Bar Rescue - The End (Underworld Grill and Bar) Update

Photo - Facebook
On tonight's episode of Bar Rescue, Jon Taffer and crew are headed to Las Vegas, Nevada to rescue The Underworld Grill and Bar.  The Underworld is a "horror" bar run by two former rock musicians that is in need of some help.  During the makeover, Bar Rescue decided to change the name of 'The Underworld Grill and Bar' to 'The End.'

Lets take a look at some reviews and updates of The Underworld Bar and Grill/The End since Bar Rescue came and made all of the changes to the bar (all reviews are post Bar Rescue makeover):


 Positive Reviews:
  • The Pizza is always great but what's even better is the Awesome Staff.
  • This place is always a great time! Try the pbj and bacon sliders
  • Cool zombie themed bar and the pizza is AWESOME!!

Negative Reviews:
  • Not a fan.......Tacky decor, rude barstaff, and WAY over priced drinks...I only went to this bar to support my friend who used to host karaoke there.  Now that he doesn't host, I don't have to torture myself anymore.
*Reviews from Yelp and Foursquare


Other News and Stories:
  • There was a story about a 'restaurant inside a restaurant' on Eater back in April that talked about Wicked Pizza operating inside Underworld independently.  We will have to see if that remains after Bar Rescue or if there are changes made.
  • The Underworld Bar and Grill/The End keeps an up to date Facebook page and has Karaoke on Sunday & Thursday as well as other themed nights.  They also stated that the bar's name is "still legally underworld but we are getting it changed to The End"
  • Underworld/The End is having a viewing of the Walking Dead premiere and the viewing of their episode of Bar Rescue tonight (link).
  • Here is a long blog post with a review and a lot of pictures of the food and the bar at The Underworld/The End.  The reviewer went to the bar twice and gives glowing reviews such as: "This bar & grill is well managed and everything is done the old school high quality way." and " The service is polite and friendly.  The food and drinks are reasonably priced.  The interesting zombie theme signature cocktail creations are a real bargain, when compare to prices of signature cocktails around town."
  • The Underworld website is down, but this may be due to the upcoming name change.


Conclusion:

It sounds like the reviews for The Underworld/The End are mostly positive for both the food and the service, besides the guy who is probably just upset his friend isn't hosting karaoke anymore.  It also sounds like the bar owners are going with what was recommended by Bar Rescue and they have been putting in the effort to turn the place around.

UPDATE 2/2016 - The End has closed - More information on the bar closing.
