My best experience in Vegas! Great service and incredible drink prices! We happened to go when they started karaoke and it ended up being the best night during this stay! Also met plenty of great people from around the world! Can't wait until the renovations are complete!

One block off the strip on Local, Ellis Island is a great place to go for both locals and vacationers. The food is great at a real bargain price. We love to go for their fish and chips. They also have an excellent steak special which isn't on the menu. A big top sirloin, salad, choice of potato and garlic green beans for $9.99. If you play through $5, I think, and swipe the kiosk, you can get a coupon for $2 off that steak special. So worth It! The gaming there is also excellent. That's why we locals also go there!

Party of nine had to wait over an hour for food order. 3 orders cooked improperly. Waitress never came near the table to ask to refresh drinks or anything else. Talked to the manager, rather than giving an apology, he called me a liar and said what do you expect me to do about it. Going to Vegas for 50 yrs. Absolute worst service I've ever encountered. I suggest everyone to avoid this restaurant . Contacted the guest services manager Drew Scott with no response. Contacted next person up the ladder with no response. This casino should be avoided at all costs. It's obvious they care nothing about customer service.

The casino here is quite small, but it is comfortable and there is a nice variety of games, including some full pay video poker. The slot Club gives you good perks, including a discount on a steak meal in the cafe. We had that for lunch and it was very good. Only $7.99 4 a nice thick steak, choice of potato and green beans along with choice of soup or salad. A great bargain! There are a few other venues to eat at as well. I have heard good things about the barbecue restaurant, and there is a little taco stand any little pizza stand inside as well. We will definitely be back!

We went for the first time and signed up for the players club and for a steak dinner coupon. fabulous! My steak was gristly and gross but the server was awesome and replaced it! The beans were plentiful and the potato was plain but good. Especially with the sour cream. 😍 The service was great and quick and didn't have to wait more than 20 minutes for a table. Beers we're only $2.50 for 16oz. 👌👌

The restaurant is super busy and noisy but very efficient and service is quick. We ordered the 'secret' steak dinner special and it was excellent and plentiful with happy and attentive service. The local reviews confirm that this place is a winner where the locals love to come and the number of people cheering loudly for the LV Knights confirms it! The hotel was busy, economical and comfortable although the bar fridge in the rooms do not have freezers which is an inconvenience for some. The hallways could stand to be vacuumed a bit more frequently...

I ate dinner there. It's a 5 star if you take into consideration the $10 price for the steak dinner and 4 stars if rated on food quality and ambiance and service alone. Solid food in casual setting. And I won $30 in roulette to boot! So free dinner!

For the price, it’s a great hotel. Spacious rooms, kind staff (though the front desk line moves at a snail’s pace), calm location. My room could have been a bit cleaner—finding someone else’s hair on the carpet grosses me out, but this is common at many mid-range hotels—but the bathroom was spic-and-span. A taxi driver told me that Ellis Island’s adjacent restaurant is the best place in town for steak and eggs. Hotel is right next to a 7-Eleven convenience store with fresh fruit ! 15-min walk to The Strip.

this was such a good choice that it made my week, humorous and lively attendants, they mastered the selfie technique. enough entertainment and buzz in the place, take a photo and send to friends while waiting for your table. or sit at the many slot machines..and the food, most excellent. nice lady gave us a 50% off coupon for a steak dinner and felt it was under priced so we ordered the prime rib which was just as fantastic. had it with wine and the evening went fine ..super value and a place not to be missed. great food with fun company made for a welcome fit for the early immigrants.

We went here several times during our trip for the karaoke. It's a cozy area with a fun attitude. The Brew their own beer here, and it is cheap and delicious. Definitely go for the light ale. The table games were pretty standard for Vegas, and have the usual- poker, blackjack, craps, roulette.

This review is for the breakfast only. I can't comment on anything else, but I can safely say this is the best breakfast in Vegas. If you like "cheap" diner food, you'll love this. The food is basic, but good tasting and well prepared. Servings are huge, you won't leave hungry. Best part? It's cheap! Less than $10 gets you a huge breakfast and coffee. Love it.

All we can say is that we were surprised by this hotel. It was renewed around 2016 when it became Ellis Hotel (it was a Super 8) and it is yet in awesome conditions. Comfortable bed, spacious bedroom, well-built bathroom, hot restoring shower and, more than everything, it is unbelievably well-located! Right in the heart of the Strip, but just two squares to the East, easily done walking. If you're looking for a good hotel but doesn't want to spend so much like the ones located on Strip, this Hotel is the best choice! PS1: try the Ellis Barbecue Restaurant right next to the Hotel! Great food for affordable prices! PS2: they use to give a free growler of local beer made by Ellis Brewery!

Stayed here many times over 30+ years. Rooms are very basic as you would expect for this chain. The main restaurant serves 24/7 with a full menu. They always have good steak/prime rib/fish 'n chip specials. However the Italian dishes are poor. The BBQ restaurant is AWESOME and reasonable. The Casino is very 1960's and they like it that way. This is a real locals restaurant and casino. I am told that the Brew pub beer is excellent. Slot payoffs are quite good on weekdays. Actually, I'll be there next week! ***Update: I just checked in and they have upgraded the rooms beautifully. Now they have a fridge, all tiled (floor to ceiling) bathrooms, BIG screen TV and very nice furniture and mattresses. Upgraded to 5* based on excellent VALUE!!!

Every time I've made the trip to Vegas I've made it a point to check out Ellis Island. You can't beat the steak dinner for the price.
