are locked into the pool area in their swimming suits, they likely won't need to step it up much. Thanks for watching!
The chicken wrap looked delicious. Now I am in the mood to make one this week. Wondering if you need a bracelet or something to swim in their pool if you are not staying there. Not sure how the hotels work there. Thank you for the video.
They check hotel keys at the entrance. It's all gated off. Thanks for watching!

Sounds like pretty ordinary food for the price and the view. I wonder if some of the swankier hotels’ pool-side restaurants have better fare.
This will likely be the most basic menu we see in this year's poolside series. But I won't know for sure until we go to check them out. We'll see together! Thanks for watching!
WTG Shinster. TY
Thanks mafatone!
Oh GREAT idea to do pool bars...the loaded fries remind me of taco bell's loaded fries different cheese, though? That chicken burger looked amazing, but too bad it wasn't the best. I wonder if they'd let us walk in and just buy the orange whip sundae and leave? Thank you for a great video!
That's a good question. I don't know if they would let you enter to only buy the orange whip but I would do it if they let me lol. Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin Will do!
People, please stop paying these prices. They are playing you.
People are going to do with their money what they will do with their money. But at least they can be informed prior to going if they watch my video. Thanks for watching!
Not gonna lie though Shin, after alot of water activities, the food there would taste like something from a 5 star restaurant..😂😂
Yes! After time in the sun and water, almost anything can taste amazing. It's quite the phenomenon lol. Thanks for watching!
For those drink prices I will just mix a drink in my hotel room and sit in the tub. plus there wont be a few hundred people pissing in my water. lol
LOL! Yeah, public pool water is in theory gross but I think they have enough chemicals in there to nuke everything. Not that that's much better lol. Thanks for watching!
I think this is gonna be a great series. This food was very boring. I’d have a hard time picking something.
I'm looking forward to seeing what the poolside restaurants have to offer. I think this will be the most basic menu we will see in the series. Thanks for watching!
SYSCO prepackaged food. Boo. Hard pass on food and prices. ❤😂😊
Happy to save you the trip! Thanks for watching!
Snowy today so really enjoying the sunny vacation vibes 🌞 PS. We see that Din Tai Fung is coming to Disneyland have you tried the one on the Strip? Cheers!
Stay warm :) I have been to the Din Tai Fung at the Aria several times as well as many of the locations in Southern California. Probably one of my favorite restaurants. I don't know how I'm going to do an unbiased review when I go for a vlog because I'm terribly biased for this restaurant lol. Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin Thanks so much that’s exciting to hear you enjoy. Happy Dining! 🍕🍔🌮
The food looks mediocre but will I order them when I'm there? Yes I will.😂
LOL! Yes exactly. It's not incredible food, but sometimes, you just want to stay at the pool and do your thing. Thanks for watching!
That bacon on the nachos seriously looks like corned beef😬 a couple years ago I stayed there and had the breakfast sandwich at the pool everyday and it was awesome! I never tried anything else after that lol
I wish I made it earlier in the day for the breakfast items. I didn't realize they had a cut off. I've learned for future videos lol. Thanks for watching potato!
Shin, you should collaborate with "Food & Travel with "Danny The Medic" youtuber one of these days.
I wouldn't be super opposed to it but after my collab with Norma, it's just so much more work and I'm lazy by nature lol. I have 1 more collab I've already agreed to but I think I'll likely take a break from collabs for a bit afterwards. I'm already putting so much time into CZcams and this is still a hobby for me so I have to balance it against my other priorities and responsibilities in life. Thanks for watching!
Dip chicken strips in Frank's red hot then Marie's bleu cheese dressing
Genius level move here. Thanks for watching!
A lot of the food you tried definitely came from a supermarket freezer. Hard to justify the price. BTW Shin, after your reviews do you live on leftovers for the rest of the week?
Very expensive for sure. And yes, I eat leftovers roughly 4 days out of the week between 2 videos. Thanks for watching!
VWS: That looked bad and the prices were your standard rip-off levels. $21 for 5 Shrimps reminds me of the Fontainebleau nachos), $21 Cheeseburger 🍔 ridiculous, $6 sodas crazy. How long can Vegas overcharge their customers. But as P.T. Barnum said " a Sucker is born every minute" lol lol. See you Tuesday Peace ✌️
Vegas will charge as long as people will buy. And this place was packed. Thanks for watching Al! See you Tuesday!
@@VegaswithShin no doubt about thar. See you Tuesday
Hello Shin normally I will watch a videos as soon as it comes out, but unfortunately, my family lost our place living due to a fire. We are all safe pretty much have lost mostly everything.😢
Oh my god, I'm so sorry to hear that Christine. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. That is so unfortunate. I hope blessing find their way to you and you come back from this. How terrible. I'm so sorry.
So you did have to pay for Mandalay Bay pool area access?
I booked a room to gain access to the pool for this video yes. Though I recently found out that you can get pool only access at Mandalay Bay without a room through some kind of online site though I forget what it is. Thanks for watching!
Hey Shin wheres the spedo?
On my body!
Can you try ghengris grill?
I'll add them to the list! Thanks for watching!
Seems a bit pricey.
It is Vegas… everything is pricey.
@MH_6160 some of the best deals for food are in Vegas, so I don't quite believe that everything is pricey. If this meal was being served at the top of the Stratosphere, maybe I could understand the prices. But it's junk food, being served at a resort poolside.
I'm curious how poolside prices will be. Though on the strip you're free to walk around and look for different places, once you're poolside in a swimming suit, you're kind of locked in so I imagine they can make prices even higher. We'll see over the coming weeks as I check out more pool restaurants. Thanks for watching!
No ketchup on a hotdog
Really???
I'm offended by the menu prices. Even with current inflation everything on that menu is more than twice the price of what it should be. This is just another reason for me to not go to Las Vegas, but instead go to my local tribal casinos. The MGM, Caesar's, etc.. organizations on the strip are straight up gouging on food at all their properties. $22 for the standard "Fatburger" at the dirty castle's food court. There's no value per dollar spent. It's just not worth it.
I am sure they are capitalizing on the laziness of people at the pool who would not go back inside to get food… it is like the outrageous prices at Disneyland.
@@MH_6160 I understand your point, but Disneyland is gated and therefore a captive audience. Remember in my original post I pointed out the food court at the Excalibur is charging $22 for a fast food hamburger. It's like this through all the strip complexes. It's not about laziness at these other resorts. The industry on the strip is a functional oligopoly and they are coordinating (IMO) to gouge people up and down the strip. I see no value.
I can still buy a $7 cheeseburger at one of my local tribal casinos and it's directly comparable to Fatburger as far as quality.
Why would I make the seven hour drive to Vegas compared to the 20 minute drive to my local tribal casino?
The whole strip is a rip off and Im not talking hey were on vacation in Vegas rip off prices these prices go way beyond that. They are basically making money off the pandemic since people want to travel. Just a money grab right in the open.
Some people are taking your route and not coming back to Las Vegas, especially when a lot of local tribal casinos are actually quite nice nowadays. Thanks for watching!
Ha! The casinos make so much profit from gambling, now they are trying to mess people up with the food. Unacceptable. I used to be able to get prime rib for 6.95 with all the fixins at my local joint or 4.95 Downtown. This is ridiculous. There is no need for these prices. I lived there, I know. People are being played by the casino system in order to make tons more profits. That shrimp was soggy and flaccid. Not good.
Yes, Vegas is and has been in full profit mode now, much like every corporation. Not as much value to be had on the strip for the average tourist. But that's not new at this point. It's been this way now for almost half a decade. But I've been doing research on taking a little vacation with my girlfriend sometime this year and even with all the high prices, Vegas is still one of the cheaper vacations you can take as an American. Kind of tells you the state of things nationwide. Thanks for watching!
@@VegaswithShin I could take a 7 day cruise to the Caribbean for less money than a weekend in Vegas. Yes they love their cheap flights, but once you get there. I am ashamed to say that I was a local for many years.
Don’t eat the chicken strips. Cold and dry
They were hot. They weren't moist though lol. Thanks for watching!
$74 for a platter of chicken tenders? W T F
I think it's for like 5-6 people. Thanks for watching!
Gawd, this food looks terrible
Now you're informed! If you're heading to the Mandalay Beach, eat beforehand or after! Thanks for watching!
Chicken, chicken and more chicken.. what a boring menu.. yeah I saw there was some shrimp which I personally like but many can't do shrimpies.
A pretty straightforward menu here. It caters to a lot of families I would say with picky eater children. Thanks for watching!
First
Soooo 😂 got nothing to do...
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Well, I know I won't ever be eating at this place talk about mediocre.😕😕😕 I mean, all the food was probably acquired from Sodexo, Sysco, and U.S. food service, there was no rhyme or reason to it. 😒😒😒 Packets of mayo and ketchup dried out chicken and frozen fries and frozen tator tots really? 🙄🙄🙄 It looks like most of the food was frozen at one time or another. This place just sucks. The only saving grace was the orange whip so I'll stop by to try that someday. 😋😋😋 I know it's a rant Shin, but I feel bad you spent all this money on bad food I would have been complaining the entire time if I had been eating with you. 😆😆😆 even the decor of the area looked like it was a 1980's or 1990's time warp LOL!!! 😆😆😆
The village pub you visted weeks ago and that cafe by the raiders stadium you went to, the food was great😋😋😋 but this place no way my friend, anyway thanks for saving me some pain not having to eat here I owe you one seriously 😋😋😋
Happy to report Admiral. I think this is the place one eats at because they're locked into the pool space. Wouldn't recommend anyone go out of their way to eat here. Thanks for watching!
Terrible food.
Certainly not the best. Thanks for watching!
