Hidden in the back of the NoMad is one of the best speakeasy-style bars I've ever been to. The service here is absolutely phenomenal--attentive, welcoming, and genuinely top-notch. The drinks were crafted perfectly, both creative and balanced, and easily some of the best cocktails we've had in Vegas. And then there are the desserts. Absolutely wild--in the best way. The lemon meringue pie, in particular, blew me away. Honestly, it might be the best lemon meringue pie I've ever had. Between the atmosphere, the incredible drinks, and desserts that go above and beyond, this spot is a must if you're at staying at the hotel. Highly recommend checking it out--you won't be disappointed!

This is such a cute spot! We had a great time here before seeing NKOTB. They had live music and it wasnt super busy. We ordered the tuna tartare (highly recommend!) and the sweet potato chips and dips. Definitely worth a stop in!

It's been a while since I had the pleasure of hitting up the Nomad Bar. This is honestly one of my favorite bars on the Strip to grab a cocktail. The cocktails are OUT of this world delicious and the ambiance is just absolutely beautiful. We stopped in before a Knights game and my sister in law had set up a reservation for her and her friend, and were able to add a bunch of us to the reservation no problem. I thought that was so nice that they accommodated all of us. They seated us no problem in a lounge type of setting, which was so nice. Our server was spectacular and did such a great job at taking care of us. We also told her we needed separate checks and she was super accommodating with that, too. I ordered the specialty gin cocktail (Nod to Nothing) and it was soooo good and refreshing. Not to mention, just beautiful. I loved it. Another friend got a negroni and his cocktail was rather delicious, too. My husband ordered the smoked old fashioned which was just delightful, too. So good. Seriously a huge fan of the cocktails. We had a couple food items, too, and I got to try the fried chicken which, WOW, I can see why it's a favorite. It was sooo good and the sauce gave it a nice little kick. The chicken was cooked to perfection and the perfect amount of crispy. We also got the fava bean hummus which was also so tasty and delicious. I really couldn't stop eating both of these items and would recommend both. Again, absolutely love this cocktail bar. I didn't realize across the way they have an entire restaurant. Definitely want to check that out one of these days, as well as the magic show they have, too!

Great vibe when the piano player starts. The cocktails are a bit pricey, but they have a decent selection and are not bad. It's a great space to sit, chill, and chat in an otherwise hectic casino (and town).

Espresso Martini
KC C.

This bar is nice and everything was dark, but very invitingly dark. We were seated shortly before 9:00pm on a Sunday night and very pleased that there was live music. Unfortunately within a few minutes the musician's set was done and he left. We ordered drinks and a cheeseboard. My companions loved their drinks. One of them was called hot lips. I'm unsure of the other one's name. I ordered the espresso martini, which missed the mark, it tasted weak on both the espresso and the spirit side, on a positive note it was very pretty with a beautiful foam on top. The cheeseboard is small. It was either $34 or $37. I can't be sure. I've attached a photo of it to my review. And you can compare with the size of the almonds and grapes. The items on the board were of excellent quality. Also we had a nice server.

Our first meal when we're in Las Vegas is usually at Nomad Bar. We will always order oysters. After that, anything goes! It's a nice place to have your first Las Vegas meal of the trip. There's normally a piano act when we have dinner during a weekend, but on this trip, the piano was dark. I was a bit disappointed as we always enjoy the entertainment. The food is delish. The cocktails are fun. The casino is just to your left. Enjoy!

Ice cream with fix ins
April D.

The ice cream was out of this world. I know you're thinking that ice cream from a bar wouldn't be good. But news flash, this place had AMAZING flavors. We got lemon, mango, coconut, and vanilla. Each one was absolutely phenomenal. We got some Red Bull vodkas and old fashions but my favorite thing from this bar was definitely the ice cream selection :)

Scallop ceviche

Cool vibe and live music. Professional helpful staff Great food. Recommend visiting for sure My favorite was the scallop ceviche but everything was good!

Live music & great drinks! Amazing service! From the hostess to the server ..they are so kind.

Nomad burger = awesome, fries great
Scott B.

Popped in here and sat at the bar for my post-Bill Burr comic show at Dolby Live next door. Found a seat at the bar without a wait on this busy Friday night at 10:45pm. Fun vibe, good live piano guy singing music- good energy. Played a nice mix of 80s-90s tunes. I sipped on a Golden Road Hefewezian beer while I waited on the Nomad Burger with fries. It was an outstanding tasting burger, and I would give it five stars if it wasn't so ridiculously expensive. The fries were served perfectly hot and crisp and I enjoyed both the ketchup and the French mustard type dressing. Good service. Great choice for a late night, albeit expensive, burger. Possibly my new favorite burger in Vegas.

Absolutely beautiful facility. Not a long wait, but it was also a week day. We did not order food but the drinks were good. Came for a magic show and the facility was amazing. Very beautiful andr clean, friendly and helpful staff, restrooms were not directly inside but were close by. Would recommend and return.

Sampler platter
Sue F.

Roaming around the nooks and crannies of the Nomad as we tried to find our room, we happened upon a piano bar. We decided that we had to stay - we could search for our room later. There were a few couples at tables but the happening place was at the bar. There were two seats left, a sign that we should stay. It was a girl's week in Vegas and we weren't holding back on the alcohol. We were trying different drinks and became enamored with the Sazerac. Our bartender started with a large, clear ice cube that he stamped with the Nomad insignia then proceeded to mix the perfect drink. We liked it so well that we had a second. The drinks were $25 each so we should have rethought that - but YOLO. Unfortunately the bar was closing early that night so our relaxing around the piano was cut short. The next night we decided to visit the Nomad Bar again. This time we were going to get one drink. Instead, we had two drinks each and a large app. Almost $150 without tip. The app was the sampler - a large plate of chicken tenders, tempura seafood, peppers and two sauces. It was very good although a little heavy on the peppers. We went straight for the Sazerac this time. Our drinks were served straight up - no ice. My friend, the Sazerac connoisseur, asked about the ice. Our bartender was newish and she said she made it like the head bartender told her to. The main bartender then came over and told us the story of the drink and how she makes it. Everyone interprets recipes their own way and as long as you can agree to disagree then there isn't a problem. The bar was a little more crowded the second night and we stayed almost until closing - just enjoying the music. The Nomad Bar is the epitome of a classic bar. Knowledgeable bartenders who can cater to every whim and excellent music made the perfect close to our busy days.

Forteleza & soda ($24 for tequila, $2 for soda) WTF?!
Joe P.

Its Mediocre Mon again! After an awesome dinner at NoMad Library, we decided to grab a drink across the hallway at NoMad Bar: We were sorry we did. Although the ambiance was nice (they have a live piano player, and the seating is comfortable), the service and pricing leave much to be desired. For example, our waitress Ariana (?) never checked on us after our initial order. It was not that busy. In addition, they charge $2 for mixing soda or tonic water w/ your liquor: WTF?!?!?!?!?! I have been in high end bars around the world, And i have never heard of this practice. You are already charging $24 for the liquor. Then you are going to nickel and dime me for $2 for soda?! Fuk That Shit!!!!! The only saving grace was the piano player, who was a hard working guy. Otherwise this place would be a Two Star 2uesday.

They had a limited selection of non-alcoholic drinks and upon asking if I could get one of their featured drinks in a NA version, the bartender seemed like he was being put out by the request. He made it, but the drink I got didn't really have any of the flavors described. If you are waiting for a tee time at Twilight Zone mini golf maybe you could stop in, though honestly I would probably just go to the bar down the hall by the food court.

I also got to check out the restroom, which boasts a high tech toilet with automated opening/flushing and a heated seat! We had the pleasure of meeting Michael our bartender and Yesi the bartender apprentice, and regulars Bill and Kim from Texas on one side of us, and Mario from California on the other as we spent the next hour and half savoring one luxury cocktail each and some complimentary snacks (seasoned pistachio nuts, cheesy crackers, and a little amazing bite that I can't remember the ingredients of). Welcome complimentary drinks: "Key to my heart" -- fun little rum drinks to start off with served in a spherical black case surrounded by dry ice! (See video). A bit sweet for my taste but tasty and just a little shot's worth (to be sipped). Cocktails: La Vie En Rose: (5/5) Rose infused gin, house made strawberry infused sweet vermouth, aperol, orange essence. Gorgeous spherical ice cube with a real flower frozen inside).

The only hint I'll give is that it's located on the casino floor. When we walked in, we were greeted by the hostess. She asked us if we had reservations or were walking in. I really appreciated this because the way she phrased her question told me they had availability and we would be granted entry. The bar is very small and seats about 30. Reservations are strongly encouraged, however we went on a Monday in February. If you're going on a weeknight during off peak season, you should be okay without a reservation. The hostess gave us the option of sitting at the bar or at a table. We asked her for her rec and she said the bar so that's what we chose. The decor is beautiful. The ambiance is dark and moody. It's perfect for a date night. We were greeted by both bartenders. I believe the bartender that made our drinks was Rory. He was very nice and knowledgeable about cocktails. He was able to answer our questions and make suggestions based on our preferences. As we browsed the menu, we were presented with welcome drinks in a fancy smoky container. I don't recall the name of the drink, but it had a lychee flavor with a sugar rim and it was good! Drinks are extremely pricey which is to be expected in Vegas. It's also on par based on where the speakeasy is located (hint hint). The cheapest cocktail was $30 so prepare yourself for the sticker shock. Some drinks were $80-$100! Sometimes you just have to treat yourself. I went with the Velvet Moon which was an interesting cocktail consisting of both gin and mezcal. It had flavors of hibiscus and it also had egg white which I absolutely love! The presentation was beautiful and I really enjoyed it! My friend went with the Basilico Bliss which he enjoyed. I didn't try any, but it looked really good. As we were enjoying our drinks, the staff presented us with savory bar snacks. They were tasty and were a perfect compliment to our cocktails. They do have food on the menu, but we had already eaten so we stuck with our complimentary snacks. As we were closing out, the staff presented us with a complimentary mini dessert. Rory described it as a Carajillo Jello shot. I don't like jello (I hate the texture), but I do love Carajillos. My friend does not drink coffee and does not like coffee flavor, so I ate both of them. They were so delicious (but the texture was off putting lol). I typically don't mention the restrooms in my reviews, but this one is worth mentioning. All I have to say is heated seats with a bidet! We really enjoyed our visit. Had the drinks not been so pricey, we probably would have stayed longer. If you enjoy speakeasies and/or craft cocktails, go have a drink at The Vault! The experience alone is worth it!
