Favorite bar in Vegas. Great vibes, great staff, excellent drinks. My partner and I don’t consider it a great Vegas stop unless we stop by at least once. In a city of fake and “experience cocktails at $40+ a glass”, this place is the real deal and doesn’t need to posture, the drinks do the talking.

Terrible decision walking into this place. One person in our group didn’t like the bar and said, “this bar’s ass,” and the owner completely lost it—screaming and throwing a fit in front of everyone probably because owner was unprofessionally plastered. You would think as a business perspective if people 21-27 are saying your bars ass you would ask why and how to improve it to fit younger generation and change it a bit to hit all audiences as a bar, whole vibe was completely off there tho owner doesn’t deserve any customers the way he acted trying to be on a power trip😂 On top of that, the service was awful. The bartenders looked irritated just taking an order, and the drinks were insanely overpriced for what you get. Nothing about the experience felt welcoming, professional, or worth the money. security dragged me out for absolutely no reason, even though I wasn’t the one who made the comment about the bar being ass. I was just trying to go back in to grab my wallet, and they still refused to let me get it. Meanwhile, the friend who actually made the comment was allowed to walk out on his own without any issue. I did nothing wrong, yet I was treated like a problem. Between the owner’s unhinged behavior, the rude staff, and the overpriced drinks, this place is an easy pass. There are way better bars in Vegas—don’t waste your time or money here. Also place has had a lot of health issues in the past with bug infestation and low grade from health department.

One of my favorite bars in Vegas, especially on Fremont. Recently, they also reduced the volume of the music significantly, which really helps with conversations in larger groups. Now the atmosphere matches the aesthetic and it's much easier to just talk with your friends. In a great place by a few other good bars and ride across the street from some incredible pizza.

Pretty good for drinks with a small group. Could use some soft table lights. And the jukebox might be broken because we could only get it to play one requested song.

Recommended by the bartender from Atomic Liquors, this place was great. The interior reminded us of the galley of a ship, or castle. It has a huge bar that runs the length of one side. Manned by knowledgeable bartenders who know how to mix a drink, this place stands out on Fremont. The bouncer was hilarious! A man who truly must love his job. That set a great vibe to the visit.
