Our bartender, Luther, was kind, knowledgeable and fun. We waited at the door to be seated for quite awhile though, so we just walked up to the bar.
The cocktails are hand crafted using house made syrup and mixes. I had a Paloma and a Barrel-Aged Margarita. At $7 a pint, the beer was a great value and was ICE cold.
The beans were made in house, they were thick and delicious and the rice was good too and had a few surprise corn kernels in it which gave a good pop of texture. Service was okay and the food was okay, being brought and served in plastic to-go. The pool tank was very cool but was a mere blip while going down the slide. He raved about the flavor of the beef and wanted more of them.

My husband had the crispy tacos which he said were the best he’s had. I had the Sopa de Tortilla which was very flavorful and had a great ratio of broth to chicken and rice. I’m still dreaming of that smoky, roasted, slightly spicy flavor and the tortilla chips that come with were warm, thin, crispy and perfectly salted. We ordered the fire roasted salsa for starter, and although it’s not free ($5), it is worth EVERY penny. /rebates/&.com252fShowUserReviews-g45963-d91828-r11202910-GoldenNuggetLasVegas-LasVegasNevada.
