Sticks Tavern — Restaurant in Henderson

We moved to Henderson about 6 months ago and love it! We continue to try new places and since we love Water Street, we decided to give Sticks Tavern (ST) a try.

We went on Sunday evening and expected ST to be empty. We were surprised to find the bar area crowded and while there were some side tables and outside tables available, we decided to wait for a bar seat (always our preference)

We were greeted as we approached the bar and a young lady named Shaina came over, took our drink orders and advised us to wait a moment as a couple at the bar were leaving.

Shaina seated us and was quick to wipe everything down. She ran over the specials with us and passed us a couple of menus. ST is decorated like most of the sports type bar/restaurants we've been to and was spotless. They do have gaming stations at the bar but we aren't gamers so we can't give any advice there..

The menu has a lot of suggestions but we weren't starving so the Mrs. went with a house salad with chicken ($17.00) and I ordered the patty melt ($16.00). We enjoyed talking to the other patrons as we waited and Shaina was joking with all of us. She was quick to handle any request and added a lot to our evening.

The food was delivered in no time. The salad was very fresh and the Mrs. was pleased. My patty melt and fries were so hot I had to wait a few minutes to get started. No complaints here!

The food was delicious and from what we could see around the room, everything coming out of the kitchen looked great. My patty melt was perfect - the grilled onions were so tasty and the bread griddled just right.

We were having so much fun with Shaina and the other customers that we stayed long after finishing our meal. She kept our drinks filled and we even tried a special shot they had that night - very tasty!

We were thrilled with our newest find on Water Street and would recommend ST to anyone. We recently saw where they are running a Wednesday night special with wine & pasta - we will be giving that a try.

We want to give a big THANKS to Shaina for a wonderful evening and the food, drinks and laughs. Also THANKS to all the Sticks Tavern Staff - ya'll rock! We will be...

Came to visit the “Hawaiian Dancing Queen”Bartender, Lala at her new spot on an early Saturday night. I was presently surprised that this was a family friendly gaming restaurant so the hubby and I could enjoy perfectly crafted beverages coupled with good eats for us and our baby girl.

She was crafted a raspberry temple that was perfectly refreshing and bottomless. The hubby got his usual drink but then was introduced to a new, smoother whiskey that is his go to now. I got my usual, Kansas City Ice Water.

They got burgers with fries to eat while I got steak frites with fries as well. The burgers were good and not burnt. They loved the buns that were toasted but not hard and had a fresh taste. My steak frites were cooked to perfection and so juicy- medium well; they were accompanied by chimichurri sauce that the frites were settled in along with a handful of fries. None of our fries were greasy and all the food was full of flavor.

Service was good. Seating was open/first come, first serve. Our waitress was great but appeared to be busy with most of the other tables. Between her and Lala we were never without anything.

The ambiance was good. The crowd was mixed in ages, a live band was playing songs, the TVs were on as well. There was bar seating, gaming at bar available, unisex bathrooms (2), table seating, and booth seating as well. Parking close by off of Water...

Went there on a Wednesday night and they were having some kind of trivia game going so it was very loud. We ordered poutine and greek feta fries for appetizers. The poutine was not very good. The gravy looked like gelatin and was overly salty. The cheese curds were pretty good. The Greek fries were a little disappointing but better than the poutine. Then we ordered the southwest burger and the fried chicken sandwich. The burger was very good if you like really spicy, but somewhat over priced in my opinion. The chicken sandwich was not as good. Not bad, but again for the price, I've had much better.

The service was good, our server was friendly. The menus we were given were dirty with catchup smears, etc...as were the salt and pepper shakers. We just felt the place could use a clean up. All the tables are around the bar and there are signs posted that say, "No smoking or vaping." A woman sitting at the bar was vaping while talking to the bartender, so it's clearly not enforced. I'm pretty sure the woman vaping also worked there. It wasn't terrible but probably won't be back given all the other choices on...
