My boyfriend and I stopped by for a drink around 9:30pm on November 1st.
When we arrived there was no line at the bottom, so we went right up into the elevator, no cover before 10. Very nice view down the strip from the elevator too! We first went to the bar to get a drink, a captain and coke with lime for me and a jack and coke for my boyfriend, $20 for both, but pretty strong. We then looked for a place to hang out and enjoy the view. I'd read that usually you can go out on the patio before 10pm, when they reserve it for bottle service, but at 9:30 on a Saturday night, it was all already reserved, although nobody was out there. So we walked around the corner, and into the restaurant mistakenly, and figured out that that patio over there was for people dining, and so went into the bathroom over there to look for the cool view. There was no view there, but the bath attendant told me we needed to go to the other one over by the bar. So we decided to just enjoy our drinks and found a seat behind the bar, looking toward Mandalay Bay and out opposite the strip.
After about a half hour our drinks were done and we decided to check out the bathrooms. Very cool! I didn't have to use them, but tried to take some pictures from inside the stall with the floor to ceiling windows. We then took one last look out the window down the strip, and went down the elevator, where I took a cool video of going down to the bottom. When we came out of the elevator it was about 10:10pm, and there was a line of about 20 people already, so we must have came at just the right time.
All in all, this was a neat place to go grab a drink, but a little to posh for my taste. Great views though, and if you're into the lounge with bottle service scene, this is a place worth checking out. If anything, go for the view in the bathroom!
