| - NOTE: This review is specifically for their happy hour.
Stripsteak is located in the restaurant wing/section of Mandalay Bay, and offers happy hour daily from 400-600pm. Seating is first come first serve at the bar and lounge area in the front section of the restaurant. Although the food offerings/specials for happy hour are few in number, all doubts will be cast away as soon as you get a whiff and taste of the food.
The bar and lounge food menu consists of a mere 5 items, and my friend and I decided on 3:
1) Prime Rib Sliders, $10; au jus with brioche bun
2) Meatballs, $8; with heirloom tomato sauce and aged jack cheese
3) Duck Spring Roll, $9; hot and sour cherry sauce
We ordered 1 item that was not listed on the menu, and that was the the trio of duck fat fries with herb, truffle, and bbq dipping sauces..
As far as drinks, select beers are $3, well drinks $6, and an assortment of "featured cocktails" are $6 as well.
Aside from the duck fat fries, our other favorite dish of the evening were the meatballs, as we thought the combination of the sauce and aged jack cheese certainly made a flavorful combination. The prime rib sliders can be slightly on the messy side so make sure to have ample napkins available. The spring rolls were delicious, but not as wonderful as the duck fat fries. Truth be told, my friend and I ordered and devoured 2 orders of duck fat fries that night.....that dish is a winner!
SERVICE: Excellent and outstanding. The 2 female servers were very polite, patient, and always checked on us in a timely manner.
Bottom Line: One of the happiest hours I've been to =) I'll definitely be back on future trips to Vegas.
