| - My visits to Vegas have been more of a diversion and since I'm not a newbie, most of my trips come planned in advance with reservations at eateries I love or have yet to try.
That being said, given that our stay was not going to incorporate ethnic eateries (I can get Mexican and Asian food back home) we made reservations at a bunch of Americana spots or in this case, at an Irish spot located in the shops connected to Mandalay Bay.
While our journey here was albeit longer than the typical search for a breakfast joint, access is bia the mall, even if the mall is not open yet so bear that in mind. Once inside, you are swept away to an envisioned Irish Pub. If this is what a classic pub looks like, then I'm all game.
Their breakfast menu here is quite extensive and for those looking for direction, I would stick with something classic. I ordered the Irish Breakfast, which came with the following items: The proper fry up of 2 eggs any style, Irish bangers & rashers, grilled black & white pudding, grilled tomato, sautéed mushrooms & toast. Reason being, I wanted to try the grilled black and white pudding. Please note that the platters here are huge, so there is no way you would be able to finish the entire portions. The butter was the best part.........rich and creamy, like Darigold.
We gobbled up everything prior to heading back out to the strip.
5 stars for ambience, service, food, and just a great reason to get out of the Vegas heat.
