E-String Grill & Poker Bar

Super fun place! I went here for my 26^th birthday on a Saturday to get drunk and sing karaōke with friends. The KJ was awesome! They have a ton of songs to choose from. Bar tenders were nice and quick with the drinks. Typical bar atmosphere, I happen to like that. I had a great time. The regulars were nice and welcoming. 3 $ drafts after 11pm. Good place for a fun time. I will be back for sure.

Cool bar. Nice atmosphere! Food was superior to most bar food places in Vegas. Had a chicken sandwich that was excellent!!! I didn’t expect it to be. Drinks are reasonable and they poured heavy!!! Bathrooms were decent Was there for a comedy night and had a good time with my husband. Will definitely go back. Didn’t give it 5 stars because the booth we sat in was really damaged and was extremely uncomfortable. But that was the only drawback of the place. It had a dive bar feel without being too divey.

I used to come here on Saturdays for the Jazz for a college course I was taking but stopped because I started working on the weekends. Recently I went there to kill time on a weekday so it was pretty dead. Still, I got to meet a few people and have a couple drinks. I had the BLT and it was pretty good.
I think I spent a little less than $ 20 for two Blue Moons and a BLT plus the tip.
Overall the place is nice. It’s small, but not claustrophobic. The people who I’m assuming are regulars are nice and welcoming.
Some of the booths could use a renovation, and the bathroom had a stall and urinal out of order when I went.
⁴⁄₅ will go again…

Came here tonight with a couple fiends. It was the fourth or fifth time I have been here to sing some karaōke, I love this place. My DJ Paul kicked major ass, I have been here for Redd and A.C. Too and they are always great. Bartenders are nice and quick, place needs a facelift a bit structurally but it’s a real down home bar. Paul made my night, guy was really cool and helped me with everything I needed. Would recommend to anyone who likes a good hole in the wall

Honestly love this place! Environment so much fun and the bartenders treat you like long time friends. They let you sing whatever you want and are extremely fun about it. Anthony and George offer awesome service everytime I go! Ask for them for an awesome service :)

We stopped in a few years ago, on a Sunday, to watch football and E-​String quickly became our «go to» bar. We returned every Sunday after that because we LOVE Alicia. She always greets us with a smile and makes sure we have a drink at all times. When we have friends & family come in from out of town, they always ask if we are «Going to see Alicia». This is definitely is one of our FAVORITE local bars and we will keep going back as long as Alicia is there.

Love this place! Great music, good food, gaming and the ladies behind the bar are the best! It’s more than just a neighborhood bar… My hubby and I have gone here for over 5 years now and Alicia has become like family to us! She seems to genuinely know and care about all of her regulars… She even remembered my hubbys birthday and had a gift for him last time we stopped in! You dont do that for just anyone! As long as she’s there, we will be too!

This is one of my favorite neighborhood bars. Great music great food, just a Great atmosphere. Make sure you go see Alicia when you go. That women can make a drink. She’s just the sweetest woman and keeps it real. She host several events there as well to help raise money for cancer. Brings in home cooked food she made her self for her regulars. She really takes care of us. I will follow that woman to any bar she goes to. It’s hard to find real people who really care.

Been coming to this bar since I was 21 and have seen this place go through a lot of changes. The new management is doing a great job in bringing a good image back to this bar. My friends and I are loving the fact that everyone is like a family here. The KJ’s do a great job and always try to make sure that everyone gets to sing at least once on packed nights. The bartenders are extremely nice and keep level headed even when they are slammed and customers sometimes forget that it can be only one person behind the bar when it’s full and get upset but the bartenders still stay level headed and nice to everyone. I will keep this place my regular drinking place due to how great this place is.

I love E-​String! This place has been my go-​to for karaōke because it’s the only place that runs it seven days a week. It’s also set up with a great sound system (the acoustics at other bars are never as good). I also love the fact that you can request pretty much any song and they’re likely to have it. Paul and AC are such awesome KJs, and always know how to show us a good time! As for the bar, I always receive excellent service from both Daniel and Sonny! Very attentive, and they both work so hard. I love this place, and will be coming back!

I love this place. I go there for karaōke almost every week. The KJ Paul is very nice and always makes you feel like you did a good job even if you think you sounded horrible. He always announces who’s up next. The atmosphere is great and so is the service. I’ve been to other karaōke bars. This one is by far my favorite

I’ve been going to this place for a good time for about 6 years now. It’s honestly my favorite place to sing karaōke. They have a great song selection and there’s no KJ trying to DJ full songs in between singers.
There is also a lot of good talent that frequents this place. It’s really nice to hear people that can really sing well. The KJ’s (Paul, Red and A.C.) are all pretty stellar, talented people too. I really appreciate that they know how to tweak levels for various singer’s voices.
Some nights it can get busy but that’s just the way it is when you have so many singers. If it’s too busy, the bar area is more than accommodating. The bar staff gets thumbs up as well. I’ll miss this place if I move away. Cheers!

Im sorry but the kj (karaōke jockey) sucks. He puts people who pays more in front of paid customers. Wtf??? He said himself that whoever pays more gets to sing 1^st. Which is fuckd up cause we were waiting for 4 hrs to sing a song (1) so if you (kj) want to be that way. Fuck it. He works for tips. Don’t fucken tip him or any1 that works at e strings. Get better employees. Serious.

I am not usually one for writing reviews however with my experience last night, I believe it warrants a warning… Yes, Estrings is a busy spot on a Saturday night. So busy you are given a 4 hour wait to sing one song. Wait what??? Well, yes. I have been here times before with friends and we have had fun experiences. Last night was a joke… My friends and I were excited for a night out and met up there at 10 pm. We put in our songs and started the night with a round of drinks ready for the evening. Fast forward ahead 4 hours… My friends had left 2 hours into the night, 2 of them not even getting to sing their songs, we were watching and listening to others entering, singing, 2 – 3 songs then leaving… As we waited and waited. I got to sing 1 of the 3 songs within those 4 hours. Here is where the warning begins… I approached the Kj about the long wait and he immediately got defensive. I asked him about others repeatedly singing while we waited and waited. I guess we were not the «IN» crowd and he stated that it was such a busy night. I’ve been here times before on a busy night and had a great time being able to sing the songs we wanted. I then told him that I did give him a hefty tip. And then he proceeded to tell me that the men that sang many times gave him $ 40 dollars. I asked, wait, I come in and drop more money and I sing more? He states“well, that’s how I make my money.”… «I’m gonna stop talking now!», he then rudely dismisses me. I put my hands in the air and return to my seat. He then proceeds to come to me and return my $ 10.00 tip,!saying he didn’t need my money. I said that’s great because I will talk to the owner and or write a review. He then rudely said, «go ahead, I’m the best DJ here and he’ll back me up. Ya, you might be a great DJ, but what awful customer service … I thought that’s good, because I didn’t get to sing anyway, so he knew he didn’t deserve my tip. I then went to pay my tab with the bartender so we could leave, I mentioned my experience with him and was met with yet another rude remark, saying, well go ahead and do what you gotta do to make us look bad. My reaction to that was «what? Why are you so defensive? I had great bar service!» I told him. His demeanor changed as he tries to then shake my hand and asked my name… After that I decided he didn’t have to know my name because they would probably talk shit about me later … As I return to the Karaōke room, I see a woman, on stage, standing over a man who is laying on the stage, she proceeds to drop her pants in front of everyone showing her ass! Full moon. She repeats this 3 times !!! Shut the front door!!! It is time to leave I say to myself… So, I have been their repeat customer about 4 – 5 times, but will never return. Can I give any advice to the owner? Well, maybe teach your employees customer service!!!

I went there for a comedy show to perform and I had a great time. The guy who booked me was really cool and I came in nervous but I made a whole bunch of new friends #lasvegascomedy. I even tied for first place in the comedy contest. I would definitely come back to hang out and watch other Comedians and support Live Comedy. You rock E STRINGS!

OMG I LOVE THIS PLACE! Everytime I go it’s super fun. the karaōke is fun to do and the food is amazing for a bar themed establishment. I plan on going again pretty soon!!!

I love this place and my review for it is long overdue since I am a semi regular. I love coming here and just hanging out. They have a bar area, pool/​dart area and then of course, my beloved karaōke room. They even have a quaintly lit patio area by the bar for nights when it is not freezing cold outside.
The bartenders here are friendly, easy going and serve quickly. The bar also has amazing happy hour prices, I think after 11pm or so? and the drinks are stupidly cheap, which is good and bad because it makes it all the easier to get shit faced, as I have a time or two here.
The pool tables are tables with pool balls and pool sticks nearby. What else would you expect? They’re only a dollar a game, but if you don’t have quarters go get change at the bar.
The karaōke room is where it’s at! There are a few rickety tables (they literally wobble– I do not recommend sitting at one of said booths and slamming your drink/​hand/​phone/​etc. down because you will most likely spill your drink everywhere as I have done a time or two). The booths are comfy but for the love of all things semi intelligent– please do not sit in one if you are there alone. Because if you do I am going to seat myself and my friends there with you because that’s a fucking waste of room. The TV monitor things broke some what so now the audience can’t follow along with the lyrics as people sing, which is great for when you casually change/​fuck up the lyrics, no one will know! But the one the singer needs obviously still works. The KJ, Paul who is usually there, is the coolest dude. He’s super nice, pretty funny, and does a badass «Going to California» cover. Definitely a cool guy worth over tipping. Other KJs include Redd, who is cool if it’s still 1996, and Big Black Teddy, who is such a sweetie and a baller mofo for screamo songs, as well as any other things (he did Adele on Friday, even though no one wanted to cry at karaōke).
All in all, great venue. Karaōke usually starts around 9:30/10pm after the houseband wraps up and it’s usually pretty full of people on the weekends. It’s always a fun place to go to though, whether to meet people, get drunk, watch other people get drunk, listen to karaōke-​rs or sing yourself, it’s a place to visit for sure!

I love the bar’s cozy, friendly atmosphere and the regulars that hang out. This is the only bar that has karaōke nightly till 3 am or later, depending on the number of singers that are on rotation. Their song list is, by far, the most updated and most extensive among all the karaōke services at other nearby venues. AC was the KJ hosting Saturday night when I went there. There were about 50 singers in the queue, but he was very professional in handling the crowd and also demonstrated awesome technical skills with the sound equipment. (He made me sound good!!!)
If you have a case of stage fright or need to do some «vocal experimentation», best nights to pop your karaōke cherry or get some practice down would be Wednesday and Thursday nights. Their excellent sound system makes them a popular hangout for professional and amateur singers — it feels like a free concert sometimes.
Their kitchen also cranks out great bar food and is open late on weekends. Bar staff are very friendly and professional.

This is a mediocre bar, but a fab karaōke spot.
There’s two main areas — a long bar with video poker and a «restaurant» with booth and table seating. There’s also a couple of pool tables when you first walk in.
The bar area is on the smaller side. There’s TVs and gaming. It’s a typical Vegas bar. The bartenders are hit or miss on service. The beer offerings are decent.
The food menu is overpriced and contains the typical items you’d expect at any bar place. There’s no actual service in the «restaurant» /​dining area (at least during the week). You have to go to the bar to place your drink and food orders.
Of the food items, the most unique and tasty are the dirty wedges. Yum! Big potato wedges smothered in bacon, onions, cheese, gravy, and thousand island. They most definitely hit the spot after a few drinks. And they’re a large portion, so there’s plenty to share.
What is most awesome here is the karaōke. And they have it every night of the week! The KJ is probably the best I’ve experienced around town. The dining area is the perfect karaōke setup — there’s a stage and everything. The screens are large and the next 3 singers are displayed scrolling across the bottom of the screen — so you always know where you are in the lineup. There’s no songbook, but just ask the KJ for any song you want, he’ll probably have it. And we’re talking about obscure stuff I’ve never seen at any other karaōke spot ever. During the week, the crowd is on the smaller side, which means you can sing several songs in one night.
All in all, I’m a fan. It’s got a dive-​y feel without being overly grunge-​y. There’s a late night happy hour. The music theme is pretty cool. And the karaōke rocks.

I have several friends who have been coming to E-​String for years for karaōke.
I’m pretty die hard for one karaōke company here in town, so I don’t venture out to other karaōke joints often… I feel like I’m cheating on a lover!
So Friday night, my fella and I were all excited to head out to karaōke, when we found out the place we wanted to go doesn’t have karaōke on Friday nights anymore! For SHAME!
So we asked around, and I remembered that E-​String has karaōke every night of the week.
When I got there, about 9:15, it was pretty slow, but by 10:30pm, the place was packed! The bar and the karaōke area were completely full, and the queue to sing was about 30 people long! I haven’t been to a busy karaōke place like this in ages!
So, let me tell you about the KJ, Paul.
He was great. He’s got a great system that displays the next 3 singers on the screen, as well as announcing who is next, that way you don’t miss your turn.
He has a HUGE selection of songs, including some Imelda May that is hard to find.
Sound was good. Not the best I’ve heard at a karaōke bar, but the acoustics in the room are a little wonky too.
He was really fair with the queue, and like any host, if you tip, you can get moved up a bit.
The bartenders were great. Super friendly, and the drinks were strong, and pretty cheap too.
I can’t wait to go back!
