Classic cocktails, half-off steaks, and a speakeasy vibe
"This off-Strip bar and steakhouse combines a mobster-cum-speakeasy ethos that makes for one of the best places to nab a classic cocktail in town. Customers should try the Blood and Sand or a Sazerac with a bloody rare steak, which is 50 percent off during happy hour. The menu alone is a history book of pre-Prohibition cocktails; couples and groups can make an evening of ordering by the era." - Janna Karel
"A neighborhood spot with Old Vegas charm, known for classic cocktails and a retro steak-and-chops sensibility that nods to the city's past." - Janna Karel
"With barely-there lighting, red and black damask wallpaper, and a bar stocked with a veritable century’s worth of cocktail fixin’s, Nectaly Mendoza’s off-Strip steakhouse and bar feels at once romantic and like a 1920s speakeasy. Whether dining at a table or the bar, the move here is steak. Happy hour runs from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. and after midnight — though it’s practically always offered all-day, which means your steaks, pork chops, and spicy mussels are likely to be half-priced no matter when you stop in. The cocktail menu here is broken up by decade, so you can start with something like a gin-based Martinez from the Gothic Age, follow up with a Prohibition-era Hemingway daiquiri, and enjoy a painkiller from the tiki boom with dessert. Best for: Sultry date nights, post-midnight dinners, and (if you make a reservation well in advance) lively birthday dinners for extroverts." - Janna Karel
"Sip among dark wood, crystal chandeliers, and bloody steaks. Happy hour is sometimes Monday through Saturday from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. — but most of the time it’s all-day every day. This off-Strip bar and steakhouse exudes mobster-cum-speakeasy attitude and is a deal with drink specials and 50 percent off steaks and some other menu items during happy hour. The cocktail list embraces the classics and executes them perfectly." - Ryan Slattery
"Nectaly Mendoza’s Herbs & Rye is probably best known for its stellar cocktails divided into descriptive historical narratives on the menu and a killer happy hour, but a world of steaks awaits on the steakhouse menu. Add a blue cheese crust or red wine glaze to the New York strips, rib-eyes, filet mignons, and flat-iron steaks on the menu. It’s all Old School Vegas here. Happy hour means half-priced steaks. And it’s almost always happy hour." - Janna Karel
