From reading the reviews, I expected this to be a pretty good restaurant. I've now decided people love it only for the price. If you're on a budget, this is a great place to get a cheap meal, but don't expect to be wowed. I had shrimp. It was fine. My husband had steak. It wasn't really seasoned at all.... more

I read about Ellis Island on this site. My wife was a little sheepish because it is off the strip. We went on a Sat. night after the Penn and Teller show at the Rio. The wait for a table was an hour, but no problem, we went to the bar. Orderd three beers for daughter, son-in- law and myself... more

It was our 5th time to vegas but 1st to Elis Island. Can't beleive we didn't discover this place on an earlier trip. Hubby and i both had the steak special (not listed on the menu) for $6.99. We had a salad to start followed by steak baked potato and green beans acompanied with beer. Hubby had my beer and... more

The only thing that kept me from giving an "Excellent" rating was the atmosphere, which was pretty dark and dank from age. But that didn't stop us from returning two nights later for another great meal! Get the "cheap steak" meal - steak, baked potato, green beens, salad, and a huge beer, for like 7 bucks! And, if someone in... more

The Ellis Island has great in-house brews! Pretty good gaming and fantastic food in their restaurant. We always find ourselves here after a night on the strip. For a buck the bar serves up some great beer and the restaurant specials are some of the best in LV. Last visit wife had a great time playing BJ and I really... more

Ellis Island Restaurant and Casino which is about 2 blocks behind the Paris hotel was about a 10 minute walk from the Paris hotel. They have a steak and eggs breakfast special for $3.99. It’s not on the menu and it’s not on the “specials” board. You have to ask for it. You get a nice size, really tasty steak,... more

Have been there at least 15 times in the last 5 years. I use 2 for 1s often. If not, the $6.95 special works. The 4pm BBQ is outstanding but you have to put up with the wait. I love their large cut of Prime Rib. Their sirloin and eggs breakfast off the menu melts in your mouth. Yes, it... more

In Vegas twice in 2007 for business. Stayed near EI both times. Found EI on internet Vegas tips. Great steak dinners for approx $7 Don't mind waiting for table. Love the .05 Blackjack slots while drinking $1 drafts. Don't expect Strip styles or costs. Just great food, drink, casino at a cost hard to find in Vegas anymore. Will return... more
