This hidden gem is an amazing place! It's not a big place so it can get crowded and the bartenders tell me that the people come in waves - so take a chance! The hunt for Ghost Donkey was fun - I walked by and missed it so I was on a back tracking route. I was so happy to finally get to the right place! Fortunately I did get a seat at the bar and the bartenders are super friendly, attentive, and welcoming. I was between the steak and chicken mole nachos and the bartender said the chicken nachos were her favorite. Holy smokes! These might be the best nachos ever! I loved the flavor of the mole and it was well put together - great balance of all flavors! I would definitely get this again! It's a shareable item for sure.

We had such a great time at this place. The decor is so fun and the bartenders are knowledgeable and attentive. It's very small, so be prepared to grab a drink and stand until a seat opens up, but everyone in there is on the same page and friendly. Their take on the manhattan is delicious and the espresso martini was fantastic. No decaf option, but that's a pretty common issue at bars. The food looked and smelled incredible but we had dinner reservations elsewhere so we didn't try it on this trip.

Nestled in a cozy setting, this concealed bar quickly fills up. If you have a passion for Tequila and Mezcal, this spot is a must-visit. Personally not a huge Mezcal enthusiast, I decided to go with Tequila instead. The bartender crafted a delightful cocktail using Watermelon and basil. It was delicious and refreshing! Adding a hint of salt to the shaker enhanced the cocktail. Anthony, the bartender is incredibly well-versed in Tequila.

On a stay at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas, we heard of a little hidden bar on the property. I like a little adventure so we set out to find Ghost Donkey. Located in the back of the food court, look for the exit sign and you will see a door with a donkey on it. Enter and you will find this tiny bar that gives off speakeasy vibes. If you are claustrophobic, this is not the place for you. It is neatly decorated with hanging lights and a life size donkey on one wall. Seating is limited to the small bar and a few small tables off in the corner. I don't know what the seating capacity is here, but it felt more like a stand around and chill for a quick drink type spot. We were lucky enough to snag some seating and enjoy a few rounds. Customer service was good and the staff was very knowledgeable about their products and cocktails. This place exclusively makes tequila and mezcal drinks. I will say neither of those tickles my fancy but when expertly made into cocktails, I can dig it. Tequila brings out my fun alter ego, so when in Vegas I will imbibe. Prices are your typical Vegas prices but not too terrible. I went with the Burro Tropical, mainly because I saw it had rum in it. I love rum and was hoping it would be the more prominent taste in it even though it also had tequila in it. It also had passion fruit, lemon, ginger and soda. It definitely had tropical vibes not only in presentation, but also in taste. It was so good I had to get another. We ended up having more than one before dinner and enjoyed the cozy atmosphere here. They do have a small food menu if the munchies hit. We always end up at the Cosmo at some point for every Vegas trip and I would definitely come back!

Ghost Donkey speakeasy at Cosmopolitan Hotel only seats 27! This place only serves TEQUILA, MEZCAL and a few beer options, but my friends loved it. I actually don't like beer, Tequila or mezcal, but the Truffle Nachos were SO delicious! Service was excellent; our waitress explained all of the drink options and was a pro a remembering who ordered what, even though our group kept moving around and growing in number of persons. The entrance only has a tiny little picture of a donkey so it's fun to look for. It's on level 2 of the Boulevard tower of the Cosmopolitan, behind the Hattie B restaurant. Doors open at 4. We came 10 minutes early on a Friday and there was already a line of 8 people in front of us. Side Note: I was loving all of the 90s Hip Hop music selections on Friday night!

Always a must visit in our Vegas trips! The spot is a perfectly hidden, but not too hidden, locale behind the food court. Look for the exit with the so key and you're there. First entry might seem a little odd, like am I really going the right direction, but as soon as you open the door your transported to a fun little spot. The space is a little cramped and can fill Up quickly. Two seating areas that might hold 8, possibly 10 if you like each other, and a bar. We've tried both but prefer the seating with tables. Drinks are always good and unique. Don't be afraid to get a recommendation if you're unsure of what to try. And don't sleep on the nachos! The chicken mole are delicious!

Speakeasy bar inside Cosmo food hall. It's not really hidden. You'll see the sign with the hours if you pay attention. Capacity is 27 but there were more people than that. Basically seating for 27 people if you count the bar and two tables. Everyone else just stood around. Dress code is casual. There were people in shorts and flip flops. Be sure to grab a menu book for an extensive list of drinks. We ordered from the list on the wall and didn't realized they had more options. This bar specializes in Mezcal and tequila. We got: -watermelon basil margarita: loved this but it was made with mezcal and I wasn't a fan. But my fiancé loved it. -Stealth margarita slushy: this was made with tequila which was to my liking. -Smoked corn & coconut manhattan: this was on the wall and not in the book. We would have ordered a mezcal old fashioned had we saw it but this was in the book and not on the wall. The manhattan was disgusting. The smoked flavor and coconut was like cough syrup. They also serve food. Food menu on the wall is the same as the boom. Very casual vibe. Easy to make friends because the place is so small and everyone is in close together.

Finally happened to be in the area when they opened at 4pm and were second in line. Yes, a line forms at least 15min prior (this was a Friday) since the inside space is surprisingly small. This a TEQUILA & MEZCAL only bar. I had to laugh at all the people coming in for vodka drinks who kept getting turned away. I haven't been a fan of tequila since my early 20s when I overdid it. My husband loves it, so I was going to make the best of it for him. I got the Pistolero, a pepper inspired tequila drink (my weakness is peppers). It was delicious! My husband got the Altos Paloma and really enjoyed how tart it was. We ended our experience with sharing a Burro Tropical, which is more like a tiki drink. Bonus: it comes with a cute plastic piñata as a garnish. This was my favorite by far! Even though I'm not a tequila girl, this may make me reconsider. Thanks for the great service too!

Been in TWICE in the span of a week. It's right behind Hattie's Chicken in the food court area. Walk all the way to the back. Slide your self past the white donkey and you will find yourself swept away to Mexico. Mezacal is my favorite thing on Earth besides my dog. If I could own a tequila farm I would. This place can get packed at certain hours like happy hour. Groups will come and go. It's perfect for a quick date as the music isn't too loud. The waitress is always nice checking on you. First time I got the frozen cucumber drink and a strawberry shot. The second time we got the old fashion, frozen cucumber, the chicken mole nachos, and water. Had a blast every time! Doesn't matter if you sit at the bar or in the booths. I love this place.
