    Skyfall Lounge: Go to the W Hotel and take a lift to the 64th floor. Come for the view. While not exactly the most impressive view, and the smudged glass being a deterrent to get close, it's still worth visiting. Ample seating indoors with a little outdoors. Most of the tables were reserved the night we went so grab a seat at the bar if you want. If you're in the area, pop in. If not, you're not missing much.

    Recently took a brief trip to Vegas - visited Mandalay Bay, one of my favorite resorts on the Strip. They have a panoramic bar high up at the top of the hotel, Skyfall. Finally got there, and heres the good bad and ugly. First, the bar staff was nice, and the space is classy. I went earlier in the evening, and it was not crowded yet. It gave me a chance to check it out. The crowd is a little dressy - I would not go wearing casual beachwear, although I did see a few jeans. I sat at the bar, and the views of the strip were cool. You can also go out onto their balcony, and take photos out there. I left before sunset, but the location is great for viewing the sun setting on the Strip. So a few concerns - when I went up initially, the hostess on the ground floor was not overly friendly or welcoming. If you want a little gatekeeping, this feels like it. Second, the location I sat at when I was at the bar (towards the back, away from the entrance) definitely had an unpleasant smell - like a rank plumbing smell. I kind of endured it for a bit, but when I went to the balcony, there was no smell like that, so I am not sure if it was because I was near the bar prep or refrigeration area or what, but it was unpleasant. I did consider mentioning it to the staff, but I had to go, and did not have time to bring it up. I would consider going back, but hope these items are able to be addressed.

    Last night we stumbled upon this lounge in the W after a game. I've been to the location in Dallas before, but this one takes the cake! I loved how you take an elevator directly up to the lounge and it's all glass. You see the beautiful strip as you make your way up. Once you step in, you are greeted and taken to your reserved section. You can place your order and enjoy the beautiful skyline from your seat. It's also an option to step out in a covered outdoor section. Gorgeous! Drinks - I enjoyed the "Setting Sun" under the mocktail section. There was an option to add whiskey. I added Woodford Reserve and it was perfect! Overall, I will give this experience 5/5 . I cannot wait to go back!

    A nice cocktail lounge with a great view of the Las Vegas strip. What was nice is the fact that you can make a reservation for a table without having buy a bottle service or meet any minimum charge, like some other lounge, especially when you have a large group. We came on a Saturday night a bit early around 6:30- 7 o'clock the place was moderately busy. What we did not like was that the waitress kept coming back every minute or so asking us if we were ready to order our drinks. We asked for a couple minutes every time, but she kept coming back every single minute. We felt very rushed. So the menus that is posted on yelp a few years back had food. Well there's no food- So don't go thinking that you will be able to get something to eat. There were several text messages asking to confirm prior to our reservation. Yet no mention of the fact that they do not have food, until the very last message, which was about an hour away from our reservation time saying there won't be any food service. Had we known in advance we would picked another venue. Guess that's why they didn't want to tell you in advance. Things that make you go hmmm.

    Saw the signs for a bar on the 64th floor and had to check it out. We did not make reservations but did go to the bar and spun our seats around - the bartender was ready for that. We had a few great drinks and really enjoyed the view as things transitioned to evening. A person we rode up in the elevator with said it will be fun to see helicopters coming back as things get dark as they return from the Grand Canyon. He was right! While the table seating is all reserved (pretty easy to do), there is a glass walled section outside that is really cool to check out. The vibe here is a classy casual.

    Short review as we went up here to quickly check out the views before heading to dinner. Amazing views of the Las Vegas strip. Definitely try to go here when the sun goes down so you can view the lights of Vegas. Inside is a nice bar with some seating areas along the windows with a view. Would be a great place to hang out with friends, have a few cocktails, and enjoy the views. I would think it could get crowded during the prime times. We went up around 8pm and there was no crowd at all. Check it out if you're in the Mandalay Bay Area.!

    What a view.

    Vegas YouTube influencers pointed me to this rooftop bar and it did not disappoint as far as cocktails and view. The only let down is they got rid of food options (may come back in the future). Everything else was a great experience here and seeing the strip from 64 floors up is impressive. I'd recommend making reservations.

    Came here for pre-dinner drinks. I had a gin and tonic and it was pretty strong. The service was pretty slow and it was not even that crowded. Ambiance is cool it's a lounge vibe. They have a nice bar. I wish they had more of a beer selection. The main attraction is the view of Vegas from this bar. Also, what is a bit cool/weird is that the views from 2 out of the 3 woman's bathroom stalls you can see outside to the next door hotel. Our waitress was ok.

    I was excited to bring my best friend to Skyfall Lounge. Our last time here was about a year ago. We completely loved the food, drinks and views at that time. Unfortunately, at this visit, we learned that the restaurant next door had closed and they no longer served food. Lounge is not as lively as we remember. Dark and appeared under construction. Views are still beautiful. Drinks and service were still great. I recommend for a quick drink and photo op.

    Did not make a reservation, but we did get a good seat at the bar. You have access to their outside viewing area whether you have a reservation or not. Plus, they have a heating lamp if you choose to stand outside and you dont need a reservation to! My husband is very particular about his drinks, so when he says this was his favorite on the trip, you know its either the best or one of the best in town. He put the bartender (sadly dont remember the name. Shouldve noted before hopping to the next) for a challenge and the bartender hit all the marks. He apparently made a $100 espresso martini and its not even on the menu. Literally looks like liquid gold! We wanted to try it another day but he sadly was off for the rest of our stay. Definitely recommend reservation or not! The lounge has a DJ, so it was loud. Some people danced and most people just lounged in their seats. Great vibes all around.

    I expected Skyfall Lounge to be a highlight of the night, but it ended up being one of the biggest disappointments of the trip. The room was nearly empty, giving it more of a hotel lobby bar feel than a rooftop lounge in Las Vegas. The crowd skewed older, the vibe was flat, and the cocktail menu felt like an afterthought. No food available at all, which made the whole experience feel even more limited. For a city known for high energy and late nights, Skyfall just didn't show up. A beautiful view can't carry the entire night.

    Shaggy the bartender is 11/10 best bartender in LV if not the world. I come here often and he knows my drink order and gets it ready and even stuffs the olives himself -- fresh! I told all my girlfriends about him. He's the best!! I'll be back -- thank you shaggy!!!

    5 star experience! From the express elevator ride, the ultra hip decor, crafted cocktails, and of course the view, I had a thoroughly enjoyable experience! I was seated at a setee overlooking the Vegas skyline. I opted for a classic dirty vodka martini and the charcuterie board. Martini was excellent. Charcuterie was very well presented with three cheeses, three meats and bread and tid bits. I got there about 6:30 and it was not busy. That didn't last. So if you want a good spot, get there before 7 for sure. The table next to me ordered the burrata and tomato appetizer. It looked like a dessert so I had to ask them about it. It was as delicious as it looked. And they also enjoyed the margarita pizza. This is a great spot to enjoy the view, be chill, and not have people parading by. This is definitely a place to go if you are in Vegas! My server LaTisha is an absolute doll! She made sure I felt welcome and relaxed. I mean seriously? Great hospitality is everything. Mwah! Note! They have a semi-dress code. Don't show up in shorts and tennis shoes like i did the first time and they didn't let me up. True story! So go with casual dressy, no flip flops or tank tops.

All I remember was going through the casino areas of Paris Hotel, and then going down one floor to the Horseshoe area to reach this bar just minutes before closing on a Friday close to midnight. I quickly grabbed a seat at the bar area and perused the menu, which has a ton of drinks, beers, wines, mocktails and even snacks. Even when close to closing time, patrons filled up all the bar seating which isn't a lot; most seating was couches and tables near the knickknacks. I got myself the Bee's Knees, which is cranberry and pineapple juice, apple puree, cinnamon fire syrup and some ginger beer according to their menu just outside the front entrance. I can only describe the taste as a sweetened fruit juice with a ton of fizz from the ginger beer, and the pineapple and apple came out on top for overpowering the drink overall. Some mint leaves and a slice of grapefruit were added in, and the mint leaves made this drink feel more like a special cocktail. This and other mocktails is $13 before tax, so pretty high price especially when considering their other alcoholic drinks are not that much higher than that... I actually still loved my drink, though! It was a nice wrap-up for my last day in Vegas and I'm curious now to look a lot more carefully at the stuff on the walls if I ever come here again!

Most other fine establishments are also expensive in Vegas. It is what it has become. Is that good? Probably not; however, it does give you the opportunity to experience something unique and special. Although we had one server, the servers worked very well together throughout our 90 minutes here and really team assisted with each other. Between the two of us, we had three drinks. You can page through the very detailed menu, and I decided to have the Passion's Serenade drink, which was a glass partially frozen with a coconut and passionfruit puree and then also had some chocolate rum, vanilla and fresno chili. It was a delicious drink, and actually was a great "sit back and wait" drink, because it took a while for the frozen portion to melt. The experience comes with some complimentary bar snacks and then some complimentary mini jello shots on the way out. The check is presented in an exquisite "Vault" Type of book. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would return again in the future. Expect drink prices to range from about $30 to $70, with some even higher for the "market price" drinks.
