    I ordered the burger extra toasted extra extra toasted fries crispy they gave me exactly what I wanted Sal was my server. Excellent customer service very friendly ambience was comfortable relaxing. I will be back. This was my first time here you would think that I ordered the steak. It's taste so delicious. I highly recommend it's located within the Tuscan.

    Turkey Dinner
    Norma N.

    What a great surprise! The steak house was closed so we decided to go to Marilyn's Cafe. I ordered the turkey dinner it was the Monday Special. What a plate! The squash and zucchini were cooked to perfection. I love when the vegetables are fresh with a crunch not squishy. You also received mashed potatoes and gravy along with some cranberry sauce. Our waiter was the best he greeted us, checked on us, filled our drinks without anybody asking. The gentleman was on his game. The restaurants nice to decor reminds me of being in Tuscany. If you're in town stop by I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

    Friday night prime rib
    Mel R.

    It's Friday night we came in for the prime rib. This is the first time I have been at this café at the Tuscany casino. I had heard that the prime rib was great and I completely agree. It was delicious! Terrific service beautiful renovated Restaurant. I can't wait to come back and try it again! Definitely thumbs up!!

    The Friday night Prime Rib Special*
    Jonathan S.

    Marilyn's Café is located at the Tuscany resort suites on E. Flamingo Rd. and is a flashback to the Coffey houses that used to be in every great casino in Las Vegas. The Friday night prime rib special was just as good as you'd get at any steak place on the strip for half the price. The prime rib came with a baked potato vegetables and was cooked to perfection. The bananas foster french toast was a little lacking in presentation but was very tasty. The service was spot on and it was great because we only had 45 minutes before a show which is the incredible red package back show. Also at Tuscany suites. So the whole experience is really a flashback to the Las vegas of the 1960s that everybody wish came back. Highly recommend Marilyn's café..

    Went to marilyn's on a Saturday night, using food comps to pay for our meal as usual. Gabriel was our sever and took great care of us. Bringing their great hot fresh rolls before dinner and always keeping an eye on the table. I went for the fried shrimp. I love fried food and it hit the spot. I loved the tasty horseradish shrimp cocktail sauce and Gabriel happily brought me more. Baked potatoes could have cooked longer but it was good enough for the few bites I took. Mac and cheese was pretty decent and I would probably have it again. Marilyn's is one of the few places still around where you can choose from a list of sides for your meal. Most come with a choice of 2 sides. Both of the guys went for a szechuan shrimp dish that was just meh. It came with 10 decent size grilled shrimp with the tails on, something they are not crazy about in a dish. It was not really spicy. The rice was OK and the big helping of fresh veggies which we get quit often could have really cooked a little longer before serving. Overall next time we choose something different. See you next week Marilyn's.

    Out of all the strip places we've been too, this was an exceptional strip quality restaurant with off strip prices b 'cause guess what? It's off strip. Our server, I think his name is Marcelo, recommended fajitas and dang, the food was ridiculously good. Chips and dip were also off the hook. The ambiance was chill and not packed like these strip restaurants usually are.....no fighting over seats and not noisy. Thank you Marilyn and see you on our Vegas trip next year.

    Biscuit and Gravy
    David S.

    I had to try the biscuit and gravy. I can't really fault it. The biscuit was fresh and the gravy was just ok. There wasn't a lot of flavor but there wasn't any hints of flavors that didn't belong. I also had eggs Benedict which where good but nothing to get excited about.

    We've seen a few youtubers eat here, so we thought we'd give it a try. It was average. The taste of the sausage was off my wife and I agreed. The my wife said her French toast really had no flavor. Nothing really stood out. Service was fine. No flavored creamers for coffee.

    Pacita D.

    Four of us decided to go for an early dinner before a show and chose to eat here. First of all, as cordial as our server was, he never cracked a smile. That seemed like a premonition of what to expect. Here's what we ate: * Liver and onions. Although I specified that I didn't want it over-cooked, it was. The server offered to replace it, and he did. But this time, although it was cooked properly, the liver had so much gristle that I ended up chewing for the flavor and spitting it out bite after bite. I also asked if the green beans was sauteed and not boiled. I was told the beans are sauteed. Not! It was boiled to oblivion and tasted like something out of a can. The saving grace was the heap of caramelized onions. * Chicken pot pie tasted like a Swanson chicken pot pie. Was it? * Hamburger with sweet potato fries. The hamburger was so-so, a tad better than a big Mac. The fries were soft and limp. * Chicken fajita came with generous servings of side dishes. This was probably the best meal out of the four, but still not outstanding by any means. * Mimosa was good enough. But it was mostly orange juice. They hardly had a good choice of wines --- mostly Sutter. Fortunately, the cost of our meals was reasonable. For people in a hurry and just want a fillling station and not a good meal, this may be adequate.

    Loco moco
    Nancy S.

    Rachel made this a great experience. We loved their menu and the room is lovely - a perfect choice for a Friday morning. The pancakes are especially good but I was looking for something different so I chose the Loco Moco. It was not quite up to true Hawaiian standard but it was good and filling. Definitely a nice setting and easy access.

    Chicken and Grilled Chicken & Eggs*
    Cashton J.

    I literally love everything about this place. It's located inside the Tuscany hotel and casino in Vegas. It's literally cheap eats and it's very good! I go here at least 2-3 when I'm in Vegas to grab breakfast or lunch. I'm not sure of how I found this place but I'm glad I did! One of my fav aunts name is Marilyn and she passed 6 years ago so this is a great reminder of her The service is good and the hotel/casino is usually quiet when I got from breakfast. I've never been for the dinner time..

    Chicken and eggs. Simple filling
    Martin W.

    This is one of the restaurants inside the Tuscany casino. First of all surprisingly they did not made this thing very appealing- I would say it looks like an old 80th cantina for workers or even some old school food place. Not inviting at all. But once you are seated the waiters and staff are very nice and the menu has something for everyone. And I mean everyone. They offer pancake in the variations for example - the regular and very delicious buttermilk pancake, a buckwheat and a whole wheat version. I had to try the buckwheat and it was delicious not sweet but full filling. Perfect side for that - a sunny side up egg. The food and beverage manager really put some thought into the menu items for example there is a protein power plate containing of chicken breast and two eggs any style. And it was good. A side of perfect buttered and crisped whole wheat toast and you have a perfect protein sandwich (toast costs extra). All in all surprisingly good food menu and tasty food! Also very reasonable prices for Vegas and a casino/hotel. ALs opens early and close late and serves all items the whole day! Once you found it and got over that it isn't appealing you will be rewarded with good food and a fair check!

    Big winner breakfast
    JI K.

    Located inside Tuscani Hotel & Casino. Clean and comfortable vibe restaurant. We ordered big winner breakfast (2 pcs pancakes, ham steak, 2 pcs toast, 2 pcs bacon & 2 eggs) and loco moco (for those who don't know loco moco, it's hamburger patty with 1 egg on top of white rice with gravy all over & macaroni salad. Food was good overall but macaroni salad was a little too bland. If you come from Hawaii.... You gotta get the macaroni salad on point because we can be quite the critic lol. Jessica was our server. She was very nice and fast. Always appreciate awesome wait persons because they're hard to find nowadays. Overall, good price, good food, good service.

    Loco moco with over easy eggs and tasty beef patty but needed more gravy (April 2025)

    Does the cheap steak & eggs deal from 2am-5am still exist?

    Do they still do ayce crab? If so, when and how much is it?

    I actually don't know. We always order the prime rib. Perhaps there is a menu online.

    Looking for email contact to request information for a party of 22?

    Dcarvalho@tuscanylv.com Or you can call Dana 702-893-8933

    I don't see crab on the regular menu but see plenty of photos of it? We will be in Vegas Aug 30-Sept 2nd. Anyone know if they serve crab regularly? Or perhaps Sunday brunch?

    I did see it on the regular menu. I'm not a seafood person so I can't remember the price.

    Is the dinner menu served 24/7?

    Yes it is

    What comes in the birthday platter? i heard about it but am not sure?

    Not sure; I would've asked too cause it was also my birthday but I'd either check the website, call or both.

    Is there a place to park?

    There is free parking as well as valet. There is no covered parking though, so it's gonna be hot!

    Is the $19.99 a.y.c.e crab leg special still going? Or has it changed?

    No more All You Can Eat. Its $19.99 for 1 pound of crab legs. And $9.99 for a refill of 3/4 of a pound.

    What type of crab do they serve for all you can eat?

    They serve snow crab! And it's super warm when you get it!

I was greeted by a friendly hostess when I walked in, and my waiter Ramsees (I think that's how you spell his name) was even better. He was welcoming, attentive, and took the time to give me some recommendations since it was my first visit. I ended up ordering a classic breakfast. Overall, it was very good. The eggs were a little greasy for my taste, and the pancakes were definitely on the sweet side--but to be fair, they are called sweet cream pancakes! What really stood out was the service. The gentleman sitting next to me seemed unhappy with absolutely everything and somehow made it all the waiter's fault. We never know what someone else is going through, but it certainly wasn't the server's fault that he had a bad day. Despite that, my waiter remained professional, patient, and kind throughout the entire interaction. I felt bad for him, but he handled the situation incredibly well. Thankfully, he mentioned it was his Friday and he had a couple of days off coming up. He definitely earned them! This review is really to recognize him for doing such a great job. Excellent customer service, a positive attitude, and professionalism even under pressure. I'll definitely be back.

Doc brown burger was ok, nothing to talk about and the grilled chkn sandwich lacked flavor. Didn't help the bread was so toasted, I got a cut from bitting down on it. I regret not saying something at the time cause the thought of spending money on bad food is just annoying. Definitely not worth the hype nor the time.
