I am pretty sure Don Murray's has closed, or maybe they moved....
Mandalay Bay Recs?
My boyfriend and I dined at MiX on Saturday night and it was absolutely fantastic. Our reservations were at 6:30 and the sun was just beginning to set which made for a perfect view. Our waiter was relax and very conversational, not at all stuffy as I had encountered the previous night at another restaurant. We ordered the shrimp cocktail for an appetizer; horseradish custard and a spicy tomato sauce with mixed greens and about 6 large shrimp, such a cool twist on a classic. My bf ordered the seafood special; scallops, calamari stuffed with lobster, and nori coated potatoes, all very good. He ordered a side of the elbow pasta, gruyere and french ham; this was good but I can make this dish as home- nothing too extravagant. I went all out and ordered the beef tenderloin with froi gras, shaved black truffles and a black truffle sauce with a side of parsley mashed potatoes. My dish was insanely good and quite a nice birthday meal. We finished with the MiX candy bar which was a cute and delish dessert.
I have no complaints about this place. I read the mixes reviews on this site and others but ultimately chose it for the chic ambiance, the view, and the menu. The service and timing was impeccable and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone.
