Gigantic country-western night club, with a capacity of over 3,000 people. Unfortunately I went on a night where there were only 11 people, making the cavernous space seem completely dead. And I'm pretty sure most of those 11 people were employees. There's a huge elevated central dance floor with a square footage that rivals or exceeds most homes. To the east is the main bar, a rectangular bar in the middle of a lounge area with bar tables, couches, and lunge chairs. East of that is the billiard area with numerous pool tables. Along the back wall are dart boards and the claw machines that for some reason are so beloved in Eastern Jackson County bars. There's an additional bar along the back wall. Finally, at the west end, is a restaurant area open only on certain nights of the week. This is one of only two 3am bars in Eastern Jackson County. The other is half a mile south of here. I've often wondered why Grain Valley is the only city in Jackson County outside of Kansas City that has issued any 3am licenses. $5 cover on weekends, no cover on weekdays. Drinks are surprisingly cheap. The restrooms were spotless, but since no one was there yet I wouldn't have expected anything else. I've heard stories about brawls here and I do know there was a stabbing in the parking lot a couple of years ago, but no one I know personally who has been here has witnessed that. Don't miss the turn into the parking lot! Otherwise you'll have to turn your car around on the dead-end street, and there have been instances of people attempting to do that plummeting over the steep embankment and onto I-70 below.

This place is good for country music and cigarette smoke if u like it, i don't. Not a fan of the diva bartenders or the rowdy crowd after midnight. Before that tho its slow paced and relaxed. Wanna listen to some good music or bust a move on the country dance floor this is the place for u.

If your down to line dance and a little bit of twerking also then this is the place to go. Very spacious dance floor and plenty of bars to accommodate all the ppl that were there on a weekend. Bouncers were very patient on all the drunks and I would return when back in the midwest.

You definitely do not go for the atmosphere but we had a great time. We went for the FREE line dancing lessons on saturday night at 7pm. We learned a few useful moves and then went on our way. Their mixed drinks are quite spendy, $7.50 for a vodka/red bull. Since I'm not a beer drinker we opted for the pitcher of vodka/red bull to the tune of $30 plus bucks. The building is a warehouse, they smoke inside and there are no fans so plan on being saturated at the end of the evening. We did have some late night entertainment of two chicks fighting as we were leaving, never a dull moment. You go for people watching, shaking your booty for hours and hours and well..that's about it.

I've heard a lot about this place but still didn't really know what to expect. I had some friends that were fighting in the fights, so got to experience this bar and all it's WOWness. We had VIP seats, so we got to see a little bit of everything being right in the middle. One of the bouncers had a severe little man complex (got in the middle of anything and everything and created problems when there wasn't one). As Tabitha M. said, easy and sleazy pretty much hits it right on the head. I was amazed at how one of the ring-girls acted, thinking she missed her calling as a different kind of dancer. Some of the fights were good, some were brutal, and some were nonexistent. All in all, I'm glad I went to see my friends, but without a reason like that, I doubt I'd ever find the need to go back.

Save the time and head over to BadLands. After the remodel it blows this place out of the water.

If easy and sleazy are the top two attributes on your list of what you look for in another, you'll be sure to find your soulmate somewhere in Whiskey Tango. After my boyfriend's work buddy gave us free tickets to go see a MMA fight there this weekend, we braved the drive and the people to go see a good fight. And the fights were about the only good thing that night, especially the bar fight that happened right in front of us, and some creeper got his face bloodied. The fight announcer was very proud that apparently the Whiskey Tango staff has been voted the best bar staff for 5 years now. I'm not sure where those statistics are from, but I guess if top heavy tan skeletons seal the deal for good-staffing, I could see how they won. personally, the only thing I was really impressed with was the size of the venue. It's out in the middle of no where, right of the highway, in a HUGE warehouse. I can't vouch for the bathroom because I was too scared to take that risk.

Great music and dancing, great atmosphere, and great group of regulars. BEWARE of the bartender running the bottomless beer stand. She requests that you add a 50% tip when you pay for your wristband. It's a great deal for the endless beer, but you should pay with cash and tip accordingly as the night goes on. I was very disappointed in the way that she treated customers, and her offensive demeanor was not deserving of the requested 50% tip. Tips should be earned, not requested in an excessive amount. This is a place that I really look forward to dancing at, and she has really tarnished the experience for me. Other than that, the staff is great, even the doormen and security officers were friendly and professional.
