| - Given the jacked up prices of most of the restaurants in Las Vegas, it is kind of nice to know there is a place with decently-priced, fresh meals available.
After frequenting the MGM Food Court more times than I would like, my sister suggested we go by the MGM Signature. Yes, because this is place is located at the Signature, the cafe is a bit of a walk from most things in the MGM. However, if you are looking for something healthy and fresh, Delights is the way to go.
One of the drawbacks was that their menu is not super extensive. They carry your typical sandwiches, skillets, pasta, and juices. Here are a few things that I tried:
Soup of the Day (Minestrone): Coming out piping hot and seasoned well, the minestrone for me was the perfect complement to my egg sandwich. The minestrone had a slightly sweet flavor from the stewing of the vegetables. I enjoyed the hearty sized pieces of the beans that makes a minestrone classic. Plus, I appreciated the fact that the noodles came out al dente telling me that they weren't serving soup with pasta that had been sitting there for hours.
Melrose Avenue: Not super flavorful but a good solid healthy choice. Compared to most of the other options, the Melrose has perhaps the least interesting combinations but still I enjoyed the warm scrambled egg whites paired with the creamy sliced avocado and the diced tomatoes and cooked mushrooms. In terms of flavor, it mainly came from the salty turkey bacon which also added a nice crisp for some crunch.
In terms of service, the staff was friendly but a little on the slow side. I guess they are cooking the items to order so it does require some more time than your typical fast food fare. Access to the Signature is limited from the MGM side so be careful about the hours.
Overall, I would recommend Delights especially if you are looking for a MUCH better alternative to the food court options at MGM.
