Durango Lodge

Stopped in to have a drink and decided we were hungry. The drinks were good. The food was great! Music was good. The waitstaff was amazing! Very attentive. Only thing I'd change are the table sizes. There wasn't enough room for food AND drinks AND condiments so we had to use a chair. Other than that, everything was good. Overall I'd definitely go again.

Price is might be a little bit steep,,, but the attitude in service of the bartenders working,, Surely,,,,makes up for that! Great atmosphere like old school wooden Lodge!

Was my first time to this location, lost a little, won a little, lots of locals that were all in high spirits and drinking spirits. Alex was the main guy, very nice, very attentive. I think her name is Asia, very bubbly, nice style, also helped me out. There was a new bartender Danica, she was cool too. Had a Chicken Bacon Quesadilla, nice crisp to the tortilla, nicely seasoned chicken. Overall my experience was good, gambled for a good amount of time, didn’t lose too much, and had a good time. I will be back, it was very laid back, and it’s close to home.

Great way to spend a saturday night!

Angel is a great bartender & reason for the 5 star. Really it would be 4 because the pool tables need some love and the balls were sticky and old. Not a fan of them sticking to the table. Other than that- super chill atmosphere & great hangout.

Been several times, food was excellent every time. Burger, Fish & Chips, Wraps, Shrimp and Salads all tasted great. Cocktails made Wonderful, never to strong or to weak, made Great every time!!! Staff is always friendly and polite and helpful and professional. It’s a few minutes off the Strip but great for locals. Prices are pretty good also.

Good food but i wish they would let you order over the phone and pick up later.

Cajun pasta is delicious. The bartenders are friendly and attentive!

Average gaming bar experience nothing too special to note about this property. The pay tables are decent compared to some other places but 50c minimum bet is required for most games. The lodge promotions are basically nonexistent there was no signage of any events, points have little return, etc... which is worse than most other bars. What evens it out is they serve decent food for a reasonable price. As far as the service is concerned the bartender was alright got me a drink and served the food did their job requirements so again average. Overall a decent experience but wouldn't visit again there is much better competition.

Durango Lodge - 4 stars Filed under: A damn fine night in the southwest shadows. There she was--Durango Lodge. A well-lit sign glowing steady in the dark like a promise kept. No neon flicker, just clean light guiding the thirsty home. A Saturday evening thick with the scent of spilled secrets and good whiskey. I hadn't darkened the doorstep in years, even though she lives just down the street from me. But fate's a funny dame. Sometimes she sends you a sign... sometimes she sends you Amanda and Allie. Two bartenders. Sharper than a straight razor and twice as smooth. They ran that bar like a speakeasy of old--no frills, no fluff, just classic service, clean pours, and conversation that stuck to the ribs. I slid onto a stool beside a friend--she ordered a lemon drop cocktail that could make a grown man weep. Me? I kept it simple: two pints of Guinness and enough Jameson to make Saint Patrick raise a brow--seven shots total, with a finale of three served slow in a rocks glass like a jazz solo. No pretense. Just warmth. The crowd? Respectable. The vibe? Electric but easy. And the staff? Immaculate. Amanda and Allie weren't just bartenders--they were anchors. The kind who make you feel like a regular even if your face ain't been seen in years. They checked in, kept the flow right, and made sure the night never lost its rhythm. It ain't often you stumble into a joint where the service is the star. But thanks to those two, Durango Lodge felt less like a bar and more like home with better lighting. Why not five stars? Well, even Casablanca had its shadows. The place could use a touch-up here or there--nothing major, just enough to match the polish of the people behind the bar. Still... If you're looking for a nightcap that comes with soul, stop by Durango. Tell 'em the stranger in the corner with the slow Jameson sent you. - K.E.Y., just another silhouette passing through.

Bri is the BADDESSSSTTTT! A vibe 10/10 would recommend. If you wanna stop by and have a great time, I suggest you do so on her shift. Ryan's also cool too

Alex went above and beyond making me feel at home! Sometimes gaming bars make you feel like an outsider! I'll make sure to return !

The bartender Bri is the worst in the world. Should be on a farm, not working in a bar. However, the food is amazing

Immediately welcomed coming through the doors. Sincere conversation starter from the bartender Ryan. Even though it was 1:30 in the morning he had a very positive and energetic vibe. As well as an attentive bartender. I definitely recommend coming to this bar for a late night outing if this guy is behind the bar. The experience tops all other bar interactions.

Mike, Eloy, Tiff, and Ryan are all AMAZING ! Great people with great energy. The service is top tier AND not only are they great serving they make the place worth staying extra. One of my favorite late places to go to. 10/10 recommend if you like late night bars with a chill vibe. Great for getting to know a lady or man over drinks.

Came here last Friday night/Saturday morning for a night out with my mom. It started out alright, bartender Ryan got us our drinks. But after that it was all down hill from there. He would disappear for 15-20 minutes at a time continuously, out drinks would sit empty for ridiculous amounts of time. Finally, we decided we had enough and were going to take off. My mom got up to use the restrooms before we let but came back quickly. She said the bartender was in there with a couple other guys doing drugs. We gathered out things and took off. Definitely won't be coming back.

Frequent here. For the great drinks and the chicken pasta. Add shrimp. Ambiance is good. And. Service is excellent.

Dani is the best bartender I've literally ever seen! She's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke and she's at the place she shines like a star! She was so funny and accommodating and made some great cocktails! I will definitely be coming back to see Dani and see if we can win some more money again! She's also a lucky charm btw lol! Definitely recommend, go see Dani, I found out she's the General Manager too so she's just an amazing boss lady! See you soon Dani!

Everything was good until the bartender put on a bunch of crappy loud AF rock songs and the worst whatever THAT song was ruining the old classics vibe I had going for my 72 year old Filipino mom dropping money on the machine celebrating her birthday. The tip glass was full and 20's were being dropped at a steady rate. Not to mention, we were obviously the coolest people in the bar. We brought it to life. When you have an establishment that caters to entertaining people and making sure they're having a good time so they stay there and continue to spend money - staff members should kind of take note of the "cool people" rolling in to have a good time and spend money. It's obvious who they are. It would be the 6 ft 8 Asian dude and the crew he is rolling with. PRO TIP: you want want to keep the cool people there because they bring more cool people. Those kind of Vegas locals spend money. They make places they're hanging out = repeat business because they are looking for low-key chill vibes. Yo, I'm not a "square". I'm a RL promoter/manager for bands and events. When I say the music sucked and was a vibe killer - this is coming from a professional not a Karen. Read a room Shannon! Will the old AF Asian lady at the machine like your music? Probably not. Was her head bobbing to the music her daughter put on the request box? Why yes it was! Normally before a bartender would put on THEIR music they check the 8 patrons in the place (4 of whom were together and obviously enjoying the music they paid for by singing & dancing) to see if anybody is playing songs. I mean a vibe switch from the Temptations and Tina Turner to um.. angry trailer park music is going to require a "Hey y'all want to play more music before I blast my stuff" because the customers come first. The drinks were watered down and the price was too high by a couple of dollars. Nachos were ok. The bartenders choice of music would be ok if I had a rail of a table but seriously - wtf?! Oh, because if they request songs from the app it pushes my songs back. That's not the point. The point is, customer service... wait to play your loud a$$ music until the old lady who is there to enjoy gaming and music while her daughter & grandson are singing, dancing, drinking, and playing pool leaves. ‍ Mom could only handle a few of Shannon's songs and then we had to roll out. Shannon enjoyed her music tho, she was singing word for word. Apparently, this Gemini bartender doesn't understand that you don't play with a Taurean's music. I should probably wear my Taurus hat so I can make a point when I come into a situation - "don't play with my music or food or ambience." It's not like I leave my batcave very often. I don't like most people (because they're rude / inconsiderate) or their choice in music - because it sounds like bloppity blop trash. I still had my $5 on the player waiting for my songs when I left. Ugh. I DID get crappy about it; I made it be known the music sucked and that's why we were leaving. It seemed the staff didn't care much. Too bad. That's how you lose business and reading these recent reviews makes me sad. This used to be a weekly Friday night hangout spot for years. Oh well. I'll take my radio flyer memories with a side of tequila sunrise at a different pub. Apparently, my son is the.same.way. when it comes to his music too. The situation became a family bonding moment where we all laughed because the boy and I are petty AF when it comes to our music and we ARE willing to be d!cks about it. Somebody has to be. Good music saves lives and we are humanitarians. #facts Won't be going there again. I'm not a fan of lightweight drinks. Should have gotten a beer.

The bartender Nevada was too worried about flirting with other people instead of paying attention to patron I gambled and was still charged for my drink places a joke don't go here. Oh also the food sucks.

Dani, the bartender, is very attentive and makes great drinks! The food is way above what you normally get in a gaming bar. The gambling is pretty standard for a bar - you win some, you lose some. I was a newbie at this bar but felt welcomed from the moment I entered the door. I'll definitely be back again soon.

They serve amazing food and their bar is full. I came here to watch the Chargers game. It was full of Chargers fans. It was fun! Good times and good vibes!

Bartenders were super rude & made me feel very uncomfortable, probably should have thought about the fact that i came in with four guys that were gambling and would have tipped well. We all left without tipping anything.

This lounge was my absolute favorite place. I love all the bartenders and the food is absolutely amazing. Yesterday while I was playing a machine and enjoying a drink I was talking with the bartender who just got in for her shift. She was asking all the guests if they needed anything and trying to also appease me which I thought was very sweet. In walks a little gal with curly hair, a giant ring wedding ring and a LVuitton purse. She says in a very perturbed voice with a horrendous attitude, "That table has been dirty for an hour." The bartender got frantic and walked away from the bar where ALL the business was. I just watched the interaction for couple of minutes. I then asked if she was the owner and she confirmed. I said I would no longer be going to that location because of the way she just spoke to her employees. In fact, any lodge this person owns is no longer a go to for me, unfortunately. If an owner of a business thinks it appropriate to speak to an employee that way IN FRONT of customers, I'd hate to see how they are treated behind closed doors. Lastly, I never noticed the single dirty table. Not once. I had been there an hour myself.

I'm only giving them 1 star because they say this was a New York steak? Looked more like a 3-4 oz breakfast steak....I buy breakfast steaks at the grocery store bigger than the one we were served tonight! They should be ashamed of themselves to serve something so small & charge almost $20 for it ! When we spend money, we want to feel like we're getting our money's worth & dinner tonight was a total rip off ! I couldn't even find the Swiss cheese on my patty melt... We also got a Caesars salad & I couldn't taste any anchovy...all I tasted was zesty lemon! Who puts lemon on a Caesar salad? It's not supposed taste citrusy... The whole meal was a total disappointment... don't think we'll be back! $70 & a tip & I hear my husband in the kitchen now looking for something to eat!! Save your money people...there's better places to go where you'll be full when you leave!! LOWER YOUR PRICES IF YOUR PORTIONS ARE GOING TO BE THAT SMALL!!

Came in last week and was just not impressed... the bartender was very nice but definitely not up to speed on Covid rules or on general health codes. She didn't wear her mask the majority of my visits, which I don't personally mind but I could see where other guests may be upset about this. The lack of stars is because I ordered a shot and was a little taken back when she voluntarily decided to join me...then after taking her shot she said how gross it was and offered me a lemon to get rid of the taste...no gloves, no sword, no tongs, just bare handed handed me a lemon. Covid or not that's unsanitary. If she lacks that common cleanliness habit then I can't imagine she's following many other common health codes.

Pre-Quarantine 2020=Used to be a regular and spend a lot of money. Bad decision to make the staffing change. Post-Quarantine 2020=Tried a few times and had the worst service I had anywhere. I don't think I want to go back until staff changes or goes back to being great again. Sorry for this location. PS: The food is excellent though!

Been coming here for years, first time I write a review on it. Great location, next to a taco spot, pizzeria, convenience store and gas station. As are most bars in Vegas you walk in and feel the plume of second hand tobacco smack you almost on your ass. But that is normal and essential to our economy in town, people drink, smoke, eat and be merry! Me and wifey ordered our drinks (she looks vodka and sodas I like beer) our drinks were brought promptly. It was a changeover in staff so bar maids were counting down the register, what I did not like is how they gravitated to the oldest guy there, big spender? I dunno but service did suffer lightly and customer drinks and ashtrays started diminish and stack with no question. Nevertheless I got my beer when I wanted it. Music was 90's alternative which is cool but gets old after a while. I can only listen for so long. Prices were ok although I wonder when happy hour is as they didn't advertise it tell us. Was it happy hour? I left buzzed and content, mission accomplished. Better music please and specials please. Overall was satisfactory.

I came in to Durango Lodge and was immediately greeted by Summer as I walked in the door. As I seated she promptly came over to take my drink order and offer a food menu. Her customer service was great, she was fast, very attentive, patient, and always wore a smile.

This is definitely one of the best neighborhood bars in town. The vibe is low key and chill. The bartenders and waitresses here are funny and accommodating. They have tv's everywhere and seating rooms that allow you to relax and watch some sports as if you are in your own living room. They also have a jukebox which I love. I love jukeboxes! They also have pool tables for those who would like to try out their billiards skills. If you're ever in the neighborhood stop by and hangout with the kewl locals and entertaining staff.

Summer is a pleasant ray of sunshine and the beer is cold. I looked twice and still can't find the drive thru...

Ryan B. Was exceptionally professional and clearly with local xp. I will come solely on his shifts, being a local for decades. It really is hard to find the traits he has now these days.

Hard to spot from the street, upon entering on a bright sunny day, be sure to give your eyes time to adjust because this bar is dark! Once acclimated I saw there was a large circular center bar complete with video gambling machines, extra lounge seating around the perimeter, pool tables to the right, and a wall of about four TVs overlooking about 8 small round tables. The interior really has a nice lodge feel with the woodwork implemented and the Big Buck Hunter video games towards the back. 50 cent Wing Wednesdays are where it's at here at the Durango Lodge. Sauce choices range from mild and hot to teriyaki and hotyaki and come with all the wing fixings such as ranch, blue cheese, carrots, and celery. The wings aren't the best I've had, but they're not bad at all especially for the price. If you're looking for somewhat more healthful option, the avocado chicken burger is a primo choice, subbing a salad for fries. I have also had the buffalo chicken wrap which I thought was very good, along with their penne with alfredo sauce, Italian sausage, and garlic bread. The service here is top notch, which can be indicative of the strong local bar crowd I have noticed, even during the daytime.

This is one of my favorite places to go. It's right down the street from me. It's kinda like Cheers, everyone knows your name. The bartenders are great the food is great and prices are reasonable. I couldn't ask for more from a locals bar.

Love this place, this is my neighborhood bar. Amazing service, great food. Groovy music. This is the place to come and chill

I come in solely to see Kevin. I've been his regular since he became a gaming bartender at No Regrets and have followed him from bar to bar. Yea, he's just that great!! He's absolutely amazing! Upon one of my first visits at the Durango lodge, I had the veggie burger w/ a salad. The patty on the burger was by far the best veggie patty I've ever had. A touch of spiciness which I love. I think they make them in house which is pleasantly surprising. Drinks are always replenished quickly and the service Kevin provides each time is absolutely flawless. He takes such good care of my boyfriend and I each time. He's authentically himself each time and makes us laugh for days. I appreciate his fun attitude and high level of professionalism every time I see him. Thank you Kevin! You're the best!

We went to the Durango Lodge to wait for our reservation to come up an a near by restaurant. Trina was awesome!!!!! We had the best time! Were treated like regulars!! Even go the gossip on some local happenings. Lol! Thank you Trina and Kevin from your Texas Champagne girls!!!!!

Ran in for a quick bite to eat. Service was friendly and accommodating. Would def recommend, especially if you want to get away from the craziness that is the strip.

I will never come back here again. Last week my boyfriend and I came in here for a simple breakfast. The waitress that took our order got it wrong. We order over easy eggs white and wheat toast but she gave us scrabbled eggs with sourdough and white toast. We went ahead and eat it. The same week my boyfriend went in there for lunch. His total was just over twenty dollars so he gave her a two dollar tip on the receipt and a dollar billon the table. All she saw was the dollar bill on the table. When we came here for lunch today with my son the waitress saw my boyfriend and was not to happy with him over the tip that he gave her last time, so what she did was paid for our lunch and proceed to tell us that she was not happy with my boyfriend and his tip. I have never been so upset about the way she was acting and how my boyfriend didn't give her the tip that she thought she deserve. We use to come here about twice a week but never again. I wished that I got her name. Ps I wish that I could give her -10 stars.

The bartenders Colleen, terrible bartender and apparently manager is beyond unprofessional; Short blond hair gal, zero personality, works Wednesday nights, and girl who changes her hair weekly, works day, aren't not attentive to patrons, unless you are one of their friendly locals. The customer service is almost zero. If you aren't gambling, you have to flag or get the attention of one of these so called hired "bartenders" for drinks, refills, another shot (price varies from bartender to bartender), glass of water, silverware, clean up food, and even the check. Never once since we've been going to the Lodge, only because walking distance from my house, has the service consistently been steadily getting worse, compared to other bars who serve food. Rude, zero service, jacked up prices compared to menus. Spend money elsewhere, plue music selection sucks and played too loud.

Once every few months, we stop in, and promptly leave again... I want this place to be good, because of the set up and the food, but it cannot be, because of the service, the prices and the crowd (there was a junkie, rolling around on the floor and pool table, but never removed). On this stop in, our group gathered for some birthday drinks. When I arrived, they said that the server had been slow and it would be best to go to the bar for my first beer. Well, that didn't help... Both bartenders walk past me, looked at me, but never acknowledged that I may want something. When one finally came over, she said "what do you want?" I asked if they had OKTOBERFEST and she said no, than yes, than I don't know, then very sarcastically "agreed" to get my drink. The male bartender then came over and snatched the money from my hand. I had to speak up. I snatched it back and he said "don't you want quarters for the pool table?" I said "no" and turned away from him. The female came back and simply said "$6.00"... I didn't say anything back, just gave her the money, left no tip and walked away. Later, the server coming around took an order of 3 beers and 2 cocktails. She brought them back over the course of 3 trips... and charged me $4.50 for the same beer. Yes, it is only $1.50, but considering I would typically drink about a dozen beers, this was in indicator to order nothing further. Everyone was aggravated and with less than an hour in, we paid up and moved the gathering elsewhere... and had a great time... and spent well over $250 gambling, drinking and ordering food... Apparently the Lodge did not want that money.

I've lived in this area since 2002. I have tried different bars but I always come back to Durango Lodge. Wonderful employees like Mandy and James will keep me coming back. From the food to the personal service I highly recommend coming here.

Speak up if you want a drink before you've dropped $300 in the machines. It's pretty hard to get served. -especially after 10pm, even if its not busy. When you do get your drink, you may want to order a double b/c it's gonna be a short jigger of whatever you ask for. The only reason I give this the 2 stars is because they have a really great "Rooster" salad. Unfortunately most of the regulars don't seem like the kind of people that eat much. They seem more like the kind of people that took a break from feverishly cleaning their grout & thought they would take their teeth grinding out in public... Very intense. Lol

Went with a friend for the wings. Food was pretty good :] It's only about $.45 cent per wing. After 6 wings you get free fries!! The whole shabang comes with lots of celery and ranch, so nothing to complain about. The waitress was pretty chill too :] We spent $11 on 20 wings and a huge plate of fries. Go here on Wednesdays if you like wings! It's all day!! :D

I don't usual frequent this Spot usually but since John Nelson started working here the vibe here is something worth experiencing... And if you hungry the creative chef Andre will whip u up something delish! And the machines max bet at 32 which is a plus

This Place has great pressence ! Love it ! I know where I'm watching my CHARGERS Play on Game Day !!!!! Trina was our Bartender and She was very Awesome

I've passed this place many times, especially on nights when I'm craving Robertos. Finally, a few friends and myself decided to go in for some drinks. The inside is pretty nice. You definitely feel as if you've escaped from the usual Vegas scenery which is more often than not, a good thing. Wasn't too busy when we went, so it provided a nice atmosphere to kick back with the friends, play some pool, and have good conversations. The other patrons who were there were friendly enough, and were more than willing to converse with anyone. As far as the bartenders go, they were great. Provided great service and were very personable. Drinks were reasonably priced. About the same prices you would get at any local bar. Didn't get a chance to try any of the food, but both the place and service were good enough, that I know I'll be back for at least a few more visits.

I went to Durango Lodge this past Saturday to go shoot some pool (they have three tables) and just hang out. I had driven past this place a gazillion times, but had never stopped in so we gave it a try. You really get the "lodge" feel when you walk in, lots of warm colors, wood and stone. Had a great time, servers/bartenders were really nice and went out of their way to provide great service, crowd was mixed, old-young. I had heard on the weekend it sometimes could be a younger crowd, but that wasn't the case, we were only there from about 8-9:30pm. Will definetly go back. . .

You can tell a lot about the meal you are about to eat by the quality of the salad. I ordered a relatively basic chicken parmigiana sandwich a side salad. What I expected was iceberg lettuce and an unripe cherry tomato. What I got was a nice mix of salad greens, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese and croutons. Impressed - for a side salad in a bar, not bad. We also ordered the fish and chips. Well done, nice pieces of cod lightly battered and fresh. Coleslaw was of the creamy style, the kind I like. Can't stand dry slaw. Blue Moon on tap, $7.25 for 25 ounces, not bad. We had nice food server, didn't sit at the bar so can't comment on the bartenders. Our server was telling us they do some sort of theme night every now and then, a dress up kind of thing. Nice lounge area near the front, several couches and tables and a few tv's. There's a wall of 6 large screen LCD tv, good place to watch some games. Overall a decent place, would definitely go back. I takes a few good visits to become a 'fan' so it gets 3 stars for now.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the staff at Durango Lodge is all new!! New Management as well. We'd love to have you all come check us out if you haven't been in for more than 5 months., you'll definitely notice a change in atmosphere and service. We are very proud of the changes made here. Come check us out. We play all Golden Knights games as well as all other sporting events.

I'm a loud obnoxious guy, given. It is a bar though; and it was a Friday. Tried celebrating my friends birthday when I was told I was too loud for the "gamers" and people were complaining. Said fine, put on some music on their jukebox and apparently my choice in music wasn't okay.... despite it being on their jukebox. Got verbally berated by a geriatric clutching his pearls. I popped off back and got screamed at by a bartender. Avoid if you're trying to have any fun

Received a last minute invite to drink with friends for someone's birthday at Durango Lodge. I've driven through this street hundreds of times and not once have I ever notice the existence of this place. Exterior of this place isn't really eye catching but it still brings in business because of the locals nearby. The moment I stepped in, I was surprised by the crowd. Expected it to be full of regular Joes and gambling seniors but it was filled with hipsters and attractive ladies (well maybe just this night so don't think I have a bad taste if otherwise!). It's very dim even though with all the TVs surrounding the bar area. The server and bartenders were welcoming and easy to converse with. While everyone else was drinking, I just ordered the country fried chicken smothered in gravy which came with potatoes and salad on the side. It was alright, nothing great because it's the brown gravy that I crave but instead they poured white gravy on it so the taste just didn't do it for me. The pool tables are freaking small. I looked around but I didn't see and midgets or kids so I guess the pool tables are just small without a purpose. This place is ok to hang in if you live nearby but I wouldn't come back here unless if there was a reason to.

This place is depressing. I'm sorry but I gave it a chance on multiple occasions. The young female bartenders primary concern is pushing drinks on you. Not a personable place or a place that you wanna go to have a few drinks to wind down. Unless maybe you're a regular, and by regular I mean someone who goes there every week or know the people who work there personally. I lived in the neighborhood for a few years now and this is the last place I ever want to go.

I've been to this establishment too many times to subject myself to more. They got the BEST CHICKEN WINGS in the valley especially especially the Garlic Parmesan!!! BETTER THAN BUFFALO WILD WINGS! This place is not pretentious, Caters to typical bar flies!

This bar is great! Gaming is awesome and bartender and servers all are as good as they come! Sliders and spaghetti night is super yummy!

Always a great atmosphere to watch a game here no matter what sport. Golden Knights Bar and good specials during the games! They take care of us locals. Be patient when they are busy.

Beautiful little spot. Glad we stopped in to be greeted with hospitality and enjoy a great true Vegas experience. Comforting, welcoming, and cozy lodge atmosphere with video poker, friendly bartender, and relaxing atmosphere, would definitely go back.
