I'm banned from Rum Bullions. Why? I don't know. It just doesn't make any sense. Just last week, I was trying some drinks at Rum Bullions, I went downstairs and gambled, came back upstairs having won some money! At the door, the host/guard said: "No, you have been kicked out, you're not supposed to be here." It gets better. This isn't even the second time. This is the third time. I can't understand it. No one will explain it. Mysteriously, I've never had any kind of altercation or negative experience at Rum Bullions. Is this a case of mistaken identity? I don't look nefarious or intimidating. I'm just some guy. We will never discover the real answer, because everyone just says they don't know why I'm banned.

Staff is fantastic!!! They deserve 5 stars across the board!! Super friendly and customer service oriented! Why did I give them 3 stars you may ask? I am in their sitting area with my family of 7, 5 adults and 2 kids. An El Dorado security guard, a filipino woman, was rude asf! She came over and harassed us after an hour of sitting here. This sour face decided to say no kids. The bar sign says no one under 21 inside the bar. We were outside sitting with our kids. Got 4 rounds and was enjoying our time. This sour puss face woman came over and demanded we needed to move. We argued back and she quickly went to the walky talky bc we weren't listening. Explained that the sign says only in the bar. She argued with us and wouldnt budge. She took off about 40 feet and doubled back. "Observe and report" right?? No this puss face woman was on a mission to make sure we left. We stopped our open tab at the bar and it was a loss to the bar. They need to come out here and protect us as paying customers. Kids are not in the bar=no crime. Some people take their security job wayyyyy to seriously!! Whatever your name is, this bar should ban you from walking over here. Definitely missed customers who would have bought 15-20 rounds. Good job Circus Circus El Dorado Security!! Again, staff was fantastic and deserve 5 stars!!

My friends and I stopped in for a drink, but didn't stay too long. I ordered an AMF, which has several different liquors (like a Long Island Ice Tea) but has a sweet flavor, masking the different alcohols. There was music, but it wasn't too loud or intrusive. We left before things got crowded. It looked like there was a DJ getting ready for the night's entertainment.

We may have been here on an off night but the female bartender seemed to be having a bad night. She was short with us and also curt with the group sitting next to us at the bar. The drink was good but not great; we only stayed for one round. There are many other lounges in The Row, give this one a pass.

Drinks are insane. Bartender (the girl) was awesome. Did all the work while the other guy just sits there and talks.

decided to go out for a cocktail on a Saturday night and went to the row in downtown Reno. We had planned to go to Roxy's the piano bar but they were not open surprisingly. We walked down and went to rum bullion's Island bar. We were pleasantly surprised that it was happy hour until 8:00. our first three drinks were only $13, well drinks. One of our party came in later and ordered a drink which was not a well drink unfortunately and she was not informed by the bartender and her drink was $13 lol. We wondered why she got it in a glass instead of a plastic cup. in any event we all enjoyed well drinks for the rest of the evening. they were strong and good. The bartenders were busy in the place was about 30% full. We also got some jello shots. We enjoyed our evening and will definitely return. We came in about 6:00 and happy hour was until 8:00 but I'm not sure what time it starts. We did not check out any food menu so I can't advise on that.

Drinks are watered down and service is forgettable. A few tv screens/monitors could play music videos instead of the never ending loop of their schedule.

Captain Morgan watches guard at the front door... I keep a close eye on the mining machine that towers above. Great fun here and without a doubt the place to drink while at Silver. Was in town for the last of the Reno air races. After countless years this will be the final year it is held in reno and so we had to visit. Seems like everybody had the same idea. I've never seen so many people here since maybe 20 years ago. Hotel full, casino full and this bar of course packed. A lively crowd of young people on the weekend. Music is a highlight and although your steps away from the casino the bar takes you into another space and dimension - or is that all the alcohol? Some seating inside and then some 'patio' seating outside. Got some outdoor vibes inside - the massive dome creates a lot of air space and good vibes. Many pilots and military made this their home for the weekend too - I think its an obvious choice - easily the best overall hotel in Reno... Downtown or not.

So I seen caucasian in their with shorts on friday but as a latino I was not allow on a Friday. Discrimination at it point. I thought the nation has come to a better generation. This ace has not. Better choice to go to another place.

I've have been coming to for years and have never been treated the terrible way I was last night by KERRIN. I can't help but believe she was so terribly rude to my friends, from out of town, and I because we were gay and brown.

We sat there for 10 minutes at the bar where the bartender was chatting away with other customers. It was fine for the first couple of minutes, but we stood there for awhile and we were ignored. In the end, we were not given service during the long time we stood there so we left.

Who can really pass up a tiki bar? Great vibes, fun drink options, it'll get me a very time. They have a solid mix of events and I've always enjoyed the dueling pianos night.

Eh. Won't go back. Bartenders not happy to be there. Looked super bored and not happy. Went on a recommendation. Way too many bars to ever go back for that kind of service.

Had fun at this after hours bar and dance spot after a long night of drinking and gambling for a friends 30th birthday. They played a lot of 2000's throw backs which was the perfect vibe.
