I wrote $6 tip (18%) for a steak & eggs and a beer. The bartender, instead, entered $20 tip for himself. This number, I thought, he might have made a mistake while entering the tip and reading the wrong number (there was no number on the receipt that he could have mistaken). The only reason I could think of is straight up fraud. My advice is to make sure you keep your receipt and double check the charges after the payment is processed. My bill was light but it could be a bigger issue if you have a higher tab.

Came here on a Friday I think. Service is typically above par. Bring your hunger - portions are large. Similar to a cafe in Las Vegas I loved.

For a cocktail, Epic Bar makes good ones. Its at Casino M8trix. There is a large lighting feature over the bar. There is also comfortable seating to watch a game.

This bar is located in the back center of the casino. It's more quiet and subdued compared to the larger bar. Our bartender was super friendly and attentive, but the menu was the same to the other bar. There was nothing spectacular about this bar and was lacking in general. It's just something for people who are gambling to grab a drink or bite to eat. I wouldn't come here if it wasn't for the casino. We came here to watch the game and good thing there are plenty of tvs because other than that I was bored.

It was a Friday night, not very busy, but it took forever to get anyone's attention. My gf stood there for over ten minutes and was not helped. We finally gave up and send her bf over to get us a drink. Within 2 mins, they were already getting his order. Now that that problems is over with, the drinks.... They were horrific. Overpriced and hard to drink. The sangria tasted like a $2 bottle of wine. The mango margarita tasted like water. From that moment on, beer was the safest choice for us.

***************************** 1421 *************************** Football season, I'm here to see clients and watch football. Their Happy Hour is pretty good till 6pm. The bartenders are always nice. The food is OK, but the PHO is quite good and only $7.95. You can even order a Tomahawk here. They deliver from Zone 8 restaurant. Love their lightings and many big screens here, good deal on beers, but limited on wines selection. I rarely see women here because it's inside the M8TRIX Casino, but it's quite safe because a lot of cameras and security, much better than the other casino across the street.

In our continued viewage of the ongoing WOrld Cup came here with some friends to see some games. We generally go over to the Sports Bar on the other side but because the US was playing that space was way over subscribed. The staff set up some tables for us (that's good service!) just so we could eat and see the game. Got a chicken fried steak and witnessed Tim Howard single handedly try and keep them from getting destroyed by Belgium. Very cool that the staff were accommodating enough to let us setup shop here outside their normal bar circle. 3.5 stars

Miguel and Eliza are amazing individuals in their own right, but wow, they really know how to take care of the patrons. On separate occasions I have frequented them both and they both always have a great attitude and can keep a conversation going. They aren't shy and and are both extremely professional. Miguel, one day asked what kind of drinks I liked and concocted a make shift chavela with the ingredients he had readily at the bar and it was great. Tasted so much like those mexican candies that i ended up ordering 3 of them. If you see Miguel ask him to make you this with Modelo versus Corona. The bar area aesthetic is pretty typical with a modern set up of a counter top wrap around smushed between two lounge areas with comfy seats. I like how during special sporting events they add tables to accommodate extra guests but the only real down fall are the small tvs. I don't really have to mention the crazy a** chandelier they have, it speaks and looks for itself. Still, this is a great place to hangout. It's not too loud considering it's in a casino with the constant clicking and slapping of casino chips surrounding you, I think personally it just adds to the ambiance. Overall, I recommend drinking or dining here, whether your with some friends, a date or even alone. It's a good place to blow some time and money. Beautiful people serving unique and typical drinks, whatever youre looking for, it's here. Come. Now.

We wanted to try this place out based on the following reasons: -Newly added Bar/Casino -Convenient location -Attractive view from outside (Same concept of insects being attracted to light) We ordered a few drink (Averaging $6-$7 beers, $8-$12 cocktails depending on alcohol) and it was apparent the bartender wasn't really familiar with making cocktails. As we watched her make our drinks, there were quite a few simple errors that showed some inexperience. After grabbing a few drinks, we walked over the the other sports bar and completely regretted going to this bar first. The levels of experience between bartenders from this bar and the other contrasts significantly. I don't want to sound like a snob... but in this kind of environment, shouldn't these simple things be aligned?
