Is there a more apropos and better location to watch Las Vegas Raiders games than at Raiders Tavern & Grill in The M Resort? Even better, the restaurant is expansive; the design is welcoming, with plenty of natural lighting and great views of the Las Vegas Strip in the distance; and the food and beverages are solid.
The most recent stop at Raiders Tavern & Grill was for lunch on Aug. 6, and the meal delivered on all counts. It was hot as Hades outside, but there was plenty of free covered parking. Walking to Raiders Tavern & Grill, The M Resort still feels fresh, clean and new since opening on March 1, 2009.
We over-ordered off the elevated pub fare menu, and it was awesome: chicken nachos, inside out pizza, the Mad Maxx Burger (by Maxx Crosby of the Las Vegas Raiders), chicken fried steak, supreme pizza (sausage, peppers + more), onion rings + we canceled our dessert order because we were very full.
The food was great, as was the service. We really enjoyed the inside out pizza, Mad Maxx Burger β especially if you love mushrooms β and onion rings, but everything was delicious.
The design and natural lighting really add to the enjoyment and experience at Raiders Tavern & Grill. Itβs a solid place to watch the Raiders, and all sports, but without the dingy smoke and dark lighting.
And yes, we had a lot of leftovers. Additional bonuses: There is plenty of free lot and covered parking at The M Resort, and Raiders Tavern is open until 3 a.m. seven days a week. Touchdown!
