Nightlife in Las Vegas can be a little overwhelming, especially for people like my husband and me who would rather have a quiet drink and some good food rather than go to one of the more…how shall I say this?…over-the-top(less) clubs and bars that fill Sin City. However, we recently discovered T-Bones Chophouse and Lounge, which is just our speed.
Fire, water, and plenty of comfy seating
I first went to the lounge for a tweet-up prior to the 2012 Blogalicious conference. Sitting outside by the fire on one of the comfy couches, I knew I would return sometime with my husband.
Sure enough, it was only a few days later when we went to T-Bones for their happy hour (Sun-Thurs). We didn’t want a big meal, just a few snacks and a drink or two.
We started our late-afternoon inside at the bar. The bartender recommended the Peach Palmer, which was fantastic! Not too sweet and with a hint of tea flavor, this is a perfect summer or early-fall drink for those who want something light and refreshing.

We also ordered two items from the Happy Hour menu: beef sliders and the cheese plate.

After devouring our food, we headed outside to the lounge area. Sitting on the couches near the fire with the beautiful Red Rock pool within easy gazing distance, we enjoyed a couple more drinks, including a Twisted Margarita. Tart with a hint of pineapple, this drink is perfect for those who want to venture beyond the traditional beverage.

Overall, we had a nice time at T-Bones Chophouse and Lounge. I have a feeling we’ll be back again the next time we have an opportunity to enjoy a parent’s night out.
We tried T-Bones just after it opened, and while the food was good, the service was horrible. We kind of chalked it up to their newness and thought that maybe we’d give them a try again later on. Glad to hear that things have improved. I’ll have to make a return visit.
