Nice little Irish restaurant in the casino. We visited on St Patrick’s day. The place was insanely busy with people everywhere in full party mode. There were two Irish bands at opposite ends of the exterior patio doing some kind of Irish battle of the bands. It was very entertaining. Eventually we ended up at a nice table inside and ate some very good food, I had the bangers and Mash, and my wife had the Celtic Chicken. For beer we sampled the Guinness. Not bad.

Ok, so the beer is mundane. It get’s crowded and noisy. But when they throw down what looks like a door and the barmaid does clog dancing, you have to say it’s entertaining.

I just wanted to go somewhere to eat. This was the only place for blocks that had decent grub. Had the Irish Stew and the Shepard’s Pie, Awesome! The beer selection consists of Guiness (of course), Murphy’s and Harp. Basic. But in a town that sells BMC in 24oz cans for a $1 on the street to Frat Kids and Bachlorette Bitches, It is a find!!!!

Not really a beer bar, but a nice looking establishment nonetheless. Not much bar seating, but the restaurant seating was plentifull. They only had six taps going when I was there, and all of them were of the British, Irish, or American macro variety. Not worth going out of your way for if you’re looking for good beer.

The expected beer selection including thier own labeled stout. The food was excellent. My wife and I shared a number of appetizers.

Upscale restaurant with an authentic irish feel. A couple interesting beer twists, but wouldn’t go out of the way to just go here.

Nice restaurant/bar atmosphere. Not much of a beer place but it does now carry a "house" stout from Sin City BC which is worth trying. The menu looked good and the food smelled good, I didn’t get to try any though. A decent place to have a drink, although most of what they serve are your typical "Irish" bee

Not really a beer place, Has a vaguely "Irish" feel, but had only 6 beers on tap. But is did seem rather cozy, for a place that was in the middle of a casino.

Located in the New York-New York casino on Las Vegas Blvd, Nine Fine Irishmen is in the &quo;city&quo; (complete with smoking manhole covers) and is an upscale Irish restaurant/bar. I visited during a normal lunch time and the place was not very busy at all.

Inside there is the typical atmosphere you see at any Fado-type americanized Irish pub. Folksy knicknacks among a lot of green. The bar is along the left side of the establishment.

The beer selection was no real surprise. Guinness, Murphy’s, Kinsale, Smithwick’s etc. Nothing you can’t find at a myriad of non-Irish places. Still, it was better than the beers found at the majority of other places in the casino, and you are allowed to take the overpriced ($6/pint) beers outside the pub.

The service was decent, but again they were not busy.

I didn’t try the food, but the menu boasts a lot of the Irish-American fare you would expect. Worth a stop if you are in the casino, but otherwise you aren’t missing much.
