GiMiK Republik

We went here at GiMik Republik for the crispy pata, but they overcooked it. I requested a bit of crunch, but the result was burned. We did not see it because the lights are dark and we trust them but unfortunately the result was this😡 so frustrating!

Oct. 3, 2024. We visited Las Vegas for the weekend and we found this place on a Thursday night. It wasn't busy, the food was good, service is good, the band is good. It could be better but we had a fun night with the band. I even get to jam play the guitar with the band. Music was awesome! Top 40 from the 80s. Atmosphere is good. I will come back to Gimik Republik on our next trip to Las Vegas.

We had our wedding reception here and everything was perfect! Jessie was so helpful and accommodating with all of our requests. He helped us with getting a band that we and all of our guests loved . The staff and food was amazing. We highly recommend this place for any special occasions. Thank you for making our special day even more special!

First time here, we won't be back. How the heck does this place have a 4.3 rating? Should be around 2.0. We order food for four people, and after awhile, the food for half of us came out, but the food for the half of the table didn't come out for another 30 minutes! WTH? We think the waitress forgot to keep checking with the kitchen. Trying to get refills and another round requires effort on our part to get noticed. Waitress refused to take dirty dishes away, until we begged. The food was just okay. The bathroom was disgusting! We were told that the band will start at 9:00pm, but they didn't even start their soundcheck until 9:30. 10:05 pm now, still no live music. We are leaving. Forget it.

Always a good time here. Reminds me of home. Went on a Friday night and band starts at 10p they close at 2a. Just difficult to park even at night and road construction on Decatur

People are nice, and the food is excellent, but I wish they would stop doing karaoke at some point, so people can dance and it will be perfect!

We had late dinner for 6 people last Saturday July 6, 2024. The food & service was good not the atmosphere. It seems the band that was playing favored the bigger table of 10+ people that they kept letting them sing & not everybody else that was there. Mic didn't rotate at all. We even pass a paper for the song I wanted to sing because it was my gf's birthday week. Guess what the band didn't honor anyone else's except their friends at the big table. We had at least an hour or so left so we ordered our food & waited for nothing. What a way to ruin everyone else's night. GimikFilipino mgmt don't book that band anymore.

Fun atmosphere. Great food! Affordable beers. You feel like you are just in the Philippines in a local bar. Band and singers are great! The waitresses are very accomodating. They do need desserts in their menu though! 🤣 Best place to hang out with fellow Filipinos who love to have a good time, to sing karaoke and dance all night!

Gimik Republik is not just a bar and restaurant; they are family. I was completely overwhelmed by the love and support they showed my mom during a difficult time. My mom and stepdad had their wedding reception here in June 2023, and it was a lovely experience. Unfortunately, my stepdad passed away recently, but Gimik Republik put together a beautiful tribute in his honor. They provided delicious food and drinks, all of which were perfect. I will miss my stepdad's cooking, but his recipes will live on at Gimik Republik. I'll continue to visit whenever I crave his cooking. The servers are incredibly kind and loving, and I can understand why my stepdad enjoyed working here. If you want to try authentic filipino food, this is the place to go.

It is an Asian Filipino bar , karaoke and restaurant. It is a good hang out at night . The place has colorful wall mural which caters more to younger ti mid generation. The bar is ok. There was a live band doing 80's songs with mix of Filipino songs. They are so lively. The only set back poor parking space. The dishes were good. The crispy karekare was really good. I asked for more veggies and they served it. The crispy limo was cooked perfectly. The Sisig original was too oily and bland . Needs salt. You need to eat with rice. The crispy eggplant was ok. Overall it was a good first time visit to Gimik. We will be back when in Vegas.

We celebrated our son's 21st birthday and we had a blast. The staff are very accommodating and catered to all our needs. Raffy took care of us all the way. The band that was playing that night was so great - The Playlist. We are definitely coming back and celebrate more events here. The foods are great and the price is very very reasonable. Five star .

We met a friend's relatives at this place and our experienced was very good. This place reminds me the traditional bar in the Philippines. From the ambiance, food and music. We really had a great night at this place and foods were amazing. I definitely recommend this place to try when you're in Vegas.

Always a good time here. Reminds me of home. Went on a Friday night and band starts at 10p they close at 2a. Just difficult to park even at night and road construction on Decatur

The night began with excitement as I went out with friends on a Friday evening. We arrived at a venue that was far too small for the loud live band, making the atmosphere overwhelming. The music was deafening, drowning out our conversations. Service was lacking, with empty water pitcher and plates cluttering our table, creating a chaotic environment. I've certainly experienced better nights out at other places. Given the noise and poor service, I wouldn't return unless absolutely necessary. Overall, it was a disappointing experience that fell short of expectations.

Great service, they were able to accommodate a large group of us (10+) with tons of food and beer, while also being quite busy (considering it was around 12 am). They serve Filipino food, which I've never tried before, I sort of ventured outside of my comfort zone to try their bird ear and fried chicken skin with vinegar for dipping, while I also had some of the noodles as well-- which I found good. The fried chicken skin was more of a "meaty" bite vs a super crispy one, which I was surprised by, meanwhile, the bird ear had the chewiness of octopus. This place was pretty busy and they featured live entertainment which was 80s themed for tonight, everything was lively and overall a fun time especially if you're looking to try something new like I was. It was also cool cause they let some people participate with the band performance-- which they did quite well at.

You have to watch this business the bartender charges me a bucket of beers for $35 I gave him a tip $5 so my wife check the prices the bucket supposed to be $30 so I asked he said sorry gave me back $5 he didn't even if I wanted my tip back but I would've just gave him the tip but another person asked for a bucket he charged him $44 but it supposed to be $35 he told the bartender the bartender said tax n tip is included. Watch out this place is a ripoff!

Food 9/10 Service 9.5/10 Ambiance 9/10 Servers are very attentive! Love the vibes here very authentic filipino. Reminds me of Gerry's Grill back home! Shout out to The Playlist band for an epic night. We had so much fun!

I didn't expect Gimik Republik is known for entertainment. This place is awesome. Great food, band, and friendly staff. Band start at 10pm and it gets busy late time. They are open until 2am I believe. Reminders: they sing more Filipino songs and great for karaoke live!!!

2nd time there with the ohana.. filipino food is very authentic. I liked the sigsig and Kare Kare Liempomuch.. I think gimick will be my go-to for those filipino dishes. The server Madeline had great customer service, dj Bella so good on the 1s and 2s , even singing good on karaoke. Bartender also had outstanding customer service .. I wanted a Woodford old-fashioned but didn't have any, so Rowena quickly offers buffalo trace.. another perfect choice for a bourbon old-fashioned, and also made my wife a pretty good amf. Overall, everyone had superb customer service, and each one anticipated all my ohana needs. Mahalos

Poor service. Tried to eat tonight but server was really rude to us since kitchen's gonna close although we were not informed beforehand regarding it. We just left and cancelled the order. Been a loyal customer ever since prior covid but never gonna come back unless needed.

So Much Fun Place! Open Karaoke Live band, Delicious Foods and Drinks! I Highly Recommend Gimik Republiik

their lechon kawali is the best of all the filipino restaurants that i have been... strongly recommended

Visited this place when at vegas for a weekend getaway. The band doesn't start at 10pm. Band was cool. Customers were participating. Filipino food as expected .. tasted good but a little greasy . We walked in and because we didn't have reservations we were seated on a small table, we were 3. The plates of food wouldn't even fit on the table plus the drinks . We saw more table not occupied until we left around 12 midnight . If I will go back .. Uhmnn. Maybe .

Cousins planned a stop here for music, beer, laughs and everything in between. Who was I to argue, that's a pretty good combo of a good time! Reservations are a must. As we walked in, all tables were accounted for. We were a party of six and were initially seated by the door. We asked if we could be seated somewhere else (our table wasn't really not an ideal place to be in for anyone, I must say) so we were moved to another with no issues. Needless to say, we were delighted. I was told there was a band who do sets every hour or so but doesn't start 'til around 10pm-ish. In between would be patrons who are willing or brave enough to get up on stage and showoff their vocal skills. But I was also after the food. We were a party of 6, so we could splurge a little bit. Cuzzo suggested a street food platter, chicharron bulaklak and deep-fried squid. We also started with water all around as well as a couple of buckets of SanMigLight. It's very reminiscent of bars in the Philippines. Other than the prices on their food and drink offerings, it really did feel like I was back in the homeland. CHICHARRON BULAKLAK: Not really a fan of this to begin with, but the gush of oil with each bite isn't my idea of a good appetizer. I do understand this that may be the norm for most, but that's exactly the reason why I don't like it. Flavor was delicious, though, I just can't stand what feels like a waterfall of grease swirling inside my mouth. There is flavor, sure, but... hard pass. (Cuzzos enjoyed it, so it wasn't necessarily a loss.) DEEP FRIED SQUID: As often as cuzzos have been here, like me, it is also their first time having it. I see why every table puts in at least one order; it is almost mind-blowing. It is nothing like I've ever seen. I've seen it stuffed and grilled; I've seen it sliced, battered and deep fried, but never the likes of how they prepped it here. It's a whole different concept of leaving it whole, battered and fried and presented standing with 2 BBQ sticks. How to eat it is easy: just hold on to the part you want to eat and cut it out with scissors (kinda like a small version in the style of churrascaria.) Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and seasoned perfectly well. Highly recommending. STREET FOOD PLATTER: Chef's choice for 12 sticks total. What we got were 3 sticks each of kikiam, fish balls, lobster balls and pork isaw. Everything was great apps, but what stood out most for me is the isaw. There was no gamey smell, cooked fantastic and most important was separating them in bite sizes. Absolutely worth it and so good we ordered a 2nd. FOOD: 4. If only they can improve on the chicharron, it'd be closer to perfect. Also, their water tasted a little funky. We all had that "WTH?" face when we took a swig. SERVICE: 5. The fact they accommodated us at the very beginning has to be lauded. VALUE: 4. A little on the pricey side, but if you're willing to splurge a little bit... PARKING: Private lot shared with others. Wasn't an issue when we arrived at 9pm on a Saturday. OVERALL: 4.5 The band was entertaining: they were funny, there was talent and they were a delight to watch. (FYI: They take requests.) I would return if only for the street food platter and deep-fried squid. If you're feeling a little nostalgic about the Philippines, this may just be your go-to.

If you're local and looking for a spot to hangout with karaoke and food vibe this is the spot they have live music plus in between set they do karaoke sessions

We are so happy Gimik is open back up again.This place has everything from delicious food to awesome entertainment and super friendly staff.We used to frequent this place before it closed down due to Covid but now it's open back up and we are so happy and will be back again again .Highly recommend.

Service was so bad... only one waitress on a saturday night... understandable ehy she was not in a good mood.

Food is good but service is soooo slow. Maybe hire more workers or don't serve food because you're food will come out 45 mins late....still waiting for our drinks 1hr later

You all are tripping giving this place a 1 star. This is a very authentic filipino karaoke spot if you want to feel like your back in the Philippines! All of the food we ordered was incredible and the host sang her heart out to keep the vibe going! Servers were sweet and not pushy to get us to order more but were very available. Come and enjoy with no worries.

A server from a different restaurant recommended this place to me and my husband. We weren't disappointed, the place had a chic and at home feel. The food was delicious, our server Madelyn was fabulous and sang karaoke with a powerful voice. The Karaoke DJ Bella is a powerhouse and very entertaining. Gimik Republic is a place to hang out when you're in Las Vegas.

We stopped in midweek for karaoke and food. The food was good and everyone was very friendly. The sound system is great and they even have a fog machine-it feels like you are really performing, lol. We will definitely be back!

I don't know why there wasn't much people. It's like a hidden gem. Service great and live Kareoke was on point. Very recommended!!!!

This is an updated review. I had gimik before and had a great experience with their food. I enjoyed the liempo inihaw, so I decided to order take out tonight. I'm just disappointed because this isn't what I was expecting. It was tough and cold when I got it... It definitely looked like they were in a rush.

The food and price is excellent.Madeline has great customer service she made sure she knew our names and if everything is ok. The Kare Kare liempo is so delicious and so is the tokwa /baboy. The calamari not so great because it was chewy.Overall rating 10

Support your local artists, bands, and foodie! Food is made fresh, and once you tried each and every specialty on their menu--you'll know what I'm talking about. Red Horse and San Miguel is on tap, so if you grew up in central Manila, hung out in Malate, or maybe Libis--this is nostalgic of those moments. Live bands are happening every Friday and Saturday of Top 40s, Alternative Music, and OPM (Original Pinoy Music) Check their Instagram for an event that is happening every night, like Tuesdays they have a DJ, so you can party on Industry night. The are located conveniently from the Strip, so if you are headed out after work for Happy Hour 5-7, this is your joint. I recommend this to everyone who wants to give typical Pinoy Food a chance!

Great atmosphere! Great staff and of course great food. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Try the fried pusit.

The Hausband are the best They are funny and very friendly.The food are grea especially the Street Platter

a great place for live music, good filipino food, and an all around fun atmosphere. -- Covid-19 review: reservations are recommended, especially on the weekends when it gets packed. -- Arrival: the staff is like -- really busy -- just about all the time. -- Staff: had a lot of tables to attend to and it's hard to get their attention -- ordered my alcoholic drink with the waitress and she said okay, an hour passed only to find out that I had to go to the bar myself. Also waters for our party didn't come till an hour later; the live music distracted me for the mean time. The waitress informed us that food is going to take a while because it was busy -- took about an hour as well. -- Menu: Given to you at your table. -- Price: pretty pricey for the food, but it's a good shareable portion and they have a huge selection of classic Filipino dishes. -- Recommend? Yes for ordering take out on their non busy days. Also yes if you go and you're not that hungry and just want to enjoy the live band.

I wanted to love this place but it fell short on a lot of things. Ambiance- music is too loud that you can't have a normal conversation. You have to yell if you even want to talk. Service- they waitress is not overly friendly. Just willing to take your order then leave for a long while. We wanted water for 3 people but she only brought 1. Had to wait a while to get her attention again. Management-there was a show scheduled for 9. Posters and flyers everywhere. We asked the waitress and she said 10. If we had known it was that late we would not have come. False advertisements if you ask me. It really wasn't with the wait anyway. Wasted our time.

Great spot for karaoke with an audience! Love the vibe, the service is great, and they're open till late which is always a plus.

A great place to hang out with friends. Service is excellent and the ambiance is chill Filipino vibes. Feels like being back home in the Philippines. Welcome back Gimik.

Had my moms 90th birthday here a few years ago. Food and service was great! The owners were very responsive. DJ was awesome. We all had a great time.

They Good food and music. They have live band every Thursday and Friday. Opens at 5pm. Tapsilog is a must try!

very fun place and good food! above all very friendly management! will be back for another fun friday night!

Delicious food, FIVE STAR Customer Service! If you're craving for some good tasting Filipino Food. This is the place to be! Everything that we've tried on their Menu so Far are all delicious! Their Bulalo is the Bomb and it's my favorite! They have Karaoke pretty much every night and you get to jam with the Band on Fridays, Saturdays if you love to sing! It's a great place to eat, drink and sing. And may I add, very friendly staff..

This place is great to go if you are craving for some filing food. Yes, super good. Unfortunately it'll be hard to eat and talk with your friends because if there is a show or karaoke going on it is SUPER loud. And believe me i am not so sensitive to places that are loud but the night I came here it was LOUD. Again its a great place to come and get your chow but i am not sure about entertainment. Dance night was fun when I first came here, second time? mmmmmm just wasnt good.come check it out. Ill be back for the food for sure.

whats going on with the service here? it takes hours to ask for something. And the food! the fish was raw and tasteless wtf

Food was ok and drinks were not as great but the staff was good. Service was slow but at least they have a great crowd and show.

Great atmosphere, food and service!!! This is a must place to go to on a Wednesday night!!!

The place is so empty.. Food is pricey & not worth it. There is alot of different places to visit dnt waste your time.

Great Phillipino food. I personally liked Sinigang - that's my favorite. Place is spacious and staff is very friendly. They are open till 3am, so it's perfect if you crave some asian-phillipino food after hours. Highly recommended!

Great going down, but it came with a price - my wife and I were sick all the next day.

This place is amazing! The bartender Rowena and servers are very friendly and nice. They are professional and accommodating. I'm so entertained with the lights and music, especially the karaoke. The DJ is so funny. The best crispy pata and generous portion of sisig.

Very poor service when busy, (unsure how service is when there's barely anyone inside) before or after service, no wait staff prepares the table w utensils, plates, glasses, napkins etc. Wait staff takes so long to even come forward to take orders, to check up on food or service, to see if table needs refills other orders etc... short handed on wait staff. On very busy nights, seems like there's only 2 wait staff and a bartender.

The bartender (Rowena) and DJ (Bella Rose) are very friendly and made my night very enjoyable. I recommend this karaoke bar above all others in Las Vegas without a doubt!

It's was so upsetting coming to this place.... service is bad... food taste terrible...and food is over priced!!! Don't waste time going here Well I came back because I was forced ... yet again I was disappointed service still bad crowd is squala... this is just taking advantage because prices are too expensive for tasteless food !!!

So I want to share the HORRIBLE experience I received last night @ this place. I am new to LV & just wanted who somewhere close to home I could hear some music, have a drink & a little bite. Service seemed to be okay when we 1st walked in the door but quickly changed. We ordered a drink & started looking at the menu, this menu was geared mainly towards Filipino food which I am not familiar with but was willing to try. I ordered something safe like a shrimp roll but was told they didn't have it, the waitress suggested a crispy shrimp that seemed like it would be safe as well. When the dish came, the shrimp was completely covered in its shell & had the head, eyes & legs still on it!!! I'm sorry, I cannot eat anything that is staring at me & asked if we could order something else & was told NO!!! I was not okay with that response and proceeded to tell the perhaps manager that I have never been told at any restaurant I could not order something else if I didn't are for the dish. Why would anyone pay for something they don't like or are uncomfortable with. I was then able to get something else but got the worst treatment from them on, NO ONE came to see if we wanted a refill or another drink the waitresses instead acted like we didn't exist, even when we finally flagged the manager down & said please give me the check so I can go, clearly your staff is going to ignore us the rest of the night. We got our check paid our bill & even then the waitress that picked up the check did not even look at us as she slid the check her way. Complete and utter bullshit spot, I wouldn't recommend this place to ANYONE!! So I wanted to share with everyone how the restaurant handled my review of my experience at their establishment, instead of apologizing for their horrific service they decided to send me a message that will show everyone why I wrote what I did. Tell me what you think about this response
