I have been coming to this lounge for at least 8 years and I never knew what it's name was. So on this trip I asked and finally I have the opportunity to write a review.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this lounge. It is at the entrance of the restaurant area of the Mandalay so it's super easy to get to and use prior or after a dinner reservation. There is no cover charge although there is a 2 drink minimum. They always have live bands and they differ, but I have never been disappointed.
There is plenty of seating and the cocktail servers are always friendly and fun. There is a dance floor and they encourage the use of it. If you go here often you will meet the regulars and they are a lot of fun to hang out with. One gent comes here every Saturday, Sunday, Monday - grabs a front seat and dances through most of the sets. He collects guitar picks and can tell who each one is from. I haven't asked him his age, but I'm giving him a high 70's early 80's and he's ADORABLE. I always get up and dance with him.
If you a cigar smoker, bring it on. There is a great little Davidoff cigar shop a short walk away and you can smoke it here, add a Cognac and you're set.
Ladies this is a great place to have some drinks, listen to music and dance the night away without having to stand around. You can sit and relax in between dances and remember what going out used to be like.
TIP: If you are only going to the lounge go park at The Hotel valet, this is the closest to the lounge.
