Triple dipper
Alan H.

We live close in Salt Lake City, so we are in Vegas a number of times a year. We frequent the bar across the street but on this particular day that bar was closed for a private event, so for shits we decided to check out The Bonfire and we are so glad we did!! We love dive bars, sports bars and video poker so this place was right up our alley! We love the online player's club so you don't need to bring a card every time and can just log in for points! And our bartender - Danielle - what an awesome, fun person and made our visits so much fun! We are now "besties" and can't wait to come back for the VP, and fun vibes and food! OMG, the food! We ordered their triple dipper with fresh made chips and the birria tacos... Absolutely amazing. So good that we came back the next day and got the same thing! If you are in the area and are looking for a fun, friendly sports bar with cool vibes, great bartenders and tasty food, this is your spot! The regulars were nice and the beer and shots are ice cold. What are you waiting for??

The Bonfire has some of the best staff. Attentive and fun! They have great food and great times. Come check them out when they have an open mic or one of there numerous events, like live bands. DESTINY was lovely and was very professional during our time at the establishment. Big butt too haha!!

Carne Asada tacos.

Bonfire is a hidden gem worth every bite From the outside, you'd never guess what's waiting inside Bonfire, but once you step in...wow! We started with the Chips & Dip Trio, and let me just say: best chips and dips I've ever had, and I've eaten at some pretty high-end places, too. The chips were hot, crispy, and clearly just fried, none of that stale, bagged nonsense. The cheddar cheese dip was ooey, gooey perfection, the guacamole was bright, chunky, and fresh with big pieces of avocado, and the salsa hit that perfect balance of spice and tang without being overpowering. Then came the tacos, Birria and Carne Asada. The birria meat was tender and rich, the shell lightly crisped and not greasy at all. The carne asada tacos were loaded and seasoned just right. Jeff ordered the Smoke Show cocktail, and it lived up to the name, the cloud of smoke when he lifted the lid was impressive. You could smell the smoke but didn't taste it, just a smooth, well-balanced drink. The place itself? Spotless. You can tell they care about cleanliness, the menus were actually clean (I love when a restaurant gets it). The vibe is hole in the wall, relaxed, and the staff was genuinely friendly and on top of everything. Don't let the humble exterior fool you...Bonfire is the real deal. Exceptional food, great service, and attention to every detail. Absolute must-try.

Came for battle of the bands on Wednesday night and we enjoyed the vibe of the place. We started the night off with a midori sour and Modelo, took a seat, then waited for the bands to come on. The midori and Modelo were great. The waitress came by and asked if we wanted to order anything more and my husband ordered a budweiser and I asked for water. I saw other customers with cups of tap water and assumed this was what I was ordering. The waitress took our card, charged it, then brought back two water bottles. I let her know that I wanted cups of water like the customers at the table in front of us had and she stated that "after the bands come on we don't give out water in cups." What does that even mean and what would the reason for this be?? I found this very odd and wished she would have either brought the bottles of water before taking our card or let us know it would be water bottles. We ended up paying $3 per bottle of water that we will probably just end up taking home. It's not a huge deal obviously, but it's pretty annoying since I would have just went and got my water in the car if I knew we would be charged for water bottles instead of just being given tap like most bars do. We were going to order food as well but decided against it after this occurrence.

The Bonfire Menu

Early dinner - we beat the Sat night crowd lol! Two biker dudes opened this bar in May, just a few months ago and the reviews are SPOT ON! Rosie the bar manager was very cool - let us know this 24 hour restaurant has events 7 days a week and usually starts to get busy after 8:00 pm. Reservations accepted but not necessary. Plenty of free parking! Rosie mentions Thursday & Sunday nights sound like the best times to visit. Thursday nights with their house band Velvet Moon. Sunday's are great for Brown's games and Line Dancing. See the website for other events throughout the week. We ordered the Steak Sandwich and The Bonfire Burger. Both were delicious but let me tell you about that Steak Sandwich. Came toasted on sourdough bread but what they don't mention on the menu is there is some sort of MAGICAL BONFIRE SECRET SAUCE on it that will have you thinking whaaaaat is THIS?! 100% recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a place to have dinner before attending the Brad Garret Comedy Club, Brown's fans, bikers, first dates, and musical professionals looking for a place to chill after hours. Looking forward to coming back again someday!

Green Tea shots

Dee is a baddie and a sweetheart! She makes a bomb drink and keeps the vibes right. Great service, great energy, and she really knows how to take care of her guests. If you come through, make sure Dee is your bartender!

Drinks, discounted on happy hour!

Love this happy hour + live music! What a fun local hangout. Great happy hour specials, awesome service, cool vibe with live music (starting around 8pm) and no cover! Even regular (non-happy hour) pricing is very reasonable for great quality food & drinks. Newly renovated, spacious, great pool tables, nice clean bathrooms. Appears to have plenty of free parking in their lot, at least if you arrive early (like before 7pm on a Saturday). Perfect spot for a casual after-work hangout, catch a game, meet up with friends... Will be back for sure!

Service was not so good... the guy I order my tacos from had a bad attitude but if you about food…read moreand not service.. tacos are on point and I just tried the taco del pastor...

Hands down one of my favorite and most affordable taco spots!…read more It's located next to a busy plaza so parking can be quite difficult They're open daily 10am-2pm. Definitely recommend going when they first open because otherwise it doesn't matter the time or day of the week, the lines are extremely long! Love how spacious the restaurant and how organized it is! Once inside the restaurant, there are several lines and you just line up according to which meat and item you want. The longest lines are definitely the asada and adobada (pork)! Once you reach the front of the line, you just tell the staff which and how many of the item you want, as well as any customizations to it. After you get your order, you just head to the cashier line and paying is so easy and convenient! Pricing is reasonable. - Tacos, tostadas, taco aztecas - $4.12 - Sopes, quesadillas, vampiras, & mulas - $7.54. - fries with meat - $22.18+ - soft drinks - $3.31 Arrived at 11am on Sunday and it was already super crowded. Stood in the asada line for at least half an hour but the wait was so worth it! Got 3 Asada Tacos and the tortilla was so soft, hot, and fresh. It was stuffed with plenty of tender beef! The beef was packed with flavor and marinated so well! The pico de gallo was so delicious, as well as the salsa and guac. The Horchata was ok and nothing special since it wasn't made from scratch like the phenomenal tacos! Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and my food. Definitely would recommend and return!

When they called my name, I went to the counter and notice that they got my order wrong...they gave me a pollo asado taco, instead of a pollo asado burrito with cheese. I swear I had told the lady that took my order that I wanted a pollo asado burrito, but perhaps I was wrong, or perhaps she was mistaken with what I ordered. Either way, I am not one to make a fuss, as restaurant workers already work hard (especially the workers at this place), so their ears didn't need a brat like me to give them an earful about getting my order wrong during peak lunch hours. Anyways, I pointed out the mistake, and mentioned if I can order a pollo asado burrito. An older gentleman (who appeared to be the owner/manager/someone important) working behind the counter said don't worry about it...he'll make the burrito and call my name when it's ready. I thanked them profusely, went back to my seat and didn't even finish my al pastor taco, because they had called my name in less than a minute. WOW! That's customer service right there! I wouldn't even put The Taco Stand on the top of my list of best mexican food in Vegas, even though their food is pretty damn good, but with customer service like this, they've made the jump on my list, and I'll be returning to eat there more often!

Whatever, I guess they just couldn't wait and had zero patience. Luckily, I was in my top notch behavior or else, it could've been ugly. Anyway, we tried a couple of tacos we never tried and followed the lead of the real Mex ppl. We opted for the tripa, lengua, and buche tacos. (I tried but it's not for me) Hoever, husband is much braver than me. He lived all of them. I was good with my carne asada tacos and the Al Pastor burrito. Their salsa is the bomb! It was smoky and well seasoned. The horchata drink was also delicious and comforting after a couple of spicy bites. There was a live band as well it they got rained on(literally) they left right away . It was quick and very satisfying. The amount of food was a lot and they make sure ppl are happy with the portions. I recommend this place because it is non pretentious and oh so realistic to the culture. Don't miss this one in Las Vegas on Las Vegas blvd close to Circus Circus and Ross. You can't miss it. I forgot to take pictures because we just went for it and devoured everything in a few minutes. Seats are very limited though but ppl seem to eat very very fast. Haha It's a good place to bring your family and even the children were raving about it. Again, you're welcome! Viva Las Vegas!
