While the place may turn you off or make you hesitate to go in, the food is FANTASTIC.... and reasonably priced. We have not had a bad meal there yet ! The steak special - yep - just be sure to get your Casino card first. Too bad they don't include the beer or root beer anymore. When we arrive in Vegas, we drop off our bags and walk over to Ellis. I get the steak special and my spouse gets the Shrimp Scampi. Breakfast is great. My only complaint would be sometimes it is slow getting the food to you. We found this place because the Locals all praised it.
