    Stopped for the night in Elko. Decided to stay downtown and do a "private pub crawl". Machi's was…read morebusy on a Thursday night, we sat at the bar and had good service. Tested the Pork Cracklings, pretty solid and freshly made. The martini was good. People were friendly!

The bartender was friendly and prompt with service. There appeared to be many locals there. We were seated promptly for dinner. It took a bit for our server to arrive to our table, but once there she was friendly and informative. We started with the spring rolls. They were mushy on the inside. It appeared they were wrapped with dumpling wrappers that were soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. We didn't prefer the texture. Hubby didn't like the sauce served with them but I did. We wouldn't order them again. We chose a spinach salad as the side to our entrees. It was fresh but overdressed. It became soggy very quickly. Hubby had the braised lamb shank special. He said it was fall off the bone tender. There were parts of it on the outside though that were too hard to chew, as if those parts had been outside of the braising liquid too long. The polenta was grainy and undercooked. Polenta should be smooth and silky. The sauce was too salty. I had the Basque Pasta. I asked the waitress if the mussels were fresh and she told me they were frozen. I never should have ordered the dish. The mussels were so dry and fishy tasting I couldn't eat them, and I love mussels. I even bit down on a couple of pieces of broken mussel shells. There was hardly any sauce so the noodles were dry as well. The cheese on top wasn't melted. I barely touched my dish. The servers, including ours, were working very hard and seemed to be providing everyone with great service. I'm giving 3 stars because of the food. I know it's a local fave, but we won't be back.

    If you're coming to Mattie's Bar & Grill, make sure to ask for Teven!…read moreThis is the second time she has served my husband and me, and she has been absolutely amazing both times. She has such an upbeat, positive attitude, and you can genuinely tell she enjoys what she does. Great hospitality can be hard to find, but Teven truly stands out. She was attentive the entire time our drinks were never low, she checked in consistently without being overbearing, and she made our whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. Thank you so much, Teven! We can't wait to come back and see you again.

I will say, our service was great and super friendly. Restaurant was clean and we got a table quickly. But the food omg. Not good. I got a taco salad and it was so dry?!?? I've never thought of a taco salad as being wet or dry but I couldn't explain it. It was hard to eat. I got sour cream, Guac and salsa with it but it was still so dry. Bizarre.... My husband got the French dip and also didn't like it. Said it also had no flavor and was over cooked. The fries were hard as a rock and came in a grease puddle. Must have been the last fries of the bunch before new ones were made but how did the kitchen feel comfortable sending them out they were horrid.... We also got the kids Mac, the kids meals do come with a lot of food so that was nice.
