When you're outside of Vegas proper, the good food pickins are slim, but the Dillinger does not fall into the bad category. Come here if you're looking for burgers that aren't awful. The steak salad isn't terrible, but needs more steak. Would eat at again if I'm near Hoover Dam. read more

Food was delicious and didn't disappoint, the restaurant is located inside an old bank building in Boulder City . The ambiance is that of an old speak easy , they allow children's though. Our whole family enjoyed the dinner. Would recommend . read more

After kayaking at the lake, we all developed an appetite and I went on handy dandy Yelp and found this place. It had good ratings so we took a leap of faith. First off, boulder city is such a cute little town. Looking for this place I saw a lot of places I would want to come back and try! Place was busy but not too busy where we couldn't be seated right away. They had an outdoor seating as well. Menu isn't too cluttered, you can automatically see everything they offer which I liked. I decided on a firehouse chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries and everyone else got the infamous Dillinger Burger. My sandwich was pretty good. It had a good kick to it. It had jalapeño bacon! Yum! The sweet potato fries were the bomb! It was definitely made for more of a sweeter taste rather than savory. It had a sugar cinnamon taste which is different than other fries I've had. The Dillinger burger was pretty good as well. There was just too much going on with that burger tho. A lot of meat in it, which is not technically a bad thing. It just didn't sit well with me. But the actual burger was good. The check took a while to come out but it was getting kind of busy. And my water wasn't refilled the entire meal. Other than that our server was great. I left full but I don't know if I left satisfied. read more

We stopped here on the way back from a cruise on Lake Mead. I ordered the Dillinger burger and my wife ordered the special of the day--a burger with swiss cheese and mushrooms. The burgers come with fries so there was no need to order a side of them. We also got two iced teas. I ordered my burger rare and that's the way it came. The Dillinger is topped with applewood bacon, cheddar, and brisket. The burger was good but some of the flavor got lost with the brisket. I guess I'm going to go back to being more of a purist when it comes to burgers. Adding a lot of toppings to make your burgers different from other restaurants is getting a little carried away. My wife's burger was cooked medium as she wanted and there was lettuce and tomato for on the burger or for eating as a side which was what I did. No more on top with the Dillinger. For dessert, we shared a peach bread pudding with some vanilla ice cream. It was tasty but nothing special. Service was OK. My iced tea was refilled several times without needing to ask. The atmosphere is interesting with its Dillinger theme--a large photo of whom graces the bar area. An OK place. read more

Diving right in and getting to the food part of this review first because I have to say The Dillinger Food and Drinkery serves up some dang good burgers. Possibly the best here in Clark County! Their burgers here are quality 1/2 pound patties, Top Round and charbroiled to your liking. seasoned well, cooked just right, (one med rare, other well done) and juicy! Patties were a good size too! We ordered the top two requested burgers The Dillinger and Baby Face Nelson. "The Dillinger" Burger is topped Brisket, Applewood Smoked Bacon, and cheddar cheese. This one was freaking awesome! I took a lil bite of Mr. B.'s burger. The bacon was crisp.The brisket was so tender and moist. Really good brisket, it had the right amount of mild bbq sauce mixed in. Mr. B kept saying it's the best one he's had. "Baby Face Nelson" Burger is topped with a hunk of baked brie cheese, mixed greens and a fig marmalade spread. It felt like a healthier kind of burger. Less calories in brie vs cheddar and fig vs mayo based spreads right??? Anyways the combo of these ingredients went very well with the burger. Even the bun was pretty good. The burgers comes with your choice of sides of fries or Asian style cole slaw. Additional charge if you want onion rings or sweet potato fries. I love the Asian style slaw.There was sesame oil in the dressing. Clam chowder was the SOTD. Not the best but pretty good. And you know I had to peek at what others were having around us! The Fire Roasted Artichoke that couple was having at the table next to us looked real yummy to me! They said they liked the smoked tomato chipotle aioli sauce they were dipping the artichokes into. Omg Im ordering this next time. Oh they have craft beers. Dog Fish Head...I know some of you guys who like it. Well it's here. Did you know this building use to be a bank from the '40s? Hence why the place is themed and named after the legendary bank robber John Dillinger. Price wise not bad at all. For the two of us it was around $30 for our entrees, a cup of soup and drinks. That's pretty affordable to me. The place was packed inside. So I only saw the inside of this place for a brief moment. Space wise not that big but roomy enough for everyone dining in there. It's an old building still has the original brick walls and vintage Bank of Nevada sign on the wall. The bar is in the center and a few tables surround the area. We sat out front since all the tables and even the bar area inside was all occupied. There were vacant tables lined down the front of restaurant. Fun people watching and chatting with those who walk past by. They take reservations so if you plan on coming during the peak lunch and dinner hours I would call them. We were there around 3pm on Friday and a holiday so it was busy. Service was great! Everyone was friendly. Our orders were taken right away and food brought out in a timely manner. The owner made the rounds and checked up on everyone. I love just the overall small town charm of Boulder City and local owned restaurants like this one just enhance it even more. We're already have plans for another date lunch here! read more

The Dillinger is our go-to when we're staying in Boulder City and want an $18 burger. Good food and service.

Food is fantastic! Whether it's one of the awesomely different burgers, Philly cheese or the Steak salad. Service is equally good indoors or outdoors. My choice in town with friends. read more

After an amazing sightseeing visit along Lakeshore Drive, we stopped by The Dillinger to relax and enjoy a well-deserved meal. We were lucky enough to get the last table inside and we were pleased to be in a cool spot, out of the burning sun. Our burgers were awesomely stupendous. I had the Baby Face Nelson, with brie, greens, and fig marmalade! Yum! My wife had The Dillinger, which included both bacon and brisket! Double Yum! Combine with beer and life was definitely good! read more

Location is great, ambiance is wonderful. They have one of the best burgers I've had. Nice outdoor seating and the staff are friendly.

As much as we go here I should have already done a review! Well, it's the place to go in town for dinner. We even get takeaway from here. The black bean burger with avo and red onion and sweet potato fries is my staple. My husband eats all the burgers and says each one is his favorite. Cocktails are good. Sit outside and watch the world drive by. read more

My boyfriend and I decided to go to the Hoover Dam, because he had never been. We decided since we were going through Boulder City, we should catch a bite at a restaurant in the area. I am a big burger lover, so he suggested The Dillinger knowing I would like a burger place. We got there a little after 1pm, and the place was still packed. The only available tables were outdoors. Not wanting to delay our trip to the Dam, we decided to sit outside. It was a little chilly, but not too bad. I ordered the Pancho Villa with regular fries, and he ordered the Dillinger with sweet potato fries. The burgers were delicious. If I had to critique it, I would have to say the regular fries are definitely better than the sweet potato and the Pancho Villa wasn't remotely spicy (which I assumed it would be given all the spicy elements). The sweet potato fries could have been crispier. Since we sat outside, the wind unfortunately cooled our food faster than we would have liked. Not the biggest hardship, but worth noting if you dine there on a cold day. Overall, we loved our burgers. If we are in the area again, we'll try sitting inside and explore more of the burger menu. read more

It was my husband's birthday, and we were in search of a really good burger. Nothing fancy, no kimchi or giant portions of any kind. Just a good old fashioned, tasty burger. Our search led us to Boulder City. I really like the theme here, including burgers like 'The Bugsy', 'The Bonnie Melt' and 'The 45 Special', which is what my husband chose. The 45 Special comes with 3 types of cheese; Swiss, Cheddar and Jack. Ordered this medium rare and with a side of onion rings. I ordered from the appetizer menu, and got plain chicken tenders. I had the option of getting them 'mild' or 'spicy' as well. I chose the Ranch Dressing. His burger came out exactly how he ordered it, and the onion rings looked fresh battered there at the restaurant. Unlike most places, they serve a good amount of onion rings. His burger came with lettuce, tomato and onion and was perfect as the juices started running down his arm as he bit into it. I got 4 very large chicken tenders, heavily battered and fried to a crunchy texture. The meat itself was very juicy and tender. Their ranch was very flavorful as well. The food here is really good. The theme inside is great. It was, however, a bit dark. It needed some warmth inside. It was hard to see everything, and the bar was also dark. Our waitress sat at the bar and texted, which is not cool. There are a few TVs showing various football games, and some outdoor seating on the sidewalk. Fun place, but too dark for us. read more

Took a trip to BC from Vegas and loved this little spot. The air is cool; sitting outside was a must. Not a problem finding a table, so we're in business. Ordered the Reuben & The 45 burger, to share & try both (our server said you can't go wrong either way). The little guy ordered kid's chicken fingers & fries. The onion rings, fries & sweet potato fries - one was better than the next - and they were all delish! Our burger was cooked perfectly medium, score! Chicken fingers were especially flavorlicious, just a tad dry- no complaints, however. The Reuben was also good. The standouts for me, though, which I would order again were the 45 Burger & any of the fried sides. Also, tried a hefeweizen suggested by our server - she was so helpful, had great timing and just the right level of sincere hospitality...for that, you sold me a 5 star review. read more

The food is really good but I gave four stars because the price was a tiny bit high for me. Two adults, two non alcoholic drinks , one appetizer and two entrees will set you back $60 plus tips, not bad for dinner but too much for lunch. I definitely recommend the food. read more

If you want a goood hamburger, go to The Dillinger. The meat tasted fresh, it was well seasoned but not over powering and it came on a really good bun. The burger was bug enough that I couldnt finish it. My father in law and mother in law shared on so you are getting your money's worth. Pretty solid french fries as well. The staff was fast and super friendly. We sat outside because the weather was nice. My only complaint is something that they really can't control. The building is a little small and the eating area inside was really cramped and packed in, not really my thing, especially with the current health crisis. This may be something to consider when choosing to sit inside ahead of time. My overall experience was really good and our family has been back several times and we plan to go back as well. read more

After Hoover Damn tour went to The Dillinger in Boulder City. Onion rings & The Dillinger burger just perfect! Service great!!!

Ask some locals in Boulder City, NV at the FlightLinez Zip Line company for a recommendation for a good local restaurant The Dillinger was a unanimous recommendation for great place to find a good burger The Dillinger named after the former mobster with a fun menu with excellent creative choices I got the Sticky Burger with Smoked Bacon, Fried Egg and PEANUT BUTTER .... yes I know peanut butter seems somewhat wackadoodle... But it was a Fine Burger Absolutely great it's for leisurely meal after zip lining at FlightLinez also in Boulder City, Nevada Plus I had extra side sauces from the beer battered onion rings and macaroni bites read more

Did a little bit of Yelping and found this place after a couple hours of ziplining in Boulder City. The thing that reeled me in was the massive IPA selection. Hooked! It was a bit dark and small, not what I expected when we first walked in. But, still such a cute spot! Reminiscent of the old divey saloons in a historic part of town. Noticing that it was a bar, I wasn't expecting much out of the food. However, the Sticky Burger special with peanut butter was surprisely good. Portion size was buck-bangin, and the IPA selection was plentiful. The waitress was super sweet and patient even with me 'huh'ing, 'can you repeat that 1st IPA,' and 'what was that 2nd one again'. The sweet potato fries had some kind of cinnamon sugar sprinkled on, which was too sweet for my liking. Great location with nice portions of bar food that exceeds typical bar food expectations. I doggie bagged half my burger because between the burger, fries, and IPA, I would've walked out of there with a 5 lb food baby. read more

I'm so glad this place is able to operate during these restricted and trying times. We had been wanting to bring our friends here since last year. We raved to them about the ambience, food, and staff. We were happy to finally get to go. Food, as always, was amazing! Sad that their famous, amazing cheesecake (cooked fresh by a small Henderson bakery) was no longer available because the bakery didn't make it through Covid shutdown : ( No reservations needed. They do require masks for entry and appeared to follow State mandated Covid guidance. read more

Best sweet potato fries I've ever had! The food is great and the service was wonderful! The only thing that stopped me from giving this place 5 stars was the music... they play great music but wow I found it to be really loud. You kinda have to shout at each other to have a conversation even though you're sitting right across from each other lol read more

We had 15 people randomly show up on a Friday at lunch. Great service, food and atmosphere!!

Stopped in after our drive into Boulder just to grab a quick bite before heading to the campground. Took us a minute to get menus, among everything else that we ordered. They were out of a few menu items and when we ordered a beer we had to explicitly ask for a glass for it. It became apparent why we were treated without kindness when our waitress partook in a conversation with a handful of other patrons about how much they don't like locals. Making jokes that didn't even apply to us. There was even a rowdy conversation when we were served about how they should get their food before us just because we're from out of town. 2 stars: 1 because we got food & 2 because the decor was nice. read more

I visited to try their Gauntlet Challenge. Monster sized burger with 5 sides: fries, sweet potato fries, onion rings, cole slaw and bread pudding. 20 minutes to eat it to get it free or it is $50. I was happily surprised at how good all of the food tasted. Really was delicious. So glad we tried this place right near the Hoover Dam. Only thing better than the food was the service. So friendly and helpful. Don't take my word for it, you can see the video here: https://youtu.be/exkYMTdbL8Q read more

We were in Las Vegas for a work trip and had some free time our last day. After visiting the Hoover Dam, we hopped on Yelp for a good place to eat. The Dillinger not only had great reviews but it was close! It's located in Historic Boulder City; very cute little town. The Dillinger is a small place that feels divy but is very clean. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The sandwich selection was impressive. It made it very hard to choose between all of the delicious sounding sandwiches. We started with a fire roasted artichoke; which a table of 4 shared. It was just that, an artichoke cut in half and fire roasted. It came with a dipping sauce which tasted a little like thousand island dressing. It was very simple but very good if you like artichokes. I ordered a jalapeño bacon chicken sandwich which was OMG good. Other selections at the table were tuna melt, Ruben, and Caesar salad. Everyone was very happy with their choices. I do have to mention the fries. I ordered sweet potato and the other ordered regular. The regular fries were really good but the sweet potato fries were just fantastic. Probably the best I've ever had!! If you find yourself near Boulder City, NV, you won't be disappointed with The Dillinger. read more

This was an excellent place to stop for a drink and lunch after our hike at Bootleg Canyon. Thanks Yelp! It's small with some bar seating and a few tables, as well as a few tables outside. It's all seat yourself. They felt a little under-staffed as the service wasn't exactly attentive or quick. But it was friendly. There were several food and drink specials, as well as a decently lengthy menu. Everything sounded tasty. And I definitely appreciated the humor interlaced in the menu descriptions. "No beer was harmed." They had some good local brews on tap, as well as some good bottles too. We settled on a couple of appetizers. (But oh man did those burgers sound tasty!) We had the philly steak fries (a philly cheesesteak but on top of fries) and smoked gouda mac 'n' cheese bites with a fab tomato aioli. Both were filling and quite tasty. I particularly loved the fries. It was a delicious and unique take on a cheesesteak. And the mac 'n' cheese bites were definitely some of the best I've had. It's got a nice vibe and ambiance. Minimalist and modern with some speakeasy and mob touches. All in all, we will definitely come back again whenever in Boulder City. read more

We came for dinner after an outdoor beer fest so were very pleasantly surprised that the wait for a patio table was only a few minutes. There were several staff really hustling to get groups seated and take orders- it was very busy. Which may explain why we had a rotating cast of servers. Perhaps because they knew they would be slammed, they used only disposable plastic cups and tableware- not my favorite. :( Also, there was a sticker on the menu stating there is a $2 upcharge for beef (on a menu that is very heavy on beef items and claims they have great burgers). I found that very strange- print new menus if you increase the prices. I ordered the Baby Face Nelson burger, topped with salad greens and melted brie, with a side of fig jam, on a brioche bun- sounds worthy of a $16 price tag except the patty had no seasoning- not even salt or pepper was detected. My husband had The Baron burger, topped with pastrami and coleslaw, and while the toppings were tasty, his burger also was unseasoned. Perhaps that's the intent, but I found it disappointing. Our sides of onion rings and fries were very good. There was a musician set up on the sidewalk, in front of the closed neighboring real estate office, so I'm not sure if that was their live music or not. Overall, a decent choice, but could stand a few tweaks. read more

Service is always great, as is the food. My go to has been the Dillinger burger, but everything I've tried has been good.

Delicious burgers and fries today outside on the heated patio with our dog. It's a very popular restaurant with repeat customers like us.
