| - The full slab of babyback ribs with sides served at Ellis Island for $12.99 is the best deal in town. Total hidden gem in Vegas. I am just not a fan of the parking situation there, or the long wait (unless you get there before they open). And they brew their own beer and have a really good boot beer too.
But if you have kids and dining on a budget, you can't bring them to eat there. Them are the rules. No exceptions. You can order it to go. No need to get upset at me, I just work here. Some tourists are jerks (not the words used in my head, still tryna keep it family friendly). You can try Metro Pizza, they are pretty cheap too. Kinda.
Wait a sec. This IS a review for "Village Pub & Poker".
Why is this fool telling me about Ellis Island Casino and their BBQ? What an idiot. Not Useful at all! Funny wise guy wasting my time is totally not Cool. Sheesh.
Dude, stop being so judgeamental. (Mr. Autocorrect, what do you mean it is spelled judgmental?) Like I have been mispronouncing this word the whole time, and no one bothered to correct me?!? I'm gonna need a minute.
Okay, I am good now. Learning something new everyday. Check.
So, yes, where was I? Before I had my imaginary rehearse conversation and learning to spell a new word in the process... Ellis Island's famous hidden gem full slab of Babyback Ribs for a steal of $12.99. The "Village Pub & Poker" locations might serve that on their menu!!! I know for certain the location on Eastern as you gradually drive away from the bright lights of Las Vegas and gaining elevation heading towards the rich neighborhood in Anthems have it on their menu. But not their not quite as famous BBQ Chicken (bartender told us each location may have slightly different items on their food menu).
In fact comparing to the restaurant menus between Village Pub and Ellis Island BBQ, the selection is way larger and more diverse than just the Ribs or BBQ Chicken or 1/2 Ribs & 1/2 Chicken Combo served at Ellis Island BBQ. I am still surprised that the two businesses share at least some of the same owners/investors. Like, I use like a lot, sorry annoying habit like a bad proverbial drug addiction, I would be promoting the heck out of this fact that you can get $12.99 full rack of Babyback Ribs without driving to Ellis Island. And they have locally brewed beers that Ellis Island brews on tap here! Size of the glass is smaller here, but still, pretty good trade off for the beers and food option without the long drive.
And it is open 24 hours a day!
You do have to be buzzed in after hours. And make sure whoever works inside can see you on their camera. I was wondering why the door was locked and when my friend pressed the buzzer and walks away to talk on the phone, nothing happened, and we just waited outside for 15 minutes. At least the weather was finally nice and early fall-like.
Anyway, service was friendly (we were obviously seated at the bar section with the video gaming machines), food came out pretty fast. The Ribs was not quite as good as the ones I've ordered at Ellis Island, but still better than most other nearby options. My friends enjoyed the beer selections. The side Sautéed Vegetables is pretty big, if you just want something healthier to munch on. The Root Beer Float looks good too (not even sure if you can even order it at Ellis Island BBQ, since I am usually too full to order that after the usual order of full slab of ribs).
So I would most likely be back again (after hours), since during normal biz hours I most likely would hit up Crafts Kitchen or try out Burger Joint, both are located in the same plaza.
Bonus: Their restroom is clean and bigger than I though it might have been. Might just have been cleaned too.
