    We saw the Raiders House Band and they were fabulous. Who thought you could put six sting players in a jazz/soul/Latin/funk group. Beautiful mix. We'll be back in January. And $5 beer; WHAT?

    This experience was for a performance of David Perrico and the Raiders House Band, also known as the Pop Strings Orchestra. The band has an Ellis Island house performance in the Courtyard every Friday night from 10pm until midnight. No cover. No minimum. Reservations accepted. Food is limited to a small list of reasonably priced small plate snack items. Full bar menu. Awesome music. Great venue. Can’t beat the price! Kudos to Ellis Island for engaging this group in their establishment reviving classic Vegas free lounge style entertainment.

    Extremely slow service. Waited over 30 minutes to be seated with a reservation made months in advance. Nice table, great seats. The house band was excellent as expected. Hardly saw our waitress all night. The menu online did not match the very limited menu onsite, so our preselected entrees went out the window. The food that they offered was not great. Got our some of order with missing items (delivered by the kitchen staff). No silverware, no napkins, no waitress in sight. Thirty minutes later out of nowhere the kitchen staff delivers us someone else's order. We ate it & didn't say a word since the rest of our order never came. The waitress never came back to check on our drinks. It was a slow night with half of the tables empty. I feel I have to rate the host & waitress very low here, but ultimately the management should take the blame for disorganization. Not sure what is going on here, but other resorts in town offer much better service.

    Went here for a boxing match and was surprised at how nice and comfortable the place was. The only complaint I have is that you might wanna sit in the high tops and the normal chairs are a bit uncomfortable. For that to be my only complaint about the three to four hours I was there says a lot...

    Had a great time! Always a great time at the front porch. Vibes are always high and plenty of games on the TVs. Was a bit disappointed this time, meals took a good minute to come out and some of our steak was overcooked. However didn’t stop us from enjoying our night out.

    The price for the drinks were wayyyy overpriced and taste like cheeks.. $16 bucks for a burger is wild and for it to be a crappy hard cafeteria burger is just unacceptable..
