    This places closes at 11:00. I was incredibly disappointed by my experience here. I had reserved a room for $285 and arrived with a friend, expecting a welcoming stay. Instead, I was met with cold refusal. DEBORAH BYRD turned me away, and when I asked if she was certain about denying services, she confirmed with a "yes" and walked off, leaving me standing there. I was humiliated. The space itself looked beautiful, and I imagine the food might have been excellent. But I'll never get the chance to find out , I'm not a local and won't be returning anytime soon. Laughlin has plenty of great spots, and because of this experience, I'll be choosing a different hotel the next time I visit.

    Starters and Salad Menu

    River Rock is a local favorite inside the Aquarius. I noticed quite a few folks placing pick-up orders (and with good reason). The wait was excruciatingly long, I think the staff underestimated the amount of orders they placed all in one shot. My issue with River Rock is that they allowed people who weren't even dining-in to place orders at the front and let them request they have their food delivered to them at the Splash Bar! This was unacceptable and a disservice. I'd understand if customers were picking up, but this was not the case. You could imagine dine-in customers being seated promptly, thinking they'll get their meal soon, only to realize the bar next door is FILLED with orders ahead of them. I was mad. My table and I waited 2+ hours to receive our food, we were seated immediately which makes this all the more shocking. Sadly, all the other dine-in patrons experienced this, including a woman who walked out and a family whose children fell asleep at the table waiting for their pizza. How was the PIZZA? I'm not going to lie I had high expectations given the wait time and I was not disappointed. This was the only saving grace, it was excellent. We ordered two delicious pizzas and an antipasto salad. I HIGHLY recommend the Margherita and Veggie pizzas. Both had authentic ingredients. The Margherita was my top pick but the Veggie wasn't far behind. The Veggie pizza had cheese that tasted like ravioli filling! I would eat them again. I also really enjoyed the live entertainment. We got to enjoy the last leg of this avant-garde singer with an amazing voice and kazoo skills. I could listen to him all night, he was so sweet! Very personable with the customers! Overall, the aesthetic of the restaurant was super cool, it was Italian meets rock concert. There's quotes from classic rock songs on the wall and trendy decor. I heard they had revamped it from its previous look, bravo! Service was meh, our server forgot to refill our drinks a couple times.

    Meatballs and garlic bread
    Mattea S.

    The service was quick! I got a pink Cadillac it was really good! Brooklyn style, meatballs with garlic bread, which was fire! The pizza was okay! Very clean and open atmosphere. I'm only rating it 4 stars because the check took a very long time to come and the Brooklyn Pizza was all right. It wasn't what I thought it would be.

    Black pepper on a margarita pizza

    Went inside on a Tuesday night. Everyone seated. Noticed only 1 server the whole restraunt that ran out of space and denied people soon after us. Its not covid anymore hire more staff. You can afford it. This 1 guy was clearly struggling. Caesar salad was great. Pizza looked like someone dumped a whole tray of black pepper on it. I actually somewhat liked it but too peppery and never have seen that on a margarita pizza before.

    Italian Sausage minus red pepper

    Great but do not go late. Please do not show up the last hour and request a bunch of pizza pies. These guys are very good at pizza but come early or give them enough time to cook it properly. This is not dominos. The Brooklyn, Margherita, and Italian sausage pizzas are good. The ceasar with chicken is decent. Be sure to call if you expect to have the Caprese salad, apparently it's seasonal. Anna, the manager, is fantastic. She's kind professional petite and lovely. If something is amiss be sure to contact her kindly. She'll treat you with fairness.

    Italian pizza

    Great view of the Colorado River. Hostess was very nice. I will say beware, the booths have minimal room. Server was very nice!! Off to a good start...Chad was our server We ordered the toasted ravioli and the Italian Deli pizza. The ravioli were 1 star -- frozen, defrosted, deep fried, part soggy and barley warm. For $13 -- We would not order this again. The pizza was 4 star in flavor but slightly undercooked. It was barley toasted on the bottom. If this would have been cooked more it could have been amazing. We waited a while for some ranch which was disappointing. Overall it was okay -- if I was in Laughlin again and craved pizza I would probably come back if convenient.

    I'll give this a 3. It was a late night snack, late for us, of spaghetti and meat balls and a Nano Meatball appetizer. Spice in the sauce was perfect. Temp of the food was perfect. Service was darn near perfect. Spaghetti was cooked perfectly. I'd give it a 5, but the Caesar salad was lacking. We will come back, it was a good meal overall.

Plus, on more than one occasion Diane and I had previously arrived here around 8:30 p.m. and were warmly greeted, seated, and enjoyed our ordered meals. But this Sunday night two days after Halloween, after we had crossed the Colorado River on the Don Laughlin Bridge and had driven for half an hour from our home in Laughlin, we arrived at 8:25 p.m. only to find the restaurant dark and locked, with nobody inside. Granted this was the first day of a time change in California and Nevada from Daylight Savings Time to Standard Time. But this circumstance should have had no effect on Arizona, whose time zone remained the same as the day before. Disappointed, we went in search of another place to eat dinner, and after encountering the kitchen staff of China Panda in the restaurant's parking lot about to leave for home half an hour earlier than its posted closing hour, finally wound up at reliable Black Bear Diner. We were the only patrons seated in the entire capacious restaurant until a few other people walked inside about 15 minutes later This spooky night felt like Halloween, but the tricks and added hunger we experienced occurred just a bit later.

Fantastic. Cooked like it had something to prove. Juicy, flavorful, and honestly the kind of steak that makes you pause mid-bite and reconsider your life choices up to that point. But let's be honest--Pam Pam stole the show. Pam Pam doesn't just bartend... she commands the bar. Drinks don't get made, they get orchestrated. I'm pretty sure she made my cocktail with one hand, took three orders, solved a minor dispute, and still had time to roast me for not knowing what I wanted. Efficient? Yes. Intimidating? Slightly. Entertaining? Absolutely. At one point I'm convinced she knew what I was going to order before I did. I asked for a recommendation and she looked at me like, "You strike me as someone who thinks they want whiskey but really needs a margarita." She was right. I didn't question it. The vibe? Somewhere between a high-end steakhouse and a family party where the funniest relative is in charge. You're not just a customer--you're part of the show whether you planned on it or not. Final verdict: Steak: Drinks: Pam Pam: deserves her own TV series Would I come back? Without hesitation. Would I sit at the bar again? Only if I'm emotionally prepared. 10/10--come for the steak, stay because Pam Pam won't let you leave without laughing at least once.
