I was skeptical at first because it’s a bit smaller than i’d like, but it turns out its a lot of fun and not as intimidating as the bigger places and $7 for 1 good sized beer, that’s a good deal! I will be returning soon, so much fun and they play plenty of todays hits and songs I know how to dance to, also no cover charge on Wednesdays!!“

“My wife and I just moved here from Dallas, TX now living in Carlsbad, we purchased tickets to see Killer Queen tonight, we got to the Casino early to have dinner and sat at the bar at Rank and File, the service was fantastic, super friendly staff and attentive. I believe the bartender nick name was Avi or Avaranza? Sorry can t remember anyway super nice and took outstanding care of us. His recommendation which we took was the Pot Roast and my wife tried the Cheeseburger along with a few Woodford on the Rocks, everything tasted fantastic and honestly better than we thought it would be at a casino! WE Will Be Back Again! Thanks for great service and food.“
