Reviews for Gangsters Dueling Piano Bar in Newport, KY
We had reserved a table for 8, which is the number of people a table seats. When we arrived, there were people at all the... tables, so they had to move people to another table, which made us look like the bad guys. That happened to some other peoplewho came after us as well, shuffling had to be done in order to seat everyone. You would think the reservation person would markthe tables as they were reserved, but obviously that didn't happen. The skit was very short, which took place during the saladand bread course. During dinner they passed out cards to a select few to be suspects in the skit. After dinner the playersinterviewed the suspects and we had to draw a conclusion with the facts presented. During dessert they deliberated on whocorrectly found the murderer. All that was fine, except the whole thing did not have much substance. The set (one piece offabric over a pole) keep falling down and a table and chairs were it. The whole thing seemed simple and second rate. The savinggrace was the food, it was very good and you could go back for seconds. Did I mention that there was a bar out front, and whenthey started playing during the interview process, it was super difficult to hear the clues, even with the doors closed. Overall, it was a hot mess! Will not be going back anytime soon, or ever. Read more
I wanted to like this place. Service was slow for a Saturday. All the wait staff were in garb, but the piano players were not.... Hey it was alright for what it was. Read more
Filet Mignon, Heineken's and great service! Could not have been a better Valentine/Birthday night. We have been eating and... dancing at Gangster's for over 5 years. Never disappointed. Read more
Lots of fun. The talent is great, but one of the piano players was just a little too casually dressed. It was like he's used... to playing piano from his couch. The bartenders were not great. We had dinner before the show and the food was ok. Prettysure it was something leftover from a wedding reception. It's a weird vibe where I wonder if the people working there are alljust friends and family with no real expectations of exceptional service. Nice entertainment and seems to be the place to gofor bachelorette parties. Go, you'll have fun. Read more
Entertaining. Total time about two hours, which we were entertained. Newport, Kentucky was the gambling star until Vegas... started decades later. Read more
This was a fun place for a light dinner and music. The piano players were great and the service was top notch. The host was... dressed in a suit and looked the part and very handsome. Seeing him at the door was a great start to the evening. The tator totappetizer was great along with the burger. I will definately go back when I'm in the area again. Read more
Such an upbeat atmosphere!! The servers and bartenders are super nice and go out of their way to make your visit a good one.... Sometimes it's extremely busy and the employees run around and take care of everyone. Not a typical night out at a bar, thisplace takes it to a whole new level!! Never a dull moment :) Read more
