The Back Alley Bar Review

The Back Alley Bar is the kind of place where everything you love, everything you want in a bar, comes together to form one perfect place to throw back a drink.

First, there are women. Not just other customers (though there are those, too), but women that serve as "dancing beverage servers." If you're not familiar with Vegas parlance, "dancing beverage servers" means pretty much exactly what it sounds like. Women, serving beverages, dressed in daisy dukes, that also periodically dance on the bar. Aren't you glad we explained that?

Then, there's the alcohol. The Back Alley Bar runs a lot of drinks specials (and runs them through the weekend -- a true rarity) while also offering some great deals on pitchers of beer and margaritas. Plus, they have their own version of bottle service -- a bottle of Jack Daniels and a pitcher of Budweiser for $99, which isn't too shabby if you ask us.

Completing the sacred bar feature trifecta is food. The Back Alley Bar serves up the same kind of grub you would get from a street vendor in Mexico -- which is to say, delicious and easy Mexican food (including what the bar calls "The Best Street Tacos This Side of Mexico"). It's all reasonably priced and we mean that -- for just a couple of bucks you can get a taco or some shrimp.

The Back Alley Bar is open most of the time (it's closed for only a few hours on weekdays) and that adds a whole new level to its draw -- it's ready when you are. So if you're looking for good food, good drink and more than a few pretty girls, head over the Back Alley Bar.
