Wow, has this place tanked. See my positive review from six years ago. I've been back at least a dozen times since then - but just had an astonishingly bad experience. And with over 430 yelp reviews less than 10 of mine have been 1-star. A place has to be really bad.. After walking into a very full bar next door and being unable to get a drink, we walked in over here. Immediately, a guy walks up and says "Private Party". There were like ten people there. I explained that we were just looking for a cocktail and maybe some food - and some awful woman mockingly says "Oh.... That sucks" - making "shooing" motions. I don't know what happened, but needless to say we left, If you are closed, don't have the door open. If you are having a private party, it's easy enough to post a sign saying so - or have a host/ess at the door. But whatever is going on, don't allow your staff to permanently drive off customers- unless you're planning to permanently close. This is one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had in my 22 years in Las Vegas - and unfortunately, it was simply poor management. Never again. read more

I really want to like this place. I really really do. It just doesn't seem to be in the cards for me. I usually start and end my nights out at Atomic, so thought, "Why not get down with their kitchen part?" I've tried twice and both times was disappointed. The first time I got a burger, fries, and pretzel bites. The pretzel bites were served with nacho cheese, which was ok, but pretty generic. Pretzel bites with white queso or beer cheese...that's what we thought we were in for...not generic nacho cheese. I don't remember what the menu labeled it as, and unfortunately did not get a picture. I ordered the Atomic burger - because who doesn't want to try Atomic sauce? - and added bacon to it. The bacon was the issue. It had that weird crunch/texture to it where you bite and it kind of turns to ash in your mouth? Do you know what I'm talking about? It did that but with no flavor. It was super weird. THOSE PICKLES THOUGH!! They were so super yummy! The fries were weird too. They were like eating straw. I love shoestring fries, but these...you bite into them and they were basically hollow inside. We dipped them in the ranch, dipped them in the cheese, dipped them in ketchup...nothing was helping those fries. And then they got hard super fast. SMH. The next time around I ordered wings and chips and dip, specifically the corn salsa one. The wings were the best thing we had there, and I would probably order them again...but the chips and corn salsa...well...it was a little spicy but also had a different kind of flavor that, now here me out, kept confusing our taste buds. We could not decide if we liked it or not! It was just...different. I/we might go back to try their Sunday dinner thing, because like I said, I just really want to like this place, but so far, we will probably just order drinks while there...and probably just beers because that was something else. I love Moscow Mules, but theirs is REALLY spicy. I tried to ask if they could tone down the spice and was then told that the mix is pre-made....soooo gonna have to just not order them anymore...which is lame. read more

This is a very chill spot on Fremont, about a 5 minute walk from the Experience. Full bar, open atmosphere and good food. I got the steak frites and the steak was cooked perfectly! The drinks are bomb too! Dive bar vibes on the inside, but open-air kitchen on the outside. Highly suggest this place! read more

First of all, with a week after some of the world is open, the host was incredible. He was very informative professional & courteous. He asked if we could be patient, & went over some of the new rules that we all have to follow. It was very busy & yet social distancing was being practiced & enforced. To be honest, I'm not so sure I care that much, nevertheless it was nice to see they were doing a fine job. We were seated about 15 minutes after checking in & sat down with an incredible lady Devin (with an i). She was fun, informative, & very sweet. As for me, it was my first time at Atomic since I moved here two years ago & I can assure you it won't be my last. The drinks were delicious & the food was tasty. My beyond burger was so good I actually stopped & almost got upset because it tasted like real meat. Lol. It wasn't. Thanks Atomic, Door Host, & Devin with an i. Appreciate you all! Keep it up. read more

The Kitchen at Atomic - Beyond Burger - New American Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

This is a hidden gem, seriously it is kind of hidden. Our group had just finished the safety brief for the Mint 400 race in the llama lot and we were looking to grab a bite before bed - Of course I took to Yelp to find the perfect spot. It doesn't look like much from the outside, in fact you think your going to a liquor store...and then there it is! There is a great outdoor seating area, but it was a little chilly the night we were there so we opted for indoors. Our server was attentive and gave us some great notes on appetizers and entrées. Drinks were a little slow but when they finally made it to the table they were perfect. No one had any complaints about their food, I had the steak and it was seasoned and cooked perfectly! I would have never thought I'd find a meal like this, in a location like this, but if you find yourself in the llama lot, like I did, check out the Kitchen at Atomic read more

Atomic Kitchen I visited the "Zagat" website to see if any new or interesting restaurants may have opened recently. I was surprised that Atomic Liquor opened "The Kitchen at Atomic". The Zagat website offers an image of the restaurant interior. It is accurate, and better than one that I can offer. (I am providing an exterior image.) It's a sizable dining room. There are a lot of hard surfaces, so I imagine the place can get noisy when filled. Seat placement is not packed too tightly; and while not plush, it is comfortable. There is outdoor seating, as well. A "sample" menu is available on the business's website. However, the menu apparently is subject to regular change--perhaps to prevent the menu from being too predictable, and provide regulars a reason to come in more often. For my meal, I had one of the evening's specials: Tagliatelle; braised pork shoulder ragu, Pomodoro, Parmesan Reggiano ($20). It was an a la carte main course--no sides. Perception of portion size is subjective, but for my purposes, it was "just right". However, if you are dining as a group, I can see how the serving size will encourage the purchase of add-ons--such as salads or appetizers. The pasta was prepared very well--al dente. The sauce was prepared from scratch; it was a bit tart, versus sweet. The protein content was adequate--more to accentuate the dish, rather than be a featured ingredient. All in all, a very good dish, presented well. With the kitchen running so well, I was surprised how uneven the service was in the front of the house. I ate alone at the bar, and it wasn't too busy. It took a long while for the bartender to notice and acknowledge me. Service remained spotty after that. I took the opportunity to observe staff at work, and I began to wonder if service levels would fall if the restaurant had been busier. Atomic Liquor After dinner, I decided to have a drink at Atomic Liquor. I like the ambiance and the history. I like the available selection of craft beers. However, service was spotty here, too. Maybe I visited on an "off" night--so don't feel put off. The first meal I had was nice enough that I will make a follow-up visit. kitchenatatomic.vegas read more

Came in on Friday night after seeing this place had good reviews. Upon arrival, the place was busy. There was confusion between the staff if there was a private party. They settled on no and took our (5 of us) food order. After 45 minutes, they informed us that they had no burgers, although half of our order, was not burgers. They did offer to comp our 2 cocktails, however, it took them 45 minutes to realize they were out of burgers. We were all starving and we could've gone somewhere else in the 45 minutes it took for them to realize they had no burgers. Extremely disappointing from a place we had high hopes for. 0/10 read more

Full Disclosure: I came here anticipating that this was the Atomic Liquors saloon of yore. Turns out, I wasn't far off, but the 'Kitchen' boasts a full dinner menu (which looks really decent) and a more upscale bar that still keeps things down to earth. I had the Gunslinger and it was delicious. The bartender said it was their most ordered cocktail, and I can see why. It's whiskey-forward, but the rest of the flavors blend so well. It doesn't come across as cloyingly sweet, but it does drink quite nicely. The flambeed orange zest was the perfect touch. If I come back here for dinner, I'll definitely update the review, but the food looked pretty solid. For a hipster-level bar scene without the pretentiousness, though, it wins major marks. read more

The Kitchen at Atomic - The Gunslinger. Very tasty! - New American Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I haven't stopped by The Kitchen at Atomic since before the shut down. I am happy to see one of Las Vegas' oldest bars keeping up with public safety. You can enter from the just Kitchen side or from the Bar side. We were here for second dinner AKA when the first place didn't fill you up. Place was not so busy in the dine in area but the bar not at the kitchen was pretty busy- everyone separated at least six feet. We sat inside just us and were served by many nice women. I was seated with a view of the kitchen and it was cool seeing the lone chef whip up our dinner: garbage fries and the spicy chicken sandwich. Food was good. I liked the garbage fries a lot which was drowning in cheese sauce. We had a couple cocktails and beer. Granted we were the only ones in the kitchen side of things the staff was amazing. Just the communication on how they'd like us to enjoy things safely was really nice. I've dined out a few times since this current phase of things started and give them a great nod to communicating safety in a casual yet effective way that isn't invasive. Manners go a long way. The chef even came out to ask how everything was. We were literally there sharing an app, splitting an entree, and only having one drink each and we had an amazing experience from entering to leaving. I wish everyone working well and I wish Atomic well during this time. They definitely deserve all the business they can get. Thank you for making us feel safe while dining at your establishment during such an unprecedented time. read more

As some of you are aware, I love brunch. Quite possibly one of the most important meals of the week. Today's choice is The Kitchen at Atomic. http://kitchenatatomic.vegas. This is the next door eatery from http://atomic.vegas Atomic Liquors. This is one of the oldest bars in Las Vegas. It is named this way because people used to take their high ball cocktails to the roof to watch the atomic weapons being tested in the desert. Today I tried several dishes. The monkey bread and prosciutto didn't really do it for me. It was very dense and the meat was making me feel like it's an add on. They redeemed themselves with the Jameson whiskey bread pudding and pork belly. The fresh cream was amazing. I was also sitting on their patio listening to 80s hair band music and then a nice Jazz trio. Amanda is the Hostesss with all the information in the world on the phone and Courtney, a fellow traveler, was my server. Her recommendations were spot on. Enjoy ! One slight tip for sitting outside, don't sit at the table furthest towards the back fence. Had to fend off some pesky flies. Apparently they too could smell the whiskey bread pudding ! read more

I don't walk away from a meal feeling like it was worth the $ in 2024, this place was INSANELY GOOD

Found this A bomb on yelp. My boo and I were heading to Fremont St and this joint looked good. We walked in and were greeted by Amber. Amber checked IDs and escorted us to our table, Amber also provided water from a water shaped wine bottle. I liked that the hostess seated us and provided water. Crystal our server came over and took our order. For an appetizer we ordered the Mac and cheese, the only downside to the Mac and cheese is that it's pretty tiny, so order two! My lady ordered the Atomic Burger and I ordered the ChIcken sandwich. Along with a Dead guy ale and lemon drop. The drinks and food were created quickly. During the short wait I appreciated the windows that allowed the kitchen to be viewed. The boys in the kitchen were moving and shaking. My chicken sandwich was solid and tasty for 13$. I had a couple bites of the boos burger... I was also impressed by the taste of the beef. I think we spent about 60$ before tip. If you are looking for an upper scale, none casino dining environment, farm to table style near the Mob Museum this is your place. read more

This is my 5th time here. I really like this place. The atmosphere is nice and open, it's not too loud, the lighting is kinda romantic at night. I've sat outside, I've sat at a table, a booth and the bar. I like the bar. Cushioned nicely by my knees, comfy chairs and purse hooks. Service has always been nice. They have an excellent drink selection with good craft beer choices, wine and cocktails. They have a really nice food menu! Of note: if you're on a low carb, vegetarian or paleo diet, you'll do well here. Tonight I had the wedge salad and hanger skirt steak (sugar free). Other half had Brussels sprouts and wings. Everything was prepared to order, flavorful and delicious. This place is just a short walk east from the hustle and bustle of the Fremont Experience. I've never seen it crazy busy, so if there's a long wait Downtown, I highly recommend taking a walk. Adjacent is Atomic Liquor bar, but it IS separate. They have outdoor seating with heaters in cold months. Good for groups. No outside food or drink or smoking. This place is great choice for a truly memorable Downtown e *UPDATE as of June 2020 They changed their menu! They changed their Chef! So disappointed! Burgers, salads, wings??? Seriously?! Changed from 5 to 3 stars. I understand COVID has devastated local businesses, but at what cost?! This is now bar food caliber :( read more

Since this place opened I had been looking forward to checking it out. I came in on a Saturday night for a friends bday. We were seated quickly and our server was friendly and attentive for the most part. The food is where my main disappointment came from. To start there weren't too many vegetarian options to chose from which kind of surprised me considering it's downtown. The menu was very small and limited in general. Either way I decided to order the vegetarian pot pie. When it came out it looked beautiful, but the flavor was so bland and boring. I think the best thing in the dish was the tomatoes. Also back to the service part - our food all came out at different times which I get for a group is somewhat normal, but the last two meals didn't come out until way later after everyone else was already finished with their meals. For the restaurant only being about 1/3 full I thought that was pretty off. I'm not sure I'd ever come back here again. I think I'll just stick to the bar side from now on. read more

I love the concept and space at K@A! The menu is refined, the space is modern, the crowd is grown-hipster. I've been by twice and the beer menu is a thing of wonder (the Chai on draft is perfect for fall!), but food execution seems to vary based on who's in the kitchen. I love seeing beef tartare on a menu, and this one with cured egg yolk was sufficient but would benefit from a bit more seasoning. The Mexican-influenced Caesarette with grilled cactus and corn nuts was a surprise hit, and I really like the lime in the dressing. An entree-size version would make a great vegetarian dinner! Props for having a spaghetti squash shakshuka and a veggie burger for those who are unable to eat meat. Chicken thighs are the cut I work with most at home, and I really liked the gravy and chicken-fried mushrooms used in the preparation here, but it was a touch salty and the cuts of meat were oddly small and rubbery in texture. My guy opted for the Surf & Turf and the giant tiger prawns were easily the star of this dish, while the tenderloin was a touch tough. We shared the PBJ Bread Pudding, made with brioche. The flavor profile successfully nailed the nutty-sweet balance, but the hot buttered sherry sauce was unnecessary and overpowering. Perhaps it's because we went in right at their 4PM opening, but the dessert was also cold in the middle as if it'd just been taken from the refrigerator. We were informed that they were training new kitchen staff, which may explain some of the missteps above. I really am a fan of the menu and the space, and will be revisiting to try other dishes (specifically the wings and scallops!) in the hopes that the execution will be a bit tighter than my last visit. read more

This is swiftly becoming my go-to bar downtown and here is why: The place always has a good crowd and vibe The drinks are creative and they have a very deep variety of alcohol. The small but we'll executed menu is fantastic! The bartenders are proud of their drink creations and will engage in a discussion of them. Prices are upscale but not outrageous. My favorite menu item is the decadent shrimp cheese sticks. About an inch around it is a combination that works surprisingly well. Their hamburger is one of the best in the city and you choose what goes on it from a list of toppings. Definitely worth a visit. read more

A great place for good friends to hangout and enjoy some good drinks, conversations and some good food. The historic Atomic bar has always consistently been a go to hangout for me and my friends.

HUH??? Anyone who knows the Vegas bar scene knows the Atomic, the oldest and most iconic dive bar in the Fremont badlands with a solid selection of craft beers and bourbon. So what gives? They convert the neighboring mechanics shop to a separate, freestanding restaurant, The Kitchen at the Atomic that has nothing to do with the original Atomic Liquors. Some millennial urbanites idea of a bar; polished concrete, glass, pompous mixed drinks and trendy food (you know, truffle this, foie that, brioche, miso, yuzu, demi). Ignoring my disgust, the food is OK by Vegas' very high standards. Lulu's soft pretzel, a warm, chewy pretzel roll with beer mustard (whole grain mustard) and spicy beer cheese (oh yeah), not traditional but satisfying. Mama Johns Mac Bites aren't as successful. Basically lobster mac & cheese balls atop an excessive amount of gruyere béchamel. Extremely rich and creamy but the flavor of the lobster is lost. The burger, thick, free formed patty, well seasoned, cooked to temp, A-OK. The addition of thick cut siracha bacon and pickled jalapeños and a fried egg (toppings sold separately, $1 - $2 each) made it sing though a regular bun would have been preferred to the brioche that rapidly got soaked with the burgers juices. Finally the rib eye crown. This is the best deal in the place. A grilled rib cap for $15. Tender and fatty in all the right ways. Aggressively seasoned. Roasted carrots a nice touch. Great dish to share. Very friendly local service. Inexpensive food prices. Think of it as another bar hop stop (i.e. drink at the Atomic, soak it up here and move on). read more

Although Atomic Liquors has existed since 1952 it is far more recently that The Kitchen at Atomic has emerged as a downtown destination, its migration from Bar Food to creative American Cuisine begun by Justin Kingsley Hall and now carried on by Chef Jackson Stamper since February. Only open for two years, the debut of Carson Kitchen in June of 2014 expanding DTLV's idea of what dining could be and giving Atomic owner Lance Johns an idea to open his own eatery, it is alongside the famous dive-bar where guests used to watch nuclear testing from the roof that The Kitchen is located, a 21+ age-limit noteworthy for both spaces as a result of the adjoining patio. Devoid of televisions and instead entertaining diners with music ranging from The Beach Boys to Aerosmith, a widely-spaced interior nicely designed with big booths and tables, it is by pleasant hostesses and an educated staff that diners are welcomed from Wednesday to Sunday, the all-new menu concisely divided into four sections plus Dessert tucked in the back of an extensive Cocktail and Spirit list. Best classified as "market-driven" in its inspiration, Stamper's five years as Executive Chef at New York's Employees Only gifting him with an idea of how to introduce a Bar or Speakeasy crowd to boldly flavored Food with a focus on ingredients, it is after selecting one of several Cocktails including a smoky "Percussion Gun" or Tiki-inspired "Life's a Beach" that ordering ensues, nearly half the items Vegetable focused and several able to be made Vegan. Combining "Small Plates" and "For The Table" as Appetizers, though "Sides" such as Heirloom Carrots charred with Spices also may qualify, it was alongside those Carrots that three dishes started things off, both Sugar Snap and English Peas singing of Spring atop tangy Yogurt Dressing while grilled Beans greater than a foot in length performed beautifully as a base to medium-potency Feta and Tomatoes roasted to concentrate their sweetness. Only getting to Meat after three plates, melting nuggets of Marrow liberated from the Bone and offered alongside shades of red both sweet and earthy, it was returning to Produce that two additional plates arrived, squeaky Halloumi unfortunately a bit overwhelmed by Mint but Chef Stamper's Cauliflower Steak absolutely brilliant in terms of flavor with a bevy of textures equally prone to please Vegetarians and Carnivores. Already celebrating a 14oz Bone-in Pork Chop as something of a signature, the use of Rum in Brine as well as Sauce adding depth to both tender Flesh and grilled Rabe, those seeking Steak can consider Creekstone Ribeye sold at $3.50 per ounce if dining as a group, or the 10oz Hanger cooked expertly and served atop bitter Vegetables brightened by Burnt Orange Vinaigrette. Hoping to eventually differentiate the Restaurant from its famous Bar, a work in progress that may become further muddled as Jackson and Mr. Johns plan to debut a separate menu of patio plates this summer, those seeking a bit of whimsy right now should not pass on Desserts including Chocolate Cake enriched by Beer and boozy Cherries or a Fried Apple Pie that eats light like Funnel Cake but with lots of subtle nuances thanks to aromatic Whipped Cream and ground Pecans. ****1/2: Although Justin Kingsley Hall deserves thanks for helping to elevate The Kitchen at Atomic beyond Burgers and Wings, it is from new Chef Jackson Stamper that the menu has transitioned to produce-focused seasonal plates that equally warrant the attention of not just downtown denizens but diners across the Valley. read more

Great outdoor seating area when its not too hot out. Drinks are good too. Food is OK but I only tried a couple appetizers (tacos and fries).

I visited on a Saturday night at 8 PM without reservations with the Fiery BBFF. We were extra bored, hungry and found ourselves at the recently opened Kitchen at Atomic looking to smash our boredom. Service: 4.5/5 The hostess was great. She asked how the night was going and if we wanted a table inside or outside as the weather was lovely. Our awesome waiter Justin Z. was very attentive to us from beginning to end. After discovering this was our first visit, he mentioned that the restaurant use to be a Garage and was featured in the movie "Casino" He was helpful with telling the how the servings worked with the the mac n cheese bites we were eyeing (5 pieces) He checked on us frequently and kept our Tito's and gingers coming. Shout out to the waiter who we mistook for Justin after our 3rd Tito's. He had the same stylish haircut and beard, friendly attitude but was wearing glasses. He took our order for the 4th Tito's without hesitating as if he was assigned to our table himself. Fantastic...lol Food: 4.0/5.0 On our quest to Atom smash our hunger, we were either going with stacking up a burger with their awesome additions (see pics) or going with a more traditional dish in the "main" section. I stacked up a burger with horseradish cheddar + sriracha bacon and of course a fried egg. All additions were so tasty and the fried egg was cooked perfect to the point where not too much yolk flies out after the first bite. Very impressed, with this tasty burger. Waffle fries were the perfect compliment. The Mama Johns Mac Bites were tasty , but only came out in 5 small pieces. 3 more small pieces to get to 8 would be perfect. Value:4.0/5.0 Our burgers started at $9 and each addition is either a $1 or $2.. The high quality additions were fantastic. (see pic) They had 7 different cheeses to pick from & if you've been following me you know that cheese = bae. Our Tito's and gingers were $7 and mixed well. Ambiance: 5.0/5.0 The courtyard outside has long tables to accommodate large parties. (10+) and there's plenty of seating inside the "Garage" with additional outdoor seating on the side. The vibe and energy is great. Great contemporary industrial feel in the garage with still some old school Vegas flavor and history. The Atomic Bar, is a stumble next door and is perfect place to park for more drinks after dinner. Summary: We came in hangry and bored, and left full and recharged for a Saturday night downtown because of the great food, excellent service and vibe. I look forward to heading back and either trying something off the main side, or stacking another burger with excellent cheese combos. Afterwards we headed over to the historic Atomic bar that's connected to the kitchen, but that's another yelp tale. =) read more

One of the great things about living in this day and age--the day and age of Yelp--is going to a town full of very touristy things, staying in the place full of tourists, but being able to suss out the really great finds. Such was the case with this restaurant. I was staying a few blocks away, and saw this pop up on the Yelp app as a hot new business. I was intrigued, but it was definitely not part of the main tourist section. If that had been my only reason for the trip--touristing--I would have never made it in. But lucky for me, I was there for more Yelpy reasons, and was able to get away from it all and chase down this place. On the outside, you can see the story of two Atomics. The venerable old Atomic Liquors has been in that spot for ages. AGES. And the building has been maintained but still has the patina. Next door at the new kitchen, however, you have a new shine, a new patio, and it looks slick. Which is not to say it's not old. Apparently, it's an old mechanic's garage that had been there since earlier in the twentieth century. When it closed, Atomic bought the space with the idea of adding food to the booze side of things, spent a year remodeling, and opened a garage-esque restaurant as an homage. The old steel beams still hold it up, though they had to pour a new foundation. Inside it's polished. It's nice but not fancy by any means. And over time, it will take on more character. I was greeted by Hannah at the door, who was sweet and suggested I take my party of one to the bar. There I was greeted by Chase, who was in the midst of serious ice making. They take their ice seriously, and he does the cooler trick to freeze clear ice, then has a fancy copper contraption to make the ice cubes into perfect spheres. I was mesmerized. The menu is bifurcated into two schools of thought. On the one side, you've got bar food. Fried things, apps, shareable things. On the other, you've got nice, plated items. And it really is the kind of space that can pull both off. Back that up with an already proven bar program and you've got the makings of a flexible spot. I went with the bar side of things. I started with a mini hot dog trio, which was actually a sizeable plate. I liked the Chicago dog best--Detroit dogs aren't my favorite, and the third (Columbian?) was topped with an adorable quail egg. On Chase's suggestion I got the burger and added avocado. They brand the bun with their logo which is a nice tough, and it was served with a big ol' pickle spear. They have a lot of options (21 by my count) to add on to your burger, which is kinda cool--you can certainly make it your own. It was super juicy, and although I don't love horseradish, the sauce was smooth enough to complement the whole thing. I wish I hadn't been in such a hurry to catch my flight, because I could have stayed for a while. Everyone was super cool, and there was a lot more menu to try. Total chill spot, probably will get rowdier on the weekends, but it's just far enough outside downtown that you're getting some good folks in the door, drawn to good drinks and a food program that looks like it will take hold. read more

Had an excellent brunch at Kitchen at Atomic. Started with some great cocktails Not Your Average Joe and Foreign Kiss. If you like coffee based cocktails you have to try Not Your Average Joe. I loved it. We tried the Elote Hush Puppies to start and had Chicken Fried Steak and Breakfast Burrito for our mains. Food was wonderful. Service was great too. Can't wait to go back. Recently I saw from a friend on Insta that they had a Shrimp and Grits brunch special. Unfortunately I was out of town that weekend. Please bring that back and post when you do! read more

Came back here years later. Had the pork belly PB&J and the French Dip with french fries and the harissa carrots. Everything was sssooooo0o0o0o0oooooooo good. Pork belly + house-made peanut butter & strawberry jam + brussel sprout slaw + brioche bun = delicious delicious goodness. Be brave and get it. Still have a good soundtrack and amazingly inexpensive bottles of wine and good staff. Love that I could've swapped out the fries for any side (server even let me choose the delish harissa carrots as a side) for $2. Worth it, because the fries portion is huuuuuuuuge. Only qualm is about variety. Please add more desserts and cocktails. Lots of spirit forward cocktails with no tequila (one mezcal option, the Garden Mistress ....... d-e-l-i-c-i-o-us) or vodka options is not ideal! And only had two desserts, which was a pineapple tamale, a pear tart, and bread pudding. Also when we wanted another dipping sauce for the fries beside ketchup (like a ranch or anything else), only aioli was around which was still delicious. read more

We had brunch for the first time and we were pleased with our experience. This place is connected by courtyard to Atomic bar which is a really cool place as well. The dining area inside and outside has a nice, ambiance and an open feel and we choose to sit outside on the patio even though it was cold buy very sunny and nice. Service was excellent. Our waitress made sure everything was good and checked on us when needed. The menu is simple and everything looks tasty and not too over the top. We tried several dishes. They didn't have Cigar City but the waitress recommended this sandwich called Pork belly PB sandwich and it was amazing! We also liked their Beefy Monkey Bread $8 " featuring three caramelized Rolls with Prosciutto. Their thick cut bacon was perfectly done and only $4. My least fave is Smoked Trout $16. It was a cold dish. The food and cocktails overall were delicious! I love that all of the food is locally sourced and sustainable. Such a great atmosphere, food, drinks, and service! read more

Food was ok. The cheese steak gave me the runs though. Service was lacking as it took 20-30 minutes for the waitress to come by. Honestly just go somewhere else. read more

Perfect for a later dinner at the bar. After cocktails at Atomic Liquors, dinner at The Kitchen seemed like a logical choice. Weeknights seem to be pretty mellow in the dining room so we sat at the bar. The bartender made me some sort of mezcal cocktail to keep the night going. It was delicious. Smoky, yet refreshing. I loved the burger. We split it and got the onions and cheese on the side because my friend can't have dairy and doesn't like onions. I know, I know. I don't know why we are friends either. All that aside, the burger was delicious and juicy. The bun was soft and didn't fall apart. The fries were thick cut. Loved. I got the chance to chat up Chef Kingsley and I love his passion for the menu too. He has some cool plans for dessert that I can't wait to experience. We skipped the bread pudding this time but next time it's going down. read more

That awkward feeling when you're E you had an amazing time and phenomenal meal your FIRST time at a restaurant days ago and decide to frequent them on your Friday before a show, to be asked at the bar, after ordering dinner for a credit card because it's St. Patrick's Day, and "there have been a lot of walkouts". Really NOT a good look. They literally handed the gentleman next to me an entire bottle of Booker's whiskey to "smell" and never asked for ANYTHING. And by the way, both my appetizer and entree came within 11 minutes of each other and I have no utensils, condiments or plates. As I say this, they came for the couple of bros, next to me. The plates, and napkins, that is. I am really forgiving because I work in the industry, and I came to the bar specifically to tip a bartender working st pats because I know what it's like. The bartender realized 20 minutes later after I hadn't started eating, I had no silverware. She remarked as she dropped it off, "All you have to to do is say something..." I boxed my food. I paid my bill. I tipped. I'm disappointed. #seriousfail Update: recently received some criticism regarding my review from a Jacob. Three days prior, was my first time at Atomic and I had a great experience. So much so, I asked to compliment the chef on my steak. My second experience on St. Patrick's Day was horrible. And if someone behind the bar gets in trouble, they needed to. The bartenders there need to learn not to racially profile customers. read more

Unexpected, upscale Brooklyn vibe in North Vegas (you'd never get that much space in Brooklyn). Spacious, modern, clean, comfortable, "open" kitchen concept, large bar, good seating... Although menu is limited, the food is great and portions are large. Brunch for five adults came out to $99. The Hushpuppies are highly recommended as an appetizer. Just too bad they don't have specialty coffee (cappuccino/latte etc). Mom was happy with her artisanal blueberry mimosa. Good to know before you visit: 21+ only!!! No kids allowed. The booths are 1-step elevated in a rather gray/black monochromatic color scheme. My 73 yr old dad took a nasty fall coming out of the booth - he didn't see and mis-stepped. So, if you have some elderly in your party, maybe request a regular table. Just a heads up. read more

My wife and I visited the restaurant on a Saturday early evening. We came early so it wasn't too busy yet and were seated quickly. We ordered five items for our dinner. Things I loved: Big shout out to our server Justin, he was excellent. He had a great sense of humor, he refreshed our plates and clean out the table promptly. We enjoyed his recommendations. His service was one of the best I had in all my restaurant visits. Elote Hushpuppies - This was a great start to our dinner. The hushpuppies were light and flavorful and the cilantro creme and the lime seasoning gave it a very clean and refreshing taste to the dish. Grilled Argentinian Red Shrimp - when the food runner brought out the dish we smelled the wonderful aroma of the shrimps. The shrimps were huge and succulent and the beans and sausage were delicious. Half-Chicken and Succotash - the fried chicken was crispy but not greasy. The BBQ sauce was yummy and we asked Justin for more. The succotash was sweet and refreshing. The saltiness of the fried chicken and the sweetness from the succotash struck a nice balance. Ratatouille - I love ratatouille I saw it on the menu and I had to order it. The side dish didn't disappoint. It was one of the best Ratatouilles I have ever had. I know it's just ratatouille but the vegetables were properly cooked, all of them were tendered but not mushy. All the sweetness of the vegetables worked so well together. Bread Pudding - I loved the texture of the bread pudding. Crunchy on the outside and soft inside. It topped with a nice scope of vanilla ice-cream. The contrasting elements of the dish made it fun to eat. The warm bread pudding vs. the cold ice-cream, crunchy pudding vs. the silky smooth ice-cream. I guessed I loved everything on our first visit and definitely will be back. read more

This place was THE SHIT - and I don't throw that saying around lightly. We went in with no expectations and had an absolute blast. Service and playlist were on point and then...the food came We were blown away by the flavors of every, single dish. The vegetables were so "bright" for lack of a better adjective...and don't even get me started on whatever magic was over the tomatoes. Holt CRAP! DiShes were familiar, yet interesting and new (clams w fermented chili peppers, caprese w seared cheese, branzino, etc.). Everything was prepared peeerfectly...and if you don't get the hangar steak with fennel you're an idiot. Pleasant. Different. Humble. read more

The Kitchen @ Atomic sits a couple blocks East of the Fremont Street Experience. Venture past the chaos into a welcoming restaurant and bar on Fremont / 10th street, serving food that's quite ambitious as it is delicious :) Not one to pass up Foie Gras on the menu, you'll fare well with the Foie Gras Toast : Toasted Bread, Fruit Compote, Roasted Seeds & Nuts. Excellent Foie Gras, pairing well with the sweets and seeds...recommended! Also try the MMM : Mocha Oatmeal Stout Mole, Beef Cheek, Seasonal Pickles, Brown Butter Masa Dumplings. Nice Mole, fair amount of heat with chunks of tender beef. Dumplings more like a cornbread in consistency and taste. Recommended! And don't miss the Boneless Hot Pig in Winter : Crispy Pork in Afghan Stew, Peppers, Garlic, Greens, Cilantro & Onions. Tender, delicious pork with a thin, crispy skin. Very elaborate dish that works well :) For dessert, you'll be hard pressed to find a better bread pudding...if this raises a brow, give the Whiskey Bread Pudding a whirl : Griddled Whiskey Bread Pudding, Smoked Sea Salt Caramel & Cardamom Whipped Cream, Outstanding bread pudding, great consistency and sweetness, subtle whisky flavor with a hint of salt. Enjoy! read more

Great atmosphere for drinks. Sadly the night that we were there, they were out of several beers and we had very limited choices! Food: we ordered a Steak Sandwich which I was not impressed and a cheeseburger which was really good and cook to perfection! read more

My party of 6 wasn't allowed due to Covid requirements. We were told, max party of 5. Then these people showed up. Apparently they were exempt from the rule. I later found out that one of those people owned the place or something. Way to set an example. read more

My boyfriend and I made a reservation for our anniversary and as we were about to order, they said we had to leave since we weren't 21+ It's very unprofessional for a business to not clarify to every customer that they have to be 21+ You would think that they would mention that when making the reservation.. but I wasted my time and drove far because they failed to mention the most important part about their restaurant. read more

Cutting some slack because of Covid 19. Front door guy was a gem to deal with and a true restaurant pro. Once we say we sort of felt forgotten about and noticed that others who entered after us were served before us. We approached the door guy who sent a waitress our way. Chicken fingers were very good and the place is very nice. I'll spot them the Covid 19 this time. read more

This place is amazing. I'd definitely come back. They have local prices (my shakshouka brunch dish was $13 and a great portion and my bottle of moscato + fresh OJ was only $25). The place itself is really hip and it's connected by courtyard to one of the coolest local bars in town, Atomic. If I came for dinner, I'd get the steak tartare for sure. I loved my brunch dish though and the staff was very friendly. read more

Fun fact alert! This place was in the movie Casino and it was a gas station that was made to look like it was located back east. Today it's a sexy bar & restaurant with garage doors that open to Freemont street which makes it that much more fun! People watching is epic down here! To the drinks and food. I'd like to say I had way too much to drink here and it's because every drink on their menu sounds delicious and they are. My man loved the chicken wings which come with a pepperoni waffle with this blue cheese mousse thingy. The presentation is also very playful. The hot dog trio was delicious but I prefer my dogs with lots of grill marks. The caesar salad was my least favorite item with a weak dressing and bitter greens and the highlight of the evening was a fresh and warm soft pretzel that comes with spicy beer mustard and smoked beer cheese. So decadent and worth every bite! The desserts were ok, nothing memorable. Loved the space, ambiance and service so we'll definitely be back to try some of their other menu items and get that pretzel again! read more

My partner and I ordered the hush puppy appetizer, the torta sandwich, and a side of new red potatoes. Everything was yummy! The hush puppies were crunchy and a little spicy and the steak in the torta was heavenly. The potatoes needed a little kick, or maybe butter and salt. Everything tasted very fresh. read more
