Waterfront Taphouse scores below the majority of comparable restaurants in Clark County, outperforming only 22 percent of similar facilities. The facility has shown a troubling pattern of cold storage failures and food handling lapses across multiple inspections since December 2023, with improper cold holding appearing in four of six inspections. After passing a followup inspection in September 2025, the facility experienced a significant deterioration in February 2026, when inspectors found multiple high-risk violations including inadequate hand washing and improper cooling procedures, triggering another mandatory return visit that was resolved by February 18, 2026. The record suggests an inconsistent commitment to food safety fundamentals rather than a facility moving in a clear direction.
