Another great addition to Las Vegas in the refined bar food scene. Michael Mina is probably known more for his fine dining but that is why I tried it out. The Menu is easy to navigate and fun but uses high end ingredients which is really nice to see in a pub setting. Four of us had a ton to eat and drink and enjoyed it all for the place only being open a couple of days.
Food:
- Fried Pickles was a great starter and had some mustard inside that was amazing
- Green Chile Stew was awesome
- Double Dog Dare wrapped in bacon and topped with Guac and chicharrones was pretty dope and all 4 of us had two good bites each and enjoyed it (Great dish to share)
- Ahi Poke was a super high grade Tuna but under seasoned
- Maitake Mushroom Tempura was really good but also under seasoned
- Fish and Chips was clearly high quality fish and that makes all the difference
- We mentioned to the Chef about the seasoning and he was appreciative and thanked us for bringing it to his attention. I have no doubt this place will keep getting better each week they are open (Seems like that kind of crew)
Drinks:
- There was a wide selection of beers and we drank them
- They has home made Red Hot shots and we absolutely loved those
- They also seemed to have a bunch of bourbons and rums that they age themselves in casks and were ridiculously smooth and we drank a bunch of this.
Any service issues were easy to understand as they have only been open a few days and the place is already slammed non stop. Such a good time,
All in all great place if you are staying in the MGM and by far the best place to go to watch a game or before and after shows at the MGM since it is in that food corridor. I look forward to going back
