Rae’s Restaurant & Lounge

for Joni !! She is an absolute delight. Rae’s is a favorite go to breakfast location of mine and Joni is a major reason why. She is always friendly, and personable, helping many customers with ease… and humor. Joni is such an asset to Rae’s…a great compliment to to the excellent food.

Wish I had something positive to say. The bartender was so rude! Don’t waste your time. We we will never go back…

Shiurie, the day shift bartender tues-​fri, lights up this dark bar. She’s always moving, always smiling and always making people’s day. The food is consistently good and their French onion soup is salty and cheesy in the most perfect way.
The salads are big and filling and the veggie omelette is my go-​to breakfast. Stop in sometime for breakfast or lunch and leave happier!

Worst Thanksgiving meal ever. They used a turkey roll instead of real turkey. Everything was covered in the gravy which had so much salt, inedible. Pumpkin pie was barely defrosted, service was good but I felt ripped off for such poor food. Yuk!!!

Can always count on a great meal here, have been a frequent for years. Close to home for us, great food and great service. This place is a great hidden find. Check it out!

Country fried steak is good here very good very friendly and polite in professional waitress

The food was never spectacular and the service is appalling. I was wanting to play a machine that no one was on and the manager told me that it was «reserved for real players, not people who play coins». I have come here twice before and dealt with this ornery bartender/​manager before and her behavior was conducive of this «your money isn’t worth it» attitude despite playing between $ 20 and $ 100 at a time, and ordering food by her suggestions. Don’t waste your time or money on this grungy, crass, hole-​in-​the-​wall. Pts downs the street will at least treat u with respect.

Rae’s takes way to long to get there food to the table. The owner and waitress where very nice but we waited an hour for our food to get to are table this is not a place for a quick lunch at all

Awesome service, food and prices. Thoroughly enjoyed our most recent visit. Have been there before and will certainly return. From hostess to server to barkeep, kudos everyone.

I’ve been eating there for over five years. When I first walked in, I was really glad to find the seating was very comfortable. The waitress — Joannie — very attractive, pro & attentive. One of the best waitresses I have ever run into. Luckily, I actually met the chef a couple of times. A friendly, conscientious guy who really knows how to cook up a GREAT steak! They have a steak & egg breakfast special. The steak is really good quality. I once tried the fried chicken at lunch It was really tasty and full of flavor. Dinner was really great too, I went on a night they had prime rib. It was excellent. When at the bar, I took a shot at their basic hamburger. it was large, with veggies, really tasty — reasonably priced. Also, they serve cocktails and it’s open 24 hours.

Loved this place. Filet and lobster special for $ 24.95. Perfectly cooked. Plus you get potato of your choice or rice pilaf, veggies and soup or salad. Their prime rib is also excellent. Friend had chicken piccata and bragged about. Happy hour prices for alcohol.

Decent service, decent food. Just the right amount of food. Didn’t care for the coleslaw though. A little bland.

Too bad we don’t live in Henderson anymore! Raes was our spot to drink reasonably priced good drinking wine and of course brunch! Their steak and eggs and corned beef hash are my fave. Decent prices and good food

I love this place I have been going forever to occasionally grab food but the lady sitting at the table eyeing you coming in is not so cool even though the food is great its the only place I constantly get chicken fingers with ranch and a side of the hot sauce even though I am an adult!!! But the comments about the owner seem accurate as well as the service so I must love the nostalgia it gives me but I still come to this places pence in awhile but for the same price there are definitely funner places with at least equal food and better service and no old lady eyeing you up and down when you walk in!!!

The prime rib was so small that is wasnt worthy of a sandwich slice let alone a main protein on the plate. The rice had such hard pieces in it that I almost chipped a tooth. Have been good customers for 3 years but we sadly will not be back again…

You know, I’m surprised over these other reviews.
Sure the layout is bit awkward, the lighting is always a tad bad, and the negotiations needed to grab a table is a bit disappointing, but I do love me some Rae’s.
First off, it’s a Bar and Grill. And it’s always pretty empty when I’m there. The owner/​lady is always sitting in the same booth going over whatever owners/​ladies do in a restaurant. I don’t know if it’s unprofessional, but it is a little poor in taste seeing her on a phone with stacks of paperwork in front of her — and it’s one of the first things I saw.
I’ve frequented this place dozens of times because the food, despite the fact that it’s a Bar and Grill, is severely underrated. I’ve had the chicken fingers, the taco salad, the tuna melt, the hamburger (with bleu cheese crumbles is the way to go), the fish and chips, and prime rib: all are very good. All are well flavored. Put it this way: I’ve never had something here I didn’t like a lot.
Speed of service isn’t terrible, but it can work in your favor if you have nowhere to be. A gripe here is the cups. They are so small (12 ounces-​ish) that I feel like I’m at the kid’s table. Wouldn’t be a problem if A) I wasn’t thirsty ever again or B) the waitress was more attentive.
All of this to say: Is it my favorite place? No. Would I want to frequent it every day? No. But based on how close I do work to Rae’s, it’s not bad. And I usually leave there (despite the atmosphere and mediocre service) pretty satisfied. Try it out? Could be good.

Raes food and service are awful. I have gone there since 1995 and it’s gone downhill. The owner is a very mean and nasty old lady. Food quality and value are poor!

Stay away unless you are 87 years old or you enjoy awful food.
