    Pulled pork sandwich
    Savannah R.

    So wifey and I wanted to try something new rather than a 5 normal places and we were looking around on Yelp and came across this bar! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Walking in the vibes are it, very beach forward themed smaller restaurant area and decency size bar with keno machines.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bartender is friendly and super welcoming. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything is decorated so cute as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We sat at 2 machines, got cards, and your first 20 points you get $20 freeplay so that's a bonus. The machines we are on are keeping us on our toes. The menu is a decent size we ordered the pulled pork sandwich & the French Toast & both were BOMB. The flavor on the pork was amazing and the sweet roll French toast was just sweet enough. Would highly recommend and we will be returning. 06/03 10:00 PM

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Dive bar vibes yet super clean and spacious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Bartender was super friendly and patrons were fun and conversational. Tons of TVs showing all the live sports games, 4 electronic dart bards, a pool table, and about a dozen beers on tap. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Chill reggae music playing making it a great spot to do some work or hang out for a couple drinks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Happy hour has good drink and food specials.

    This my spot! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's clean, friendly, and completely smoke free.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They offer a great selection of food and drinks, and the burgers are bomb! Trivia every Wed is a lot of fun too

    Solid. Was gonna go to a familiar but delicious spot for my birthday but woman showed some videos and the menu sounded yummy here so we came. Wasn't super busy, we were greeted when we walked in. Jessica was fabulous! Knowledgeable, attentive, kind and funny. She was able to answer every question we had about the menu and her recommendations were spot on. We did the 3 for $20 app platter w surfboards, potstickers and Rangoon. Delicious! Everything tasted fresh and the house made marinara and ranch were amazing. Lots of things on the menu were appealing but I ultimately did the garlic noodz w shrimp and woman did the piccata. Jessica knew the piccata was lemony and that the noodz paired better with the shrimp than meatballs and she wasn't wrong. They could've put a couple more shrimp on but given what they charge it's probably on par. My food was good but it got better overnight. The garlic set in and the bread was amazing!!! They had a lot of things on the menu I'd come back to try. I'd also come back for Jessica's amazing service. She really made the visit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place itself is spacious and we had our pick of tables. Naturally I did the VIP one in the corner. It was made for royalty lol.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lots of screens and one had cute animals and bloopers. They had another announcing upcoming events at tavern and what the different days specials are.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great food and experience. Jessica said they got busier after the video came out so they schedule staff to accommodate. The waits were reasonable and we had a great experience.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice little hole-in-the-wall gaming bar with a great vibe![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everyone was friendly when we walked in, and the atmosphere felt really welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We only gambled this time but definitely want to come back and try the food. I can't remember our bartender's name, but she was the younger woman with light brown hair working this past Monday night--super friendly and an excellent bartender!

    12 former employees from the old MGM Grand/Bally's slot department met at The Tavern. Mario (?) put together tables and chairs. We had pizza and drinks while talking about old times. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Rap music although not appropriate was not too loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Appreciate the effort to accommodate us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Bathroom door displays very unusual.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Spaghetti and meatballs special
    Robert B.

    We went on a Thursday night to catch the spaghetti dinner specials. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pulled up thought the spot was a bit sketch but cool. Rolled in and found the interior to be pretty cool.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server Jaimie, with two i,s in her name was awesome. She pretty much was the entire staff. Now the spaghetti. Normal boiled noodles and canned sauce. The meatballs were two formed and fried balls of hamburger. Not much for spice. More reliant on the sauce. No garlic bread in sight. The martini was good. The shot of cinnamon whiskey was generous and the 805 on tap was nice and cold. The price was also very nice on everything.

    All of the food for the $50 Buffet AYCE, right in front of their restroom :)
    Emily A.

    We had really disappointing experiences. Just look at the photos and ask yourself if this is worth a $50 buffet: boiled chicken, salad, fries, sausage, beans... Everything was bland and cold. It was shockingly bad, even Golden Corral does a far better job. Yes, the price includes unlimited beer, but realistically, how many beers can you drink to justify a $50 ticket when the food is this poor? And FYI, it's unlimited cheap beer, soft drinks like Coke or tea aren't even included. I expected them to maintain at least a decent standard, but this was truly unacceptable. It feels like they cut corners in the worst way and ended up driving customers away. They don't host buffets often, so this should have been a chance for people to sample their dishes and want to return. Instead, it did the opposite. You genuinely feel like they just wanted to rip you off and didn't care about your experience at all.

    Moved the corn over to see how much grease and butter it's sitting in.

    We have been here during the day and our experience with Mallory has been great. Good food etc. Being here for the first time on a Saturday night, I expected so much better. Our food is soooo soaked in grease. The corn is in a bath of grease and butter, and the chips aren't even cooked all the way they just go limp and wiggle. Gross. Waitress tried saying this is how it normally looks. From our experience it is not how it normally is. Still like the workers tho.

    Great service by the bartender Max! Very personalized service, asked us our names and used them throughout the service. He even switched the TV over so I could watch my Colts play! A must try is the fried PB&J sandwich...amazing!

    Pork quesadilla and a Cali Squeeze. Yummy food and drink

    It was my first time here. I heard great things about this place. So I decided to check it out. The service was very friendly and welcoming. I ordered the pork quesadilla, deep fried peanut butter and jelly sandwich. And a Cali Squeeze. Everything was very delicious. There is specials on a daily basis. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is very good for friends and family to come. There's different activities to do[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].

We were skeptical on our first…read morevisit about the soup and salad that's included we thought oh that's a nice touch but it's probably just a tiny little cup of soup and a tiny little side salad. NOPE. You got a nice bowl of soup and a decent size salad. Taste and quality is excellent! Our only tiny bit of feedback would be that the soups needs to be hotter every time we've gone it's lukewarm. Their gumbo soup is really good too. Every meal we've had has been a very nice size portion the quality has been really good, the steaks are tender not full of fat, and nothing has been overcooked or greasy (which I would kind of expect for a diner type of place). I was hesitant about trying the burnt steak ends with the kimchi fried rice and egg off of the summer promotional menu but I was actually quite impressed with the taste and quality and portion size it was way better than I anticipated. On the fried items such as the sampler platter appetizer the quality of it is good and it's not overcooked but the oil needs to be changed because the product is coming out kind of dark and makes it look like it's overcooked (but yet the chicken tenders were not dried out at all they were quite good. Probably the best ones I've had if they had just changed the oil) Whatever brand they're using for their salad dressings is excellent (It's not uncommon to find Caesar or ranch to be on the tangy bitter side but not theirs) We really like that they rotate the soups and the vegetable options everyday. And they also have one soup option that never changes. I wish they would do that for the vegetable as well and have one option that never changes. Service every time has been really friendly and attentive. There have been no issues with the timing of our meals we've never waited excessively long for any anything to come out to the table, drinks are always kept filled as well. Prices are reasonable especially for the portion of food size and the quality as well. And we don't really know any other diner type restaurant such as Denny's or IHOP that would include soup AND salad with almost every entree. The atmosphere is pretty much your diner style decor, the restaurant is very clean and we've never had any issues that we could see. We also really liked the promotional scratch off cards that they gave out for several weeks. That was one of the reasons it kept us coming back and trying other entrees. So other than that tiny little bit of feedback we will absolutely keep coming back. We've heard they're looking at opening three to five more locations around the valley and we look forward to one hopefully opening near the south summerlin area.

Sparrow & Wolf is a restaurant that I have always wanted to go too but since I usually stay on the strip I usually end up eating on the strip. I chose the $145 menu for each person, and also added a $14 ( yuzu lychee drink) There is also an option for unlimited drinks for $45 each but my group is not the largest of drinkers so I didn't choose that one. At Sparrow & Wolf I feel like we really got our moneys worth compared to going on the strip. A meal like this on the strip would have easily cost $250 - $300 per person. We were started off with a seafood tower which had lobster, oysters, shrimp, and a charcuterie /cheese selection on the bottom . We had the choice between steak or fish for the main course, I chose the steak. The steak was cooked a perfect medium rare. I also really enjoyed the pomme puree ( it was so buttery and delicious ) I really enjoyed all of the food that I had here and would definitely recommend Sparrow & Wolf for dinner!

Our server, Michael, was attentive and took great care of us throughout breakfast. I ordered the Nice N Easy Classic Breakfast with eggs, meat, potatoes, and toast. Everything was prepared perfectly, fresh, and tasty--a really solid classic diner breakfast. We also tried the oatmeal from the kids menu, which was very good. Most importantly, everyone at our table was able to order something they genuinely wanted rather than having someone in the group settle for the one option available to them. The food was great across the table, and everyone left happy. Definitely a great Las Vegas breakfast spot, especially if you're dining with a group that includes both vegan and non-vegan guests. Highly recommend!
