    Prickly Pear Chia Parfait
    Meredith I.

    Went here for brunch with 3 companions and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. We got the brunch which is unlimited small plates. They also have unlimited drink options but we chose single cocktails- they were delicious. We were seated outside by the pool; it was a bit loud and the service just a tiny bit slow, but we felt like everything was perfect. We tried many small plates- all creative and delicious! Chilequiles, French toast, smoked salmon toasts , Eggs Benedict with beef , chia pudding, tamales, guacamole. We had a few different margaritas which were all delicious. They brought me a shot of pineapple infused tequila as we were celebrating my birthday! Would go back here in a heartbeat!

    We came for the weekend brunch at Border Grill and did the unlimited small plates with bottomless mimosas.... definitely the way to go. The portions come out small, but that's kind of the point. It lets you try a bunch of different dishes without getting stuck with something you don't love. Honestly, everything we had was really good.... flavorful, fresh, and came out pretty quickly. The bottomless mimosas were solid and consistently refilled (no long waits, which matters). Service overall was friendly and attentive without being over the top, which made the whole experience feel easy and relaxed. If you're expecting big, heavy plates, this might not be your thing, but if you're into trying a variety of dishes and making it more of an experience, it's a great brunch spot on the Strip.

    We got seated really quickly and the service was great our waiter was very attentive and had a lot of great recommendations.The food was delicious and i was very impressed with the taquitos. I love when we get free chips and salsa it's always such a hit. We ordered a pitcher of margs and it was so worth it.

    Service was friendly and attentive, and the food was overall pretty good. My meal just wasn't my favorite. I ordered the green enchiladas, but the texture and flavor weren't quite what I was expecting, so I ended up leaving most of them. That said, everyone else at our table really enjoyed their meals and finished everything on their plates. While my dish wasn't a hit for me personally, the overall experience was still good thanks to the great service and everyone else being happy with their food.

    I like this place more than I thought I would. Service was quick and friendly. The food was extraordinarily well prepared absolutely no issue with quality for the money. They could've been slightly larger portions, but it was fine. The margaritas could've been a tad better as could be Trace Leche cake. The caramel flan was pretty good all at all. I would say these guys exceeded my expectations.

    Best AYCE brunch on the Strip. This is a buffet that is brought to you by- you order 3-4 small plates at a time and they are quickly delivered to your table. We loved that the meal wasn't broken up by jumping up and down for more food and also loved that we knew someone hadn't sneezed on the tongs as can happen in buffets. The food itself was great - a nice variety of savory and sweet. We especially loved the horchata french toast, the chicken and churro waffles (they have a kick!) and the campechana. They were also willing to remove meat from dishes as my spouse doesn't eat beef or pork. We didn't do the bottomless mimosas - but did have an espresso martini which was delicious.

    Decent spot to visit at Mandalay Bay during the daytime since many of the restaurants don't open til later in the evening. The restaurant is tucked away from the main casino floor closer to the food court and convention halls. The service was slower and food was almost delivered to the wrong table multiple times. The waffle fries had good seasoning but were too hard. The burger was good but the juices left the buns soggy. The fish tacos were excellent though.

    Highly recommended to make a reservation if you want to eat here. We arrived at 1ish in the afternoon, two adults with a baby in a stroller...took a little for the young lady to find a spot for us. She eventually found a table that could accommodate us on the patio. Mind you, today is very windy and they also have the heaters above on, so it's a strange feeling sitting out here. It's very loud, but we're in Vegas so that's to be expected. We sat here for a while waiting for our server. We never got any water or chips like the other tables. Very disappointing that it took about 15 minutes until our server came to our table and asked if she could get us a drink. I ordered a white peach lemonade mocktail and it was a great refresher. We also asked for water and it took a good 5 minutes to get those. Also got the Guac of the Month, which was basically their typical guac with bacon and garlic, very good. It's pleasing to the eye as well, topped with kale (she can eat that) HA! We ordered tacos, spicy shrimp, fish, and carne asada. The plate comes with three tacos, beans and rice; you may either get all 3 of the same, or mix and match as we did for a few bucks more. Welp, the plate arrived and I was not impressed. Let's see if it taste great....and disappointed. I do. It recommend the fish taco, maybe it was an off day, but it was too fishy, like sardines. We did not enjoy that. The carne asada was okay, the meat was soft but there was no seasoning that made the meat flavorful. All you could taste was salsa topping on it. As for the spicy shrimp taco, that was great. Flavorful and tasty; a bit oily, but it was the best tasting taco out of all three that we ordered. I tried it, I most likely won't return. Try it and see if you have a better experience. Also, the server only came back once at the end of our meal.

    Carne Asada Tacos

    Went to Border Grill today for a work lunch. It was a great spot! I truly loved the chips, guac and salsa at the table. I ordered the carne asada tacos. They were good! I like extra spice so I asked for salsa on the side. The service was great! I loved the music and the inside of the restaurant is very spacious.

    This plate of  pablano chicken enchiladas was $30+ June 2026 the portion size is ridiculously small

    EAT BEFORE YOU GET HERE! Not even kidding the portion sizes are so small seriously like over priced tapas the food is good not feeling. We sat inside the restaurant not on the patio or whatever the decor seems like an afterthought in a hurry to put something in this space. Our server was cool food didn't take long to get to the table but I don't imagine a lot goes into making expensive "tapas". Would I eat here absolutely not I'm not a large mammal either but plates $30+ a pop for whatever they want to call I'll pass.

    It's become a bit of a game day tradition for us to come to Border Grill for brunch before home Raiders games at nearby Allegiant Stadium. It's an easy walk and this is a terrific place to get full bellies and pregame! On weekends, Border Grill features a bottomless small plates brunch for around 50 bucks. It's an incredible deal with a good variety of dishes so you can sample lots of different things from the menu. Even better, you can add on all-you-can-drink Mimosas, Micheladas, or Bloody Marys for less than $40! To me, this is where the value lies. I do wish the brunch menu had more options, but note that you can also order off a limited lunch menu. Here's my pro tip #1: you can still get the bottomless cocktails deal if you order an entree! Score! I usually get the chicken quesadilla with black beans and rice and bottomless Mimosas. It's pricey but worth it (especially because the drinks keep flowing). The mimosas come with three different juices (usually orange, cranberry, and then a juice of the day). My favorite is when they have the blood orange or strawberry. The bubbles are in the form of a bottle of Italian prosecco that's a decent quality. It's not fancy, but it'll do. There is a two hour limit on the bottomless booze. Pro tip #2: ask for a to-go cup when you're ready to leave. You can pour in a mimosa and take it with you as you walk over to the stadium! The vibe is lively but relaxed, with indoor and outdoor seating. There are some patio tables overlook the pool area, which adds a fun, sunny touch if the weather is nice. The restaurant is casual, colorful, and energetic without being chaotic. The indoor dining area lacks character, but I do enjoy the small bar here. It's a pretty big space that occupies two stories. My favorite place to sit is on the covered outdoor deck area during the cooler fall months. I've also dined here for dinner, but the brunch is where the bargain is. Locals, they've recently discontinued the locals discount but they do have a new frequent diner program so make sure you ask to sign up. The points and freebies rack up quickly. You can also utilize and earn points across a variety of restaurants that are also run by Chefs Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger. Border Grill has good, chef-driven food, offers bottomless drinks, and provides a fun, festive atmosphere. If you're in Vegas on a Raiders game day, the brunch is a no-brainer for pregame eats.

    Brisket Taquitos

    We came back here for lunch after last experience. It did not disappoint! Always delicious. The guacamole, enchiladas, and tacos were all so good. Our server was very busy but the additional support staff helped keep us well hydrated and accommodated. The restaurant is always clean and simply decorated. We will be back.

    Seafood Enchiladas - no good
    Peter M.

    I finally made it to the Border Grill at the Mandalay Bay. There were no appropriate signs to find this place, until the end. There's all this hype about the famous LA chefs who now have outposts over here. I came here for something different and started with the trio of salsas. That was good. The seafood enchilada seemed from a frozen bag then baked. More like taquitos. Tough and dry on the outside. Only nice optics. Yes, looks can be deceptive. The inside components were supposed to have crab, lobster and shrimp. Zero texture. Seafood flavor only. More of a mash. Did not see any of the components, except a small cut up piece of shrimp or two. It was also excessively salty, giving me further affirmation that what came to my table, was probably from a package. I asked Justin the server, whether it was freshly prepared ...he said it was prepared in the morning and then kept. All the facts did not add up. No fresh taste. The side of rice and black beans (does not come with it. You have to order it separately, for a cost) were okay. Anyone can make them. The way I see it, an experience at any restaurant needs to be holistic. The unfriendly hostess Michelle, sent me on two runarounds. One to a restroom really far away, when there was one close by from the inside of the restaurant. And then sent me in the opposite direction for a non existent Uber pick up location. The busboy Jose, was very rude and laughed at me, when I tried to change tables to avoid the sunlight glare (I take a photosensitive medication). Stephanie, the manager, on the other hand, was understanding and empathetic. Chefs Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger are highly regarded, established and lauded Chefs, that have a well deserved reputation. How come this did not translate to Las Vegas. The whole experience was nothing much to talk about.

From the moment you walk in, the space feels vibrant and modern--perfect for a night out where you want to share, try a little bit of everything, and enjoy the scene. The menu is built for exploration, and honestly, that's the best way to do it. We kicked things off with the Big Eye Tuna Tartare, which was incredibly fresh and layered with flavor--light, clean, and a perfect start. The Hamachi Pizza was a standout: thin, crispy base topped with delicate slices of yellowtail and bright citrus notes that made every bite pop. The Yellowtail Tataki continued that same theme of freshness, lightly seared and beautifully balanced, while the Torched Salmon Crispy Rice brought the heat--literally. That contrast of warm, seared salmon over perfectly crisp rice is always a win, and Sugarcane executes it flawlessly. We also tried the Strip Sushi Roll, which tied everything together with a more indulgent, savory bite that still felt refined and not overly heavy. What really makes Sugarcane shine is how well it blends elevated Japanese-inspired dishes with a social, shareable dining experience. It's the kind of place where every plate hits, the energy stays up, and you leave already planning your next visit. Pro tip: Come with a group, order across the menu, and don't skip the crispy rice. A must-visit for anyone who loves fresh sushi, creative small plates, and a lively Vegas atmosphere.

    Restaurant is on the 3rd floor with the other places like beauty and Essex and STK. open to the…read morecasino common area. Hugh central kitchen where you can see the fire as they cook and make paella. We had a 7 pm reservation and showed up a little after 5. Luckily it was Sunday night and they weren't busy. We were seated and the adventure began. We had not been here before so ordered across the various areas of the menu. Since it's a tapas place, each dish is small and can put away quite a few. We ordered: Jose's taco. The best thing I've put in my mouth in a long time. Wish we didn't have it first, was mind blowing mix of flavors. It's seaweed with a slice of Iberico ham and caviar. 25 each but well worth it One of each cone - sonatas, caviar, Scalia and atun. All were delicious but the caviar and tuna tartare were my faves Pan tomate wife loves this, traditional presentation and good. Patatas brava chunks of potato in a tomato sauce very good Vieras scallop dish, very tasty Gazpacho was cold and refreshing Cod bunuelos. Cod fish calendar fried, got about 5 and they were really delicious Marisol croquet seafood cake, deep fried and served with a tasty aioli. Arroz gambas. I had the large paella, takes about 45 mins so if you know you want one, order early. You can get the paella of the day in a smaller version, but I had my heart set on this one and polished off about 86% of it. Tarta de queso. We had the basque cheesecake for dessert. Was really good, I think I like this version better than the NY style. Much lighter. Was a fantastic experience, food was great, service amazing. Can't wait to come back!! They are known for their gin and tonics so the wife got the ultimate and I got the citric. Citric had Mediterranean tonic water with grapefruit juice. Was really good! Service was super, Kayla was very attentive and friendly with lots of suggestions and helpful explanations of things weren't sure about.

    Ambiance: it's a nice restaurant but nothing outstanding about the interior design. it was lively…read morewithout being loud Service: service was great! server was knowledgable. also it was my friends bday and the detail they put in for her was super nice! Food: We got 8 different items to try between the 4 of us & honestly, nothing was outstanding. it was mediocre or fine - not bad food or anything. but compared to the price of everything, id go somewhere else.

I honestly thought it wouldn't be enough but they were consistent about bringing out item after item. The place itself is beautiful on the inside and the drinks were good. If I wasn't driving I would've gotten the bottomless brunch option. The only issue for me (which wasn't really an issue) is that we had a reservation but we still had to wait about an hour to get sat down. Also, since it's in a hotel, the only bathroom was outside of the restaurant so we kept having to get out and walk out to use the restroom. Not a huge deal but just worth mentioning.

    We really had high expectations for this restaurant and were really excited, but we were sadly…read moredisappointed. Food was ok, service was ok. It wasn't that crowded but the service was really slow, we had to bring our check to the bar to pay because we couldn't get the servers attention. We saw a lot of staff just standing around. Also it took a while for most of the hot food to be passed to our table. Most of the items we wanted, we had to ask for. Only the parfaits, sausage and bacon, and waffles came by frequently. The chilaquiles, eggs Benedict (which was meh) and all the other items that looked good, were had to ask for. I def would not come back.

Only one hostess seems to enjoy working here, the rest are rude. I'll give you an example of what being a great hostess of a restaurant is supposed to do. We walked in at 12:15, no seats at the bar, no server for high-tops & patio was closed. At that point, a great hostess wouldn't turn customers away being that there was availability at 12:45 to dine at a table. Neither hostess offered to check & turned us away. We got online & went back over to see if that 12:45 table would be available.. yes it was & we were seated within ten minutes. If we hadn't checked online someone else would've gotten our business. The indoor patio was right at the window so we could watch the fountains. Spectacular ambiance! Aside from the crying kids, not their fault. Let's get into the food. This is the third chance that I've given this restaurant because I am sad to see it go so down hill. No more Bolognese either along w/ many other menu items. Grilled Shrimp Caesar Salad 5/5. Excellent amount of dressing & the shrimp were more like prawns & just enough for the whole salad. Shrimp Cocktail 1/5 this time as I got food poisoning again & I doubt it was from the Margherita Pizza 4/5. The Garlic Aioli went perfect w/ the pizza crust BTW. No sliced tomato on top just super thin layer of cheese & sauce. Portnoy would give it a 0 probably. Chicken Parmesan 1/5 everytime it comes out different. No consistency & we had food poisoning the first & last time we ordered it. However, next time we saw it, it looked different. (Within two months) Agnolotti 1/5 way too rich & salty! Never had a pasta I didnt like like I have had here & at Carbone Riveria just unreal to me. Oysters 5/5 Wine, champagne excellent still. I have not tried the Lasagna, but it looked beautiful! Honestly, I don't plan on dining here again & am sorry to not be able to recommend it after trying multiple times to actually find some goodness here & give them the benefit of the doubt.

    when i visited 3 years ago, this was the worst vegas buffet i'd been to. this time around, a friend…read morehad recommended it and my bf wanted to give it a try... it did not disappoint this time. there was a much wider selection of food and it was tastier. there was the butchery, sushi station, seafood boil area, and many many dishes. the ice cream there was my favorite. i got the thai tea and my bf got the strawberry cheesecake, and both were so so good. i would come here again just for the ice cream LOL only downside was the wait. we had made a reservation in advance, but still ended up waiting about 40 mins (despite showing up on time). when we got seated, the party at the end of the walk-in line when we arrived was at the very front already so... prepare to wait regardless

    This buffet fell short in several areas. From the moment we arrived, the line moved painfully slow…read more Once we finally reached the front, we were left wondering why there were so many empty tables given how slowly guests were being seated. Inside, the buffet itself was underwhelming. The overall design and ambiance felt dated and uninviting. The floors were messy, and the food stations did not appear to be actively maintained throughout service. If you plan to visit, make sure to arrive early. Toward the end of service, many food trays were no longer being replenished, yet guests were still charged full price. To make matters worse, the soda we were served was completely flat. The only highlights of our visit were the prompt table service from the bussing staff and the excellent white chocolate bread pudding. Overall, I would not recommend this buffet. Save your money and visit the Wynn Buffet instead.. just be sure it's open.

    We've been wanting to come out to Echo - Taste & Sound for a hot minute, and FINALLY got to come…read moreout last weekend for a friend's birthday brunch! Echo has events that rotate out, and this Sunday, a friend of ours happened to be performing his Retro Brunch set with live DJ and drumming. Morgan and I got there early and had a drink while we waited for our reservation time. The bartender was an absolute gem. She was super friendly, and makes a mean cocktail!! Drinks were stellar. Standard price for downtown (a little spendy, but in this instance, worth it.) For drinks we ordered: Autumn Serenade: vodka, St. George spiced pear, absinthe, peach nectar, ginger beer Lover Boy: rye whiskey, angostura bitters, orange bitters Neon Tiger: hendrick's gin, yellow chartreuse, campari and an Espresso Martini. My favorites were the Espresso Martini (best in town!) and the Autumn Serenade. So amazing! For food, I had the shrimp and grits, which was ENORMOUS and absolutely delicious. Do I wish that the shrimp were a little bigger? Sure. But that's if I'm being super picky. I am picky about my grits, and these were amazing. I definitely ate more than I should have because they were so flavorful. Morgan ordered the pan fried pork chops and eggs. These were really yummy! Not a huge pork chop fan, and they were done beautifully. The potatoes were phenomenal, and the eggs were cooked to perfection. We also ordered the deviled eggs, and they were so good. Morgan doesn't really eat mayo, and he loved these. A must order. Our friend's mom also offered us a taste of the beignets, and they were light, pillowy, and so good. Both sauces were crave worthy. I will definitely get those myself next time. Service was great, and the music was awesome. I love the atmosphere here, and honestly cannot wait to come back for some different events. I think they have an R&B/Hip Hop night that we would like to come back for. Huge thanks to Chef and the staff of Echo Taste and Sound. We will absolutely be back, and soon!!
