Just because it’s happy hour doesn’t mean the food has to suck. Chef Michael Mina’s two world-class casual eateries at the MGM Grand are offering some of the best food and drink specials in town. At Sea Blue, you can toss back $4 Stella Artois drafts from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Sunday through Friday while enjoying $1 shrimp and $1 oyster specials. In addition, lobster corndogs and salt and pepper calamari are half off.
At Nob Hill Tavern, Mina offers a late-night happy hour with food and drink specials every day from 10 until midnight. Selected snacks and appetizers are $8; specialty cocktails are also only $8; and beers are $4. You’ll want to come back for Nob Hill’s Whiskey Tailgate at 5:30 p.m. Sundays and Mondays, during which all classic whiskey cocktails are $8, Anchor Steam bears are $6, and the tailgate sampler special is $11 per person (three person minimum).
