We went to The Front Yard to use the Facebook Messenger BOGO Burger/Sandwich offer (there are other offers like Free Pork Belly Bites or Free Mega Cocktail). You have to sit at the bar to use this dine-in offer. We ordered: - Front Yard Burger (bacon, provolone, chipotle aioli) with onion rings (+$2 for onion rings) - Front Yard Smoke Sandwich with pulled pork with garlic fries Surprisingly, the food was delicious! The Burger was flavorful with the thick-cut bacon and provolone, and the pulled pork sandwich was wonderfully smoky with a beautiful balanced coleslaw and pickled onion. The garlic fries were subtly garlicky and freshly fried in butter. Really happy to have come for the BOGO, and will eat here if we are ever in Ellis Island to gamble! read more

The one star for this place was our server, Sil. He was on top of things and very nice. Everything else: 1. We've been to the Front Yard before, and have had a rather poor experience, both with service and food quality. We decided to give the place a 2nd (3rd?) chance. 2. The main attraction for this brunch was the "build your own" Mother's Day bouqet bar that was advertised on the website. I will give them this: it did say "while supplies last", but we arrived less than two hours (between 12:45 and 12:50 for an 11am-3pm timeframe) after the brunch started and the flowers were already gone. 3. When my sausage platter came out it was cold. Our server took it back and kitchen just re-fired it, making it hot, but way overcooked. 4. My daughter's chicken breast was also WAY overcooked (pic below). 5. My wife's burger was like shoe leather. Mimosas were plentiful and regularly refilled. Due solely to Sil being on top of things. I spoke with the manager (Randy?) about our experience. Kindly, he sent over two desserts, but nothing was taken off the bill, making this EXTREMEMLY sub-par food experience well over $200. We will not be back. read more

Today's service: 2/3 stars / 5 3rd time I've been: 4 stars / 5 2nd time: 4 stars /5 1st time I came in: 5 stars / 5 Hey yall! I came here due to Facebook promotion. I tried the pork belly bites & the churro dessert, then I came back to try the buy one get one free burger, and now I'm back to get the yard burger. Let me tell you how things have went. The first 3x was good. So so. On the 3rd time. Wasn't too happy with the burgers or fries. The fries suck. I wasn't able to choose if I wanted protein style burgers which sucked, normally I ask in advance for protein style. They didn't hold space but Veronica was nice. I did call in the next day and spoke to Randy the manager, who offered me a "free entree" but wasn't specific about what entree so when I arrived I asked for the entree: steak, and truffle fries, and I just got embarrassed cus Randy came out and said no, I meant you can re order the burger or something similar and I said you didn't say that, don't embarrass me in front of people, he said yeah yeah played it off and the server at the bar was kinda pushy! Vibes are off! He did shake my hand and stared in my face which I think is a lil much. It's whatever, I just want my food. I did ask them to sub the reg fries for the truffle fries cus those regular fries are nasty. Worst than fast food joints. Anyways... I do like the establishment but the service is so so. It's fair, it's a hit or miss. I do still have this free cocktail thing I can get here but haven't gotten it yet. AFTER I ate my $20 free burger on the house: there was ONE waiter who was NICE, and that made things soooooo much better! Didn't get his name but he served me my water and lemons and gave me my to go box and let me say this: TRUFFLE FRIES taste so much better!!!!!! This burger is 10/10 can't complain! Way better than the $15 burger plate they gave me!! Wow!!! Still 3/5 experience! The vibes were a lil off. read more

We came here to watch football games on Sunday on the big screen. We made a reservation for 6 and were seated on time and without problem. The server stopped by often, was friendly and made great recommendations of what to order. As a party, we had the Belgium blueberry waffles (the best!), the meat charcuterie board (fresh and delish), and banh mi sandwich (tasty). Adult beverages were really good, as was the blueberry lemonade. Because it is Vegas, we loved the fact that there was a blackjack table around the corner, where you could gamble during the game. Clean restaurant, clean restrooms - great place to watch the game! read more

I have been here a few times now, both for brunch and dinner and have always enjoyed the ambience, and my meal. At first, I was like Ellis Island? But the front yard is truly a hidden gem in there.

Just went for emo, brunch. The food was really good and while our server was nice, we felt abandoned for a good 20 minutes. We were just sitting there, finished eating waiting for her to ask if we need boxes and she walked by and looked at us twice and never said anything. When I finally got her attention, she was bringing a refill from my daughter's drink, which she brought to us after her drink was empty for a long time and she never offered a refill until we're literally asking for boxes. As far as food goes, we had the mac and cheese chicken and waffles and aburger with truffle fries. Everything was super tasty.The mac and cheese was super creamy and the bacon made it even better. The chicken from my chicken and waffle was amazing! Whatever breading they use is perfect and my daughter really enjoyed her burger. We did ask for the truffle fries with the burger and it came out with regular fries, so they had to take it back and fix that. This would have been a 5 star review since everything started off great, but attention from the server was lacking at the end. Just something to keep note of read more

This sports restaurant is located inside/outside (covered) the Elias Island Casino. We started off at the bar with some Happy Hour appetizers and drinks. The bartenders were very nice and helpful. The video poker machines were good to us while we waited but needed some wiping down. We order the pretzel and it was hot and definitely a must have with the cheese. We then moved onto the table seating to have dinner. We enjoyed watching our Thursday football game and splitting some food. The chicken wings were very good and we enjoyed the flatbread pepperoni pizza. But the show stopper was the warm cookie and ice cream. Give the night a try at this place. They also built a nice bar with a view on the roof but we were so full we just checked out but didn't stay. Next time for sure. read more

The Front Yard is located inside Ellis Island Casino. I haven't been here for a while and they have made a lot of renovations since I've last been here. We came here on a weekday in the middle of the day so there were only a few other patrons eating lunch. But I can see this place getting busy on football Sunday or any other sporting event. They carry local beers, which we like, we like to support local. We ordered a Caesar salad to split, I ordered the chicken nachos and he ordered a cheeseburger with fries. The Caesar salad was good and the croutons were homemade and tasty! The chicken nachos were OK, they were good but they were definitely Americanized and not authentic. He did say he enjoyed his cheeseburger. I would come back here on a game day to check out the ambience! read more

The Front Yard is one of my favorite local spots! The food is amazing, and the ambience is cozy and welcoming--perfect for watching sports or just hanging out. The staff is super friendly and always make you feel at home. My go-to is the Cajun Chicken Sandwich with their chipotle aioli sauce--so good! I also love the pork belly bites, fried pickles, and zucchini fries. They have lots of other food options too. Their beers are amazing--I used to fill up a growler and take it home. And their holiday eggnog is one of the best I've had. This place is a local favorite--great food, drinks, and vibes. Definitely worth checking out! read more

Overhyped The atmosphere is great tho! So come for that. We came for Sunday Yacht party brunch. DJ was great! Bartenders are great! Servers great! Food for the price .... Woof. BTW no great brunch specials ..... I got Avocado toast ... it was ok. $18 no egg no sides. I added bacon. Bacon is listed as thick cut. It appeared regular to me. My dude got steak and eggs. He was grossing me out by constantly spitting out gristle He said the steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned great. Just too much gristle read more

The sports bar concept is good at this place, with all the TV's and VGK games playing. But the chili bowl was the size of a cup, but it was so spicy, that it was okay. The beer selection is okay. The food is otherwise good, with variety. And the service was good, so I guess I shouldn't complain. But something still feels off. read more

Awesome! This is a brilliant hidden gem off the strip at the Ellis Island casino. Apparently this casino's been around since 1968 and they've done some refurbishment. The front yard is a great indoor spot, but the roof is retractable for nice days. They had a cool Oscar's watch party on Sunday which was very fun and some good food. There is also a rooftop deck which is amazing. Give it a try for something different in Vegas! read more

Had a fun time hanging out here to watch the FIFA Club World Cup game. Decently priced and fresh food and drinks with good service! There's a traditional bar top area to sit at as well as a restaurant style seating area with tables. There are also plenty of TV screens around playing various types of sports. There are several beer, cocktail, mocktail, wine, and food options. The draft beers are all brewed locally by Ellis Island! At the time of my visit in July 2025 it was only $6.50/pint! The seating area is partially open to the outside from the roof, so the weather outside definitely affects the inside. It was 100+ degrees outside, but the inside wasn't too bad. It's still climate controlled and was fairly comfortable, especially with all the fans going. You can tell there was still AC but it was warmer than the inside casino area. Service was great. We ordered several rounds of food and drinks throughout the game and our server came around to see if we needed anything a few times, and she was easy to flag down at other times too. The orders came out pretty quickly. My favorite was the double IPA. Not too bitter and had a good flavor. The onion rings were hot and crispy. My friend got the Cajun chicken sandwich (forgot to snap a picture) but it was quite large and fresh looking and came with good sized Caesar salad. This place is definitely a hidden gem! read more

What can I say about this place!? I have gone to Ellis Island for many years and saw them build on this amazing front bar area. I never went there because I knew it was a little more expensive than the cheap prices inside. I have to say, I have never seen a happier server in all my life that is so proud of what they do and really excited about people loving this place! Look at our bartenders face. True love! We were treated with kindness, consideration, and had the best time! You can also order all kinds of great food out there and it is amazing for large groups! If you're having a hard time finding areas for your large group to go? Consider this place. Most places get sold out of your head. This place is wonderful! I am a faithful follower of Ellis Island, and now I am a faithful follower of the front yard! read more

Been going to Ellis Island for years but never made it here. Decided to catch a game here and take advantage of the unlimited food deal and glad I did. The ambiance was nice, chairs spaced apart and two levels w a bar on each level. Plenty of tvs and servers and the best part is beig able to hear your game. The buffet was delivered to you so you didn't have to deal with missing your game. The food was great and my server Veronica was friendly, personable and so attentive to all her tables. I will definitely be back. read more

As a Vegas local, I thoroughly enjoy this bar/restaurant. I'm willing to travel from southern Highlands just to watch the games here, whether it's hockey, baseball, or football. I love bringing friends and family who are visiting from out of town. My only complaint is that there aren't any vegan options besides the Beyond Patty for the burgers. Vegans like to drink and eat too!! So it would be great to see more options, including gluten-free options. read more

Love the front yard, it gives you a spacious front yard vibe, with natural sunlight and plenty of seating and a TV's throughout the space. There is also a long bar against the back wall that can sit quite a few. The service was good, it seems like they have enough waiters to cover such a large floor. I got the yard house burger and it was cooked perfect. I asked for a medium burger and it delicious. The drinks and everything came up quickly so we're weren't over waiting even with some of the larger parties. A must check out! read more

Great ambiance. Nice DJ music (not too loud) and Winter Olympic broadcast on big screens. food was ok. The brisket eggs benedict could do without the pickled onions. It was too much and too sour. A few dices of pickled onions without the pickling juice would have been better. read more

My negative experience with management here made me come out of review hibernation. The dismissive and unsympathetic attitude we received from the manager given to us locals who dropped 3 bills in this place was unacceptable. The rules for AYCE and AYCD were unclear on the menu and the servers were also unsure. When asked for clarification from management we were met with, "that's not my problem," "it doesn't say it, but I'm telling you the rules now," and "you expected to eat for three hours?" A little professionalism and even fake empathy in this situation would have gone a long way instead of pointing the finger at the paying customer. Now, "it's not my problem" when I take this place off my list for options for Monday Night Football and tell all my other local buddies to go to one of another dozen places where the manager doesn't have to put the food down from stuffing his face to change one of the channels to the Knights game that is well into the 2nd period. If you want a better local experience for football, check out the new Sunset Station Sportsbook, Atomic Golf, any of the PKWY Taverns, and Able Baker Brewing. The food wasn't awful but you have to eat and drink a lot to get your money's worth in the allotted time. read more

2 of 2 reviews Quality/Quantity - Yes, a "me" day! My wife and daughter went to CES (I quit, I do not enjoy the event any more). Last year I spent it at the sports bar and had TOOOOOO much fun... This year, I will be good. Ellis Island Brewery has been on my list to visit for years... Out of all the restaurants here, this one's my favorite. BTW - The casino is going through a remodel. Today I got the following: Brisket sliders - Not bad, but not good. I prefer my brisket medium rare, and this was very well done, disguised in extra sauce... The flavor and quantity was okay. I probably will not order this again. And of course, a flight of beer to wash it all down: Little Foot Amber Ale - Of course, my current go-to beer. Black Hill Schwarzbier - Not usually a dark drinker, but this was not bad, not too harsh. Cold Hearted Women Love IPA - So did this cold hearted man, lol. Mas Fuego Rauchbier - BBQ aroma, complimented the sliders perfectly. In summary, come here for the beer. I might skip the food next time. Well, if I try other dishes, I will update. Brunch, happy hour, etc. menus also available. Atmosphere - Love the huge indoor/outdoor space, see pictures. Plenty of bar, table seating. TVs for entertainment, of course for sports. Gaming available, but not today. Well I am sure they have gaming if you sat at the bar. Love the modern restrooms and the outside sinks, see pictures. Events, Mega Mondays, Trivia Tuesdays, Wine Wednesdays, watch parties, games, live music, extended HH, etc.; see website. Just noticed on your website that you have two stories?... 350 capacity. Service - 5 stars, friendly and efficient. Price - $25 + generous tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2019. Next trip I will bring my buddies for your beer (and maybe food). read more

Blackened chicken sandwich and fries, house salad and jumbo onion rings were all super delicious. Service was excellent. The TV set up is second to none. This restaurant over performs itself except it didn't have any flatbread. In a Friday evening. No worries. read more

Bright airy space with big screen TVs is the major plus especially when the casino was undergoing renovations indoors. Service was a little stretched and while adequate, wasn't personable per se. They had the late night menu here from Village Cafe during renovations but otherwise the menu consists of sharable bar bites, sandwiches, and a few entrees along with the various brews from the casino. Food's fine but probably better just for a few pints and light nosh here. read more

The outside of the casino is going through construction, but when we got in, there were lots of signs pointing to The Front Yard. The place itself is very open with lots of windows and TVs playing the basketball and football games! We waited a bit before the hostess sat us down. She was so sweet and welcoming. Our server came shortly after to take our order, and she was also so kind. We came on Christmas Day and they made our visit feel so comfortable. My partner got the Caveman Skillet, and I got the Berry Berry Salad with Chicken. The skillet meat was super hearty with really flavorful brisket. The is a typical American breakfast, but the meat pairs really well with the egg and cheese. For my salad, I like how light it is. The chicken is a bit dry, but the salad was super refreshing and had a healthy amount of berries. This place honestly just had one of the best service, they are all so sweet, and I would come back just for them. read more

Had great service and the food was amazing.. great place to watch the game as well. The mega drink is huge

I think they r very short staffed for the amount of guests coming in. We came in during dinner hours n had to wait a bit for a table ( the dining room is not filled up btw) which is fine i get it. The staffs who r there r very helpful friendly and did best that they can. The food took around 25 mins to come which is quite a while for 2 same burgers orders so thats why ik they r very short staffed. But waiter were nice n keep checking n reassuring us once every while. The house made root beer was delicious, much better than the can they sell at the market. Highly Recommended! We ordered 2 front yard burgers ( $20 each ) that came w fries, the burgers r absolutely loaded thick with half pounds patties n crispy bacon, fries r crispy n well seasoned, came in a lot of em. Personally I'm not a big fan of how long the food took, but the quality n quantities n the service made up for it massively. Might comes back again since they have sm deals going on at the hotel restaurant rn! 8.5/10 read more

We went to meet wedding clients for happy hour to discuss scheduling their wedding. Our server was quiet but polite at first. We ordered our drinks which he brought quickly and we were pleasantly delighted. He gave rushed us to take our food order and went off to put it in. We began small talk about the small town we moved to speaking about the lack of job availability, so I opened my own business. I don't know if he overheard us or not, but shortly after he ran back over to us and stated," I run fast but not fast enough to run after you so I need a credit card from your group before I can put in your orders. He was supposed to have put our orders in over 10 minutes ago by then. I thought it was odd he did not ask me how I wanted my burger cooked. I figured he would make it like most industry standard medium rare. Already completely humiliated by is comment for my credit card. He brought our food and our burger was charred black and dry. I mentioned it to him, and he said I forgot to ask you and I was in a hurry, so I just hit medium well. I explained I was not happy and he acted like it was a problem. We already waited almost an hour from the time he took our drink order and to wait even longer and complain with our clients there is not professional. I am very unhappy with the experience which your place came highly recommended. When he brought us the check he said he took the burger off but we came there with a buy one get one meal free coupon, so nothing was taken off in reality. I didn't ask for a discount I wanted an apology for what he said. Humiliating a guest is irresponsible and the worst customer service one can receive. I questioned the manager in the bar, and she simply stated it's our company policy to get payment before the order is put in. She did not even want to hear what I had to say or give me time to explain why I was humiliated. This is no way to treat your customers. I would suggest more training for both your server and bar manager. I've managed several restaurants in my life and there is a right way to ask for a credit card. This is completely unacceptable. Customer service needs much improvement. Luckily my clients had a good time. PS. If you order a burger make sure to say how you like it made, even if the server does not ask you. The ambience was great and a cute valentine decoration to the right as you walk in great for selfies with your friend or loved ones. read more

This place is 100% a great spot I wanted to lead with that because I think our experience was circumstantial to a themed day. We were in town for an emo festival and this place just happens to throw an emo brunch which is super cool by design. They had a photobooth, signage, a dj with throw back music videos rolling, honestly such a cool vibe! The cocktails I was totally happy with! They had great flavor and just enough strength to feel okay about the price in Vegas, no qualms here! My issue was with the food itself, they had this really sweet idea to make it "emo" and make the foods black "syrups, waffles, etc" unfortunately, the food coloring just dissected the flavor from the food and made it meh to endure. I had steak and eggs and I cannot complain about that, but my wife's chicken and waffles was just not the play. My suggestion to them would be to just go with other options to dress the food up other than just flooding the mixtures with black food coloring But they really did go all out for it which is why I only dropped a star, even the menu was fully named out to follow suit! A++++ for being creative guys, next year I would just ask the kitchen their thoughts on how to deliver the food. Would 100% return!!! read more
