Fire orange like the colors of the Phoenix, then a switch to neon blue hues of color all above me!…read moreHow appealing and seductive the lights are! Flare is an extremely unique experience and lure! The lights continually change making drinking oh so exclusive and fun! On my most recent visit, I lent my ear for someone that so badly needed just someone to listen too. This someone is my bff. I will always have her back, and vice versa. Where better than a bar to distract her. The lights of flare have always been something that distracts her. Wanting to stay away from the strip and closer to home this bar is a fantastic location for both of us. Flare is located in the Silverton Hotel in the middle of the casino. Free covered parking, no cover, minimal people, and not touristy; perfect place for us. We arrive at different times, with my friend still stuck in traffic I just sit with a beer waiting. After she arrives she orders a Crown and Coke. I give the bartender the card and ask him to start a tab. As we sit here the orange and red hues wash over us from above, bathing us in its color. As it switches to bluish green we notice the pink coloring. My bff is smiling now we are getting somewhere. The smile from my bff is perfection and it is so great to see her smile. The tears were checked at the elevator as I watched her approach Flare and her eyes were immediately engulfed in the changing lights from above my head as I sat at the bar. Getting up I hugged my bff and the bartender seemed particularly interested in my friends unsettled mood. The bartender even asked what was bothering her. This bartender was so attentive to our order ensuring that we were not bothered by anyone asking to buy us a drink or if we needed a shoulder to cry on. As we drank the compassionate side of the bartender was fantastic. He even bought us a round of Crown and Coke too. Aside from having a wonderful bartender, whom was alert and always on his toes for keeping our drinks coming and water cups filled. The bar is a great place to try your luck with blackjack. The machines on the counter are level enough with the most comfortable chairs that I have sat in. The chairs at the bar are white bar type stools that are very fancy. This bar has that old world feel to it. Having traveled to many places, my favorite were those small homely places that are so ordinary that you have to stumble upon it to know it's greatness. When I discovered Flare my husband was gambling and I wanted a drink. The color changing of the lights beckoned to me. Answering the call, I discovered my cozy new place. My bff fell in love with the concept they used in designing the bar. As I listen to my bff the lights above keep changing. My eyes are constantly being drawn to those tempting lights. After a while the Crown and Coke got old, plus we wanted to walk out of the bar after drinking; and not be carried. Switching it up we asked our bartender what he would drink after so much Crown and Coke. His suggestion was beer. They offer a special happy hour price for $4.00 a bottle for Miller Lite. That's what we had, everyone likes happy hour prices. With work tomorrow and my bff mood changed we are going to find some food. They do not sell food here so it's off to find something delicious to absorb all the alcohol we partook of. In our merriment the service and atmosphere of Flare was exactly what we needed to reset ourselves. Come and see what the lights of Flare will do to you. The experience was magical and the bartender was fantastic. Thanks to making our troubles wash away and be replaced with hues of new color to enchant our week!

BLUE CHEESE STUFFED OLIVE Martini!…read more It's an appetizer and drink in one! Dirty martini? Yes please. Cosmo? Not the casino but a ruby red refresher. They also have bottled beers, liquors and can create other goody of libations. It is located in a cozy corner in Green Valley Ranch casino, across from Pizza Rock. Bar tops and soft seating areas beckon one to relax to some 80s to 2015's tunes, talk to smart bartenders (ie. Drew, Skyler, to name a few) and to keep an eye on sports and keno on their TV's. A pleasant respite or continuation of ones gambling and drinking pleasures.

I just discovered it recently and I love going with my friends every other Friday to dance with…read moreLatin Breeze because the atmosphere is great. It's a band that sounds very good, has excellent musicians, the horn section is exceptional, and the singers are outstanding. However, I would suggest that they add more songs because there comes a point when we get bored dancing to the same music. And as for the DJ who plays music when the band is on break, the only word I have to describe him is: HORRIBLE. He is very repetitive and does not accept suggestions from customers. I can understand that he wants to play music from all Latin American countries, but salsa is much more international and EVERYONE dances to it, whereas the "local" music he plays, like "caballito", is very boring.

I've been in here a few times but only for live bands. It seems in order to sit @ a table you have…read moreto have spend a minimum of $25 in drinks. My friend's got a table this past Saturday & we're told that it's $25 minimum per person which I think is ridiculous. What if some of your people in your party don't drink alcohol? Spending $25 in non-alcoholic drinks is crazy. I think it should be @ least a $25 minimum per table. I decided to get a bucket of seltzers (5 total) & was able to mix & match with some High Noons & White Claws and the waitress said they were both the same price per can. I would have thought that the High Noons would have cost more since they're vodka base. I went with a bucket because one of my friend's said the cocktail waiters wasn't very attentive. I saw her come to our table once. The place wasn't completely full. The one thing that I didn't like was the bartender opened all my seltzers so when the I r started to melt they were trying to tip over which would of resulted in them spilling and ice water filling up into the cans....dumb Staff has always been nice when I've been in here. Two weekends ago I sat @ the star during Zowie Bowie. Female bartender was attentive. Place has always been clean. It's non-smoking. There is a small dance floor if you want to get your groove on. I like this little show room. I've never seen a cover charge to get inside which is always nice. Bathrooms are right outside. There is a wheel chair accessible ramp to get in & out.

There are some pool tables, a golf game machine, darts, jukebox, and occasionally karaoke, which I have yet to see. Also free popcorn! (but no food other than a snack machine). People are friendly enough and won't pester you if you want to sit off by your lonesome. I haven't seen it on the weekends, however.

We stopped in here because...why not? A place we hadn't been yet. There was absolutely nothing…read morespecial about this old place whatsoever....or so we thought. The day shift bartender- i think her name was Michelle, was a rockstar. She was inviting, fun to be around and truly defined the word hospitable. She's probably the only good thing they have going on there. Cant comment on the food, because they don't have any The very few people that were in there seem to like her as well, and they left shortly before her shift ended. All this flipped when a guy named Dan walked in. Dan, who "runs" this joint evidently recognized me because I wrote a negative review 5 years prior for another bar he worked at. Dan confronted me on this then kicked my wife and i out because of it. Hey thats fine... Your place you don't have to have anyone you don't like there.... Although we thought it was weird and petty, we went somewhere else. Dan, similar to last time, decides to send some interesting messages to me on Yelp. Again fine, weird but fine. I'm not a regular there. I don't live by that bar, so it's not like i'm going to be overly concerned about being asked to leave a place with nothing going on for it. Seems the common trend with bars he "runs" is that they are Sad & completely empty. Maybe that's why the couple patrons they had earlier left before he got there. So it's because of this that they absolutely earn this one star review just like he earned the last one I wrote. Same tough guy attitude, same poor handling of situations. No credibility or professionalism. Stay on the bottom rung bud.

Also, there's a pool table in the middle and other games to the side. It's good to note that it's first come, first serve open seating. We found a few seats open at a high top and noticed others were ordering from the bar, so I got in line to order. They made the drinks and brought them out to our table with a little puzzle book. If you complete the puzzles, you can turn it in and can win a prize. The peppermint White Russian was really good and came in a cute glass. The punch bowl drink, something like a snowfall blitz, didn't taste great until we asked the bartender to add sprite/soda water. It was heavy on the elderflower. We got to keep the fishbowl glass and that was actually fun to have the rest of the trip.

Sign said it was open at 5pm, but apparently a staffing issue had them running behind. They actually opened around 545 pm which was fine. They were promoting some cider fest so a lot of cider drinks and cocktail on a specialty menu. We ordered a Modello to start and that was cold and delicious. Second round was a Mango cider which was crisp and delicious as well. A lot of flavor packed into that drink for certain. The atmosphere at shady grove lounge is pretty cool. Neat old tree above you and the airstream with bowling is cool also. It filled up pretty fast which is good for business. We thought we saw some $3 beer specials somewhere on a billboard or something, but we didn't get that anywhere in the actual bar. Overall Shady Grove Lounge is pretty cool and a nice place to hang out for a few.
