Freedom Beat

Food was just ok. Prime rib was middle of the road. Didn't really taste like prime rib. Carrots and broccoli were undercooked. Potatoes were fried but the big ones were undercooked and gross. Snake bites came out cold and just bland. Patty melt and breakfast sandwich was good though.

Stopped by on a Saturday morning and asked to see a menu before deciding to have breakfast. The hostess asked my friend if she wanted to hold the menu instead, which caught us a little off guard—but no big deal. Once we sat down, our server was very nice, and the food was great! The only thing that stood out was noticing another server frequently playing with her hair while handling food, which wasn’t the most appetizing sight. Hopefully, that’s something that can be addressed. Overall, we still had a good experience and enjoyed our meal!

Staying at the downtown Grand for EDC week and decided to come here for breakfast one morning. Their chicken fried steak is one of the best I've ever had! The gravy was very rich & flavorful and complimented the rest of the meal very well

I almost always never leave bad reviews, however this place was not good at all. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was okay- diner like and comfortable booths- however I was greeted with a poor lazy attitude. I received my food ($24) and the portions were quite small, also the mac and cheese was cold in some places and horribly bland. The mashed potatoes tasted like the powder you buy in-store. Will not return and I advise anyone willing to try this restaurant to steer clear until they do better.

I really enjoyed this place for breakfast, and as well as not being too busy in the mornings it had great service and some more healthy food options. There’s lots of different seating options and they didn’t mind me using one of the spacious booths despite dining alone, which was great. The prices aren’t too unreasonable for the portion sizes and the service of both food and drinks is fast. Everything was well cooked and tasty, and if you’re staying in the hotel its ideally located for getting a great start to your day.

The Gamblers prime rib is definitely worth it! Very good and tender. The wings were good also. The service was even better!! The staff in the restaurant are very friendly and helpful. I will definitely come back.

Fantastic early morning deal, $8! Lovely upbeat staff. Add this to our Fremont regulars

Mmmmm! Whenever we stay at the Downtown Grand Hotel in Vegas, we eat here at this restaurant. Never been disappointed. Food is always good and decently priced. The place is clean and spacious. Conveniently located within the Downtown Grand Casino. 😀

This spot mixes classic American eats with a laid-back, rock 'n' roll vibe. Their BBQ brisket sandwich is everything you want it to be--smoky, cheesy, and unapologetically messy. The country fried steak is covered in rich sausage gravy and served with scrambled eggs and potatoes. And if you're aiming for balance, the fresh garden salad with cucumbers and croutons is there to keep things respectable. Breakfast is served all day on weekends, because who really eats eggs before noon anyway?

"Freedom Beat" is a restaurant located within the Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino. The name is derived from, what appears to be, a recording industry theme. In fact, they have a stage to host live music. My friends and I were hotel guests. We were in town to participate in activities associated with March Madness. During my stay. I had three meals here. Let's talk about their prime rib dinner. The meal consists of a slice of prime rib (roughly a 1/2" cut), garlic mashed potatoes, broccolini and carrots. It is currently priced at $21.00. The beef was of good quality and served per my request. I was impressed that the mashed potatoes appeared to be made from scratch. It was not too heavy; not too thin; and it was moist. I also appreciated that the vegetables were cooked--but not over cooked. On Friday night, I wanted a sit-down meal. I was so impressed with the value of the plate; I invited friends to dinner the following evening. All of the prime rib servings were uniform in presentation. We also had a group breakfast on Saturday morning. The front of the house was understaffed, resulting in service gaps. However, the kitchen prepared the breakfast dishes well, and everyone was satisfied with their selection.

Food was DUMB expensive and microwaveable-food quality. I tried to taste the prime rib from a friend, extremely flavorless and gross... I'm talking about NO seasoning except LARD. I had the "marry me chicken" and it was the size of my palm INCLUDING THE 70% creamy sauce, while 30% was the "chicken" and two pieces of tomatoes and mushroom. Gross and sad. Not worth an hour or two of your hard earned money. Save it for a nice dinner.

Located in the Downtown Grand hotel, conveniently open 24/7! Breakfast items served all day. We came in for brunch, good variety on the menu from French toast pancakes, omelettes, egg dishes wide menu of adult libations as well. Service is good, hubs had typical scrambled eggs potatoes bacon and toast- ok. I got the eggs Benedict- eggs were overcooked sauce was clumpy - like it came out of a can, I would not recommend! Ambience is busy and high energy- type sports bar type. Our server, she was nice and efficient. 4 stars service, 3 stars food.

I almost always never leave bad reviews, however this place was not good at all. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was okay- diner like and comfortable booths- however I was greeted with a poor lazy attitude. I received my food ($24) and the portions were quite small, also the mac and cheese was cold in some places and horribly bland. The mashed potatoes tasted like the powder you buy in-store. Will not return and I advise anyone willing to try this restaurant to steer clear until they do better.

Came here on a Friday and it was not too busy but they were understaff. So service was kinda slow. There was a band playing so it was a little loud. For food, we tried their wings, fish & chips, and soup. Soup was a disappointment. The bowl was bigger than the amount of soup I got and there was barely anything there. It was definitely not worth the $10. The fish and chips were not good either. The fish was mostly batter and the fries were soggy. The saving grace was the chicken wings. Anyway, I don't think we'll be back here.

I went to the bar. Which was full at 930am. The dining room had more seating available at this time. I was greeted quick and politely. The bar tender noticed i was eyeing the Power Burrito. Letting me know the dinning room stopped serving it at 9 but the bar has it until 10. It was 9:15am. I ordered it. It came out fast and fresh. The burrito was wrapped well and was accompanied with a side of green salsa. The burrito contained scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, country potatoes and cheese. All was seasoned perfectly and the burrito was cut in half for easier consumption. The cost was about $12.

Since I was staying at the Grand, this place was pretty convenient for breakfast. Also they serve regular food all day so one day for breakfast, I had the pot roast sandwich which was delicious. The regular build your own omelet was fine, nothing super exciting. For Vegas, the prices are reasonable and the service is decent. I don't think I'd go out of my way to eat here unless I was staying at the Grand. It was good that there wasn't a huge wait.

Food here is better than you would imagine. Ordered the Fish and Chips and were greeted with three sizable beer battered filets. Almost more than I could finish. Fries and tartar sauce were on point. Not disappointed with my choice. Wife order the prime rib. Always good and the portioned perfectly. However the reason we eat here is for the apple pie ala mode. They messed up the first one that came to the table but correctly redid it. We got it comped for their error. Live music during the time we were there.

I hate to give a bad review, but it wasn't the most enjoyable experience tonight. The entrance from the casino to the restaurant was open, but nobody came by. There was nobody in the bar area that we could see to wave down. Finally, I walked in and caught an employee's attention and he said oh You need to go to the bar and order and then seat yourself. Would've been nice if that entrance would've either been closed and/or had a sign saying enter by the bar. No biggie, ordered my food, which was the crispy chicken Asian wrap, and when it was delivered, I started eating it and it was mostly tortilla with a little bit of salad no Asian dressing. It was more like a water down Cesar, and it had three pieces of shrimp in it . I was kind of picking at it because I was hungry. The bartender, who by the way was awesome, stopped by and said how's your food and I said it's not crispy chicken or Asian he apologized and had it remade. The new one came out. There were a few pieces of crispy chicken, mostly tortilla, but no fried wontons no Cashews - And no Asian dressing on it - so I just ate what I could and paid my bill and left. I've been at this restaurant before and never had that kind of experience from the kitchen.

I was hesitant to eat here based on the 3.5 star review. However, our party of 8 was pleasantly surprised. Not one of us had a complaint on our food, service or anything else. There weren't a ton of people as we're visiting thanksgiving week and it's mid week. There was a decent drink selection and food selection. My family got the patty melt, coconut shrimp and chicken wings. I was able to taste all of it and all were delicious. Their ranch was also surprisingly good. For those that like ranch, you know what I mean here. It can make or break a place. If you're looking for a simple bite to eat with friendly service, it's a good spot. Good food, good fries, good ranch and good service.

This was a pretty tasty diner. It was convenient since I was staying in the hotel where it's located. The food is good and service is usually ok. It's not usually busy so everything goes pretty quickly.

A very convenient location inside of the Downtown Grand Hotel and Casino. They have a decent selection of food and drinks to choose from. My husband and I really enjoyed their breakfast. The potatoes were seasoned perfectly and the fruit was fresh and sweet. The staff is super friendly and nice. The ladies are very helpful even when the restaurant busy and they are short staffed. They made sure that they took care of everyone in a timely manner. We always have a few of our meals here. Plus if you get hungry you can go down stairs and get a bite to eat or something to drink. We recommend trying this restaurant.

Very good spot for lunch. We enjoyed our sandwiches, very affordable, good service, and good vibe. Only complaint is that it is not 24-7. In fact, 5 days of the week they are not even open till midnight, which is something I kind of expect hotels downtown to offer (Circa, GN, Plaza all have 24/7 options).

Solid 3 stars but could easily be 5 if they PAID ATTENTION to these reviews! Went for a drink during HH on a Sat. night, bartender was disinterested in everything and had to ask 2x for a glass of water along w/our drinks. Finally got the bill after 2 drinks--he was packing up to leave, hence his dismissive attitude. Fine. Next day, went for late breakfast and server tried seating us at a booth where abs. no one else was sitting; we asked if we could sit closer to the TV was (wanted to watch the F1 race live) and she was super exasperated! No idea why, if anything it's closer to her OTHER tables= easier for servers to help everyone, duh... Finally came back w/the menus and got our order; beers came pretty fast, but no water after ALSO ordering those w/the beers. Is there a water shortage in Vegas I didn't know about?? I'm kidding, I'm also from the desert so I know water can be an issue, but usually establishments are pouring it down your throat to balance out the alcohol! Anyway, my frittata came sans the toast it was supposed to come with; had to ask the guy who actually brought it to please bring us the sourdough. He couldn't have been nicer, wish our server woman was as nice. Oh--also, before bringing us menus or taking our orders, she found it to be more important to CLEAN THE TABLES behind us where others had left! Rather than helping NEW hungry customers! Bizarre, they really need training for their staff cuz the food was actually pretty good.

Staying at the Grand and visiting Vegas for my birthday. Arrived slightly before opening and the bartender tells us it will be a few minutes. No biggie. My group and I come back at opening and the bartender tells us to walk down by the side with American Flag and someone will be with us shortly. As we're walking to the sign, a waitress then yells at us "You Can't Sit Yourselves" Based off her rudeness, I wanted to leave. But we needed a quick breakfast before our ATV activity we had scheduled - and I didn't know another breakfast spot to go to that was open early in the morning & close by. I definitely walked back up to the bartender to let her know what happened. I'm assuming the waitress may have gotten accustomed to only dealing with drunk people from the hotel casino and keeps her attitude on 10. Not the first impression I was hoping for. What a way to start off my birthday. Thank God she wasn't the waitress who took our orders. The food was decent and came out rather quick after our orders were placed. May try again, but will look for other breakfast spots if I decide to visit Vegas again!

When you are on Fremont and need some breakfast after the partying is done this place has some good pancakes! There is a lot of food they give so sharing is perfect. Service was good, they were super busy so it was hard for the waitress to get to us, but she was working her tail off. There is a bar inside the cafe that is full service. So that is really nice. Anyway ... that's what was happening in my mouth. But you try it and tell us what was happening in yours.

Stopped in to use our half off coupon and the food options are not the healthiest but they are satisfying. Our server Alyssa was cool and nice and wasn't a bother. The bar counter top is metal so if you don't wanna smell like a penny afterwards check out their tables.

We checked in pretty late and felt a bit of the grumbles around the belly. I ordered up two side dishes. The steamed veggies were incredibly good. For my other side dish, the onion rings were fine, but a bit on the greasy beer batter side. Freedom Beat can get very busy for weekend late morning eats. On Saturday, early evening, I heard some good live music on stage. Freedom Beat is worth the stop. The staff is quite friendly too. This is a nice, modern, and not so expensive place to satisfy your hunger.

Great service and great food. Prime rib hash was huge and amazing. Was empty when we got here now full, still great service.

Service was slow and the food wasn't great. Probably not returning. I like the decor of the restaurant but that was it.

My husband and I decided to come here our first night in Vegas because it's in our hotel, the Downtown Grand. They serve breakfast all day, sandwiches, and dinner entrees. I decided to get the BLT and tater tots. The BLT was good. Nothing spectacular about it, but it was good. I wasn't a fan of the tater tots, it was like really mushy and flavorless potatoes. My husband got a regular burger. He said it was "alright". He asked for just meat and cheese and they didn't listen and added their special sauce that's kinda like a mayo of some sort. We also got the cheese curds. Now those were pretty good. A little too greasy, but those were pretty good! The food wasn't really my problem, my problem was the staff. The hostess was really nice! Our waitress on the other hand wasn't the best. I hate to say this! She barely introduced herself and after bringing our starter and walking away for a bit she came back and just stood there and stared at us until one of us realized why she was standing there. After taking our orders we never saw her again.....like she didn't bring us refills, didn't check on us once, didn't grab the plates. We just never saw her until she brought the check. lol

This was a go to in Vegas. Service & food was good. Food comes out fast too and never a wait to be seated.

Prime rib for $21 with Live music that was crazy good. Yes and yes! Will definitely be coming back! My daughter ordered the salmon. That was great too. Will now be one of our downtown Vegas go-to's.

I first tried this place when I stayed at Downtown Grand in April 2021. It's isn't a sit down/servers come type of place but rather, you order, pay and then sit down and wait until food is brought to your table. The food is VERY good here. The cheese curds = YUM!! I haven't been there yet during when they have live entertainment so I'm curious to see how that is... I will be back!!

We stayed at the Downtown Grand this past weekend for an event, stopped into the Freedom Beat for dinner. Took a few minutes for a server to come seat us. Then as she was about to seat us, another server came over and they couldn't agree where to seat us. They finally figure it out (half the place was empty) and they seat us in a booth, right in front of the stage where people were singing. They brought us water, and take our orders. We waited for quite awhile for our food, and when it comes, my food is wrong, and they completely forgot our daughters! They also never brought our drinks. So they finally bring me my right food, 10 minutes later, and still forgot our daughters! And they bring most of our drinks, and forgot my husbands. We had to ask them multiple times for drinks, they finally bring my daughter's food, then last, after my husband is done eating, he gets his Coke. Absolutely awful service. The singers were so loud, it gave me a headache, I don't think they needed mics for the size of this restaurant. The food was eh. Won't be back here.

My co-workers and I came here for a quick lunch. We were staying in the Downtown Grand hotel and Freedom Beat is located inside, right by the lobby. I ordered the herb marinated grilled chicken. It came with broccolini, carrots, and pesto sauce. It was average tasting. The chicken had flavor, but was a bit dry. I really liked the broccolini but the carrots had a weird taste to them. The pesto sauce was surprisingly delicious. It had a nutty, savory flavor and I drenched everything with it.

Unfortunately, this restaurant was recommended to us and it was an all around bad experience. We went yesterday (March 1st) at about noon. It wasn't busy and we didn't have to wait too long to be seated, but then it took a very long time to take our order. The Bloody Marys are bottomless as advertised on the menu for $20. When my husband ordered he asked for "a Bloody Mary." The waitress wrote that down, no questions about it. Seems reasonable to assume he could order a second one as it's a bottomless beverage. However, after ordering a second one because the first one was too thick to drink, the tab came and the Bloody Marys rang up at $30. When asked for clarification, the waitress said it's $12 for a shot of Tito's and $3 for Bloody Mary mix. He never asked for Tito's specifically, just "a Bloody Mary" and the waitress never asked him nor explained (as it's not mentioned on the menu) that the "well" Bloody Mary is bottomless and the Tito's or anything else was not. He ordered eggs Benedict (which was served cold), I ordered a buffalo chicken wrap. Didn't think a buffalo wrap could go wrong but it was. The flavor was bland and the chicken was like popcorn chicken and the lettuce was like from a pre-chopped salad kit, all that would be fine if it was wrapped up in a way that not all those chopped bits of chicken and lettuce didn't fall out the second I attempted a bite. Normally, I'd just brush it off as a loss but it was absolutely not worth while because I got food poisoning from it. Approximately, 30-40 minutes after eating I noticed I really wasn't feeling okay and a few hours later I was full on puking my guts out. Have been in bed since with the exception of the wonderful bathroom runs.. And yes, I can say with certainty that the food poisoning was from Freedom Beat.

Tried to grab a simple breakfast this morning (by myself). The place was about ¾ full, which certainly shouldn't be an issue. Sat down and waited.... And waited... and waited. I watched tables next to me get served as I sat. 20 minutes at the table and not even a "hello". By then I was out of time to eat and make a meeting. Got up and told the greeter what had happened - I received a blank stare. Not even an "I'm sorry". Just a blank stare. I know what you are saying "they were busy!" Yeah, no. Tables seated after me were getting attention. I was ignored. Kinda sucks. If you don't have 2 hours to eat you may want to be free to explore other options.

First off ... what the heck is wrong with the angry RBF bar tender. We walked in the restaurant and she gave us the worst stink eye face ever known and it seemed like she did that to many other customers as well. Yeah that was super welcoming. She obviously has a horrible attitude. But anyway besides that I came here with some friend cuz we were staying at the casino and were extremely hungry and thought they would be having a live band play on a Saturday... well I was wrong. Our server told us it was basically his first day working there so we cut him some slack but he did very well in serving us and making us laugh. Ok so now with the food..... uuuggghhh it was 10000% trash no no noooo way will I ever come back here nor recommend it to anyone Perrrrrrrriod LOL ... i guess I was expecting a little more effort in our food prep but that was completely false. As you can see in my pics the food doesn't even look appealing. Now MAYBE if I was drunk ... but I wasn't. The Philly I ordered was horrrrrible!!! I would give this place zero stars if I could but the server was the only reason it got 2 stars. I don't recommend this place at all.

My husband and I ate at Freedom Beat twice in the past week while we were visiting the Casino at The Grand. The servers were upbeat and energetic. The food was great. I had an avocado toast with poached eggs which was delicious. My husband had the burgers and onion rings twice. We were pleasantly surprised by the food quality.

The food was excellent, we had the prime rib, which was perfect and also the fried fish and the dessert was apple pie Ella mode excellent

Lively spot to eat hood and enjoyed some live performance music . Food portions Here are pretty Henry. Their smoked wings were pretty finger licking good. The line for entering seems long but with the 3 man crew that was there. They made it happen. Was cool because you could either dine in, sit a lot the bar or order a drink from the line to go. The ONLy thing the rubbed me the wrong way. Was their table tops. At the touch it seems sticky and dirty. So when I asked to have it cleaned. One crew member mentioned that it is the finish of theme wood product. So just a heads up on that. Tables are not dirty or sticky in that way.

Typical sports bar, with a music theme. The food was well below standard. I got the vegan Shepards pie. There was no flavor what so ever. I had to add a bunch of salt, pepper, hot sauce and sour cream to the mash potatoes. It was also not filling for the price of $22. The waitress was nice, however a little all over the place. She dropped our credit card when checking out then told us we didn't give her a card. We had to walk around the restaurant to find it. Overall, even if you're staying at the grand I wouldn't recommend this spot.

Good solid choice if you're downtown. Food is not bad at all. Service is very good. Family friendly.

So the set up has changed during these changing times. Order and pay for your meal at the entrance area by the bar. They give you a number and you pick whatever table you like. I received a wonderful prime rib platter quite quickly after my order was in. No direct service with a server but there is staff present. They have a full bar. The value here is with a little gambling play, (25 pts) go up to their kiosk/players card booth and get a $10 prime rib or 50% off plate dining voucher. Also, the prime rib platter came with real smashed potatoes and fancy lightly charred broccoli and mini carrots. Appreciated the fresh veggies.

I had the hash and eggs. Worst breakfast I have ever had. At least half the tables were not cleaned off after customers. The only good thing was the service.

We really enjoyed this restaurant! You do order at the front and then sit down but don't let that discourage you! The food is delicious and the portions are definitely shareable! We were impressed with prices for Vegas as well! You can't beat the $14.99 prime rib gamblers special..it honestly was Delicious and served beautifully! They even were kind enough to split the portion onto two plates for us! In a city where the prices are out of control this place is definitely a winner for price, flavor and portions! Highly recommend!!

Basic Brunch Food. I came here for a outing. Nice atmosphere and great music. Hope to come back again. Quick tip; Promote more on Brunch and list this on the Menu**

Good little restaurant tucked inside of The Downtown Grand Hotel. They have just enough of what you'd want or need on the menu with just a little bit of a twist here and there. The Eggs Benedict didn't disappoint and the home fries are yummy. I didn't love the Cali Omelet, a bit too heavy for me. The Pot Roast sandwich was tasty. The pot roast wasn't super tender but it wasn't tough either. Service could use a bit of improvement. It wasn't terrible though. Could be short staffed because of a lack of people willing to work, not sure. Note: they do not have full table service staff after brunch hours. You order and pay at the counter then someone brings it to you. After that, no additional service.

We shared everything. We ordered a Cesar salad, with ranch dressing. Pretty big sizet. We ordered the wings ,which was delicious. Pot roast sandwich, very flavorful and not dry. Onion rings are good, beer battered like tempura. That's my favorite way to eat onion rings. Fries were pretty good, perfectly salted. We hadn't been there in about 6 years. Glad we went back. Some might have a problem with the service. You order at bar. Take your number to sit. The waiter brings you everything. When he brought food, asked if we needed refill on ice tea. We went Thursday night around 6. There was no live music. But they do have on weekends, i think. Our bill came out to $55. Little pricey, but quality great food. Everything was great. We will be back.

Hashbrowns were cold and greasy. Food came out with wrong order and waiter was rude and abrasive. Didn't enjoy this experience at all. I won't be returning but someone else might find it a really good experience and good food.

We came into Freedom Beat for brunch and felt underwhelmed with the overall visit. The crab cake Benedict was decent but I like to get what I order and the description for this pricy menu item stated there was caviar topping the hollandaise. As you can see in the picture they substituted the caviar with carrots. When asked about the swap I was told the caviar was too salty. I guess I was more disappointed there wasn't any communication about the change prior to inquiring about it. As for the the cheesesteak, you aren't missing out on anything here. Although the live music was enough to give two stars.

Located in the Grand Hotel, we stopped by Freedom Beat for brunchy brunch and bottomless mimosas with some friends on a Sunday afternoon... Service & Ambiance: The decor is rock n roll guitar and USA based in a casual and fun way. It kind of has a Hard Rock Cafe kind of vibe, but more focused on the celebration of guitars. There's live entertainment and this morning we had a solo guitarist singing away as we took down the bottomless mimosas. Corn Beef Hash: "Slow cooked corned beef with grilled onions topped with two fried eggs and served with their famous potatoes" The hash comes served in a baby skillet pan. I was hoping for layers of hash and onions under the fried eggs but unfortunately the servings were on the smaller side. However, the corned beef was flavorful and the potatoes were on point. The bottomless mimosas were a value at $14. This alone makes for an easy re-visit. Overall, I'd suggest ordering family style if you're heading to Freedom Beat for a brunch visit. The servings are on the smaller side. Think of tapas portions with their brunch dishes. Enjoy!

The breakfast here is mindblowingly good! I loved the biscuit egg bacon deal they had. I came with some people and we got the bottomless mimosas. The service was good, and everyone was friendly. I liked the vibe of the place too. Alyssa was super nice. Would recommend trying this place!

There times on here are incorrect When i got here the system was down had us bouncing back and forth between computers The guy who took our order was really rude no type of positive energy. Didn't even look at us once in our eyes and kept giving attitude They brought my order out and brought wrong orders to the table so they took it back in and took 20 mins to come back out (even tho i just had ordered avocado toast) lol. because the guy who took our order put the wrong information in and they called management to talk to us. Overall horrible experience. never coming back.

Very good. Quick and easy in "old law vegas". I had the breakfast sandwich and it was delicious!

Just an okay experience. American Breakfast and Coffee. Scrambled Eggs were the best thing on my plate. Soft, pillowy and creamy, they were delicious! The sausage links were good, but I asked for them to be well done and they were barely cooked through. The "world famous" seasoned potatoes tasted as if the seasoning was just a ton of burnt rosemary. I could barely taste anything else. The coffee was passable but nothing special. Service was good and they are wheelchair accessible.

Ate here for breakfast after receiving a 50% coupon from my players card. The All American breakfast is a normal price of $18, so $9 after my discount. The service was subpar and the eggs came out cold. Even though we received the coupon each day of our visit, we never came back. During the last trip, we did the same thing, but had the prime rib for dinner. Same experience. Just blah. Much better places to eat downtown, even with a coupon. I'm rooting for you Downtown Grand.
