| - The Foundation Room is a "VIP" Club at the top of Mandalay Bay. As you might imagine, it is pricy, but the food is not up to par with the cost.
Our party shared two appetizers - a flatbread pizza w/ shrimp and Kobe Beef Carpaccio. The pizza was decent, but tasted strangely of peanuts, and the Carpaccio was good, but I expect a bit more flavor from this type of ingredient.
My entree was the Horseradish-Encrusted Beef Tenderloin. I was not impressed, especially considering the steakhouse prices. The steak was cooked past medium and it was not juicy. The taste was good, but the horseradish crust was a little hard to eat, as it flaked off instead of being truly a part of the steak.
The Parsnip Purée was good, tasting mild like mashed potatoes, but it did have a baby food texture to it. There was only a small amount in the container. Three asparagus was an oddly small side dish as well.
As for the venue, the service was very good and the entire place smelled of Heavy incense.
I just want more flavor and satisfaction from a meal at that price.
