A superlative selection of whiskies in a classy environment. Good cocktails as well. Noisy and crowded. Service was polite but not very attentive. read more

Outstanding bar at MGM. If you love whiskey, rye or bourbon. This is the place for fabulous drinks. I ordered a smoked old fashioned and Victor created one one the best I have ever had. Service 8s great and fast and most of all friendly. Conversation was part of the drink price and well worth it. Nice, quiet and relaxed atmosphere. read more

Whiskey Down - Old fashioned and a whiskey sour - Lounges Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

It was a nice comfortable lounge, however we stood at the bar for quite sometime while the bartender chatted with another customer (who already had a drink). Finally after taking our order like it was an inconvenience because we didn't order from our table, I heard him ask someone else to make our drinks. She sighed so heavily in annoyance and apparently refused because I saw him staring at the menu while making our drinks. Yes, this is a whiskey bar but if you are going to offer cocktails then you should know how to make them and make them right. $100 later we got our 4 drinks, two of which were not good. What a bummer and waste of money. read more

We came in for some drinks before our show at the theater. I told our bartender that I wanted champagne and she looked shocked that they had champagne! I had to point it out on the mobile menu to her and it was comical. So she went to the back to bring me my bottle of champagne but couldn't open it. The other bartender helped. They only had plastic cups so I was drinking a nice bottle of champagne in plastic cups! LMAO A dive bar at MGM grand, bartenders were friendly and they had live band so it was not bad! read more

This is a great lounge to hang out and have a nice drink. It's located inside the casino and has lots of seating. The service was quick and drinks are good. They had live music on Friday night, which was great. Great place to chill before hitting the party scene or for any occasion. read more

Nice atmosphere, place was very busy and understaffed, but the ones who were working really kicked ass.

Hung out with a buddy from work after a long day to enjoy cocktails and cigars. Located in the MGM Grand Casino, Whiskey Down has a wide variety of whiskeys that you can enjoy with your stogie. Order options from the bar or tables and lounge seating with waitstaff. A couple of flatscreens, music in the background and an open view of the casino floor, it's not a quite relaxing atmosphere but I enjoyed it nevertheless, with a Davidoff cigar and Old Fashion cocktail. read more

Whiskey Down - Davidoff Winston Churchill and Makers Mark Old Fashion - Lounges Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Stopped here for cocktails on a Saturday evening. The old fashioned was horrible. The bartender used a regular cherry, orange slice, and forgot to add the bitters and syrup. It was basically a glass of bourbon with incorrect garnish. I told the server. Instead of remaking the drink the bartender literally just added the ingredients to the existing glass. Definitely did not meet expectations read more

Inside the MGM Grand Hotel, off the casino floor. Located right next to the David Copperfield theater. I ordered a dark mojito for my wife, tasted ok, needed more sugar and too much lime. Chill dance music played in the background. The ambience is nice and dim. Bartenders and waitress was friendly. read more

We came here because it was listed as a whiskey bar. We asked for a drink menu, selected a few whiskeys we were interested in and the bartender told us they didn't have any of those and that we should look at the shelf for what they have available. He said they were told to give the menu if asked for it, but they didn't carry a lot of those items. The drinks we order ent weren't terrible, the old fashioned was fine but the Manhattan had a unique taste to it and not in a good way. They did have live music which was nice. I wouldn't call it a specialty bar, but it's an ok place if you just want to stop by for a simple drink. read more

Server recommended I get the Basil Hayden flight. Well worth it, and the Rye was the top in my opinion! The Rye is the best and to wash it all down with an old fashioned can't complain at all. read more

Great venue, plenty of seating inside, located just off the casino floor by the main entrance. Friendly servers that come to the table or you can order drinks from the bar. We came here for a drink before going to a show. As you can guess from the name, they have a good selection of whiskeys and it is a good place for an old fashioned. read more

We enjoyed grabbing a drink and a cigar here. Not a "cigar lounge" per se, but they have a small humidor with decent selections (I grabbed a Fuente Hemmingway Short Story). The waitress had a cutter/lighter, but next time I will bring my own. Lively environment with a lot going on. read more

This place looks classy and fancy but don't let that intimidate you! Very laid back kind and welcoming! No reservation is required just walk on up and have a drink!! Service was a delight our bartender was friendly knowledgeable and made a excels recommendation when I wasn't quite sure what I wanted he made the perfect selection!!! Jose was amazing! He even gave some Vegas local scoop and recommended the MGM buffet to try which we will be going tomorrow! Thanks for making our experience phenomenal!! My whisky tonic was smooth and soooo well prepared! The ambiance is classy, fancy and fun but so laid back and welcoming. Can't wait to come back!! read more

Big lounge on the floor of the MGM Grand close to the hotel lobby. Dropped by late Sunday night and found live music and a cute cocktail waitress named Jin. Tried the Whiskey Down special drink $14 it was tasty and strong. After downing it I was so lit I could have powered Fremont Street Lmao. The one problem here was there was no bar food available to soften the heavy hand of the bartender. My friend went to the food court and brought back pizza. Unfortunately the WD manager came over and said food was not licensed there and we would have to leave...really ? You didn't provide the food so why would it need to be licensed? Well even though the manager was a sad Karen this place was still fun to chill at. As an added bonus it's within stumbling distance to the hotel elevators :P read more

Im all for a good strong drink but their old fashioneds were nothing but bourbon. Definitely not a properly balanced old fashioned . If your goal is to get smashed then come here.....you'll get a glass of pure alcohol read more

We just had drinks here, and it was pleasant and tasty. It was quiet and dark, which was a welcomed contrast to the gaming areas of the casino. Good service, good drinks--we'd return if someone wants to meet here. read more

Love that this place is open late and I can get a glass of good wine. Nice atmosphere and the service has always been friendly. Once we were there when a duo was playing, good set list. A reliably fun time! read more

This place was another bar located in the MGM we usually stay at the signature's nearby. They were having a gala the night we came here so the bar was packed!! Service was slow because it was so busy ! They had a beautiful singer entertaining everyone as they mingled, we met some good people! Crazy what music and alcohol does. read more

Nice venue. Dark with lots of oak and high lighting, definitely a sophisticated atmosphere. I ended up here after L'Atelier for an after-dinner, pre-gambling cocktail, played a little video poker, won $300. I sat at the bar and it was busy, but the bartender was attentive and very helpful. The cocktail waitresses were friendly. Check out the bathroom, pretty fancy for a casino bar. Nice place to relax, kick back and enjoy a fancy cocktail. read more

Nice lounge, I loved that it was low key and very calm. Service was great! Liked the music and atmosphere

This was my first stay at MGM grand and wanted to try this bar and I am left feeling very awkward. I'll start off with the positive. The drinks here are quite strong! So if you are looking for a strong drink to get you started that is a whisky or bourbon. This is definitely a good place to go! Awkward story time. I came here due to getting a complimentary drink for the place through myVEGAS. I got the slip and then the bartender recommended an old fashioned and then used my complimentary slip to pay for it. However, the bartender told us that this was not an option as the old fashioned is $16 (apparently) and the free drink is only for those under $14. We were given no menu or knowledge of the pricing of this and asked if we could just pay the remainder but the bartender was not having it and started giving us attitude. As it came to an impasse, the bartender gave up and said he will update it to a "free drink" item and rang up the coupons. We did felt bad and gave a $10 tip and wished him a happy holiday and he just huffed and ignored us. Mind you, we were the only ones he was serving as well. After this experience, I would recommend avoiding this place if you can and just head to the lobby bar. I would also hope that mlife would make it really clear that we have to ensure in how we use our free rewards. Either way, we do not appreciate the service we got and it was handled improperly at best. read more

What an amazing place. Very comfortable, great selection, and great staff. Zeus was great conversation and very much allowing us to enjoy ourselves. We were worried about the cigar smoke, but very hospitable. We will definitely return. read more

Was really hopeful for this place because it looked nice from outside. However, when we sat down all open tables had used napkins. The waitress eye rolled us when we asked for a drink menu. She left for a few second to get one and returned with a booklet that only had one page in it even though we can see a huge wall full of multiple different whiskies. Oh and she never bothered to get the table cleaned off. But two stars because it is our fault for not knowing what to drink. We left in hopes that her night got better. read more

Everything was terrible. Terrible whisky selection. Maybe the worst Old Fashioned I've ever had. However, 5 start to the solo singer/guitar player that was there. He was incredible. read more

Good classy bar in MGM Grand. Maybe the nicest thing inside. They have shitloads of bourbon, most moderately to high priced. It's expected to not be cheap of course. There's a few reasonable concoctions too. It has Bulleit advertised. Bartender recommended the Coke mixer. Good choice, it has an excellent taste. It's just way too expensive. It's about $12 for a shot which is way too high. They also make cocktails if you don't want the very hard stuff. It has a good selection of bourbon. It also has very expensive bourbon. This is expected since it's in the middle of a fancy casino though. read more

Whiskey Down - Bulleit - Lounges Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

When ever I come to Vegas, I stay at the MGM and Whiskey Down is one of the places I look forward to visiting. Let me rephrase that, I USE TO LOOK FORWARD TO VISITING. First off, pay no attention to the "OPEN 24 HOURS" as it appears they now have "Summer" hours and close by 2am. That would explain why when I sat down at a table that everyone ignored me and I had to go to the bar only to find out they were closing within 30 minutes. A lounge only brings in dollars and you can run this lounge with as little as 2 FTE therefore; why close it at 2am? Go figure...all the more reason to check out places at Ceasars and the Wynn. read more

Whiskey Down - Ya, open 24 hours - Lounges Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

3.5 STARS Since I had a flight at 6am, my group of three decided to pull an all nighter. We were staying at MGM Grand, so figured we should check out Whiskey Down since it's open 24 hours. We stopped by on Saturday, January 26th around 12:30am. We started at the bar and just kept our eye out for a table. Once one freed up, we quickly pounced on it and moved. *Whiskey in the Jar: mint-infused old forester bourbon, fresh watermelon, lime juice, ginger beer ($15) *Give Me My Privacy: 1792 bourbon mgm select, eagle rare mgm select, garrison brothers mgm select ($19) *I'm Single: four roses single barrel, eh taylor single barrel, old forester single barrel ($19) I decided to do one of their tasting flights. Can't remember which one I picked, but we basically shared, so I tried both. Both flights were fine. I like tasting new pours. We'd been drinking all day, so the one round was actually perfect for sipping. We were here for a good two hours, so it was nice just chilling and talking. I'm glad we got a table as it wasn't as comfy crowding around one seat at the bar. Nice bar to chill if you can find a table. read more

Whiskey Down is an upscale bar on the floor of the MGM Grand casino. We grabbed a few cocktails on our way out one night. The room looked great, all dark wood and leather furniture. My old fashioned was made without much precision and appeared to be just bourbon poured on ice with cherries and an orange slice as garnish. It was far from the best old fashioned I've ever had but it was strong as hell. The bartender appeared to free pour about four ounces of bourbon in the glass so I wasn't complaining too much. Service was extremely short, verging on unfriendly. Prices are fairly high ($19) but not surprising given the location. read more

It's a casino bar. The drinks are meh, by far the worst whiskey sour I've ever had, and the Moscow mule was horrible. Their premixed drinks are not good. I watched some guy jump on a table and that broke and made everyone laugh. Got a free Fiji water from it. Besides that, the singer and bar looks cool since it's at at mgm. But damn, it was honestly one of the top 5 worst bars I've been too. read more

Honestly the food is good and good people watching HOWEVER!! The rotating bar, Bartender was rude for no reason. I simply asked 2 questions, 1. Can I bring a bring a chair to the bar because it was 2 ppl in my party. And he YELLED (as if I asked 14 times) NO, you absolutely can not. . 2. I asked, (once I saw 2 seats available) can I take these? He YELLED AGAIN, NO, it's for my regulars.... ‍. Umm Okay. And the yelling was as if I had asked more than once. So I told the waitstaff.... They said he's a a Di*k..... so they know about his behavior. I was so Turned off. read more

Whiskey Down is a little lounge cocktail bar inside of MGM. They have a large whiskey bar. Good amount of seating if you want to just relax. Service was nice. Drinks came out fast. Whiskey In a Jar - $14 - Fruity whiskey cocktail in a mason jar. Not overly sweet. You can taste the whiskey in the back. Old Fashioned - $15 - Made as expected. read more
