If you have read my review of Bj's on Tenaya then you know I am a fan of the franchise. I decided to give the Tropicana location a try since a friend of mine was in town. He wanted to have some good food, good drinks and shoot some pool. Fortunately we got to do all 3. Not every Bj's pub has pool tables but this one does. We walked in and as per the custom we were greeted like we had been there a million times. We sat down and Trish our bartender immediately took our order for drinks. I wish they had more on tap like the Tenaya branch but not a deal breaker. We ordered food and as usual were not disappointed. I can say they do not serve typical bar food. Reasonably priced delicious menu items are the fair here. I got the Poke stack and it was excellent. Also got the Tequila chicken pasta. Not at all what I expected. Had a spice and some artichoke hearts leaving me wanted more each bite. My friend had the Lobster dip and before I could ask for a taste it was gone. He also ordered the mac-n-cheese. I have heard about this dish and can say if you're going to make mac-n-cheese you need to take it one step above the crowd. This is over the top. Smokey bacon flavored layered with cheesy goodness in every bite.
Trish was very attentive and our drinks never empty. I forget the name of the Male bartender behind the bar but he was upbeat and on top of helping with our beverages as well. We were taken care of in the manner of a regular who is there all the time. Good to know that across the board nothing was different from one store to the other.
They have 2 pool tables but at the time only one was working so we had to wait to play. But with good food and great customer service we hardly noticed the time go by.
Pool tables are clean and cues are maintained and strait.
I believe it was the manager Doug who spoke to us (Hope I got name right) (I had been drinking so memory faded) and Doug(?) was kind enough to buy us a shot for any problems we had. We didn't have any.
Thank you Bj's for being my new go to Vegas Pub. Can you build one in Henderson?
Will go here again. And as usual will be at Tenaya on my normal days to go. You need to check this place out. If you are staying on the strip and want to avoid the pricey bars in the Casino and have an excellent meal this is the place to go.
