We haven't been here in awhile. Unfortunately, they are often closed during hours I stop by. However .... Absolutely love their Won ton soup one of the best I've eaten ! We miss some of the items on menu like the loco moco. Chicken Katsu ok needed more sauce. If in the area I recommend; service and food was good Thursday evening ! It was quiet; slow but steady. I wish they had better hours, split hours if unable to stay open longer hours (due to low traffic) and would open more days. Obviously late nights for weekends - Thursdays to Saturdays. Sundays to Wednesdays 8/9am to 1pm; reopen 5-9pm Thursday to Saturdays 7/8am to 1pm; reopen 5-1am ??(whatever time 30mins after club closes) Or for overflow morning busy hours when Rosie's has a line. read more

Stopped at the Island Grill before going to a concert at the Nugget. The kiosks were not functional- one broken and the other not able to print receipts. The cashier left the register to bring food out and bus tables, it took over an hour for us to get our food so we missed part of the concert. When someone finally paid attention to us - they asked if we wanted to come back after the concert!? The place was disorganized, not the cleanest and the staff were rude and unprofessional. Worst place I've tried to eat at in a long while. Never again!! If zero stars were possible that's what I'd give. I'm read more

Waited over 45 for chicken tenders. It wasn't until 11:07... 7 minutes after closing we got a text our order "arrived at the kitchen to be made." Which was 46 minutes after we ordered. It was not that busy. Further, we ordered pizza which they did not have and did not post a sign but allowed people to order on the kiosk anyways. It was so hectic inside, despite it not being busy. You can see the cooks, who were extremely slow in everything they did and had zero urgency. You had to then go stand in a line at the only cash register to get your refund for the pizza they didn't have. The assistant manager was extremely rude and again, very slow at everything she did. I had low expectations going into the restaurant but somehow they failed to meet even a minuscule amount of any expectation anyone would have going to get food at a restaurant. Others shared the same frustration and were asking for refunds. A hot mess all around. Wish I could tell you how the food was but we never got it. read more

The men are working really hard. I would say it's rough having only 4 guys run the grill, cash register and takeout during the peak dinner time so you can imagine the wait can build up when a bunch of people show up. The chow mein, Kailua pork and salad were all pretty good. The salad was surprisingly fresh and the Kailua pork was tender with the cabbage sitting in good flavor. Pizza looked ginormous! But we didn't get to try it. read more

Everything can improve. Terrible service, should be totally a quick bite. We came in during the time of a concert so ofc it's gonna be busy but it cleared out quickly. Took so long that everyone basically left without getting their full order. Been waiting for an 1 hour and a half, mind you, server said she would check after constantly asking and having to get up + she never did. Ambiance completely ruined so doesn't even matter. Manager didn't even help just pushed chairs in. read more

Island Grill - Multiple takeout orders left and behind lines of food undelivered - Asian Fusion Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

Watching this mess of a casino restaurant. Ordered over 45 minutes ago, still no food, the staff is doing absolutely nothing. It's super loud from the club next door. This used to be a great place for a quick bite to eat but no longer. On the bright side the pizzas are huge! Now up to an hour still no food. Asked for a refund can't figure out how to do that, so here we sit. What a horrible experience!!!! 1 hour 20 minutes finally food arrived, looks good but would never wait for this again! Oh it was just 2 burgers, nothing that should have been difficult. read more

We thought we'd stop in for a quick bite before a show. We ordered at the kiosk. Unfortunately, they didn't have enough staffing and got completely overwhelmed. One of the staff realized the mess they were in and had to yell out that they weren't accepting any other orders and he put a closed sign up at the entrance. People were cranky hangry and not happy. They were all asking for their money back. Looked like one server was going to walk out and quit. I felt for them. I also have to give it to them for dealing with a crisis and fixing it as best they could. Shame on them for not being prepared for the crowd that was expected knowing a concert was on the schedule. Our items, pad Thai with chicken and a poke bowl were substantial and a bit more spicy than I would like. We easily could have shared one order of pad Thai. If you're in a hurry and there is a show, this may not be your gig. Hopefully, this was a one time issue and will be corrected. read more

Enough variety on the menu that there is something for everyone. The service is always friendly and didn't take long for our food to arrive. Very casual setting. I've had their pizza and wings many times but thought I'd switch things up and ordered the bang bang shrimp. Really good and the spice level was perfect. Check it out when you're at the Nugget. read more

Had the won ton soup. The shrimp tasted old along with the chicken. The won ton tasted horrible. The broth was unappetizing! And it was way over priced for the quality of the food! The table looked like it hadn't been cleaned all day. read more

Very low quality food, nothing like in the pictures. Rice grains are in small pieces, same kind of rice we used to feed our dogs back in the day. We ordered fried rice, pad Thai and chow mein, they all had very little meat and almost no veggies. The only taste came from the different sauces they added to the rice or noodles. Not coming back. read more

The food was not bad, the pad Thai is advertised as spicy and there was no spice. Burgers fire. Can not add lettuce to a burger and even when you dine in for 20 dollar entrees you order off a tablet next to the host. Service was not good. This is a sit down restaurant not acting like a sit down restaurant so my boyfriend would ask questions like "do we get our own drinks?" He was met with a rude attitude and the server saying is this the future?? Yes you do. Order Togo you'll be good. read more

Worst food I've had in a long time. Asked for fried rice with chicken. They put pork on the ticket. Food has no taste. The rice was ground up into little pieces. Don't waste your $$ overpriced and not good. read more

Last night after a concert at the Nugget Casino, I found a hidden treasure. I was recommended by a customer sitting in the restaurant to try the Pad Thai Bowl. The kitchen is open so you can watch how your food is prepared. I did order the Pad Thai and it was Fab!!!! Served with a wonderful presentation of chicken, noodles, sprouts, onions and spice. You can also have shrimp as well. A very healthy portion in one bowl. I took home my leftovers... Room Chef Trevor Gerber should be awarded for this Pad Thai bowl. I will positively bring my family back for this dish. When you visit The Nugget Casino...head right over to the Island Grill and say hello to Chef Trevor making your beautiful food and my new favorite Pad Thai bowl. Come visit! Amazing!!!! Good food is so beautiful. Julie A. read more

Ol reliable when staying at the nugget. Haven't had the pizza yet but everything else is good.

Had very friendly service at the register! I had the drunken noodles and katsu. Katsu seemed burnt, still decent. Fries were in large portion size so yay. Lastly, the drunken noodles were my favorite, but they were covered in a lot of oil. If they had less oil it would've been much more enjoyable. Overall service is excellent and it's a decent place to eat if you're stuck at the nugget. read more

Friend and I shared a noodle bowl with chicken and shrimp fried rice. Next time I'll stick with the noodle dish. The friend rice was bland and not much pea pods like the pic showed. The pea pods were chopped up pretty small. If don't mind eating in the casino this place is a good deal. You are literally in the casino with just a small railing dividing this restaurant from the casino floor. read more

The service was okay, we had to bus our own table. They were really busy with a concert happening . I had the Loco Moco, which was not very flavorful. The cheese pizza was plain, sauce was not flavorful. The French fries were good, probably the best part of our meal. read more

Didn't even know about this walk up restaurant until our last day staying at the Nugget. It was 20 min before closing when we ordered a pizza and let me tell you..... One of the best New York pizzas I have ever had.. Crunchy crust, flavorful dough, zesty sauce with a stretchy cheese pull. A++ Staff was great, friendly and helpful. Will go next time for sure when we go back to Sparks. Restaurant should be called Hidden Island grill because you can walk right past it without even knowing.. read more

Burger and fries were good, but the soda from the fountain drinks tasted like the carbonation was off. The one thing I did not like was being forced to tip when using my card to pay as the option for no tip was greyed out, so you had to choose the tip option. I'm not against tipping. I just like to tip with cash. read more

Found this little nugget at the Nugget. Unique. Pizza, sandwich, and stir fry. Next time in I will try a sandwich. First time I was here I got the whole cheese pizza for $20. Damn. Straight up NYC pizza. Slices as big as your head. Baked to perfection. Comes to the table blazing hot. Yum. They get the crust so right. 2nd trip, pepperoni. Still great, think I prefer just the cheese. A bit too much excess grease. They also use an Italian seasoning/parm mix on the pepperoni crust. I suppose I like it, but definitely prefer just the cheese. Chow Mein was great. Flavorful, cooked in a wok right in front of your eyes if you care to watch. Mixed vegies, shrimp, tasty. Would have not expected this at the Nugget cafe/grill. Place is a fresh food treasure right under your nose. read more

I popped in for a late lunch after purchasing tickets for an event. I ordered the barbecue chicken bowel. I expected the chicken to be marinated and grilled, instead it was chunks of boiled chicken and overcooked very little veggies over lots of rice. at least the rice was good. If you look at other pictures for the same dish they are different. I think they use whatever meat they have from the soups or other dishes. read more

Love the food here. The Customer Service is also very good. The Bang Bang Shrimp is my fave. Casual and right in The Nugget for a Perfect location. Also close to walk to the outdoor Concert Venue there. read more

Terrible. I cannot begin to describe the disaster that was the island grill this weekend. There was a conference at the Nugget, so there was a huge crowd throughout the hotel. But it's a big place, I'd expect they could handle the crowd. BUT NO!!! They were totally inundated with orders and had no way of keeping up OR COMMUNICATING TO CUSTOMERS THE EXTENT OF THE WAIT FOR FOOD. Friday night, I ordered from the kiosk. I ordered potstickers and chicken low mein. I waited 1.5 hours with a crowd of other people to finally get my food. When I did, it was cold and tasteless. Unfortunately I made the mistake of going again. The crowd looked smaller so I tried to get a simple Cesar salad (no meat). I WAITED TWO HOURS!!! Two hours and finally I go up (with a group of others to complain, she turns to the fridge and grabs a salad out the fridge and hands it to me!!!! That's all that was required and it took two hours and being me raising a complaint to finally get a salad straight from the fridge. I would have demanded a refund but was already late for my next session and didn't have confidence in the ability of the staff to actually process the refund. I could not be more dissatisfied. read more

Used to be a really good restaurant they've gone downhill I don't know maybe New Management the pizza is just okay used to be really good and it used to fit the box now they sell you a 20-in pizza but it's only 15 in if you measure it and it is also an 18-in box used to be a 20-in box as well they've shrunk The box and the pizza their menu States 20-in? I have also tried their pad Thai and fried rice it's okay used to be better again it is edible and I believe their prices have gone up. But my biggest complaint is selling me a 20-in pizza which only measures approximately 15 in and it comes out on an 18 inch box??? Maybe they should change their menu to state 15-in pizza? read more

Foods good but over 11/2 hr wait! Way too long. They should have more help when they know there is going to be a bigger crowd. There wasn't much people when we 1st ordered. We ordered 2 fries, 1 slice of pizza and a rice bowl. read more

If your staying at the nugget and are looking for a quick bite to eat make sure you stop and visit sometimes there is a line during dinner time but before that there's never really a line but once you order they get you your food pretty fast. The hot dogs have a great flavor and the chili and the cheese just made it taste even better. The pizza panini was good just wish there was more pepperoni and less meatball. The shrimp was good and crunchy the kids loved it. Also the burger here is tasty and it's only 6 bucks. The fries were so fresh and went perfectly with all the food. Stop here while at your stay at the nugget for a quick and affordable meal. read more

The island grill provided the quickest service I have ever gotten by far. We ordered for 8 people,paid and once we went to sit down at a table our food already started coming out to us! Overall the food was good service was quick, I'd definitely be coming back here for a quick meal with the kids when we visit The Nugget Casino. I would recommend giving this place a try they have a nice variety of foods on their menu and the prices are good. read more

Good variety of Asian and American cuisine. Amazing Mac and cheese and fried rice. We were afraid that they would only do well on one of the cuisines, but they were both excellent. Definitely stop by if your staying at the Nugget. read more

Burgers were good, pizza was good - the mac and cheese not so good. The line to order was long but moved at a decent pace and receiving the food was not too long of a wait either - its a good place with something for everyone. read more

I seriously thought I would be getting something close to a chicken teriyaki bowl, guess I was very wrong. Order the BBQ hoisin chicken, took 3 bite and gave up. There was nothing BBQ about the bowl. Seems like it was boil chicken breast( very dry) then they pull the chickens breast apart put it on top of the rice, drizzle some hoisin sauce on top of it with sauteed veggies. Very bland, had to add alot of soy sauce and hot sauce. It's something very simple you can do at home by going to Costco getting there $4.99 juicy rotisserie chicken(not dry) pull it apart, slap it on top of some white rice and sautéed veggies. $12 for a dry chicken bowl, NOT WORTH IT AT ALL! and would NOT RECOMMEND! read more
