just out of earshot of the vibrations of the strip, you have the Ellis Island/World's Largest Super 8 extravaganza, okay...I know World's largest Super 8 sounds a lot like world's prettiest Denny's waitress, but this place has mad flavor. it still retains the local bar vibe amidst all the insanity and slots around it. the restaurant and casino are combined,...

Ellis Island is truly an overlooked gem just off of The Strip. We had a little bit of slot action here (well at least more than we had at Paris). First off, this is a locals place, and if you are put off by that then you should stay away. It is located one street behind Ballys. We walked over... More

One of the true gems of Las Vegas. While the rest of the town goes for bigger and flashier, the karaoke bar at this joint is just what the doctor ordered. Cheap and delicious home brewed beer with a lively diverse clientele. I will making a stop to this place any time I am in town.

It was my wife's first visit to vegas and told her she had to experience this place. Had never tried the bbq before had their steak special in the past. We got there around 5pm on a friday, expecting a huge line, we only waited about 10 minutes and were seated. The ribs are by far the best in vegas... More

I have to say I was apprehensive when I first saw Ellis Island, particularly as our taxi driver was concerned how we had found out about the place and proceeded to advise us that it was frequented by some dodgy folk including hookers and drug dealers.......didn't fill us with much hope. We went straight to the restaurant and it was... More

I disliked all the cigarette smoke but it's Vegas so you just roll with it. Because it's a locals spot, the casino is a bit more generous - $5 blackjack tables please!

We visit Vegas about once a year. At each visit we make sure to hit Ellis Island. The food is always good and a super value. Honestly, it doesn't look like much and it's a little run down, but once you are there you realize this is a "locals" place. The beer is good (microbrewery) and the food prices can't... More

The 4pm barbeque is wonderful and something that I look forward to. The micro brew beer is equally delicious. The casino is low key. It used to be a lot of fun there, but not so much anymore.
