The crispy juicy chicken Katsu is served on a platter big enough for two. The California roads were not skimpy and generously made fresh and delicious. Entertainment was excellent and we will be back.

If you come here, you're paying for the entertainment and not the food. My friend invited us to…read morewatch the jazz band perform anime / game songs with a hint of cartoons and 90s mixed in. The live music was amazing. It's too bad this band seems to only perform once or twice a year. Highly recommend them! As for the food - everyone is asked to buy at least $25 worth of food, and I would've paid that just to watch the band so it was a bonus. The food itself though is nothing to rave about. I got a $15 small piece of miso black code hand roll with some vinegar sugar rice wrapped in soy paper. I could've made it at home. The Japanese Mille crepe was decent, and I think not bad for the price. I wish they sold non alcoholic fun drinks (mocktails). I would've spent it on that and a dessert. Outside of the food being average and overpriced, the service was excellent! Our server was so diligent and always refilled our waters whenever it went down. I'd come back if any shows interested me but wouldn't go just for food.

OMG cutest place ever! I tried this place for the first time this past weekend and loved it!!…read more I ordered the "A Break in the Clouds" cocktail while my bf ordered the Milk Stout. When I saw that the cocktail had gin I was a bit worried but our server assured me that I won't taste it. He didn't lie, I absolutely love it! It was perfectly fruity but a bit sour in all the right ways!! I thoroughly enjoy the outdoor patio and interior decor, it really set the mood/tone for my experience. Will definitely be back to try more cocktails!

I don't have a ton of good things to say about this venue, but I also don't have a ton of bad…read morethings to say about it. Located right on Fremont St, Backstage Bar & Billiards is a venue I went to a couple of times when I lived in Las Vegas. I've seen bands like Letter Kills and Maylene and the Sons of Disaster as well as the likes of Cryptopsy and Abysmal Dawn. The last show I went to at the venue was said Maylene and the Sons of Disaster show in what I believe was May of 2024 (I'm catching up on venue reviews). The venue itself is a decent enough size and mostly consists of standing room only, though a few chairs for what I assume is ADA are usually lined up against the wall. The sound here was always solid enough and I don't have any complaints over that and the merch area was tucked away enough in the back that it didn't get in the way of the show itself. Overall, Backstage Bar & Billiards is a solid little venue that consistently has pretty decent shows. The staff here always did what they needed to do, and my only real complaint is that I wasn't able to score Green Day tickets here when they did that special show, but either way, it's a solid enough venue.

When I lived in Vegas (I moved away about a year and a half ago) the House of Blues was probably…read morethe most frequented venue. I feel like I was here almost once a month for 4 years and it's a venue that I always enjoyed. The merch here was always on the main casino floor and very spacious, while downstairs/the venue itself was pretty darn massive. The main floor was large, the bar area had a ton of room as well as tables, and upstairs had bleacher style seating that sucked when I first started going, but got updated and were super nice by the time I left. I managed to see bands such as Bayside, I Am The Avalanche, Killswitch Engage, Ville Valo, Static-X, Cannibal Corpse, and many many more acts over the years and I wanted to make sure I left this place the positive review I think it deserves. Overall, The House of Blues is a top notch venue and one of the best for alternative music in Las Vegas. Would it be better if it wasn't locatd in the middle of the massive Mandalay Bay Casino? Probably, but the place has great sound, a ton of space, and even some good food to go with it. I'll definitely be back in the future!

We've been to Fat Cat twice now, and it is such a fun little bar!!…read more We have come here both times to see The Midnight Cabaret, a local band that does a fun mix of covers and original music. Fat Cat has a great stage, and they have great sound for bands! Let's talk about their cocktails! Are they spendy? Sure...but you're also downtown, so really, the prices are pretty in line with the standard. $16 for a really well crafted cocktail isn't bad...and I haven't had a cocktail here that I didn't like! Just be cautious...they go down quick! We've always had top notch service here, the bartenders are friendly, fun, and knowledgeable about drinks! If you're looking for a fun night out where you might catch some live music, give Fat Cat a try!

Drinks 5/5 Service 2/5…read moreAmbiance 5/5 What a cool little spot this is. The acoustics were great, the decor amazing, and the drinks were excellent. My one complaint, and the complaint of everyone was it took 30 minutes to get a drink. One bartender and one server for a place that was packed is clearly not enough. The server and bartender were doing their best but there should have been at least two bartenders for this event. We will be back.

On our Vegas trip this weekend, we were looking for karaoke on the strip so we didn't have to worry…read moreabout driving or Uber.. thankfully we saw this place driving to our hotel! It has a very relaxed vibe.. order at the bar, find a seat, sing along! I'm used to karaoke bars that have private rooms, but it's an experience seeing people sing in front of the crowd! My husband and I shared a huge fishbowl cocktail that was deliciously dangerous, but the unexpected star of the show were their fries! I've never seen a potato cut like that and it's something I've never seen - imagine a potato wedge spiral that's not too thick, perfectly crunchy. We got the Parmesan truffle one and the sauce was so good! Cheese curds were also good! Some notes I picked up on.. it looks like you can reserve tables, bathrooms are the public restrooms outside, and it turns into 21 and older after 10 pm. On the Saturday night that we went, they had regular karaoke on stage with the song's music, then they switched over to karaoke with a live band which was pretty cool! We'll definitely be back.. still thinking about those fries!

There were these cool tables that was like a drum sitting on saxophones idk how to describe it but look at my pictures. When we go back I really want to get myself on stage!

The chicken was juicy and flavorful and it was served on a bed of fried onions that actually went perfectly together. I also got a side of the Jalapeño Cornbread with bourbon butter on the side.
