I came before the first UNLV game of the season and boy was it crowded which was to be expected but that doesn't take away from the fact that it was very, very crowded. There was a very long line to get beer from the bar though I found you could just go to the other side of the bar and order as well which was nice. It was pretty much standing room only unless you got a table and were eating and again, that was a very long wait. It could have just seemed extra crowded because about a third of this location was rented out for a private party but then again I could also see that being the case almost every game, though I could be wrong. I could be wrong but I feel like the drinks at this location, compared to their other locations around the valley, are more expensive. It makes sense, but it's also really stupid if that's the case. I had a few drinks and had a good time here with my friends but it was mostly just a watering hole before the game so we didn't have to pay stadium prices.

Usually it's just to fly out of Las Vegas for a work trip. This time though, I was in area for the US Post office. Looking for nearby places to eat, I saw that Smoke & Fire was only 10 minutes away! My husband and I stopped by for dinner around 3:30 P.M on a Friday at Smoke & Fire. The restaurant is located near South Pecos Road and East Russell Road. There was plenty of parking spots available. As I walked inside the restaurant, a team member had greeted us and let us know that it was open seating. There were only a few other customers inside the restaurant at the time we had dinner. There was plenty of tables inside and outside the restaurant though! TVs were situated throughout the restaurant. There was a variety of sports games playing. When we sat at our table, the team member brought over menus and asked if we'd like anything to drink while we looked through the menu. She also went through any dietary restrictions and some of their highlights at the restaurant, specifically, Smoke & Fire is known for their blueberry chicken sandwich. There are other options on their menu though, like BBQ items! Meat platters: Pulled Chicken, Pulled Pork, Brisket, Smoked Ribs, Hot Links, smoked Chicken Quarters. Sandwiches: Chicken Sandwiches, Brisket Sandwich, Donut Smashed Burger (Seasonal), Sliders Chicken and Waffles, Street Style Tacos, Chicken Tenders and more! After looking through the menu, we ultimately decided on the following 3 Meat Platter: Pulled Chicken, Pulled Pork, and Brisket with Mac N Cheese/Sweet Potato Tots The World Famous Blueberry Chicken Sandwich: Pepper Jack Cheese, Housemade Blueberry Jam, blueberry aioli, and Jalapeno. The service was super quick. I don't think we waited longer than 10 minutes for our meal. It was nice that our meal was served in to go containers as well! The highlight of the meal was the blueberry chicken sandwich. The chicken was juicy and tender. The blueberry aioli and the jam was scrumptious. This was a first time having a sandwich like this before! I would come back to Smoke & Fire just to get the sandwich. The BBQ pulled pork, pulled chicken and brisket was good. I enjoyed the mac n cheese and the sweet potato tots though! I don't normally see sweet potato tots so I just had to try it out! They were super crispy and packed with flavor. The food was yummy here and the service was fantastic! If I'm in the area again, I would stop by Smoke & Fire to have another meal. I think next time though, I am going to have to try out their pulled pork burger!

The wings all seasoned well... that lemon pepper def no mistaking it. The house still trying to figure out the secrets to that one. The Mac & cheese was cheesy but overly and cooked to perfection. The cake was something I've never had before.. a chocolate chip cookie dough cake... good but rich. The Nashville sandwich was messy but worth it. Haha I really like the fries.. seemed natural and just the right amount of salt and pepper. Overall I recommend trying this place and I can't wait to go back.

A friend of ours had recommend this place and said it was a cool spot to hang out play pool and watch sports. We decided to check it out. The location is on Sunset and nearest cross street is Green Valley. It is in the same parking lot as Joes Crab Shack. I kept looking around for it because the buildings on that side of the complex looks deserted. I eventually saw the banner as there're is no sign up yet Inside you can tell they are still getting it all together. There was a rock band setting up and getting their sound right Now on to the most important thing the food. We ordered the lemon pepper wings , Catfish and Fries. The run a $1 wing special daily according to our server Amber. The lemon pepper to me was kind of salty, the catfish was kind of fishy I wouldn't get that again if I went back. The service was kind of slow as there was only one waitress working the inside and outside areas, she did a great job but they definitely need to hire more servers. I was able to meet the owner who said his name was "Papa". I had a hard time believing that lol, as it sounded more like a nickname or maybe he's somebody's "Papa? Either way he was nice and said they had been there six months and he was getting it all together. According to the owner the hamburgers and the wings are the best sellers, he stated they have different genres of music different nights, Comedy and Karaoke nights along with Trivia nights. It's a great local business to support and I'll try it one more time and try the burger for sure .

Vibe: Sophisticated, Professional, and Energetic…read more ​For anyone looking to impress a client, close a deal, or celebrate a milestone with colleagues, finding the right venue for a business lunch can be a delicate balancing act. You need an environment that is sophisticated but not stuffy, lively but quiet enough for serious conversation, and supported by a culinary program that commands respect. The George Sportsmanship Lounge delivers on all of these fronts with remarkable grace, redefining what a modern business lunch can--and should--be. ​The Atmosphere: Polished Athletic Heritage Meets Executive Comfort ​Walking into George, you are immediately struck by how masterfully the design bridges the gap between a high-end club and a refined, modern lounge. The decor pays a tasteful, artistic homage to the spirit of "sportsmanship"--think rich leather banquettes, beautifully curated vintage sporting photography, warm walnut accents, and low, ambient lighting that feels incredibly exclusive. ​For a business lunch, the layout is exceptionally well-thought-out. The seating is spaced generously to offer genuine privacy for confidential conversations, and the acoustics are engineered beautifully; there is a vibrant hum of energy in the room, yet you never have to raise your voice to be heard across the table. It strikes the perfect balance of prestige and approachable comfort. ​The Food: A Masterclass in Contemporary American Cuisine ​While the ambiance sets the stage, the culinary execution is the true star of the show. The menu at George elevated our business lunch from a standard meeting into a memorable dining experience. ​We started with the Yellowtail Crudo, which was exceptionally fresh, accented with a vibrant citrus-yuzu vinaigrette and thinly sliced serrano peppers--a light, refreshing starter that perfectly primed the palate. ​For the mains, our table ordered the Dry-Aged Ribeye Frites and the Pan-Seared Chilean Sea Bass: ​The Ribeye: Cooked to a flawless medium-rare, the steak boasted an incredible crust and a rich, deeply savory flavor profile. Accompanied by truffle-infused hand-cut frites and a velvety chimichurri, it was a decadent but perfectly portioned lunch masterpiece. ​The Sea Bass: This dish was a revelation. Flaky, buttery, and resting on a bed of ginger-infused heirloom grains and baby bok choy, it was light enough for a midday meal while remaining deeply satisfying and complex in flavor. ​Even the non-alcoholic beverage program deserved applause; their mocktails, particularly the cucumber-basil press, were sophisticated and felt just as celebratory as a traditional cocktail. ​The Service: Impeccable, Swift, and Discreet ​Great food can easily be overshadowed by poor service, but at George, the staff understands the rhythm of a business lunch. From the moment we were greeted by the host, the service was seamless. ​Our server was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, offering precise recommendations and timing the courses beautifully. Crucially for a business meeting, the staff practiced "discreet hospitality"--they were highly attentive, ensuring water glasses were always filled and plates were cleared promptly, yet they never interrupted the flow of our conversation at critical moments. The entire meal was paced perfectly, wrapping up within a comfortable 75 minutes, leaving us plenty of time to return to the office without feeling rushed. ​The Verdict ​The George Sportsmanship Lounge successfully shatters the mold of the traditional, outdated steakhouse business lunch. By combining a stunningly curated, upscale atmosphere with world-class gastronomy and highly professional service, they have created the ultimate venue for the modern executive. It is a masterclass in hospitality, and it has easily secured its spot as my go-to recommendation for lunch meetings. ​Highly Recommended for: Client entertainment, executive team lunches, and power midday dining.

The George is one of those places where I really wanted the food to match the environment…read more The atmosphere is great. Tons of TVs, a beautiful space, indoor and outdoor seating, and a really good setup for catching a game over breakfast, brunch, or drinks. Being Vegas, the patio is still a little ambitious in early October, so we stayed inside and had a great time watching the game. Unfortunately, the food itself landed firmly in the "average" category for me, especially for the price. I ordered the avocado toast with lox and poached eggs. At roughly $23 for avocado toast, the details matter.(the eggs and salmon bring it from $16 to $23) First problem: the toast wasn't really toast. It was a nice, thick piece of whole wheat bread, but mine wasn't actually toasted. That immediately took away the texture you want from avocado toast. The avocado itself also tasted more like a prepared avocado spread than fresh avocado. I've seen what comes from restaurant vendors and suppliers out here and most certainly can say it comes from a plastic squeezable pouch). I obviously can't say what they're using in the kitchen, but the flavor was extremely muted. At this price point, I'd much rather see fresh avocado, even roughly smashed with some herbs and seasoning. The lox tasted good, but the presentation felt thrown together. The microgreens amounted to maybe 10-12 little sprigs, and I counted about three pieces of sun-dried tomato. Neither needs to overwhelm the dish, but there should be enough to actually experience those flavors throughout the meal. Then came the eggs. I specifically ordered them poached medium and asked for more of a jammy center. My server was great about it and assured me that wouldn't be a problem. Unfortunately, the first eggs arrived significantly undercooked. When I cut into them, the whites were still runny and essentially collapsed onto the plate. I sent them back, and the replacements were much better. Even the side of fruit missed the mark. It was basically red grapes and strawberries, and several of the grapes were already soft and past their prime. Again, individually these are small things. But when breakfast items are running roughly $16-$30, those small things become the difference between an average breakfast and one that justifies the price. Two of us walked out around $80 before tip for breakfast, and that's where I struggled with the experience. I'm perfectly willing to pay more for great food. But the ingredients, preparation, portions, and execution have to support the price. The George isn't a quick food-hall stop. It's a beautiful full-service restaurant inside Durango Resort, and the atmosphere absolutely feels like it. I just wish the breakfast coming out of the kitchen matched it. Great environment. Good menu ideas. Friendly service. But based on this visit, the actual food quality and execution were mid-tier at best. For me, that's a solid 3 stars. There's enough here that I'd give The George another shot, but next time I'm ordering something completely different.
