| - So Avenue 24 is the MGM Grand's "Casual Cafe". It was Thanksgiving Day, and I had planned on going to a buffet; however, apparently so did the entire tourist population of Las Vegas. We tried the Wynn, Wicked Spoon, Rio, Studio M. All had waits of greater than 2.5 hours. We even waited in line at the Rio for about 30 minutes, before we decided to give up our spot.
We were going to search off the strip; however, most things were closed. We ended up back at our hotel, the MGM Grand. We noticed that Avenue 24 wasn't that busy. We also noticed that you could order off the regular menu or do the Thanksgiving Pre-Fixe for just $26.00 per person. We did the Thanksgiving meal, which we weren't expecting to be that good; however, it was EXCELLENT!!!
We started with a delicious bowl of Butternut Squash soup with some cinnamon sauce on top. Then the main entree was a generous portion of good turkey with all the trimmings including stuffing, sweet potato casserole, green beans and cranberry sauce. For dessert, we got some mini pumpkin pies.
It was a great meal, and would definitely return based on this experience. We also had a friendly server, who helped make the meal good.
