Saturday night 2/7/26. Under staffed. Empty tables, no crowd, and still had to wait 15 min to be seated. Hostess was apathetic. Manager, Hugo, was polite, but trying to be our server and bartender with long waits between our greet, our drink order. Atmosphere was loud with music inside clashing with noise and music out in promenade. Bread was stale, coke was flat, Based on where things were trending, we got up and left and went over to Ginger for a much better experience where they were staffed., hustling, and engaged with customers .

The reviews of this place are absurd. This place has the best vibes and the food is incredible. The chefs attention to detail are noticed. I get why they can’t have a place open that often. You will never wait and the vibes are right. The wine is incredible. Dine in. I love eating at this bar so much. MGM has made major quality improvements overall. You will not regret this meal.

One problem, they could not find my reservations for my large party, but because it was slow, they accommodated us.

Ate at other locations and had great service and food. This location is disappointing and service is awful. Food wasn’t temperature hot, more like room temperature. No kids meal option, but the size that was served was a kids meal size but cost over $20. What was supposed to be a pre celebration dinner was not a great one. Portion sizes are small for the cost. Took over an hour to get order placed and then another hour to get food. Lots of empty tables so they weren’t too busy. Too many options in this area, don’t waste your time and money here.

Excellent brunch buffet and very nice servers. The pasta dishes and breakfast items were absolutely delicious. Only one incident, there was some confusion about which line was for omelettes and which line was for pasta. Some of the other patrons were combative regarding who was in line first. Unfortunately, this is what you get with the “others” . Overall, excellent food and service. I highly recommend!

I went for brunch. The food was cold. The choices were limited. It was not good. For the limited time it would seve better to have the buffet replenished more often. The food was not good. It was not good. Especially not for the price.
Chef Joe and his team really helped make my first time eating here really amazing. From great service to Chef Joe himself just being really great to talk to to the food being AMAZING. Some of the best pasta I've EVER had! Looking forward to seeing them all working there next time I come!

I ate here for brunch. While the food was ok , especially the shrimp and cheese grits was very good, I was disappointed with the variety of options. When you pay $50+ for breakfast you expect a more options to choose from. For meat there was the option of bacon and sausage. There was also scrambled eggs. The potatoes was cooked well but for a breakfast meal no one really wants to eat whole potatoes. The waffle batter needs to be adjusted so that it comes out less crispy. There was a omelette station and the cooks was doing a great job. Beyond that the atmosphere and service was pretty good.

Aside from gambling, me and my friends come to MGM to dine in at Osteria Costa due to Chef Joe.
Chef Joe always has a smile on his face and cooks our food with love, charisma, and speed. He creates an engaging and lighthearted environment that makes me and my friends wanting to come back for second plate every time! I almost never name drop in reviews unless the service is top tier, but honestly Chef Joe deserves it. Chef Joe should get a pay raise ASAP for the value he brings to this restaurant! 💯💯💯

Osteria Costa is a nice place to eat and enjoy your party or enjoy the environment alone. I was with a party of 10. Our waiter was good, but could have been a bit more attentive to our table. However, my food was good and my overall experience was good. I would definitely go again.
Foos was not satisfying, service below standard.
