Cadillac Ranch celebrated its grand opening at The Legends in Sparks on Friday, August 7.  After dinner and hitting Hot August Nights (ie-Freezing Cold August Nights in 2009!) we thought we’d swing by the area’s newest bar to check it out.  A bunch of our friends we already there and I’m generally a big fan of new places.

Oops. Spelling Error.

Oops. Spelling Error.

Cadillac Ranch was immediately, and I mean IMMEDIATELY, disappointing.  They apparently think that they are worthy of charging cover (really? Cadillac Ranch is just a bar…and there was no band…?) for patrons to enter their sidewalk gate. Only to have to stand at the bar for 15+ minutes waiting for one of the many snobby bartenders to even acknowledge my presence.  The kicker was that at around 17 minutes I received my check, but still hadn’t received our drink order.  Cadillac Ranch…really?

Being that we had to wait such a long time for the first drink, we didn’t bother going after another and were gone within the hour.  It was fun to see some friends and take a look at people riding the mechanical bull, but good customer service is what would bring me back to Cadillac Ranch, and they definitely came up very, very short.

I am, however, looking forward to checking out Rack & Pinz next door to Cadillac Ranch, and to the Forever 21 opening!

Update:
I was so annoyed I even yelped.
