    This gem called Captain Sam's Fish and Chicken was actually found by my fiancé on TikTok, and we had to try it for dinner tonight. It's tucked away off South Rainbow and Charleston, near the CSN West Charleston campus -- and let me tell you, this spot is nothing to play with! They serve up ready-to-order chicken and fish are both cost-friendly and absolutely packed with flavor. And do I need to mention... they've got the mild sauce and will ask if you want your chicken fried hard with lemon pepper seasoning? Yep -- this spot is legit and stays true to the Chicago name. The vibes are there. The food is there. The service is definitely there. The quality is there. The portions are generous for the price, and everything about this spot makes it worth the visit. My fiancé and I will definitely be coming back soon.

    I would say a solid, four out of five there's a shrimp and fish was nicely fried. This is a dish that you would need to warm up in the microwave at home. But it does transport well. The service was good. The the restaurant is in a gas station. It's a very corner store good foods small shop type of vibe.

    I have NEVER been to this place in all the 15yrs of living in Las Vegas, NV. However, I live in Summerlin and from time to time. I drive past this place. I do like eating healthy. Yet, today was my cheat meal day. There are no thrills when it comes to the ambience. It's a liquor store. You will definitely find all that you need from cheap to affordable liquor prices. Mexican candy, food and even slot machines. The customer service was cool. The workers are young. Yet, they are hard working. From the cashier to everyone cooking the food. Affordability: Pricing will NOT hurt your pockets at all. This food is NOT over priced. Good food on a budget!!! Cleanliness: Now, they can do better. Yet, they did change out their gloves repeatedly. Wipe things done etc. Just there is just so much stuff and such little space to work with. They do need to change out their cleaning towels more often though. Now the FOOD. The BEST seasoning, the BEST fried chicken wings, the BEST fried catfish, BOMB fries. The seasoning that was recommended by a customer to me. BTW-the customers were even friendly. The seasoning is this lemon pepper. It has to be crack LOL. Cause it had me ready to drive right back up there and order another plate of food. The order I had was enough for me to share with my adult daughter. We were so satisfied and sad all at the same time. Our food was gone LOL. Now we are just left with memories. Their hot sauce tastes like a mixture of : Louisiana Hot Sauce and Cholula. Full of flavor and the right amount of heat. Look you MUST go here. No matter what side of town you are on, if you're visiting Las Vegas, a cheat meal or a new dinner idea. Stop in, make some new friends and allow your tastebuds to be happy. There is NO place in the Las Vegas Vally who can do it better. I mean that :) I highly recommend. Thank you for the amazing food!

    After coming across this place several months ago online decided to give it a try tonite. It's located on W. Charleston and Rainbow inside of a convenience store. Saturday night around 7:30pm, it was pretty busy. Took about 20 min or so for my order to be ready. It was clean inside and staff were friendly. I ordered the 2 piece catfish with fries, bread and cole slaw. Not a fan of the fries with the lemon pepper seasoning. The fish was okay, not the best I have had. I didn't try the cole slaw. Will I try this place again, no, the food was just not to my personal liking. Not to say others wont enjoy it. Give it a try for yourself.

    Food was great, the portions are huge! Fresh and made to order The service was fantastic, quick and easy, folks were friendly It's a spot inside a liquor store so you order to go so that's why I gave it a 4. No spot to eat at Bummer you can't eat there but the food was still good when we got home Will be back for the lunch specials

    I LOVE catfish, so I was REALLY looking forward to trying the food at this location. I Pre-ordered through Grub Hub at 2pm to have my Catfish Nugget Dinner delivered to me at 6pm. At 3:30pm I received a call stating: "your order is ready for pick-up." I informed the caller that I placed the order through GrubHub to be delivered between 6pm-6:15pm and that was the options the app gave me. The caller proceeded to ask me "Why did you order for a later delivery? And "My cook didn't know about the late delivery, so you have to come pick it up now." I repeated that I ordered it through GrubHub and the caller became angry and stated "Fine! I got you!" And hung up. My order was then delivered at 5:50pm. The order was cold and the packaging and food was soggy and wet from perspiration. I proceeded to heat the food. The photo that I took was what the food looked like AFTER I heated it in the oven. When I sat down to eat, I looked at the receipt and learned that this was the food that they had waiting since 2:02pm!!!!! I had to throw it all away out of fear that I would get sick. VERY disappointing and unacceptable! Don't offer delivery via GrubHub if you don't coordinate with them. I will never recommend this restaurant, nor will I be ordering again!! A call to the health department will follow.

    The food is solid upon the first visit and was wowed immediately. The second time I went, I was bummed out smh. What I've learned is to NOT order at night or anything beyond maybe 7. I specified for the fish to be cooked hard... I do think the below pic is cooked hard, let alone cooked at all smh. A bomb place to eat when it's the right time though

Try the Mexican corn appetizer with it's crumbly cotija cheese, chili, lime, and mayo on top of charred corn kernels. It's in 'esquites' form, which means it's not left on the cob like 'elote' is. Their specialty, nachos, are also well seasoned and the chips are freshly made on site. What drew me in to this restaurant was a past appearance on the Maury Povich Show, where I took a paternity test for someone who claimed she was my daughter. The end result? I was cleared, so Maury pointed at me while telling her that he's "Not yo' daddy." And so I visit Nacho Daddy on occasion, strictly for celebratory reasons. Birria nachos are excellent, made with a high quality shredded beef with pickled onion, cilantro, sour cream, cheese, and lime on top of a stack of chips. Having birria without consommé was new, but this one didn't really need it with all the flavors jumping out. Another recommendation is the cheeseburger nacho, an Americanized version with ground beef, bacon, cheddar, jack, queso, onions, tomato, and lettuce. The 'mini nachos' are perfectly sized for a light meal but if you're hungry, get the full size order which is huge and shareable. This location has been in business for 17 years now and there's plenty of seating in a nice, clean atmosphere.

Coleslaw is nice and refreshing. I thought I would want more pickled radish, but it was a good amount. I live a bit far from this place so I made sure to take a bite right when I got into my car lol. Once I actually got to eat it, it was like half an hour in, it def didn't taste as good as it was fresh, but can't help that. Just dig in asap! I just wish this was closer to me and in a better location. It's a small parking lot which luckily wasn't too packed (Sunday around 12:30p). The place is mainly for pick up although they have 1 or 2 tables inside. They share the space with other restaurants so essentially you enter this small room and wait for them to come out to deliver the food. I would say you should just wait in your car until you get a text that your food is done. (Also their phone number didn't work so... best to just wait!) There are people just sleeping or talking to themselves all along Main St, but none were in the parking lot. I personally wouldn't go by myself at night... so I hope they can get a shop in Chinatown or Cheongdam food hall one day crossing my fingers!!!!!

First, the Victory Nachos looked great but tasted mediocre. The nachos were stale and there was no crunch to it whatsoever. The toppings helped to save it from being a total disappointment and they really should automatically add another container of salsa and sour cream. Perhaps even add a container of avocado with another container of salsa as there definitely wasn't enough salsa. 2 stars The Boom Boom Shrimp was the greatest disappointment as it did not taste fresh. It tasted as if it was made earlier and sat on the side until someone ordered it and then they poured the sauce on top. We only ate 1/8 of this before it got tossed. 1 star The Victory Power Salad was the only winner here. The top half of the picture shows how it arrived and the bottom half shows how it looked after being attacked. The ingredients were misbalanced to me and it could have used more greens as it felt top heavy of "stuff". 4 stars Overall, 3 stars is being generous for the amount of food that we did not eat.

They were not busy as there was a table of three next to us and a couple on another table. First, the greeting from the host was so unenthusiastic when he finally looked up from whatever paperwork he was looking at. It was uncomfortable walking in as the lady working in the open kitchen just glared at us. Once seated our server was just as lacking in any excitement whatsoever and it just seemed like no one liked their job. We ordered the Steamed Ginger Chicken Dumplings, Tokyo Crepes, Popcorn Chicken Skins, Sizzling Noodles with Chicken and Thai Tea Crème Brulee. First, the steamed ginger chicken dumplings wrap was so rubbery and firm. This is not how the wrap of a "steamed" dumpling should be. The filling on the inside was also dry and I had to wonder how long ago this was steamed and left out? The only thing that helped with this dish was that there was a sauce over it and sadly there wasn't enough sauce to give this dish any moistness. The Popcorn Chicken Skin was not as light and crunchy as I thought it would be. Whatever coating was used before frying the chicken skin seemed a bit heavy. Wouldn't order this again. I did enjoy the Tokyo Crepes and found it flavorful and different. Not sure if the wrap around it was the fried tofu but it was airy, fluffy and light. This is a dish I would order again. The recommended Sizzling Noodles were also good with the noodles having enough of a chew and flavor. The Thai Tea Crème Brulee dessert was a winner. First, the server was a different person who seemed happy to be working there. He dropped the dessert off which looked great (see picture). The top had a nice crackle when broken and the flavor of the thai tea is very mild. Some people may not notice it and think it is too mild but we thought it was wonderfully done. Overall, the service is standard and not very friendly. Maybe everyone was having an off day? The food started off disappointing but was followed by some creative and flavorful dishes. I think it is worth visiting but it's not a place I automatically put down as a return visit.
