| - Been awhile since I've written a review and since that last review, have to say this is now one of my favorite "locals" places in town and it's time to give them some well deserved love on Yelp. Loved the service the first time I walked in and keep going back on my home from the office.
Rachel & Rachel, Heather, Muoy, Austin and Aaron are all great bartenders and Gia is a great server... Super nice and genuinely great people that will put a big smile on your face with their upbeat personalities.
There are plenty of very cool regulars that go here consistently which should tell you a lot right there about the place. There is a reason why this place was named Best Locals bar by Seven Magazine last year.
This is truly a locals bar owned by a local and it's not uncommon to see Jason (the owner) there and is a super nice guy. As their motto goes, "We take care of our players like Old Vegas used to". For some of us that have been in Vegas since the 1990's... we certainly know what this means before everything got so corporate and neighborhood bars started nickel and diming everybody.
I'm not a big gambler and rarely play but they certainly take care of me and it's NOT one of those places that if you stick $20 bucks in, hit something and play it all back, you'll only get comped one drink. (Places like that annoy me.)
Happy Hour is 3 to 7 with $2 Domestic Draft pints and $5 Maker Marks. (Not entirely sure what other drink prices are.) Appetizers are $5 and WELL worth $5. $2 Coors Light Pints during Football games and it's a GREAT place to watch Games with big TV's right at the bar or a couple of huge ones in the back dining area. (If you love The Bears -- this is certainly a great place to go for Bears games.)
Even when it's not Happy Hour, I highly suggest the Street Tacos and as others have mentioned, the Nachos are divine.
$ for $, one of the best places in town that I've been to and I've been to a lot of places. Your mileage might vary but I can guarantee you if you are cool to the staff, you will certainly be taken care of.
