Terrible’s Road House

Terrible’s Road House Restaurant in Pahrump, Nevada it great… they have a great breakfast, and for an example of (Chicken Fried Streak) most places we’ve been throughout Nevada is frozen… not here at the (Road House), is is the real thing… cooked to order, and it is great… and all of their breakfast options are great… and the lunch and dinner is great too… we love it here, and if you get a chance, try their (Catfish Dinner) it is great, and so is the (Prime Rib)…we recommend this restaurant, they do it right.

New review! I had the worst hamburger 2 days ago. I ordered the smashed burger with fries, the burgers meat had a sour smell had to send it back and the fries were burnt and consisted of stubby little pieces of greasy burnt things. The waitress had to be dumb as rock because she acted like there was nothing wrong with the food. Having been a cook myself years ago there would be no way in hell that I would have served a customer such garbage. I’m thinking of calling the health department regarding the sour smelling meat. If and when you do go there to eat just be weary of what you order. By the way, so far the breakfasts have been great their one saving grace. One more thing don’t order their chicken wings they’re dry and hard and taste awful.

I love love this place good pulled pork good burger, good breakfast ~ I will be back but I live in mass so it will be a while unless Mr. terrible flys me back ~ thanks

Just ate the Hawaiian Special. It had bbq short ribs and bbq chicken. I love the short ribs, the chicken was ok. The mac salad and rice was ok. Over all I will be back next Tuesday for more.

they are slipping. The last two times I have had the brisket it was very fatty and that isn’t the way it is supposed to be. I will wait a couple of months and try it again. if there is no improvement then I will not be going back. maybe the got some fatty brisket from their supplier but I think they should be sending it back.

This place is pretty good! The kc bbq sauce was my favorite sauce! I got the two meat plate. The ribs were good but didn’t have as much meat on there, the pulled pork was delicious, the potato salad was kind of sour (kind of weird), and the mashed potatoes were great. (: the fried Mac n cheese is a must! I’ll come back here if I ever come back to Pahrump! The only thing I didn’t really like was the service. The girls were kind of snotty and looked bored too.

The name describes the food. Just terrible. Very smokey. Pulled pork was almost cold. Mac n cheese. Bad too

My brother and I went for breakfast this morning. The eggs where cooked perfect.
Unfortunately my bacon was buried an hash browns where greasy.

3^rd time was not the charm. Other 2 times, food was cold and not tasty. I mean, how can you make chicken strips taste bad? This time, the Sausage Hot Link looked bad and tasted worse (brought home in doggie bag as we thought it must be dog food. Dog said, «Thanks, but no thanks.»). Coffee was cold. Asked for hot coffee. Took 20 minutes and was cold again! Fries were burnt and frozen?! Burger was okay. Chicken Fried Steak chewy and cold in middle. No refills on drinks. And just a side note: Waitress with long hair hanging all over the place — nasty!
Will not return while this mangement in charge (assuming someone is actually in charge)!!

Try the barbecue brisket or pulled pork. Both very good. It’s one of the few places that still serves liver and onions. Very tasty. The dining area is nicely decorated, clean and spacious with booths and tables.

Came here during Brisket night, 2 for 1 for $ 9.99. Well, the brisket was pretty good and I got two sides of fries. You can’t go wrong with that. My husband got a side of fries and green beans, he wished he just got the fries too.
They have a small salad bar with the normal fixings, I had that. Very tasty when you want something green.
Bathrooms are part of the casino, so they don’t count in the review. Considering this is in a casino, it is not smoky. The décor looks like the spent some money, and a small plane with copper pipes around and a gorgeous ceiling round out the view.

My wife and I have eaten there several times now and we have tried to give them the benefit of the doubt however, the food and service is just not what is expected from a otherwise nice casino. Cheap paper menu, plastic cup for our beverages, silverware was bent and cheap. And then there was the food. It was a gamble at best. Sorry but we give up. We will not be back.

We didnt have any idea of what to expect when we decided to eat here. Pleasantly surprised! Service was top notch, food was really better than expected, Porterhouse, chicken fried steak and fried chicken meals we had ordered were excellent. Beer was ice cold. Will go back next time I visit Pahrump.

The art of the cheap shrimp cocktail is dying.
First the Strip left it behind, along with reasonable buffets. Then Fremont… Though you can still play black jack for less per hand than it costs to feed a family of four at taco bell, there are no more cheap shrimp cocktails. Then the «locals» joints… Station casinos, first, and over time, even the smallest places forgot it. Pahrump, (and small, locally patronized casinos which dominate small town horizons all over nevada) were the last hold out of good, cheap shrimp cocktails. But prices have steadily climbed.
Moonshiner’s, in the Terrible’s Roadhouse, is fighting to keep the dream of the cheap shrimp cocktail alive. And, at least within the confines of their pleasant, interestingly decorated dining room, they’re winning.
It’s delightful. For a dollar fifty, you expect a single, sad shrimplet, crying tears of watery, bland cocktail sauce, brought to you by a salty old broad with one eye and a bad attitude.
Nay. A bevy of succulent wee shrimp morsels, bathed in gloriously spiced (but not TOO hot) cocktail sauce over a bed of cool, crisp lettuce arrives in a traditional flute, in the game of a smiling, conversational waitress.
That’s only the beginning.
The happy lass will then ferry over any number of other appetizers, each more succulent than the last (I recommend the Crispy Pork Nuggets, which will satisfy your inner adventurer with tangy, sweet sauce, while calming any fears of difference or spontaneity with its homey, smiley familiarity), followed by an entrée that would be right at home in any mom and pop, labor of love bbq joint. Malty, moist, perfectly sauced pulled meats? Of course. Hot links and grilled chickens? Yup. Brisket? You gotta be kidding, the stuff’s made to please angels. Don’t like bbq? One of the best fish sammiches I’ve ever had, right here in Pahrump. Hand smashed, perfectly breaded chicken fried steak (that’s well worth the extra ten minute wait) is just down the road. Burgers? While I dismay at the notion that you’d pass over the excellent specialized fair for a mere burger, they do their level best to ensure the word «mere» is not appropriate, press grilling patties to perfection and offering a wide range of the usual, and more unorthodox, toppings.
And the sauce! What quality, what variety! Like any good bbq, there’s Carolina, Memphis, Texas, Honey, and more! All on par or better than fair you might drove over an hour to sample.
They pour a damn good Jack Daniels too.
So don’t let the «Pahrump Casino» locale put you off. Brave the walk through the slots to find a nice, quiet, tasty meal with some good friends, and enjoy one of the best restaurants around. Not just in Pahrump, but anywhere.

We’ve eaten here a couple of times now — a couple of dinners and a breakfast. We had no complaints — the food was priced well and delicious. We also like the casino — great selection of slots and we’ve done well on them. This is our favorite casino in Pahrump.

Really slow service, drinks stayed empty for a long time, it seems like our waitress was inexperienced. Had the pulled pork, it was fatty and bland, edible when covered in barbecue sauce. We won’t be coming back.

I’ve ate here a couple of times when I made trips to Pahrump from Las Vegas for softball. I haven’t experienced any issues with the service or the food yet. We normally go and eat late at night being that its 24 hours and they have a cheap shrimp cocktail that is bomb but I really enjoy that Barbeque Burger that they have to offer.
I’ve always experienced exceptional customer service during the graveyard shift so I am unsure about how long the wait is during the day or what the customer service is like but I haven’t had an issue yet which is what this review is based on.
The value is decent against the quality of the food I’ve seen some other places in Pahrump way over priced for the quality of food they bring out to your table but this seems to be a decent value!
This is located inside of a casino so the parking is awesome as its easy to find a spot and they have plenty of space for you to choose from. This place also seems very modern for Pahrump.

Went to go have the Father’s Day special. Was told there was a waiting list and it was going to be 45 minutes. Didn’t have a problem waiting. But what made me made it that seated a couple that wasn’t even on the list. So I asked the host why did she seat them they weren’t on the list. And then she got an attitude with me. I got a seat order my special but to find out it wasn’t what I wanted. It was supposed to be prime rib and they ran out and now asking brought out porter house steak. It was ok but not what I was wanting.

Had salad bar with soup. Salad bar was fair-​blue cheese dressing watery. Soup however, was luke warm. Very disappointing. Soup would have been good had it been hot. Service was good. BBQ smelled good but just wasn’t hungry enough to order any.

We ate here a few days ago and the lunch was great. Had pulled pork and briscut sandwiches. BBQ sause was perfect. I would recommend this to everyone
