Music selection was not set up to get the crowd dancing and if your a single male don't go! You have to sit at the bar and can't get up to dance or even meet people. Only if your approached can you get up to socialize with that couple only. How are we supposed to meet people?!

Me and my boyfriend came for the first time not too long ago . Extremely laid back environment . Very friendly, helpful and informative owners . Everyone was very respectful. The bartender did a great job and the drink prices are extremely reasonable. We’ve been back once and are definitely looking forward to our next visit.

Last night was our first time at CE. We had a wonderful experience. We are very new to this and felt welcomed and respected. Thank you Gail and Peewee!!

owners where very very rude as a single male was told to sit a table and not to move, like a child, when i asked if i herd him correctly he garbed me by my shoulder and tried to start an altercation. then he said he has trouble all the time with black men i can see why, but I'm not your average black man I wouldn't recommend this place at all. i cant see how they are still in business

It is such a friendly place. Great bar tenders, and as a single female I feel safe at all times. Any issues you may have, just talk to the owners and they are more than happy help you any way they can.

Prostitution is not legal in Las Vegas or Reno. In the United States prostitution is mainly a matter of state law, and selling and buying sex are crimes in every state except in licensed brothels in some rural Nevada counties, and except that Maine (since 2023) no longer punishes selling. Nevada bars brothel licences in any county of 700,000 or more people, which is Clark County (Las Vegas); Washoe County (Reno) bans them by ordinance. Federal law adds the Mann Act (taking a person across state lines for prostitution) and, since FOSTA-SESTA in 2018, a crime of running a website with intent to promote or facilitate the prostitution of another person; Section 230 no longer shields such sites from state prosecution or civil sex-trafficking claims. Backpage was seized in 2018 and its owners prosecuted. Source: Prostitution Laws (prostitutionlaws.org), https://prostitutionlaws.org/countries/united-states/, reviewed 2026-11-03, CC BY 4.0.
