When Shango Las Vegas was a medical marijuana only dispensary, they were great, across the board--quality, staff, and most importantly, for me, price! Now that recreational marijuana has arrived in Nevada, the greed that we all knew was coming has set in after only two days of recreational marijuana in Nevada. For example, did ANY of the dispensaries have a 4th of July sale? None that I'm aware of. I guess since business has increased, at least quadrupled in customers according to local reports, there seems to be no need to have specials to draw people in. Also, a trip to #Shango yesterday revealed that they have immediately increased their E-Z Ounces to $189 per ounce, up from $150. Then today I checked Shango's website again, and the prices of their E-Z Ounces are showing up as much as $239 each. Still cheaper than most dispensaries in town, but a $50 increase a day after a $39 increase? PLEASE! It's nothing but pure greed on Shango's part. I also noticed that the density of their buds has decreased substantially--supposedly so it won't last as long and you'll have to replenish sooner? When it was only a medical marijuana establishment, quality was higher at Shango and prices were good. That's all changed over a period of days, now four days. Shango, as well as the other dispensaries, should be ashamed of themselves for their flagrant greed. I was a regular customer at Shango. Now that will no longer be the case. I may still shop there, but I'll shop around first before returning to Shango!

Worst dispensary I have ever encountered. First off they lied to me on the phone about pricing and strains. Then I unwrap the SHATTER and it is all melted. It's called Chong's choice and I am sure that if he knew the product was not right, he would be appalled by it. With all my heart, please don't waste your time or money at this facility. I have never been to a dispensary THIS bad. And I have been to a lot of them from Cali, AZ, Colorado. This place is awful. I have never done a review for a dispensary, but I wanted to make sure the people that need this for medicine would want t keep away.

Seeds seeds and more seeds. Every 8th I have seen grown by Shango was full of seeds. Called them to let them know and they didn't really care. Offered me discount if I bought directly from them which was less than a first time visitor would get. If they priced their 8th's at $5 I would still consider it overpriced.

Expensive! Expensive! 0.5 gram pre-rolls sell for 10$ pre-tax !! Only 2 or 3 strains that cost 47$ an eight and you will not be satisfied. Dispensary doesnt mean quality here.

Came by the other day and it was great! Glad there's a dispensary on the east side of Vegas.
They should upload their menu! Would like to know pricing before coming in next time.

Nobody likes a used car salesman. This kid that helped me was not suited for the job. He was looking all over the place while I was asking questions. He showed a total lack of interest and acted like everything he did was a favor to me. He wouldn’t listen to me and pushed his own agenda. I was with him a total of maybe 2 minutes so it’s not like I was monopolizing his time.
VERY EXPENSIVE compared to other dispensaries with same flower. I don’t mind paying a bit more for great service but I walked out of there pissed at how I was treated vowing never to come back. But now that I have calmed down, I will try it once more because they have a strain I like there. If the same kid waits on me this time, I will ask for someone else.

The taste and smell of the Slymer makes it a must pick up - uplifting. Jen my dispensary agent was fantastic!

This location is awesome!! All in one center which means they do everything from planting the seed all the way up to selling their own product.
The people are very knowledgeable and I have to give a shout out to my boy Al for always setting me straight every time I come in.
Lots of options and very good price points!
I recommend anyone to come check it out

I have been smoking longer than many of you have been BREATHING! I started in the early 1990's with moldy, moist, Mexican brick weed full of stems and seeds, and I was grateful to have it!
Since I got my NV Medical card in 2014, I have been through six or seven unlicensed, delivery-only dispensaries, and two retail "official/legal" dispensaries. If NevadaPURE maintains their current level, they will be the only dispensary I'll ever have to use again.
They are awesome! I went in to the retail location on Boulder Highway. The atmosphere is reassuring, and the employees are very friendly and knowledgeable. They processed my paperwork and got me in quickly.
The buds are GREAT! Kooks is almost 30% THC, for $55 an eighth (1st time patients get one 1/2 price eighth!) Since they are so close to the house and so high quality, I will be declaring for NevadaPure, if forced.
5 stars all around. I will definitely visit again (so much faster than delivery) and definitely recommend to everyone needing a dispensary.

I've been coming to this location since it was NevadaPure and have noticed a dramatic difference in quality in the meds they provide. They have so many different cannabis strains for different ailments that I always find something that helps me with my pain. The budtenders are very knowledgeable and friendly, especially Tony and Donovan, those guys are always a great help. This is a must stop location for locals and tourists alike.

Not a bad shop, big and had some selection. Quality from my first visit was fair for the new NV industry. Second visit refused to serve me as a returning patient despite state issued AZ card with hologram and matching U.S. passport. Hope you guys figure out what you need to serve out of state patents. The request for a "state I'd card" for patients who don't drive due to condition is ridiculous. Hope you guys get it figured out.

This place is HUGE when I tell you riding down boulder you can't miss this place! I already knew what I wanted before I got there so I didn't need a introduction or nothing. It was very professional and they have security for the weirdos and robbers so don't even think about it losers! My budtender was Justin he was very helpful and down to earth. He said he was going to check my music out on youtube as well that was dope. Anyway I picked up a beautiful eighth of Superman OG which was wonderful I must say!! Everything was real quick and smooth and I was out the door. Prob won't go to this location all the time because I live in Southeast Vegas and because it's on a hot ass street with a lot of police (Boulder Highway) but will drop in if I'm ever on that side overall great experience! Staff was very friendly and helpful as well and the flowers are 100% FIRE!!!!

This is the worst dispensary I have ever been to. The vibe is EXTREMELY uncomfortable. They don’t let patients use their phones either.
Budtenders aren’t knowledgeable & you can’t use Leafly to see what you’re getting. Seriously, they don’t even display the terpene content. For those of you who care about building a good cannabis community in Nevada, please DO NOT support this location.

Shango has great deals on pre rolls. However I won't be going back in there again after today. The customer service is lacking. The first time I had an issue was the horrible lack of customer service . I walked in and had to wait 10 minutes and there was no one but me the sales people and 1 security guard. When I walked in there were 2 sales people and when I didn't get any help immediately I turned around to see NO sales people. When someone finally showed up it was because someone was getting medical marijuana. Keep in mind I had been coming in there from day one when they opened so about 4 or 5 months. but having been there before I had the issue that day I figured okay, I will let it go. Bad customer service happens even in the most A1 of businesses.. So fast forward to today, mind you this is 4-5 months after the last incident in addition I go in there 2- 3 times a week at times and I may miss a week but I'm a pretty frequent customer, usually hit it up after work and sometimes before. I usually buy pre-rolls but I have bought edibles and flower. But today I walked in with my purse like always and the security guard decided he wanted to check my purse. Nope. I have walked in with my big work bag and they've asked to check it, no problem even left my bag sitting on the seat next to the security guard, that's fine. But when I'm asked to check my purse that I've walked back there with multiple times, too many to count and when I say no I'm told I can't even wait in the building. I'm done. Shango will not get anymore of my business. They are literally 5 minutes away from me , 15 if I wanna take a walk. But now I have no problem driving 15-20 minutes to the next dispensary. It doesn't matter what's being sold if you have crappy customer service especially when there's other places to go.

Great service and better products than the other "storefronts" I've been to, maybe once things settle down the other shops will catch up, the service was fantastic, my budtender knew exactly what I was looking for after a very short conversation. Didn't get his name, but shorter bald gentleman knew his stuff. I am impressed with the quality of the product and the prices are very reasonable. I recommend this shop over any of the other 9 I have visited. In and out with no lines, plenty of product.
