This bar and grill is obviously on the decline. My husband and I decided to play, have a few drinks, and check out the menu. Their happy hour leaves much to be desired as it is extremely limited. It consists of $5 pints and $5 off their pizza, thats the totality. The bartender who served us initially must have been critically undertrained because she didnt know if they had a happy hour menu, what types of whiskey they carried, and forgot our drink order and had to come back and ask again. We decided to pass on the food since the costs were absurd for simple appetizers that you can find for half the price at any other local bar. We had 2 drinks each while we played keno and blackjack. We tipped and started to leave. The second bartender ran us down and explained that we had a bill of $20. It must have been extremely embarrassing for her to ask for such a menial amount even after we played and tipped, all while experiencing mediocre service. My husband commented that this is why the location is dead, and we wont be returning. She began to explain that all other local bars do this and our play wasnt sufficient enough for the drinks we consumed in the 45 minutes we were there. This statement was inherently false since we were each born and raised in this town and have frequented many local bars, dives, downtown, and the strip. Leadership at this location is obviously to blame for their lack of staff training, zero local appeal, no specials to attract weekday traffic, and penny pinching the alcohol they purchase at wholesale and charge at inflated prices. Their approach is desperate and embarrassing. Visit this location if you want to be overly charged for a terrible experience you can get anywhere else.

I don't know why but I've been here for over a year now and certain people end up charging me and my friend two hundred dollars between the two of us for four rounds of beers and 3 hours of pool while they let people with guns strapped to their hips in plain sight come in AND serve them alcohol all night long and they don't pay anything near what we pay but I guess it's because they carry guns and drink all night long so watch yourself coming to this location if they don't like you or you don't open carry a pistol on your belt, or gamble all night long it seems like they will take advantage of you keep your receipts from this place because it gets shady from time to time. Don't get me wrong, the people and atmosphere is good, but when one person charges me DOUBLE what I paid not a few days ago AND let's people in carrying GUNS ON THEIR HIP AND SERVING THEM ALCOHOL?!?!? I just don't know what to say about that. Watch your back here

Food and service is bomb, pool is great- but it's weird that they still allow people to smoke cigarettes inside?
You can't go here without smelling like cigarettes REALLY bad after.
