    Its a small club/bar. Only one main bar. Service is very slow. Dance floor very small as well. They played a mix of 90's and currently music. The view from the patio is nice but also very small. Drinks are about $20 per drink.

    Gorgeous view ! We were so amazed by this stunning view of the strip ! This rooftop bar is perfectly located to have an awesome view of the whole strip and this just breathtaking ! There is an outside terrace when you can see the view but it’s a bit narrow so not a lot of people can fit there. The inside of bar is really nice as well and the atmosphere feels almost like prohibition type bar. We were so happy to find this gem and we’ll certainly come back !

    While it has one of the best views of the Strip, the staff was real unfriendly and their clientele was even worse. I overheard some elitist members talking down about the ppl that come there. If you aren't a member or don't get a VIP table/bottle service, don't expect to be able to sit down anywhere.

    This is a fairly exclusive bar and lounge to check out at the top of Mandalay Bay. I was fortunate to visit when it wasn’t a very busy night. The atmosphere is incredible. This is a good reflection of what a good night life bar is in Las Vegas. The views from the rooftop across the strip are stunning. If anything, it is worth the visit. They do offer dining and bottle service. It’s worth your time to at least get to the top of the building to see the view.

    We went on Thursday evening. We had great service and the food was good! The scallops were cooked perfectly! The view and balcony make this place 5 stars. Gorgeous place to grab a cocktail with a view. Night club wasn't really going yet so can't speak on that piece but restaurant was a good experience!

    Such a wonderful night we had here! I will never forget it. Thank you to our server who treated us amazing! You want a romantic night out with amazing views, try the Foundation Room at Mandalay Bay! When placing reservations online, ensure to request the view if you want that. I highly recommend it.

    Probably the best view on the strip. The cocktails were nothing special; they weren't bad, but don't go here if you are looking for craft cocktails. They do offer bottle service if that is something you are looking for. The Foundation Room is on the top Floor of Mandalay Bay with a view looking down the Las Vegas Strip. One of the kiosks in Mandalay Bay was offering free drink coupons for the ladies. The views were so spectacular, we've added this to our rotation of late night bars.

    Intimate & up-scale. Impeccable & eclectic decor. You can unplug & lose yourself here… The “Must experience” in Vegas…

    Booking a table with Vegas Girls Night Out for ~$140 a person was awesome! Highly recommend. It was a great way to end the first night of a bachelorette party. DJ was a bit all over the place but the crowd was great. Fun energy, amazing views, awesome experience. Felt very classy

    Best view and excellent fun! Just ask anyone who has attended this location, and they will tell you basically the same thing. Because it is a rather common theme around here. This place is just fun! Like FUN! This has to do with several factors, such as the private dining room and the lovely bar that is inside as well. They are serving up specialty cocktails like you wouldn't believe. In fact, I actually gave them an idea for a cocktail called The Worksheet. It has so many fascinating aspects to it, and therefore they were impressed with the style and attitude of this drink. Look for it at your local neighborhood bar. There's a decent chance they are serving it as their special at least one night per week, as well as during happy hour. The view from this place is truly something that you can behold when you are there on site. I confess that the pictures are really nice, but not as good as the real thing of just being there and beholding it in real time. The door man is named Daniel when he is working. He's very nice. You'll love his beard.

    First time at the Foundation Room at Mandalay Bay. The view is spectacular, the bar is well stocked and the music was good. The only open space for customers not on the reservation list was packed. The only knock would be the lack of space available for us regular patrons who didn't one side of the club. Would I come back? Yes, but only if management keeps an eye on crowd size and available space to enjoy the club.

    Tonight we enjoyed dinner in the dining room. Everything we ordered from the charcuterie to the filet was perfect prepared and presented with care. Between courses, we took our wine out to the patio to enjoy the view and more intimate environment than the lounge. It was a nice departure from the lounge environment. We will definitely be back and will ask for David. His experience with wine and attention to detail was evident.

    It's a good spot to check out once at least for the views. Drinks are $20+ but they weren't great. I tried 3 different drinks and they were meh. Food was ok but nothing great. They closed off the patio around 9pm and that's the spot with the best views.

    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.

    This place is not only beautiful but the staff is amazing as well. From the woman at the front, to security, and the staff leading all the way up to the rooftop. They even gave me a drink ticket for a drink or a glass of champagne. The rooftop was BEAUTIFUL!! Hands down one of the best views in the city. Benny Pitts is an awesome host! He was hospitable, informative, and funny! I will definitely be stopping by the next time I’m in Vegas… and looking for Benny to recreate that ambiance!

    They are using depictions of Hindu gods for decoration in a night club!!! this is disrespectful. In Hinduism, as in many other religions, deities and religious figures hold deep spiritual significance and are revered by followers. Using these figures inappropriately in contexts like clubs, where the focus is often on entertainment, can be seen as a lack of respect for the religion and its adherents.

  • 5/5 Millie M. 1 year ago on Google
    An amazing experience! Everyone on the staff were very helpful, courteous and polite. They took our photos and showed is the balcony. The service was great. The food was ok. Oysters could be fresher , but the wagyu and lamb steaks were a melt in your mouth experience. Great atmosphere.

    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.

    Food - 5 stars - everything was delicious. Perfectly cooked steak (medium rare was just right - not overcooked like a lot of steakhouses) Atmosphere - 5 stars - Wow! View was amazing! Decor was great as well. Service - 5 stars - amazing server - very helpful and friendly Prices - 4 stars - its Vegas...

  • 2/5 L T. 4 months ago on Google
    I was so excited to come here last weekend for the first time, but it wasn't a great experience. The staff (except for the bartenders) were unfriendly and treated us like we were criminals or about to do something wrong, everywhere we went. We did not feel welcome there, but fortunately the majority of Vegas clubs do a great job making their customers feel welcome. Will not be returning to this place.

  • 5/5 Danielle L. 5 months ago on Google
    If you want a place to celebrate, go to the Foundation room. Get the bottle service, it increases the experience even more. I felt like I was a celebrity with how much the whole staff worked together to make you feel like the night was all about you and your group. The music will keep you moving all night. Make sure to step out on the patio and catch a view of the city.

  • 4/5 T 10 months ago on Google
    Came on a Saturday night to check out this spot. Line was quick to get in but the place was hard to find. Guys were $10 if you were in the guest list, $20 without guest list, ladies were free. I joined the free guest list thru an app Discotech and got 2 free drinks for ladies before midnight. The DJ was ok, repeated some songs but there was some good hip hop to dance to. The dance floor is extremely small and more of a walk thru as you’re headed to the balcony. This is a table heavy location like most Vegas clubs but the people at the tables looked like they were having less fun than the other patrons. They did have cool bottle girls come out with sparklers and all that jazz. Bar service moved quick. Drinks $20+. Outside is small and most people were on top of each other trying to get a view of the outdoors but that dies down after they first opened and you can easily be inside or out as it gets later in the evening. It’s a cool spot but def not at the top of my list as a local. It’s good for the views but if you turned on the lights you’d see the decor is tacky and it looks outdated inside the club.

    Easy to get to, near the check in area of the hotel. We needed to adjust our reservation and the host was very accommodating. Enjoyed a wait on the outdoor patio with great views of the weird sphere. Portion sizes are generous which led us to accidentally ordering too much food. Would go back again.

    I wanted to love this place but it did fall short. Views were amazing and I love that you get to go outside while you wait for your food. Food and waiter service is where this place fell short. I did the steak with mash potato’s and asparagus. Steak was amazing, perfectly seasoned and cooked correctly. Mash was way under seasoned, I don’t even know if they added any salt. Asparagus was under cooked and chewy at ends. Waiter comes and asks how it is and I tell him I need salt to fix the potato’s because they are under seasoned, after that it was down hill. I got my salt and then I never saw the waiter again. When you are paying $16 a side I expect it to be edible. We had to ask someone else for the bill 🤷🏻‍♀️ All in all won’t be going back.

  • 2/5 Cathy W. 9 months ago on Google
    Warning, this is NOT a rooftop bar. Obstructive views, none at table. Half our group left 5 min in. 1 in our group had to buy new pair of shoes just to get in! $500 just for bottle service. Not worth it!!!

    It pays to be a Member at this lovely club. Monthly dinners. A new menu is coming. Awesome views of the Sphere & Strip & Airport. Nice after hours too💖💖💖

  • 3/5 Shelby T. 6 months ago on Google
    It was just okay. I really wish we had chosen not to eat here and just got drinks instead. One of our dishes was not correctly prepared, neither plate was particularly flavorful, and the bread was not fresh. Overall there was nothing special about the menu items, I just would have expected a more creative and competitive restaurant, especially at this resort and for this price point. I meant to take a photo of the menu because the prices are not posted online (which I have found to be incredibly pretentious. Especially because again, it. is. nothing. special.) but for 2 plates (steak and sea bass) and 2 cocktails plus a tip, it was around $220 The views are nice, which is why we decided to eat here, but I truly cannot recommend this to anyone wanting a dinner reservation here.

    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.

  • 4/5 Eduardo G. 7 months ago on Google
    Venue and food were awesome. Ho,wever, service was not. It took a long time to get food served. Once we did, one of our group members did not and it took even longer for her to finally get it. They did make up for it right away by not charging for her meal, which we did not ask for it was their decision, and server brought us complimentary dessert which was great on his part but this should not happen for the price we paid. I would still give them another chance and go back someday again. The views and food are worth it.

  • 3/5 Erica Y. 6 months ago on Google
    Foundation Room Ultra Lounge was very small, but had a nice roof top view of the strip. The music selection was 'ok'. The dancers uniforms were really cute with sun burst headbands. The drinks weren't fantastic. I think some of the soda/juice taps needed to be changed out and the bartenders didn't notice. It was nice to see the view, but I have no strong desire to go back.

  • 3/5 Sheena P. 5 months ago on Google
    The view from this place is worth the pricey drinks. A must do at least once but it’s mostly for the view. All the seats are roped off unless you pay extra for them. DJ was okay and the decor is pretty cool-reminiscent of a vampires lair inside. Wouldn’t go for the drinks or the party but very much recommend for a one time experience and to see the view which is stunning. Also an awesome view of all the planes taking off and landing at the airport.

  • 4/5 Miss T. 8 months ago on Google
    Sadly the patio area was closed when we were there, which was a complete disappointment, and no one told us downstairs before we paid the cover to go up. But, the bartenders were great and the DJ played good tunes. Drinks were pricey but that was expected.

  • 4/5 The Property A. 11 months ago on Google
    Extremely cool and unique atmospheric spot at the top of Mandalay Bay. Zen interior with heavily carved paneling on the walls and ceilings. Many unique rooms with valuable 19th c furnishings overlayed at night with burlesque dancers and club music Dj. Terrific place for special parties or corporate dinners. If you choose to dine in the restaurant, the bone in ribeye steak is excellent. The service was a two but the food was a five.
