Well, I think 3 strikes you're out for Sierra Gold. Â If you've seen my previous posts, you should know i gave this plaee 3 tries . . unfortunately, 2 weeks ago hubby & I were going to go there for our "before work breakfast date". got there at about 6:45, rang the doorbell, heard music . . . no answer, rang again . . . Â still hear music, no answer . . rang a third time at which time the music got noticably louder. Â Sure, the 50% off breakfast happy hour is great . . . if first of all, you can get someone to answer the door and secondly, if you can get someone to wait on you. Â Sorry Sierra Gold, it's back to Steiner's for me!
Review Source:Love coming here! My new favorite after work place!!! Â Great happy hour specials. The bartenders and wait staff are super friendly!!! The food is really good especially when Roc is there! You can always tell when he is there because there's just a lil bit extra in taste and presentation. The garlic fries are better than most places in town. Â Everyone I know brags about their breakfasts! Their desserts are DAMN DELISH!!!!
Review Source:This is definitely the best kept secret for breakfast specials in Las Vegas. We stumbled upon this when we saw a long line filled with hopeless looking people going to Baby Stacks for breakfast. Definitely not in the mood to wait for breakfast and spied a half price breakfast special at Sierra Gold next door.
What a find. Beautiful steakhouse decor. Smoke was not hanging in the air at that hour and adorable and friendly servers. Add a great steak and eggs for $5 during "happy hours 6am-10am and it's all good. My spousal unit loves the chicken fried steak too. This place has become a weekly habit for us. Stop in for breakfast. You will not be sorry.
We had marked them off the list, Â and decided to give them another try to watch a game. Â It took a little while to get the formula right, but now they're on track. Â The really, really awful and annoying bartender is gone; now Matt & Tino take excellent care of us. Â Yesterday when I visited Matt had my favorite drink in my hand before I sat down. Â
The food has improved as well, up to the standard of Jones/215.
Where do you go when the night is young and you just want an ice cold beer and some food?
If you have not stopped by this place then you are missing out. The bartender Justin is the man. He greeted us the min we walked in even though the place was packed and invited us to sit at the bar. I was with a group of about 5. We took up the far east side of the bar and was asked immediately what we would like to have to drink and if we would like a menu for food. I swear this guy must have been reading our minds because we were starving for some great food.
After looking over the menu I decided to go with the General Taos boneless wings. As I placed my order Justin yelps out good choice man!! and he was right the bucket of wings had a complete fulfilling amount of food and was the best boneless wings I have had in a long time.
If you have never been to a Sierra Gold then let me explain the atmosphere. The easiest way to do so is its a PT's with out a pool table and darts!!! Ok so you have never been to a PT's well get out of your house, get off the CPU and go enjoy life for a min hang out with some friends and enjoy the upscale yet casual bar with lots of seating room to grab a good meal and have a great conversation!
Like most bars they have video poker machines and a few arcade games. I was surprised that there was not a pool table or darts but I think that the Sierra Gold chain is trying to reach more modest people rather than the younger crowd that PT's is trying to reach. Either way this is a great place to grab a cold one.
I'm a fan of Sierra Gold as a chain of bars, but this one is by far my favorite. Â Not only is it close to my place, but everything here seems to be upgraded over the other locations. Â The building was previously a nice steakhouse, so the decor is very nice. Â The seating is plentiful and the bar itself is huge so you can almost always find a seat.
The staff is great, friendly and good at thier job! The food and drink specials are a good value and of course the beer is always cold. Â Watched a few games in the Locker Room (reserved party room) in the past and is reasonable and comfortable. Â
This is my new local hangout when I just need to unwind, have a cold beer and just relax. Â Maybe I'll see you there!
I have visited this location at all different hours as I work in the industry. Happy hour breakfast menu is superb!!! Country fried steak and eggs and pancakes at 1/2price!! I love it !! And dinner time 1/2 price drinks and pizza.. My prayers have been answered!!! The gilroy is absolutely amazing and Matt makes a killer filthy martini!!! The wait staff is always super pleasant and very knowledgable about the menu and new liquors!! And graveyard is just as great !!! Love this place and ill definitely continue my loyal business!!!
Review Source:First off, I really like the food. Â The quality is good-to-exceptional and execution/presentation is good as well. Â My issue isn't with the food. Â It is with their handling of their own monthly food discounts/offers, called "Beer And Bites Club". BTW, I like the waitstaff but it seems that the disconnect is between marketing and management (according to a manager). Â The last time I was there, the manager also didn't want to accept my Yelp check-in (1 Free Domestic Pint or Well Drink). Â He acted like Yelp was almost some type of scam where Yelp creates bonuses without businesses knowing.
It has gotten to the point that the regulars that I go with will no longer go. Â They used to go twice a week and me, once a week. Â Hopefully someone will read this & fix the problem. Â I will give this location one more chance, but I am not confident that anything will change.
To make this a little more constructive:
1) Football specials are/were amazing
2) Great burgers; the Kobe is exceptional
3) Excellent BBQ ribs, meaty, tender, & slathered in BBQ sauce
4) Coconut Shrimp appetizer seems like it belongs in a Steak House, the taste & presentation are so good. Sweet coconut+savory shrimp+great sauce=amazing!
5) Great ambiance
With all said & done, the 3 star rating is being given because of my past experiences during football season. Â If I were to base it on my last 3 visits, 2 stars.
Please, please Adonna, please read this & correct the problems...
Just like any Sierra Gold out there...but this one is fanccccyyyy inside. The building used to be a steakhouse, but they renovated it into a bar. Classy and chic with decor of Old Vegas. I love it!
Happy hour deals applies just make sure you have your rewards cards. Depending on who the server is, sometimes service is not that great. Bartenders are a lot more service oriented tho.
I'd come back here just the fact that it's in a nice neighborhood and a very nice establishment.
Don't get raped in the dark parking lot!
This is a very attractive bar, lots of wood, and black and white and sienna posters rimming most of the walls, with vibrantly colored ones on one of them.
Almost all the tables in the restaurant area are pub tables, with very comfortable stools. Â There are a few booths in the back, but these are all a step up. Â I'm always looking for places to go for Happy Hour but, unfortunately, this won't cut it. Â One of my friends is in a wheelchair and there is absolutely no way to accommodate her if she's with us, which is nearly always. Â Seems to me this is a violation of ADA regs, and I brought it to the attention of the management. Â
But we were here for dinner, so it wasn't an issue. Â I was happy that they had some very good cider on tap, and Herb had a huge beer at a good price. Â I checked the menu online before we went, and he was looking forward to the Beef Stew special to go along with it, but alas, it was nowhere to be found on the extensive menu. Â They did have a big Greek salad with chicken, so he enjoyed that.
My Turkey with Avocado and Swiss sandwich had lots of avocado, not a lot of cheese (which is okay with me and my doctor), and a good amount of turkey. Â But the turkey was way too salty. Â The cole slaw that went along with it (instead of fries) was good and plentiful.
Overall, I really like Sierra Gold, because I like the atmosphere. Â Contrary to what they say, you CAN eat the atmosphere!
Moved from Summerlin to Desert Shores a little over a year ago.. Was honestly a little lost in this area and had visited some other good places such as Steiners, Village Pub and Roadrunner in the area. Liked them... but didn't love them.
Then I popped into Sierra Gold Smoke Ranch.... WOW. This used to be Beckers Steakhouse and the ambiance is far and above anything in Northwest Las Vegas.
I've been to a lot of places all over LV and this place is certainly in the top 3 for a local LV bar with how well it's designed. Super nice place... great lighting and great atmosphere. Very classy for a Vegas Bar.
My first trip in, I was immediately greeted by Matt who is super nice and made me feel at home. Didn't take long to get to meet most of the staff and some of the best Bartenders I've come across such as Brandie, Matt, Bryan, Tino, Heather and Justin. Pretty much can't go wrong no matter what time you pop in.
The tone that is set with all of the great staff makes for a great atmosphere. It certainly has to do with the infectious smiles and personalities from the staff. Very professional, attentive and personable.
And the Food? The Pot Stickers are incredible... by far the best I've ever had and I actually lived in Korea for a year. The Gilroy Pizza... phenomenal. The Turkey Panini with Avocado that melts in your mouth is the best in town. Several other good choices that you can't go wrong with.
I've probably been in this place 20+ times now and in my opinion, it's the best place in Northwest Las Vegas if you are looking for a place that is super nice, has great employees and great food.
TIP -- They have a cook named Rock on Swing Shift who is actually from New Orleans that can whip up some of the best Cajun cooking west of New Orleans. This guy rocks and is completely authentic. If you are nice... maybe he'll make you up the best Jambalaya dish in town and better then any Jambalaya that I've had in New Orleans. It's his Mom's recipe and it's incredible! (Not on the menu.)
Happy Hours? Yes... don't really care though because it's a great place no matter what time it is.
I don't write a lot of reviews unless I really like a place... and this place is certainly worthy of one.
From top to bottom.... One of the best places in the zip code.
-- Cheers!
(UPDATE -- Terrible Place to Gamble and drink. Been charged for drinks MULTIPLE TIMES after playing. Corporate policy here is tight when it comes to serving up free drinks for gamblers.)
Very nice bar with great customer service, good drinks, n the food is to die for....I've been here maybe 3 times now n everything I've ordered was delicious!!
They have 3 different happy hours, 6am-10am, 4pm-7pm, n 12am-3am....1/2 off drinks n pizza, the 6am happy hour is 1/2 off all breakfast items n who doesn't like a great cheap breakfast?!
I love coming here cuz it's away from the strip so no overly drunk college kids just screaming away. The crowd is mixed of young n old n the service u get is friendly n fast.
Looking for an extensive food menu, reasonably priced drinks, gaming and an upscale setting without a huge price tag? This is your place. Â
This location is the newest of the Sierra Gold/PTs chain. Â As a staunch avoider of PTs, I really do love the Sierra Gold concept. Â The food menu is extensive bar/breakfast food, prices are fair and the happy hour is excellent. Â The breakfast happy hour (6a-10a daily) is a great deal with half off breakfasts. Â
My favorite thing about this particular location - Matt who works swing on Thursday -Sunday knows how to mix up some delicious drinks. Â Ask him for a White Gummi Bear or a Carrot Cake shot. Â He's very creative and always has something new and delicious to try.
this place is outstanding! i've been to mango's, the old legends casino, pt's on decatur and village pub in desert shores which "used to" be my favorite...til last night! the staff is friendly, the food is good and the place is very very nice on the inside! it isn't your typical bar, it has more of an upscale feel to it. the bartender brandie was the most attentive informative i have had in my history of drinking. And about a previous review I saw of Sierra Gold in concerns to comp drinks, I understand the concepts of comping drinks in Vegas but this isn't that day and age anymore. They still do that at the nickle slots at fiesta, hit that up! anyways, I don't mind paying happy hour prices or full price as long as the service is good. and the service here is great! big thanks to brandie for great food recommendations and making sure my drinks were bottomless! i will tell my friends about this place!
Review Source:I have never been to Sierra Gold or a PTs before. My husband and I were in the area and decided to stop by for dinner the other night. I did see their "Coming Soon" sign weeks ago, and noticed that they must have finally opened because the parking lot was full.
One of the bartenders immediately greeted us when we walked in. You can choose to sit wherever you want. Our server was pretty friendly. She explained some of the menu items to us and convinced us to get a Beer & Bites Club card. Its free and you earn 1 point for every dollar spent. When you reach 100 points, you get $5 in comps. Not sure what other benefits it has, but I guess we'll find out some day. We decided to order a bunch of appetizers:
-Crisp Fried Mozzarella: warm and cheesy. Nothing too special, but it was good.
-BBQ Pork Stuffed Potato Skins: Very tasty and my favorite so far! The pork was juicy and they give you more bbq sauce on the side.
-Boneless Teriyaki Wings: not too bad, but the Teriyaki sauce was a bit on the salty side.
Overall, a nice place to eat, drink, watch sports and relax. This location is a popular spot for the locals. It was really busy while we were there, which explains why our server took a while to check up on us and get our refills after we got our food. I would definitely come back to try other things on their menu!
My wife and I went for lunch Saturday afternoon. Place wasn't super busy, maybe 3 -4 tables when we got there plus 6 or so at the bar. Food was good. It is nice to have a good bar food place close. We decided to just do apps and ordered the beef sliders, boneless wings medium and pork loaded potato skins. The skins and sliders were excellent. The wings were OK. A little hard. As we sat a few more couple came in. The waitress was very friendly but extremely swamped. It was just her and a bartender. They clearly needed at least one more server. She never stopped moving. Probably would have given 3 1/2 starts if i could but couldn't get to that 4th yet. we will be back to try again. I have a feeling with a few minor adjustments that 4th star will come.
Review Source:Went there on a Wednesday night and the place was packed. We were greeted as we walked in the door and told we could sit anywhere we liked. It was Happy Hour, so the prices were great. We were so excited that this place finally opened and they did not disappoint us. The food and staff were great! Â We will be spending a lot of time at this place.
Review Source:Staff was very friendly, said hi when we walked in the door and were pretty quick on the service. However, I'm HIGHLY disappointed in their comp system with drinks. My friend played max bet video poker, put in 25 bucks they comped one beer. She asked for another drink and the waitress said..."what have you put in the machine?" my jaw dropped. Then she comes with a tab and charged her for the drink. SERIOUSLY?! Keep in mind she was still playing. She cashed out and we left. Never in my life am I going back to this place!
