    Fish sandwich, garlic fries, black lab stout
    Gino D.

    What a find. I just happen to be passing by at the time I decided to get a bite to eat. Awesome beers Great food Great service Black lab stout with a fish sandwich and garlic fries, all was really good.

    Is it a drink or a dessert? Either way you're going to love it. Show Steve this pic and he'll know what to make.

    This is a great neighborhood bar with incredible food. Martin, the chef, can make a simple order of fries or chips and salsa taste like something you'd get on the strip. Steve, the bartender, has a wicked sense of humor and a great rapport with the customers. I asked him to make me something "sweet and ice creamy" and he knocked it out of the park. I forgot to get the name of this drink, but show him the picture and you'll be treated to one of the most satisfying drink that thinks it's a dessert!

    I was meeting a friend at Geri's Old Philadelphia (next door) and had a 1/2 hour to kill since I got there early....so, I wandered in this joint to have a couple of Beers while I burned some time. The place is really, really dark. It took my eyes a few minutes to adjust to the darkness. After I got my bearings, I saddled up to the bar and asked the bartender what they had on tap. He said they had no domestics on tap and mumbled off a short list....all I remember hearing was Alaskan Ale, so I said let's go for that. Wait, isn't that domestic? Ha, ok.... He brought me a pint and I sat back and watched Sports Center while a handful of guys played Video Poker at the bar. They serve food here as I saw a patron get a Burger & Fries.....the weird thing is that they allow smoking at the Bar...hmmm, you're not suppose to be able to eat and smoke in the same place. They must not care about getting fined. Whatever....the place smells like a smoker's den, so I guess it attracts smokers. I don't think the regulars care. The bartender was friendly but quiet....not much of a talker. I had my 2 Beers and left to meet my buddy for lunch @ Geri's. Will I return? Probably not...this was a one-hitter quitter, not really my style of bar.

    Sunday morning special come dowm.and try it

I think I didn't take more than $200 for the entire trip. I typically only bet on sports back then. I was beckoned by the 50¢ beers and the tasty 1/4 pound all beef hot dog here. I still get these to this day. So I remember having only about $15 in my wallet and about $60 in the bank. And I needed to ensure I had money for gas to make it back home. After 2- 50¢ beers and playing video poker down to my last 75¢, I hit a Royal Flush which does not trigger the bonus without max bet....which would have been $1000 if I had played $1.25.. But I didn't have $1.25. I was down to my last 75¢. Nonetheless it was still a jackpot to me even though it was $187.50! Almost enough for my truck payment at the time. This made the trip totally worth it after getting beat down on sports betting. The beers are still $2-3 and shots of Patron are $7. By far the cheapest place to get your buzz started, and right on the center of the strip behind Flamingo hotel and casino. The store on the backside is among the cheapest as well to buy jugs of water, single beers and snacks. It is a dive bar/casino and I feel absolutely comfortable here. Heavy security at the entrance and they ask you if you're going to the store or the casino. Though anything you buy you must leave at the door. It's a tiny casino with maybe a total of 25 slot and video poker machines. I will say, if you are looking for ambience or nice decor don't bother coming here.

    Did someone say Signature Detroit Style Pizza?? Tiki Bar?? Well then count me in! Love the dive…read morebar energy I felt as soon as I walked in. We have been wanting to try this place for sometime as we had heard how tasty the pizza is. Little did I know I would be taking a trip down memory lane due to the location of this place. It's cool and dark upon entry and that's how a tiki bar should be. The bar is shaped like a piano from the previous tenant. Nice stage in the corner as this is a punk rock bar that offers nightly/weekend entertainment. We walked in late afternoon and grabbed a couple of seats at the bar. Vanessa was our bartender and her service was spot on. We looked at the delicious cocktail list but we both felt like a beer. For the pizza we built our own. One pizza was pure pepperoni/cheese/sauce and the other one we ordered came with the brown sugar glazed ham, mushrooms and red sauce. This pizza was really quite delicious and so hot. I even tasted a little spice in the sauce which made the pizza even better. They are not stingy with the toppings. I had so many pepperoni's on my pizza, I lost count. The crust is caramelized and crunchy. They also offer vegan modifications for their pizzas so everyone can eat here. On Sundays, they offer the Surf Sunday Brunch with live bands each week from 11am - 4pm. I truly am looking forward to returning as I really enjoyed the pizza, the service and the vibe. FUN FACT: There once stood a night club/tavern back in the day called The Keyboard Lounge in this space and it was so fun to relive some great memories of dancing and drinking here!

Limited group tables (3 booths for 4ppl), 1 large table across the room, and plenty of stool bar seating. Pizzas are meant to be shared to taken to-go. A favorite spot for a friend who told us we'd love it and it's pizza! They have vegan options to make it into a vegan pizza!! This place would be called a typical Dive bar in LA. Vegas, it's a eccentric hot spot for certain crowds. Live music on the weekend night we visited was grunge rock, great! Staff are super friendly and willing to answer questions. Plenty of outdoor parking.

    Fun Hog Ranch. Fun…read moretime cheer! One of my favorite dive bars in Las Vegas with great drinks, happy hour, beer bust, events, and specials. Located on Twain Avenue, between Palos Verdes Street and Paradise Road. Their AYCD Thursday Nights (9PM to 1AM) is incredible and similar to their Sunday Funday beer bust, 4PM to 8PM. Located directly next door to FLEX, FHR offers more a rustic vibe, very leather/levi bar welcome of all. They have great bear nights, support local on goings like Las Vegas Pride, Smokeout Las Vegas and numerous others. The bartenders as well as the barbacks are plenty personable, with a lot of personality. Jukebox is solid and you can even download the AMI Play app which works for their Jukebox and similar digital Jukeboxes wherever you go. I got a couple of songs in. It can fill up fast depending on the night, time of day or day of the week and/or weekend. I can tell you Friday through Sunday was very busy, especially Saturday nights. It was great to hangout with my buds back from LA, run into friends from other states visiting for the weekend and make some new ones as well. Cigar friendly, but it can get a little smokey inside, even with the doors open, you can smoke outside as well, just no drinks allowed outside of the bar. There's plenty of parking, though rideshare or a great designated driver is your friend. Reminds me a little of some of my favorite gay dive bars in Los Angeles, as well as other areas and states. Very feel good, no attitude vibes. Open 24/7 - great acoustics, flat screens, restrooms and support for local happenings.

They had live music on Saturday nights that starts right at 10p. After we got our IDs checked, we walked in and were immediately overwhelmed. It was very loud, very busy, and looked like your typical dive bar, which was cool. There were no seats in the front of the bar, at the bar, or even the tables in the back. After ordering our pizza, we finally found seats to eat near the pool tables in the back. We ordered the Champagne & Reefer, which is their supreme pizza. We were hungry so this pizza hit the spot. To be completely honest, I think my friend and I did not enjoy this place because I think we were the youngest at this bar. Everyone around us seemed to be having a great time and we were happy for them. We were slightly overwhelmed and felt like we needed a bar menu. We ended up just skipping alcohol all together at this place. I might want to try this place again with a bigger group of people.

The only downside is that it did take awhile. I would definitely come back.
