This was a fun experience. The steak dinners we had were very good. The servers were very busy but we still felt like we had good service.

This was the worst dining experience ever when stopping for dinner on our way to Vegas. 1.) Our drink orders were wrong 2.) It took 20 minutes to place our order. 3.) The appetizer stuffed mushrooms were all heat no flavor 4.) 2 tables who sat after us got their orders ahead of ours. 5.) After 40 minutes of waiting, when our order arrived, it was Wrong Again. 6.) We left without eating our meals and still were charge $40 for bread, 2 coffees, 1 soda, 1 appetizer,, and a long Island iced tea. I am very thankful my friend, who's Birthday we were celebrating with our trip, hadn't taken her insulin when we ordered or we would have had a medical emergency on our hands with the wait for service. DO NOT RECOMMEND IF YOU WANT PROMPT SERVICE OR FLAVORFUL FOOD

Excellent food, excellent place! I took my family of four here after arriving in Ely late at night. Despite it being friday night, we only had to wait 15 minutes. The jail cell theme is really neat. Those complaining about authenticity have obviously failed to read the back of the menu. Our waitress was very friendly and checked on us often. I ordered the ribeye medium rare with the stuffed potato and house salad. My wife ordered the filet mignon, stuffed potato, and house salad. Her steak was the best ive tasted in a while! Both steaks were spot on and seasoned just right. The asparagus was nice and tender, but not overcooked. The stuffed potato wasnt too bad, but I'd probably order a baked potato next time. It didnt taste bad, it just wasnt what i was expecting. The beans were great as well, i love the bacon pieces and seasoning they use. The price is sort of high, but i expect that from a steakhouse. I definitely recommend this place!

I travel to Ely for work a few times a year. This is the first time I ate at the Cellblock. Had a great Ribeye! Cool place. Update: Sad to see they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays during the winter :(

Ordered two 16 oz prime ribs rare. Waitress said they have rare. Received bread nice salad other than blue cheese dressing watered down. Received our dinners nice presentation. Prime Rib overcooked looked very very dry almost looked liked the edges were freezer burned. Cut into the meat grainy and dry no rub or salty flavorful edge. Meat dry absolutely no taste the aju had absolutely no taste. Thought meat was over boiled pot roast. The asparagus tasted weird. Waitress came to check how our food was and told her this is the worst prime rib we ever had. One full plate was not even touched. Waitress left and didn’t come back. She finally came back when she thought we were done wanting to give us a box and check. I told her we would pay for one meal and not the other only because we ate the potato off one plate and couple bites off the meat. She said she couldn’t do that. Told her wanted to talk with manager, but said manager wouldn’t do that. Told her will dispute on credit card and post on Yelp. She took the one plate away then came back and said she will just bill for one meal. Our bill was $36.00 for a garbage meal. We paid $40.00 and left. Terrible Terrible meal and poor response from waitress. Can’t believe this Yelp rating of 4+

So I had rids. They were tasty and cooked perfect. My date had shrimp scampi however and it was almost flavorless. The staff was good but the bad shrimp kind of wrecked the night.

Terrible. 1min to be seated, 20 minutes until our drink orders were taken, and a half hour later we had to flag down another staff member to get the drinks. Canned asparagus as a garnish on a Denny's grade steak. To top it off the server ran the card for $68 on our $53 bill.
