Savor the Season: Fall Menus and Cozy Cocktails Arrive at MGM National Harbor

There’s something magical about autumn at MGM National Harbor—the crisp air, golden views, and flavors that warm you from the inside out. This season, the resort’s restaurants are rolling out creative new dishes and cocktails that celebrate the best of fall dining. Whether you’re craving coastal Italian comfort, game day favorites, or a sweet sip of pumpkin spice bliss, you’ll find your perfect flavor match here.

Osteria Costa: A Taste of the Amalfi Coast, with a Fall Twist

At Osteria Costa, fall meets the seaside. Start with Casarecci, featuring succulent shrimp and twisted pasta tossed in a spicy champagne tomato cream sauce, finished with a luxurious pecorino crema. Or dive into Local Rockfish Brodetto, a savory sea bass stew with mussels, greens, and San Marzano tomato broth.

The cocktails here are just as bold. Try Revenge Tastes Best When It’s Served Cold—a fall-ready mix of Crown Royal Apple, cinnamon whiskey, lime, ginger beer, and candied ginger. Feeling fancy? Sip on It’s Just Business, blending Hennessy VS with pear, spiced pear brandy, and lemon for a smooth, autumnal twist.

TAP Sports Bar: Comfort Food for Chilly Days

Nothing pairs with fall weekends quite like hearty comfort food and big-screen energy. At TAP Sports Bar, cozy up with Shrimp and Grits, loaded with andouille sausage, parmesan cream sauce, and roasted tomatoes—or dig into a Peruvian-Style Ribeye, marinated and stir-fried with red onions, Roma tomatoes, and green onions.

Wash it all down with a Maple Old Fashioned, featuring Bulleit bourbon, maple syrup, and orange bitters. Or, if you’re feeling adventurous, go for a Vibe Check—a colorful mix of tequila, rum, and cognac that tastes like a celebration—or the shareable Gameday Punch with rum, bourbon, citrus, and ginger beer.

Bellagio Patisserie: Sweet, Spiced, and Perfectly Sippable

When the craving for something cozy hits, follow the scent of espresso and sugar to Bellagio Patisserie. This fall, their drink lineup is pure comfort in a cup.

Try Livin’ La Vida Latte with brown sugar cinnamon and vanilla, or Falling for Pumpkin, topped with whipped cream and spiced maple drizzle. Tea lovers will fall for Chai Me to the Moon, a chai latte with coconut and toasted marshmallow syrups, or To Ube or Not Ube, a matcha creation crowned with sweet purple ube cold foam.

From indulgent bites to spiced sips, fall at MGM National Harbor is all about flavor, comfort, and connection. Plan your visit and taste your way through the season’s newest specials—only for a limited time.
