Martini’s

This place is now reopened under new ownership and the people are amazing! The service is great and the food outstanding…

Our bartender was terrible. She ignored us for most of the 2 hours we were there. The food was very good but wasn’t good enough to make up for the bad service. Won’t go back soon.

Straight off the bat I give this place 4 stars for the service. The staff is friendly and attentive.
The first round I had three martinis: the pear, blueberry, and the chocolate. Loved them all.
The second round: the orange creamsicle… not so great. Too sweet for my taste buds.
The food is a step up from the typical bar grub. It’s not the best, but if you’re drinks are that good who shall notice?
I had the tuna flat bread (the sauce was too heavy). the Kobe beef burger was good, salad needed some sprucing up (homemade dressing, better lettuce selection)
Overall, it’s a nice casual hang out away from the strip.
I will return.

Awesome food, awesome employees, and majority of people who patron are pretty cool too.

Alright, let’s get one thing straight. My rating should actually be 3.5 stars but since that’s not an option I went with 3. I was torn between 3 and 4 but I guess the 3 won in the end.
I’ve been here twice. The first time was sometime in August last year. The second time was yesterday afternoon/​evening. The first time I went with my sister after passing by. We went in to check out the menu and decided to stay based on the sheer fact that they served Kobe beef burgers at a reasonable price. From then on I’ve been wanting Kobe beef burgers and being that I was going to be in Las Vegas this weekend, I decided to go back.
The first time I ordered a Kobe beef burger with smoked gouda cheese and mango chutney sauce. They let you choose one of four sides, which includes ranch chips, steak fries, or vegetables (cooked two different ways sauteed and the other I can’t recall.) We got ranch dressing on the side and let me say the burger was sooo good. I don’t even like burgers or at least not the fast food drive through or diner variety. Perhaps burgers that are of the gourmet variety or let’s just say of better quality.
When I went back yesterday, I totally forgot that I had ordered the burger last time and for whatever reason thought I had ordered the sliders. So we each got an order of the Kobe beef sliders. There are three to an order and five toppings to choose from. We ended up getting four different ones and two of the same. The sliders were small to say the least.
I read on another individual’s Unilocal review that the sliders would be $ 8 instead of $ 10 during Happy Hour but it wasn’t!!! I wasn’t about to ask and embarrass myself though. Nothing on the Happy Hour menu sounded particularly appetizing and it only consisted of appetizers. However, being that we went during Happy Hour we got an appetizer from the Happy Hour menu. It was a rather small plate of steak fries smothered in truffle oil and topped with parmesan cheese. I don’t like fries and I especially dislike steak fries or fat fries. I only like fries from In N’ Out because they taste fake. I wanted to order these fries simply because the menu described it as being «smothered in truffle oil.» The server also said it was really good when I asked her about it.
When the order arrived I was disappointed. Not only was it not «smothered in truffle oil» but the plate was tiny and the fries tasted mediocre at best. I spent $ 5 on a plate of fries that I normally wouldn’t even have eaten for free.
Back to the sliders, they were pretty good. Obviously not as great the burger in price or taste. The sliders cost $ 10 whereas the burger was $ 11. For a mere dollar more, you get a lot more meat. Plus the smoked gouda and mango chutney tasted great together.
One thing I was rather peeved about is that on both visits, there was no one at the front when we walked in. They had a sign saying «Please Wait to be Seated» but several people walked right it adding to my confusion of whether any one would actually come seat us.
Yesterday, the restroom and the area surrounding it also reeked of sulfur. I didn’t really mind that much since I was seated anywhere near it, but for the poor souls who actually had to sit there and bear it I feel bad for them.

The menu’s slightly different but we wanted kobe beef. All 3 of us had sliders of various types but the full on Kobe burger trumps the tiny three sliders. Go M-​F 4 – 6 pm & the slider’s are $ 8 instead of $ 10 whilst the Skyy & Tanqueray martinis are an affordable $ 5. Anyone ever tried a port martini? They’ll make a martini out of anything so be adventurous.

Former Top Chef Gene Villiatora serves as executive chef and the menu has been revised. My wife ordered blackened Ahi tuna with a Creole mustard butter. The tuna was visually gray rather blackened and visually unappealing, overcooked, tough and flavorless. In contrast, my grilled Pacific salmon glazed with white miso and pineapple was delicious. Our entrees came with bok choy and sticky rice covered with black sesame seeds that were pleasing to the eye, but both were served near room temperature

met here to start off a nice evening, we split the trio of kobe sliders prepared 3 ways and chicken tenders prepared mild. i devoured the slider with the arugula and goat cheese and sampled the one with portabello wine reduction along with delicately fried homemade potato chips. unbelievably savory. the middle kobe, fried wallaye was a hit with my midwestern date. tenders were basic bar fare. For $ 8 each for each appetizer, quite filling and reasonable. All of this was enjoyed amid dark cherry wood surrounds with working fireplaces, and a live, albeit intermittant band. Opted for corona over martinis this time to quench our thirst.

What a pleasant surprise! A local bar away from the strip that caters to a local crowd. Possibly a crowd like myself, who work in the service sector on the strip. My girlfriend and I have been going here on our way home to have late night drinks. We came the first time for a live band on a Saturday night. The bartenders/​servers are very inviting and attend to your needs without being overbearing. The atmosphere is warm and great for small or large groups. I look forward to watching sporting events here as they have big screens in the bar area.

Read a prior review mentioning that martini’s makes a decent slider — I’M THERE !
hit Martini’s for lunch today. 3 kobe sliders with ranch potato chips — $ 8. I also tried a cup of today’s soup — tomato $ 4. i resisted the temptation of $ 5 lunch martini’s (i’m not a big fan)
The soup was tasty — kinda thick but not too much cream — nice.
The sliders come with grilled onions and mustard — i added monterey jack.
The sliders — great ! about 1″ round, cooked medium, tender and juicy ! The monterey jack was a great addition. The chips were also very good .
I think it’s a heck of a deal for $ 8. service was very good.
definitely will try again when in the area !

Martini’s has a dark and classy décor but it was noisier than I had expected for this restaurant. This could be a good, casual atmosphere for the young single person though… I was disappointed in the selection of martinis offered at a restaurant/​bar called, uh, Martini’s. I would assume that was the owner’s last name because of the possessive apostrophe but the logo is a martini glass so one would assume they would have a wide selection of martinis. They have quite the variety of vodkas, however, so if you are picky on the vodka going into your drink, this is your place. For dinner I had the tomato and basil salad which was nice and fresh and my boyfriend had the filet mignon which he said was okay. My sister ordered 12 oysters on the half shell and I couldn’t believe how small they were. I was convinced one was empty! I would probably go back but this isn’t my favorite restaurant or anything.

OH HOLY MOTHER! Have you had their sliders!!! Went for their happy hour and between the four of us had almost every appy from the H.H. menu. I don’t understand why a place called Martini’s serves Vodka-​only martinis, though. I had the passion fruit vodka + bit of pineapple juice. Tasty. But now for the FUD:
Here’s the score so far: (best for last)
Shrimp — stay away. One of the worst things I’ve tried to eat — ever. Gak.
Wings — ah, just wings. Pass.
Grilled Cheese — must dip into the tomato bisque for the full effect. Good.
Nahos — wow-​big, tasty. ‘Nuf to share with 3 – 4 pals.
Chicken fingers — looked like slices of entire chicken breast — HUGE.
Calamari — HUGE and really good with the chipotle + peanut sauce.
SLIDERS!!! We had several orders of the ones with egg and another order with mustard… (pass on the blue cheese/​carmelized onion). I will come here again (and again, and again…) just get the luscious three-​to-​a-​plate-​mini-​egg-​n-​burgers-​from-​heaven. I wanted to kiss the chef. Seriously. He had me after the first bite. How can meat and bread taste like THAT??? My mouth is watering right now.
Sidenote: service is lame, but the sliders make it worth it. Happy Hour crowd seems consistent at the 50+ crowd. Seeing the elders get sloshed and gropey is on the sad side of entertaining, so just go, eat and enjoy; then adjourn to your real entertainment of the night.

We were greeted at the door by a very friendly, gorgeous woman. It was Thursday, 12÷18÷08. I just thought I would throw in the date just in case she sees this. That way, she’ll know I’m talking about her.
The estimated wait was 30min. so we were offered a seat at the bar. I had a wonderful Pino Grigio and my table mate had a Riesling. We were both very happy with that. The bartender was a voluptuous blond whose attire was… well, something you might want to see in the bedroom. I’m not kidding. It was black, laced up, busty, sexy, and God/​dess, she was hot.
After the previously established wait time, we were escorted to the dining room by the hostess who shared some banter with my friends before leaving us to peruse the menu. I had a seared ahi tuna without the bread and their potato spears, I suppose a fancy version of the French fry and they were very good. The only complaint I have is that because I requested my ahi rare, when they served it to me, it was stone-​ass cold. It’s cool though. It was a sushi-​grade ahi and it was delish.
The reason they get 4 stars is for the service and the friendly staff. Great job. Oh yeah, and the fact they didn’t charge us for the wine? That was an added little bonus.
Happy dining.

Martini’s specializes in trendy booze. They have a huge selection of whiskeys, gins, wine, premium spirits, and well over 100 kinds of vodka, my poison of choice.
They have a long list of specialty cocktails. One of my favorites is the pistachio chocolatey something martini. Its so heavy, its like a meal by itself. I get that thing for dessert.
We’ve been coming here on and off since it opened a year or so ago. This is one of my many afterwork unwind places.
It looks kind of fancy with its dim lighting, cherry wood, and leather trim, but really there’s something tacky about this place. I can’t put my finger on it. Maybe its the video poker machines on the bar. Still, its Las Vegas. You can’t get away from it.
The joint is separated into two sections by a partition: the bar and the lounge.
There’s always a range of clientelle here. Sometimes I see men smoking cigars. Sometimes I see the rockabillies. Sometimes I see trashy people. Then there’s us: sweaty kids that just got off work and want to drink themselves into oblivion. Depending on when you go, you can hit this place crowded or sparse. Either way, it seems like the bartenders are often overworked.
The food is pretty good, too. I always get the salmon wontons and my friend swears by the lamb chops. A little pricey, for the size of the portions.
One of life’s little pleasures is martini olives. Martini’s has a conucopia of martini olives. My personal favorite is the blue cheese-​stuffed olives. Runner-​up: garlic-​stuffed. They also have pepperocini, caper, uh … orange, I think. I don’t know. Just as for a martini with every kind of olive. Its like the only kind of salad alcoholics eat.
They just started a happy hour where everything — food, liquor, even bottles of wine — are half off Sunday through Tuesday, 11p to 1a. This is perfect for the nights I get off swing and want some smoked salmon with crème frais and caviar on a crispy wonton and a dirty martini. But its seems this new too-​good-​to-​be-​true happy hour special coincides with their portions getting smaller. Hm. Weird.
By the way, last night that dirty martini was all vodka and no dirty. But the best $ 4 buzz I’ve ever gotten.
* off the strip, non-​casino

Is it possible to give 6 star rating?!! If I could give one out, Martini’s would be my first one. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! My friends and I were there one evening and I swear 6 hrs there felt like only 1 (maybe it was the espresso martini’s I was having). So much fun… great crowd… both the bar and lounge area were packed with a variety of people from the laid-​back types to the executives with their ties loose and shirts unbuttoned (yum!)
The martini’s were excellent and they have so many to choose from. My recommendations are the espresso and the blueberry martini. Service was great… the bartenders were so friendly and even with a packed house were always there right in the nick of time before the martini glass was empty. +1 more star for the brave male bartender who wore my friend’s bra for 5 min while making his rounds after a dare (See what happens… too many martinis = feisty/​aggressive females)
As far as the food goes, I only delved into one app… the Nachos. Huge amount and piled high with toppings. My friend had the steamed crab and said it was good but had better. But really… who needs the food there when you have so much liquid therapy to attend to…
+1 more star for being my new favorite lounge to watch any game. A flat-​screen every 2 ft you look around with a different game on… I have found a little piece of heaven on earth.
