- ghettoPlace is pretty ghetto
- heat insideIt was hot as hell inside No AC Door was open.
- parking floorparking floor really needs to be fixed
- reviewsA lot of the reviews here are by locals/friends who received a comp
- social issuesIf you live in this neighborhood, this is a GREAT place to day drink. Obviously, it has all of the same social issues that every other dive bar has, but if you can get past that at other dive bars, you can get past it here. The cheap beer and friendly staff are major selling points, with $2 drafts being a significant draw.
If you're looking for a lively, unpretentious spot with good music and karaoke, this place is likely your jam, especially if you appreciate a classic dive bar feel. Just be aware that some have experienced comfort issues like heat, so manage your expectations for a polished environment.

Great East Side Bar with Excellent Bartenders
My experience at this bar on the East side of Las Vegas was definitely one of the best. It's a great place with excellent bartenders, particularly Gladys, who was very helpful and always attentive. The music and vibes on Fridays and Saturdays with the DJ were also great.

Fun Spot with Good Pizza & Appetizers
I recently booked a trip to Las Vegas with friends, and it brought back memories of when I lived there years ago. It was always a fun spot. I stumbled upon it playing Poker at The Orleans during a Friday Night Lipps Tournament.
While I think the food is a little bit different, honestly, I NEVER remember eating. The Pizza and Appetizers look good enough to try out at least once. It was always a good spot for locals, Open 24/7 while still being clean with good service and friendly patrons all around the clock.
I did hear about some horror stories, but never saw any myself. We'll see you soon Chris!

Favorite East Side Bar with Great Service
My experience at this bar was fantastic! The service from my favorite bar keep on the East side was exceptional, earning a perfect 5/5. The atmosphere was also rated a 5/5, contributing to a great overall vibe.
While the food received a perfect 5/5, the only minor point for improvement is that the bar keep needs to fix his stutter. The establishment is Pro LGBT 🏳️🌈.

Great Service from Crystal!
I stopped in during the day shift for a drink and to play some pool. We had a hot blonde bartender named Crystal, who was holding down the fort. She did a fine job.
I wish I got her number.
