Food is always on point. Want to make an extreme shout out to our waiter Garrett!! He's awesome and very accommodating. Service with a smile even when he's under pressure on a Saturday night!! We will be coming back over and over with the service we received from Garrett!! Feel spoiled but that's what every customer wants right?? Anyways awesome experiences have to be shared!

Oh my goodness!! The food was so delicious! I had the brisket and I could not stop myself from finishing the plate and I was full! Food came fast,we were seated quickly and that was on a busy day. I cant wait to go back for our next date night!

I have been extremely critical about the other venues I've eaten at within pechanga's network of restaurants. So, coming from someone that did not like any of the other places, this one was on point. I opted for the steak and it came with crispy seasoned steak fries with an inverted bed of either arugula (or frisèe) that was lightly coated with dressing. Hiding under the greens was a textured dollop of chilled garlic butter resting on top of the beef. The steak was sizzling upon arriving to my table so it slowly melted the garlic butter which created a great added flavor that also ensured the steak remain moist and tender throughout the entire time I spent munching down each savory bite of this extra juicy piece of beef. If you don't like the extra butter flavor, you could easily slide it off the top but I can't imagine anyone wanting to do this. The burst of rich flavors was extraordinary. On the side included a house special sauce that complimented either the steak or the fries or both, if you so choose. It is a very unique sauce that has special ingredients which blend together very smoothly. The fries were perfectly seasoned and had that nice snap with every bite but kept that steamy mushy potato insides that nicely rounded off this circle of flavor overload. Really impressed. Everything was on point. On a side note. I've been to numerous steak houses in Vegas and LA. This one is easily in the top 5 if not the top. Funny bonus story : I would always laugh at certain steak houses that give a giant steak knife thinking this would impress the guest but when I was given a butter knife, I knew right away I was getting a good steak. Great steak should cut like butter so getting a crocodile dundee knife is basically saying the steak is tough and needs a sharp knife. In the high class steak world, giving a guest a sharp knife to cut steak is the equivalent to giving A1 sauce at a lower end steak house. You just don't do that. It's an insult.

Truly enjoyed this spot, had the pleasure of being welcomed in by Pedro, he was super warm and professional. Pedro recommended the pepperoni pizza 🍕 and the Cadillac Margarita, he was very knowledgeable with the food and cocktail menu. Get this guy behind the bar asap. We will be back

Restaurants inside the casino always open (holidays too) and open late so that is huge plus for us who don't really gather at home with family. Food was fast and excellent to the taste. I have beet salad and Brussel sprouts at different places but here at Kelsey is the best. Excellent chef's work on the menu, cook and presentation. Servers were quick and attentive. We felt well taken cared of at our dinner for New Year's.

I saw a new advertisement about the Loft Live (Comedian). There is an offer for dinner(select) and show for $49. Excellent offer. I suggested to our Home group and Kelsey's was able to accommodate 11 of us with no problem. I asked to reserve a table for 11 and they did not disappoint. We had our own room. We asked for a 5:00 pm seating as the 1st comedy show was at 7:00pm. In hindsight, I should have asked for a 4:00 pm dinner reservation...next time. Everyone enjoyed their 3 course dinner. Our server Tito was great. We also might try the Cantina next time! 🤙🏾💯🫶🏾✨🥰

I had an incredible dining experience at Kelcey’s Restaurant at Pechanga. I ordered the surf and turf, which came with a perfectly cooked 6 oz filet mignon, bacon wrapped shrimp, potatoes, and crisp asparagus. Every bite was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. Our server Oscar made the evening even better. He was friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared that we were enjoying our meal. His warm personality and excellent service made the experience feel extra special. If you are looking for amazing food, top-notch service, and a relaxing atmosphere, I highly recommend Kelcey’s Restaurant. I will definitely be coming back!

We couldn't have asked for a better dinner experience at Kelsey's. I love the industrial, modern yet cozy vibe of the restaurant. We started with some LOBSTER TEMPURA and they were amazing! Battered and deep fried lobster tails that were perfectly cooked. For our entrees, I had the RIBE EYE STEAK and El hubby had the SALMON. Both were delicious and again, cooked perfectly! We had a couple of cocktails and they were delicious too. The service we received was amazing! Dylan, was easy going and knowledgeable with the menu and answered our questions. He also checked on us a few times to make sure everything was good. FYI, the menu can be expensive depending on what food you order. But it was worth it in my opinion. Will definitely dine again!

After a long week of work, my family and I decided to go up to the casino to celebrate my birthday. While there, we got Kelsey‘s for lunch as I know they have a lot of great food options and beers on tap. (Full Bar). We had a party of six, so we got their chicken nachos as an appetizer, and it was delicious. I personally got their lobster mac & cheese, and it was very tasty, but a little heavy on the mac to lobster ratio. With that in mind, I still got a good amount of lobster. I started off with an Elysian space dust, and then made my way to a belching beaver, peanut butter, stout for desert. My dad ordered the chicken wings, my brother, ordered a burger, and his girlfriend ordered a salad. Overall, the meal was great and my parents got to use food credit that they had toward the meal. I will definitely be coming back to Kelsey‘s again. They have a friendly staff, very professional, and the atmosphere of the restaurant is cool, especially as they have a lot of TVs playing football.

Great service and scrumptious cucumber and tomato salad 🥗. Some changes on the menu but still pretty good. The French fries are to die for! With ringing slot machine around “let go Pechang”

Very classic American pub fare. Decent prices. We got the prime dip - delish, huge, more bready but the goods were good haha the lobster roll was, again, a bit more bready but the lobster itself was buttery and perfectly cooked. The fried pickles also had a perfect balance of breading to pickle ratio (hars to do with spears in our opinion) and the chipotle ranch should be smothered on everything. Ashley and Pedro at the bar were friendly and attentive. The seasonal gingerbread old fashion hit the spot, not too sweet with a cute little gingerbread cookie as well! Wasn't too loud or too quiet, lots of football going on. Very sports bar scene without being too much. And the food came out fast!

Update 11/5/21 - menu after Covid re-opening seems limited, but appealing. Beer battered sea bass reminds me of childhood fish sticks 😊 batter is still a bit soggy instead of crispy. Good food, average service on a Sunday night, a bit pricey for burgers and steaks

UPDATED: their menu is seasonal and changes. Head to their website for the latest menu. ORIGINAL: Food was great and the atmosphere fun. Bit loud but good music. No wait for a table. Took awhile to get our food and get drink refills but it was a busy Saturday night….I would still come again. Their menu has changed.

I give this place 5 stars for the steak sandwich. Probably the best I’ve ever tasted. And, the service was very good. Hate to take away 1 star, but here’s the deal…. I’m a purist when it comes to drinking an Old Fashion. That is, a quality bourbon, bitters, briefly stirred with ice, then served over a single large spherical or cubical ice cube. Not sure what happened the other night. My first old fashion was ok..just a little light on the bourbon, but otherwise a good drink, made correctly. The last old fashion came essentially as bourbon on the rocks…a glass full of ice cubes with some bourbon. When you’re asking patrons to pay $18 for an Old Fashion, you gotta make sure they are getting the real thing if you want them to keep coming back to your establishment. Still love Kelsey’s. But, I’ll have to send my drink back if this happens again.

First time here and had a great waiter.. we ordered our meals & the Flatiron Steak dinner *medium rare (as Flatiron steaks should be a great Tender cut NOT to be overcooked), steak arrived and looked good but was *well done(steak was drier and tough to eat) , I know the sauce on top but Dang! A little over top on the peppercorn .. I was disappointed in the steak but the rest of our meal and drinks were worth it, We'll give Kelsey's another try

The food was all right. Chicken wings weren't as crispy as I like. The street corn is fire !!! But the hummus is a little too garlicky. And I like garlic. I also ordered the coffee and it was brought to me in a picture so I can make my own refills. That was cool but the coffee was a little weak.

Got seated immediately. Was turned away from two other places as we didn’t reserve. Service from Garrett was very pleasant. I want to highlight how outstanding the young lady with long hair at the front door was. She was seating alone, she didn’t turn anyone away. The restaurant was busy and it’s all her! Food was good but the add on steak for the salad tasted a bit old(er) than the regular ribeye on the menu which was outstanding. We left happy and would return and DO recommend.

I recently visited Kelsey’s at Pechanga and had a great experience with the atmosphere and service. The decor is really well done—it has a sleek, modern feel with a nice touch of rustic charm that makes it very inviting. Our waiter was fantastic and incredibly efficient. Despite how busy they were, he checked in on us many times to make sure we had everything we needed. Just a heads-up: it gets very crowded on event nights, so I’d definitely recommend making a reservation beforehand to avoid a long wait. As for the food, it was a bit of a mixed bag. We ordered the baby back ribs, but they were unfortunately a bit dry and stiff; I was really hoping for that juicy, fall-off-the-bone texture. On the flip side, the fish and chips were surprisingly good and definitely the highlight of the meal. While the ribs didn't quite hit the mark this time, the great service and the quality of the other dishes make it worth another visit. It’s a solid spot to grab a bite before a show or a night on the floor, and I’d definitely come back to try more of the menu.

This is the sports place if you are looking to watch a game and eat some good food. Went here multiple times and really enjoyed this place. Ambiance is welcoming and open. Love the vibe of this place, bar is nice. Food is pretty good too. Got the nachos, Marguerite pizza, hot and crispy chicken sandwich, and supreme pizza. All were good, ranch is amazing!! Fries were kinda bland, pizza so good, sandwich was good but could use a sauce. I used ranch! Really enjoyed this place and I recommend! I will say don't go there if you're looking for great service. Servers are all different there but the guy we had the first night (Asian man) was not the friendliest and even just transferred us to someone else and never said anything.. we saw him the next night and still not the friendliest. Girl that we got transferred to was really nice, kylia was her name. She was attentive and seemed to care.

Food was good. It was one of the places that had less customers, so we sat fast. Menu is limited but has a good selection of items, my party included kids but the restaurant does cater for kids, kids menu and high chairs were offered promptly. Food prices are fair. Service was 5/5. Bar is pretty so I also suggest it for someone looking for a quick drink in a more relaxed setting. Restaurant did start getting busy around 6pm.

Nice bar. A Hendricks gin n tonic only 11.99. nice 👍. Had the jalapenos poppers. Good but not spicy. For dinner I had the short ribs. Very tasty and good manly sized portions. Had another gin n tonic and headed out

This place is very nice and our server was excellent. The prices aren't bad and they have a decent happy hour. The reason for the 4 stars is the food. It is ok, not great. The loaded toys are ok, the wings are ok, the philly cheesesteak was ok. The dessert was ok as well. I mostly go to these places for cocktails, and these were just ok also. Again, the service was amazing and if you are at Pechanga already, it will do, but I won't go out of my way to seek it out.

To keep the birthday celebration going, we swing by Pechanga and decided to have lunch at Kelsey's. There was a bit of a wait but that was due to the large party we had, but the staff was friendly and welcoming. Not trying to pig out, we all stuck to the appetizers alongside some fine beverages. Everything was delicious and handcrafted. The wings could of been larger in size, but all in all the food was delicious.

Our family trio decided to share a couple entrees to avoid useless leftovers. We ordered a slab of Baby Back Ribs and Fish & Chips. I had some ribs and they were very good, but nothing extraordinary. The Fish & Chips on the other hand were insanely delicious. Nothing like the awesome creation, the English Fish & Chips. This version includes small delicate pieces of crispy crunchy fish that literally melts in your mouth as you eat. The chips are standard steak fries. But, they are fried in a way that gives them a nice crunch when taking a bite. They are served with 2 sauces. You get Tarter Sauce and Chipotle Remoulade. Both are very tasty, and will keep you sauced up. Service was excellent. Our server was very friendly and served us with a smile.

Our first time eating here. The initial encounter with the guy that brought us our waters looked like he hated his job, he did not greet, he did not smile, he looked mean and hateful. Oscar our waiter he was nice and check on us. I had the brisket like food that was horribly dry had no moisture, my daughter got a steak and that was tender easy to cut and chew the softest steak ever I believe. My husband got the ribs and those were delicious as well. My entire combo meal was horrible! I would never eat that again. The pizza was delicious as well. $160 for four meals and no drinks just water.

We used to love this place, but they changed their menu. This place is great! We used to go there for a quick pizza when we were at Pechanga. Now, they took pizza off the menu and replaced it with flat breads. The pizza was fantastic: light fluffy crust was better than at any Italian restaurant. Flat breads are VERY forgettable. Nothing but fattening boring mediocre. Note to the chef: please bring the pizzas and grilled carrots back. They were the best items on the menu. Why replace something great with something mediocre? Flat bread is not healthier than a pizza. It just sounds fancier, but, in life, it sucks. Especially, after you add a super over-sweetened barbeque sauce to them. I guess we'll wait for the pizzas to return before we go back there.

I was very excited to try this wagu burger. It had great flavor however, I had to send it back twice because I ordered it rare and both times it was well and it also came back both times cold. It's a shame cause the flavor was there. But for that kind of money I don't know if I give it a second shot, because obviously they can't cook a burger properly.

We've been coming here mostly for the ribs, burgers, rueben pastrami sandwich and steak fries for years, but won't be returning any time soon. The head chef (according to our server) is responsible for drastically changing up the menu - food AND increased prices. Tonight we planned on ordering the full rack of ribs, but it's no longer on the menu. It used to cost $4 more than the half-rack which is now the only ribs offering. We usually order the cheeseburger but it's been replaced by a "CHEF’S WAGYU BURGER", "THE HANGOVER" burger and a "MESSY COWBOY". All three sound messy. The rueben pastrami sandwich which I order every other visit - has disappeared from the menu. The ribeye steak for 2 is almost as expensive as two ribeyes in Pechanga's upscale Great Oak Steakhouse. I mean, come on, chef - it's a basically a sports pub! Needless to say, the place was almost empty - minus long-time customers (us) - as will be your wallet should you decide to stay. So long, Kelsey's and good luck, Chef!

bad service and bad food. Got the Brussels spouts app and it seemed like it was leftovers in a bowl. Nachos not great either. Service was horrible. We ordered and someone came by and said they were from the day shift so we needed to pay and order again for the night shift. Then then the night shift came to work and ignored us and never came back til we had to ask for our check to leave

This place finally opened today !! We were so happy ! But they let us down big time . The young waitress was prompt, but had no clue about the menu. I asked her about the posole soup .. and she said she “didn’t eat that stuff”, but assured me it had some kind of meat . Well.. we ordered the burger and the margarita pizza. The burger bun was toasted to the point of being crumbly .. As well as the fries being very overdone …. The pizza was slimy and none of the cheese or toppings would stay on 😐. The flavor was not horrible, but something was off.. and we had to eat the crust separately from the cheese and toppings . The menu is very small right now, and still these items were not done well at all. Hope things get better .

Not what I expected. There were 5 bartenders standing around and one even eating behind the bar and it took almost 10 minutes to get a draft beer after I ordered one. Not sure who is in charge there but they need to do a better job managing their team. When we were there there was more staff on duty than customers yet the service was poor. It almost felt like they could care less if they had anyone dining there at all. It is a nice bar and a great place to watch the game. It’s too bad the staff does not realize the customers expectations. The food quality was below average for the price. If you are going to dine at Pechanga please try another restaurant. All the others live up to your expectations and the service is top notch.

Don't know what was going on in the kitchen but that meal did not meet Pechanga standards. We ordered baby back ribs that were overly seasoned with a nasty rub. I should have taken a photo to explain my comment. That will never happen again. The group sitting next to us heard us make a comment to the waiter and chimed in about their dissatisfaction with their meals also. The pre made sandwiches at the coffee bar would have been a much better choice. It will be a long time before we try Kelsey's again.

The music was so loud that you had to scream to have any kind of dinner conversation with your table. The live band was great but it really could have been turned down just a little bit so that you could hear the conversation. If you want to just go for drinks and music, fine, but no conversation! The waiter was attentive at first and then disappeared. I asked for bread which we were charged for with an entree of pasta/shrimp. It was very rich and needed the bread but I did not get it until I was finished with what I wanted to eat of it, so that was a waste. Also, ordered a second glass of wine that didn't show up until I was finished with the meal. Wish we had gone to the Great Oak. Always wonderful there. Very disappointed compared to past visits at Kelsey's.

This used to be my date night spot but not anymore. It saddens me that the last four times I've come here I ordered the same thing because it's my husband's and my favorite meal here. When bringing it out to our table it was cold and us waiting over 35 minutes just for it to arrive cold makes me not want to spend my money here anymore. However, the burger is one of the best burgers I've tried in a long time.

On 12/21/ 2023 we were seated quickly, as the restaurant was empty. Once seated, we watched 4 employees socializing at the bar area and not recognizing us seated at an adjacent table. For approximately 10 minutes we sat, without any contact. The waiters were obviously in deep conversation and two waiters looked our way but still no contact. An employee, not a waiter, came by and asked if we wanted water, in which he left towards the rear of the bar area. At the 10 minute moment, we left and contacted the female who seated us and advised her of the poor service. She wasn't concerned nor was apologetic to my concerns. But she did say "Thank you!" Being visitors to Pechanga, I will avoid this restaurant on future visits.

Went in for Super Bowl party/buffet was told at door by 2 hostesses that food would be available until 10 PM. We also confirmed with server so that we could eat after the game as we had eaten right before we went in at 3 o'clock. They shut the buffet off 2 hours and fifteen minutes early!! So $48.00 a person included poor service to get a drink and NO food. When we spoke to the manager, she told us we had plenty time to eat and she could do nothing for us. VERY POOR SERVICE!!!

It was a long wait for my order, 45 minutes. As I checked the items in my hotel room there were missing items (baby back ribs & corn bread), I had to go back for it. Next is the Spicy Chicken Sandwich, it was burnt & dry. My experience wasn’t good at all.

Came to eat was not told they closed the kitchen at 10 we ordered like at 9:50 rude security comes up to us as we're sitting waiting for our food and rudely says "yall hanging out or leaving" and I was confused since we had just ordered. I guess it turns into s bar/club after 10. It was our 1st time here. NOT A GREAT 1ST IMPRESSION. I ordered chicken nachos there was no chicken.
