Where to Eat and Drink on a Day Trip to Boulder City

"It may seem like a far drive for a burger, but the Dillinger’s hefty burgers with craveable toppings make it worth it. For those who love gourmet burgers and craft beer, the Dillinger serves creative burger selections such as the Baby Face Nelson, a burger topped with baked Brie cheese, greens and a fig marmalade as well as the crowd-favorite The Executioner burger, a juicy burger served on grilled sourdough bread and topped with grilled onions, Jack cheese and Thousand Island dressing." - Agnes Poliquin, Janna Karel

The Best Restaurants in Boulder City, Nevada - Eater Vegas

"The Dillinger’s burgers are so good, they alone make it worthwhile to drive from Las Vegas to Boulder City. These burgers are no joke — big, but also well-proportioned, generously topped, and completely craveable. Take the Baby Face Nelson, a burger topped with baked Brie cheese, greens, and fig marmalade. The Executioner is a juicy burger on grilled sourdough bread and topped with grilled onions, jack cheese, and thousand island dressing. Wash it all down with any of the local beers on tap." - Janna Karel

3 Best Day Trips from Las Vegas | Condé Nast Traveler

"If you haven’t had your fill of New Deal-era history at Hoover Dam, drive into Boulder City, whose sole reason for being built by the Bureau of Reclamation in the 1930s was to house workers for the then-named Boulder Dam. It remains a small, history-filled town (fun fact: It’s one of only two Nevada towns in which gambling is illegal), with a few attractions like a theater owned by Desi Arnaz, Jr. and the Boulder Dam Hotel, which also houses a museum. One great surprise is The Dillinger Food & Drinkery, a gangster-themed pub that serves plenty of local craft beers, plus enormous gourmet burgers loosely inspired by historic criminal characters (like the surprisingly refined Baby Face Nelson, topped with baked brie, mixed greens and fig marmalade)." - Andrea Bennett

The description of this place says, "Hip, gangster-themed pub..." I don't really know about that. I was expecting something more than just a pub with a few art pieces of John Dillinger on the walls. I was underwhelmed there. However, I must say that they have quite the burger menu! I would love to try them all. I was also impressed with their wings. They toss them, and then they grill them afterwards for a pretty good flavor. Kudos to them for that. As for drinks, my Manhattan was just OK. I think they missed the bitters. I'd definitely go back and give it another try. I would love to have those wings again and try some of the other burger styles they have. There's even one of those challenges where if you eat it all in a certain time frame, you get it for free. If I was only 20 years younger.

Service: great! Food: ordered the reuben. Bottom bread was SOAKED! Sandwich was tasty. Sweet potato fries were amazing with a drizzle of cinnamon. Pickle was good too. Don't order the bean burger. That was gross. Will come back to try other items on the menu

Food The Macaroni Bites were delicious! I wish I could have had more, and the breading on the chicken in the Messy Chicken Sandwich was awesome. The others with me also generally enjoyed their food, but I didn't inquire more about their opinions. Service To the point and friendly. A pigeon flew in and got stuck, and the staff successfully helped it back outside without hurting it or getting hurt in the process. Additionally, they always were there when you expected them. Atmosphere I thought it was very dark inside despite it being around midday. The design of the menus was pleasing, and they had some nice-looking tables outside. I felt like the decorations on the walls were sometimes a little lacking, and the place was a lot smaller than I thought it'd be, but I don't think that's a bad thing. Otherwise, I liked the music they played, and the restaurant was clean— except for the bathroom, where there was some weird sticky gray stuff that was like snow sludge.

We went for an appetizer and a drink. The staff was very nice and the food was good. The philly cheese stake fries and potatoe&beef soup were good. The couple next to us had a burger, and they were saying it was the best burger they have ever had. The vibe is very vintage and the place is in an area that is walkable to more bars and places to see

Intro: On our way back to Phoenix from Vegas, we made a pit stop in Boulder City to grab lunch at The Dillinger. My friend recommended the spot and when I heard the name, it was all I needed to know. I'm a big fan of mafia/gangster movies. If The Dillinger doesn't ring a bell, it's time to do some research. Service (N/A): We got takeout so we only interacted with the staff briefly. They were quick and efficient in taking care of the bill and the food was ready when promised. No complaints. Ambiance (4.5/5): For a gangster-themed bar and restaurant, I had a certain perception in my mind of what it would look like. And I was on target. Some mafia-related pictures adorn the walls, wooden booths, and a small bar. Cool spot. Drinks (N/A): We got takeout so no drinks on this visit but they do have my favorite beer here, Delirium Tremens. Not a lot of places have it so two thumbs way up. Food (5/5): I love a good burger and The Dillinger specializes in burgers. I went with The Dillinger because hey, how can you say no to the name of the restaurant? Especially when you hear that it's a burger batty with brisket, bacon, and all of the fixings. This is a good size burger y'all that oozes with those good meat juices and sauce. The bacon is crisp. The bread fluffy. Everything comes together for an A+ burger. The fries were also great. Crisp. And a large portion. A better lunch than this would be hard to find for me. Overall: If I was living in Boulder City, I would be a regular here. We found free parking right across from the restaurant. If you're looking for a delicious lunch in a casual environment and you want to down a couple of brews, check out The Dillinger.

Came up with my husband and daughter for a quick work trip and of course had to wander around adorable Boulder City. We were starving and heard The Dillinger was a "must try" and now I see why. It's a quaint little pub style restaurant with a vast menu. My husband and I wanted to try everything! I could not believe the options. I ended up with the baby face Nelson burger with a side of their creamy chicken veggie soup. The burger was to die for! The mix of the melted Brie cheese with the fig was just *chefs kiss* I devoured it. To wash it down had to try a Nevada brewed beer and went for the Able Baker mango he'd draft. So tasty and flavorful. My husband went with an original smash burger, and my daughter did the grilled cheese with fries. All were great. Service was fairly quick and they were very attentive. Definitely would come back if in town.

Ordered a burger with a dinner salad. While waiting I observed my surroundings. The young girls didn't interact with any patrons. They didn't smile. They didn't look happy. They looked like robots. It just had a strange vibe. My salad arrived with my burger, which I can't figure out why you would serve them together. The burger was messy and my toppings fell out. I would not return.

I finally made it to The Dillinger! Located in Downtown Boulder City this tiny spot has amble seating with a friendly staff. I ordered The Dillinger- minus the cheddar piled with applewood smoked bacon & bbq'd beef brisket. This is a Damn good burger! Hubs ordered the Pancho Villa burger - piled high with grilled Onions & Jalapeños including Habanero Jack Cheese & Jalapeño bacon- delish! For sides we choose fries & onion rings - both good. Full bar.

We found this place on the way back from Hoover Dam and it's was a great find! The food was very tasty and Huge portions.. We had a 3 piece Fish n Chip special on Friday's for $13 and I could barely finish two and The Dillinger 1/2 lb burger with applewood bacon and brisket .. The service was excellent and the drinks and food came fast.. Nice ambiance with a rustic bar and tables made with bullets.. Definitely worth the trip out of Vegas if you're going to visit Hoover Dam or Lake Mead...

We only waited a short time for a table despite the smallish dining room. If you can't wait there was plenty of seating out front too. There were four adults in our group. Food came out promptly and we enjoyed everything we ordered. Onion rings, as they should be, hot, and crispy, and the onions were soft and sweet. Too many places give you crappy onion rings even expensive restaurants. These were made right. Five stars for that! I had the prime rib patty melt on grilled sourdough bread. A little smallish but very good. The meat was a little overcooked for a prime rib but very good flavor. I had fries which were lightly seasoned and crisp. Others had burgers and chicken. Some of us also had sweet potato fires. I should add here that we live in the Midwest, and have lived in the South, both regions that do sweet potato fries very well and in many varieties. These were lightly covered in brown sugar and cinnamon. My wife liked them I didn't think the dusting was needed. However, I prefer a more savory fry to dip in ranch dressing. They don't carry any ZERO sodas and like most places in Southern Nevada do not carry Coke products. My choices then were diet Pepsi (yuck) or water. The restrooms were in need of repair, remodeling, and cleaning but they were serviceable. The theme of historical bank robbers, thieves, and early mobsters was well presented and there were lots of things to look at while you waited. Also if you eat out front there are fans and misting machines to make it more comfortable.

This place in Boulder City was so cute. Both my husband and I ordered burgers and they were amazing! I went with the Capone, wrapped in lettuce, and he did the Brie cheese one. We also ordered chicken tenders and fries for our son that were really good as well. They have limited seating inside (about 10 tables or so) but offer patio seating with fans and misters. The servers were friendly and attentive, we'd definitely be back to try more burgers. They have a peanut butter one that sparked my interest!

We parked easily on the street and walked in not knowing what to expect based on how quiet it was outside. We were greeted and seated immediately and the service was excellent from there! The menu was awesome, literally something for everyone. Sweet potato fries were delicious, as was the smashed burger! Prices were reasonable, they had a full bar and despite the small interior it was a popular spot! Highly recommend!

Elliott N.

Yelp
You can tell this place is well-loved because it was packed with locals. The theme adds a bit of fun to the menu and the ambience, which is comfortable and pleasant. The server was quite friendly. Food-wise, I have good and bad thoughts. I had the dillinger-style wings and the new chicken sandwich. The wings were great; tender, tasty, and I loved the sauce. The chicken on the sandwich was fried well but I think it could do with more sauce, because I couldn't taste it and it wasn't evenly distributed on the sandwich.

Yelp
The food is good. However, the portion sizes are off a kids menu. I defer to my wife on this one because I'm a 6'2" 250 pound fat guy. She ordered the bbq brisket sandwich "piled high" per the menu. When the top bun touches the bottom bun, not a whole lot of piling going on. The gangster fries are delicious. The place has a cool vibe. Just don't arrive hungry.

This was our second time here and as usual the food is amazing. It's a little bar/restaurant that sits in the middle of a cute little town. It is family friendly. When you step inside it feels like you stepped back in time. With wooden doors and wooden floors and a few tables with a nice fully stocked bar. I ordered a whiskey sour with woodford and it was perfectly balanced and was actually refreshing. For an appetizer we got the smoked Gouda Mac and cheese bites. I could seriously eat the whole thing by myself. They are fried to perfection and cheesy. I can't remember the name of the burger I got and I don't see it on their menu online. I know it was one that was created by customers. It had grilled jalapeños, habanero cheese and spicy bacon. Burger was cooked to perfection and while it sounds spicy it wasn't. It had a great flavor and the perfect amount of heat. I got the Dillinger fries as my side and the garlic aioli and Parmesan cheese made for the best fries I've ever ate. Hubby got the sticky burger which has peanut butter on it. Amazing flavor combination and cooked to perfection. He looks everywhere for a burger that compares and there isn't one. His side was sweet potato fries and they have a cinnamon sugar dust and while they were good they could have used more cinnamon sugar dust. Highly recommend stopping in here after a trip to the Hoover dam or if you're looking to get out of the hustle and bustle of Vegas and have a rental vehicle or drove here.

What a gem! We loved everything there. In town for a baseball tournament and heard about this place. Hubby had (and lived) the brisket burger, my son had (and loved) the messy chicken dinner, my mother had (and loved) the Ruben and I had (and loved) the portobello burger. Seriously, it was all great

Burger was good + sweet potato fries. Seems more a bar than restaurant, service was slow. But I did get a great pour of Makers. When you're from UT, you forget what that's like.

Went here for lunch last weekend and had a good experience. The place is rather small but has a nice patio which increases the space. It seems like a family run restaurant with the daughters plus a few others running tables and the bar. Everyone was super friendly, the interior was dark but had a good theme, and the food was quite tasty as well. My party got two cups of chicken and dumpling soup, the Chinese chicken salad, the Bonnie melt, the BBQ beef brisket sandwich, and two long island iced teas. Everybody enjoyed their food and I was told the long islands were some of the best my parents ever had. I think I won out with the salad as the portion was a good size and the dressing was nice and tangy. I will say though that the chicken in both the soup and my salad was a bit overcooked and the bread on the brisket sandwich was burnt but those did not detract much from the taste. Note that if you use a credit card to pay, they charge a 4% fee.

Wound up her by accident after we got to the Boulder Brewing Company and it was closed, and what a happy accident! This is a cool little restaurant. Food was delicious and the staff was super friendly! Highly recommend the fried pickles. The burger list was extensive and super fun.

We went to The Dillinger in Boulder City for some food and drinks after my solo recital a few streets over. Though my parents, my grandma, and my family friend were present in the audience, it was just me and my boyfriend because my parents had to take my grandma home and my family friend had to go home to her son and babysitter. It was the perfect temperature to sit outside on their patio. It was a little busy on the inside but not packed. We took a seat on the patio and reviewed the beer menu. We both had a sampler of the Bluffing Isn't Weisse from Bad Beat Brewing, which is one of my favorite beers from this local brewery, topped with an orange slice. My boyfriend doesn't remember ever trying this beer, even though he's definitely had it before. For our appetizer, we shared a thing of beer battered onion rings, which were tender, crispy, and flavorful. They have a ton of burger choices here too. My parents have been here before and my mom said that she had their sticky burger, which is a cheeseburger with peanut butter smothered on it. I'm probably going to get a ton of heat from others who've had this burger before, but in my opinion, burgers with peanut butter on it do not mix. I pointed it out on the menu to my boyfriend and he agreed with me as well. We decided on their sandwiches. I had the tuna melt and my boyfriend had the BBQ beef brisket sandwich, both with fries and a pickle on the side. While the tuna melt was a little messy, it was abundant and delicious. My boyfriend said that his BBQ beef brisket sandwich was tender and spot on. Service was great and everyone working there was friendly, despite us showing up a little over an hour before closing time. I live in Henderson and won't be back in Boulder City for at least a couple of months. Next time we'll try out their burgers.

There are so many highlights for this place based on my personal experience. We are locals ourselves and are big supporters of local businesses so we were very pleased to see that this one restaurant was open while other restaurants in the area had already closed. The Dillinger was already booming but luckily for us, someone had just left so we were able to get seated as soon as we arrived. The service was very personable. It just so happened that we were also celebrating a little bday for my father in law so decided on a bottle of wine to go along with our food. Staff kept our Riesling chilled behind the bar and would pour as requested. All hot sandwiches were great and I loved the sweet potatoe fries! In the end, our server surprised my father in law with a slice of cheesecake and a candle. It was nice little touch. It was the perfect late lunch and created the best experience for all of us. Prices are very reasonable. It may not be a fine dine place but it is more of a pub with a "Cheers" atmosphere. Great place to socialize, enjoy some friendly chats with F&B and create some nice memories !

We decided to go to Boulder City and explore a little and just in time for lunch. The Dillinger was recommended to us so why not give it a try. The atmosphere was good and we were greeted right away when we stepped inside. The staff was friendly and we were seated immediately. The inside is dark and small but we got a booth in the back and it worked fine. Our server was very attentive and helpful. We ordered a few things and it didn't take too long to come out. We ordered a chicken sandwich and it was supposed to be spicy but it really didn't have much flavor, we also ordered chicken wings and they were spicy but even asking for them to be well done they were a bit mushy. The fries were good but not so hot , my mom's burger was far from gourmet it definitely seemed to be a premade patty and was on the small side. Honestly the food was just ok and we wouldn't go out of our way to go here again unless someone wanted to go.

After hiking, the old Historic Railroad Trail to Hoover Dam and back (8 miles in the sun), we decided to pop into the Dillinger for a burger to quench our ravenous appetite after this epic hike. I was struggling, yet this burger rescued me. I ordered the double smash with a side of french fries, a new burger on their menu, and this smash hits. The onions perfectly pressed into the burger, the bun soft and sweet, the onions and cheese oozing out of this delicious double smash. Woo boy! It was a fantastic burger. This is a spot in Boulder City that is great for burger nuts, especially those of you who enjoy strange toppings on your meat. The service can sometimes be slow but only because the place is packed, especially on a Saturday afternoon in beautiful Boulder City. I highly recommend stopping in here, as much as I highly recommend spending a day up in Boulder City checking out the breweries, antique stores and some of the other beautiful amenities they have up there that are nothing like we see here in Las Vegas.

Small dingy little place. Prices are completely overpriced. Three people for lunch cost us over $70.00. This was for three sandwiches with onion rings, two waters and a Pepsi. Food was luke warm and extremely bland tasting. Service was great but food not worth the money or the hype.

The food is VERY good and a worker (lady in gray shirt) was nice but everyone else looked confused and lost and didn't know the menu so we couldn't ask questions and all the rules posted on the walls and tables makes the place look rude and unwelcoming.

I ordered their "The Dillinger" burger and I will dream about that burger, it was juicy and flavorful with some of the softest brisket I've ever had. I asked for ketchup because I usually need it for my burger but this burger was absolutely perfect without it. If you want an amazing burger, get The Dillinger.

My husband was trying to love this place for lunch I never liked it but he wanted to go a few times. He finally gave up because the staff is so incredibly rude! Service is pretty bad everywhere these days, it was horrible for us, jaw droppingly rude two different times. but it was actually the older manager lady that finally drove us off. Outrageous! What a sad life that must be. People want to spend their hard earned money and tip and the staff makes it impossible. The food was awful, but my husband liked the kids smashburger, you have to substitute the kids smash burger bc the adult one is loaded with onions. He even likes onions and its too much. so gross.

Food 3.5, Service 5, ambiance 3.5, cleanliness 3, price/value 3.5 =3.7 Boulder City is a quaint town with a few hot spots. The Dillinger is one of them. The service was great. Friendly, attentive, knowledgeable servers that happily explain the menu and give suggestions. Ambiance is that of a bar. But few pictures on the walls but otherwise very plain. The food was solid. There is nothing stunning about the flavors. The prime rib melt was decent. The roasted peppers on it were also good, but the flavors didn't compliment each other. The creamy horseradish sauce was a yummy addition. When at a place that offers a dish named after themselves, you have to try it: The Dillinger is a burger with smoked brisket. The brisket had a really nice smoke to it, and sadly, they drowned it with BBQ sauce. The BBQ sauce was so overwhelming that it masked the taste of the burger, which alone was tasty; together, it was good, not great. IMHO, leave our sauce (the brisket should be jiucy and speak for itself), and it's a winner. The Asain slaw was good but not very asain tasting. The soup was OK. Not quite creamy enough. The onion rings were good but skinny. Bottom line, go and ask for The Dillinger without BBQ sauce.

Burgers!!! The best in town by far. There is a burger to please everyone's taste buds. Classic, spicy, sweet or just craziness. And the gangster fries are straight gangster if you like a truffle mayo. It's reason number two to go there. The service is never disappointing even though their space is tight and they are always full. I'm proud to have an excellent burger joint with an awesome ambiance here in my town. Show these tourists how we do it in Boulder City!! We are welcoming and talented.

I know right? What the heck was I doing in Boulder! Haha! We were on our way test out the terror train ok and we stumbled upon This spot located in a little city, right next to an vintage antique shop. It's a Cute little bar, outdoor and indoor seating. I didn't know what to expect - but the food was actually really good! And the drink prices were amazing! Friendly customer service. Pets and kids allowed. The playlist was awesome that night!!! Made me want to get up and dance! Hahaa - hope no one minded me singing to Livin on a prayer. Lol! Ordered pastrami melt, burger, fries and calamari. Everything was tasty, and quick service!!! I'd come back again! Thanks boulder for brining me to Dillinger's. Definitely stop by if you're ever in boulder.

My family and I decided to try this place per the reviews. We come into Boulder City every weekend as we go to the Veterans Memorial Cemetery from Vegas. As a server myself, this place was terrible. Service was lacking in every aspect. Was only checked on when we ordered food, had food dropped off, and when presented with the check. The food was also awful. It was apparent that the kitchen was behind (probably lacking in staff). Onion rings were soggy. Calamari was sad. Seafood bisque under seasoned. It is rare that I tip anyone under 20% as I know the value of tipping as I work in the service industry. However, because everything was so bad I could not justify leaving 20%. Maybe we came on a bad day. I cannot see myself coming here again.

We stopped at The Dillinger on a Saturday afternoon after exploring Boulder City and having a few drinks elsewhere. We came here specifically because they offered outdoor seating and our dog could join us. We liked that. When we arrived, there was only one table outside open and we were able to grab it no problem. They had a few bowls ready outside for dog water bowls and were happy to bring water for our dog. We also were able to order him a plain grilled chicken breast so he could get some food too which we appreciated. They said they do it all the time! For our dinner, my husband was in the mood for wings so he went with that and I went with a Bugsy burger. Felt like I had to have a burger here! My husband thought his wings were just OK but he is really picky on wings. He did still eat them all up of course. My burger was yummy and cooked to how I asked for it. I also liked the Asian Coleslaw I got as a side.

My spouse and I recently stayed in Boulder City while traveling through the area. An employee at the Boulder Dam Inn where we were staying highly recommended The Dillinger as a dinner stop. We were seeking a casual local dining option, and The Dillinger was the perfect spot for us. The menu featured a variety of burgers, and I opted for The Callie. I was pleased with the portions, and the service was fantastic. The bar had a nice selection of cocktails and beers. Tiffany was our server. She was cheerful and attentive. Her recommendations were spot on, and she made our dining experience great. The ambiance was relaxed, and, best of all, fellow patrons were friendly and welcoming. The prices were reasonable too, so I suggest giving The Dillinger a try when you're in the mood for a fulfilling and relaxing casual dining experience.

Dark! We were there for lunch on a very sunny day and it was a big adjustment for my eyes when we went in. Service was great, I had the smashburger, which was smaller than the others but just right for me. Asian Slaw was more vinegar based, I'm more of a creamy guy but this was very interesting and good for a one time experience. Try it if you're up for something different. Onion rings were great. Really great after a morning at Hoover Dam. Downtown Boulder City is super cute, by the way.

We eaten here multiple times and have tried to push through the garbage service because the burgers are good and they stay open a little later than other restaurants in town. After calling to make sure they stayed open late, they told us they would seat the last table at 9:30. Showed up right before nine and the girls working gave us a dirty look and told us kitchen was closed. They said they didn't know who we talked to, but doesn't matter because they obviously don't talk to each other and wanted to go home and hang out with her boyfriends. Never going here again.

Oh man this place was great!!! We ordered a bottle of wine and bunch of food that my sister and I split. The bisque soup was amazing!! The Mac and cheese bites were creamy and fun. The Tuna melt totally got the spot. The prices are extremely fair!! Would have given 5 stars if the server would not have disappeared at the end when we were trying to pay the bill. And watch out for the credit card fee they automatically add to your bill!! We were paying cash and had we not looked over the bill, we would have involuntarily paid an additional fee. Other than that, we really loved this place. Decoration is fitting and cool. Staff was nice, just slow at the end. Food was on point. Would return for sure

So good!!! Fast and friendly service. Restaurant nice and clean. Bonus, they had the nights game on! Ordered cocktails. We're plain, tequila club soda and lime. Which came out fast and were made perfectly. As an appetizer had the calamari. Cooked perfectly with not too much breading. The cocktail sauce had a kick with extra horseradish . I really don't care for much horseradish but this time it was really good. So if you like horseradish, this is definitely for you!! The hubs and I both had burgers. I had the Baby Face Nelson. Baked Brie cheese, mixed greens and fig marmalade with the patty over medium. Burger cook perfectly, the Brie cheese with the fig marmalade paired nicely together. Ordered onion rings with it and came out perfectly cooked with not too much breading. Hubs had the burger with jalapeño bacon, pepper jack cheese and fries. Want a burger with a little kick, this is the one to get. Everything on the menu sounds delicious and we will definitely be back. Great prices!!!

Stopped here with friends on our way to Hoover Dam and this place is legit. Really good, fresh, delicious food, super friendly staff, great beer selection... just what we were looking for. Highly recommend the Dillinger burger, the Sticky burger with an egg, and the Messy Chicken sandwich. Mac and cheese bites were really delicious, too. Will definitely come back on it next trip.

We stopped here after a morning at the Hoover Dam. We were hungry after all of that hiking! The Dillinger delivered. Not a very exotic or diverse menu but what it does offer (burgers and sandwiches) it does very very well. There's not a ton of seating... a bar with 12-15 bar stools and about a dozen tables, but we were lucky to be able to grab a table and service was prompt and friendly. We got sodas and my husband got a beer. Then we ordered sandwiches and the kid ordered chicken fingers. They do have a kids menu... notable for what is first and foremost a bar. The food was also prompt and made well. Not Michelin level but we weren't looking for that anyway. Reasonable prices, too. The tables filled up while were there and cleared/filled up again during our lunch. It's a popular place, and I can see why. Good food, good pricing and hey, there's beer! We will definitely return the next time we are in the area.

Love this place! As a local so grateful for great food, great service and a reasonable price. So many other places in town are price gouging but Dillengers offer us a great place to eat!!! Thanks!!

First time here. Had the wings, which were excellent. Nice and crispy. The burgers were good, fires were skinny and tasty. Had the brisket burger which had too much bbq sauce for my liking, but everything else was good. They have indoor and outdoor seating and very close walkable distance to downtown historic Boulder City.

Came here due to a local recommendation. We were in the hunt for a good burger. They have a good burger list and everything is very reasonably priced. Got the jalapeño hot burger, pretty tasty thought the bun was a bit cold and didn't match the burger. Kiddo really enjoyed the kids burger. The best thing we had was the prime rib patty melt. Super tender and delicious. All the food tasted almost home made, not greasy or over salted like most pub food. Great suggestions by the server, who was super nice and told us how they prepared everything. We left pretty satisfied.

The best lunch experience of our lives!!! From the start, Amy welcomed us and our dog like we were family! The food was amazing. The seafood bisque is a must! Every staff member helped make our experience fantastic, but Amy was 10/10. I wanted to literally HUG HER! Lol I know that's weird but we'll definitely be back!!!

Get the macaroni & cheese bites! Don't think about it, don't wonder. Do it! Absolutely do it. They are amazing and my favorite thing on the menu. My Philly was ok and my friends liked the grilled cheese and BLT but we all love the bites!
