I was extremely dissatisfied with my evening there tonight. The older blonde woman working the door and taking the money was rude and short. Then, I find out that it costs 10 per person, per hour, to play pool. So, the five of us would have to choke up 50 dollars to play on a single pool table. Then, I had to run to the car to get cash, and they charged me five dollars to get back as their was "no readmittance" which they failed to tell me when I left. It's been a little while since I felt a place was so hostile and cold. I would never choose to return.

Not the best music venue in town. For starters, the venue is small and even smaller when they have two large pool tables on the floor during concerts. Drink wise, the selection is minimal but the prices are reasonable so it's really a wash. Sound levels are usually good, but security is practically non existent which makes for a somewhat unpleasant experience if it's a too rowdy crowd. Also, the worst part is the no re-entry policy. Smoking is allowed, but since smokers cant re-enter and there's no designated smoke area, the place just fills up with second hand smoke. For the right band sometimes you have to suck it up and see them at a smaller venue which is why I've been to this venue a few times in the past, but I really hope they change a few of their policies to make it a more enjoyable experience for all attendees.

With the lack of small venues featuring Rock music in Las Vegas Backstage Bar & Billiards is a breath of fresh air. Tired of seeing your favorite indy act reduced to thirty minutes at a festival with fifty other artists for $199? Check out the line-up including a recent visit from The Appleseed Cast and an upcoming show from Cursive. Easy in and out, plenty of close parking and tons of local eateries like Carson Kitchen nearby plus excellent acoustics - can't really ask for more.

We got comedy tickets and we're looking forward to the show. Our ticket said to arrive at 7:30 for an 8 PM start time. When we arrived at 7:30 The facility was not ready for an 8 PM show. We were told to come back at 8:30 PM. We happily complied, and when we got back at 8:30 there was a long line. We happily waited and looked forward to the comedy. When we finally got in to the facility at approximately 850. There was absolutely zero seating. Seating is on a first come first serve basis and it is in short supply. At approximately 9pm they said the show would be starting soon. At 9:15 I was told the show was starting any minute. The people in the crowd were growing anxious. While waiting I ordered a water and a Coca-Cola. It cost $8. When I was done enjoying my $8 Coke and water we left. The show had yet to begin. And who knows if it ever did. In short the place has a cool vibe but obviously the staff is unorganized and they are not prepared for the size of crowd they had in. Too bad!

Went to see Black Marble on Wednesday night. Yelp said they are closed on Wednesday, but I believe that they just opened for a special event? not sure. It was a small lounge/bar. They had a bar inside so I could grab my drink and enjoyed my show. First time at this location, but a great experience. (Since it is also billiards, the smell of cigarettes could bother you if you are a non-smoker. I had a really hard time but I was fine after 30 min or so).

Exceptional service; exceptional owner and team; exceptional experience, that made my 92 year old…read moremother feel special....which is priceless in my book. Here is why I would recommend Cobblestone Cottage (from a male perspective who has never been to a tea house). (1) I called for Easter Sunday reservation 4 days prior to Easter. I imagined the place would be booked, yet instead of the host who answered the phone simply stating they were sold out, she said she would see what could be done to possibly get us in and have someone call me back. (2) To my surprise, the owner (Arsine) called me a day later and also stated they were full, yet she stated she wanted me to know she was going to keep trying to see if she could juggle reservations and get us in. (3) Yet again, the owner remembers to call me the following day and secures a reservation. I was shocked that she remembered and knew she was making every effort to create a memorable moment for my mom. (4) My mom unfortunately had accident requiring hospitalization and we had to cancel our reservation. The owner actually called back to ask how my mom was doing! Wow...that was amazing display of heartfelt care from a busy business owner. (5) The owner worked with us to find another day that we could arrive after my mom recovered. Upon arrival, we were literally greeted with open arms by the owner. Literally this woman was there to ensure all was well. Her service team was a delight and equally attentive. The other patrons were smiling and clearly also enjoying their experience. And most of all for me, my mom kept smiling in gratitude and admiration of a lovely afternoon. (6) And final note, the food and decadent sconces, soup, salad, sandwiches, and desserts were DELICIOUS. As it turns out, the owner is a chef. Arsine is a class act when it comes to hospitality. A visit to Cobblestone Cottage is like going to your favorite relatives house and being embraced and cared for like family.

Nothing felt like filler, just really well-made, thoughtful food across the board. What really stood out though was the atmosphere. The inside is beautifully designed, cozy but elegant, and you can tell a lot of care went into the layout and details. It made the whole experience feel special without being stuffy. On top of that, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. You can feel that they genuinely care about making sure you're having a good time. If you're even remotely considering doing their high tea, especially for a special occasion, I'd absolutely recommend it. We'll definitely be back.

From the moment we walked in, everything was fully set and event ready, with a thoughtful floor plan that made the space feel both beautiful and comfortable for mingling. What really sets Briana apart is that she's not just a decorator, she's a full event quarterback. She seamlessly coordinated with our baker, caterer, ramen bar, and bartender, keeping everyone aligned and on schedule so we didn't have to manage a single detail. Our theme was black/white/bows/ribbons/Miffy and she absolutely nailed it. Every centerpiece, place setting, and balloon backdrop was handcrafted and customized exactly as requested. The detail and creativity were next level. Briana is professional, organized, responsive, and genuinely cares about delivering a flawless experience. She made the entire process smooth and stress free, which allowed us to actually enjoy the celebration instead of running it. Our family and guests are still talking about how beautiful everything looked and how smoothly the night flowed. If you want an event space owner who treats your event like it matters book Magic Hour and Briana. Highly, highly recommend.
