    Grilled boneless bangus
    Marivic C.

    Food is always spot on! I always order the same dish because i love it! I like how they deep fry the Milk fish and have that crispy crust! yummmmm I tend to come here for brunch after church but this time It was a craving that got me! Service - Always a hit for me! Ambiance - This time NO DJ was playing.. But usually they do have a DJ playing some cool jams on Sunday's

    Had breakfast here for the first time on my last Vegas trip. The restaurant is owned by comedian Jo Koy's sister. It's a blend of southern comfort and Filipino food. The interior is clean and spacious. The staff from hostess to waitstaff were very friendly and welcoming. I just went with a basic breakfast sandwich. It was nothing special, but good. Everyone else in my group seemed to enjoy their meals as well. The menu has quite the variety, so you should have no problem finding something you like.

    Breakfast was excellent as usual. First time having the Shrimp and Bacon Grits and it's delicious. Good amount of shrimp and it is so tasty sautéed with the bacon. It is served with two eggs over the grits. Service was quick and employees are all friends. Nice cozy feel with lots of natural light. One of our regular breakfast spots.

    Fried Salmon & scrambled eggs
    Rodney N.

    Had the fried salmon (yes, Lord I said FRIED) & it was wonderful. Crunchy corn meal exterior that tastes like salmon on the inside. If they had baked Mac N Cheese they'd have to Kobe this place to West Tennessee. We can just before 3pm & there was only one employee but she did a good job. Way too early for a DJ so at some point my wife & I will have to come here at a later hour. Also had the Peach Cobbler, sans ice cream, it had canned peaches but was suitably sweet. The background music was perfect if you graduated high school in 1985. 4-stars

    I've been hearing a lot of chatter about Mountain West Eatery, so I decided to give them a try by bringing a group of folks from church for our outting. Making a reservation online was super easy and efficient, which I appreciated! When I arrived, the exterior looks like this would be some chain restaurant, with a larger than life staff & facility. But once I entered and got familiar with the restaurant, it's very much more like a small family owned restaurant. The type where the owners & family members are working both in the kitchen and the front of house. There was a live DJ on my visit, that had nice tunes the whole time I was there. He even lowered the music when my group and I prayed over the food, which I thought was an extra special cool touch! Thanks for that mister DJ! Apparently they have karaoke nights too. There were three staff working the front of house. A lady that was at the register most of the time, who seems the most knowledgeable and had amazing hospitality! - a young gentleman that was tall, pair pulled back. He was very hospitable and helpful. I think he was one of the main servers. - and an even younger guy, likely a busser or back waiter. He was not friendly at all! He was actually quite rude and aggressive. (Maybe he was having a bad day) Although we had a large group, they were pretty efficient and effective at getting our orders and helping us through the process. Unfortunately, since it's a large group, our food came out at very different times. There was probably a 10 min gap between the first dish that came out to the last dish that came out. Which, towards the end, left half our table done eating while the other half was still going. The restaurant serves a very wide range of food: Breakfast, BBQ, American, Filipino We pretty much tried all genres in our group, and we had mixed reviews, but most of it was positive! I think some of the reviews on the breakfast items were average. But the Filipino food was amazing! Especially mine. I had the Sinigang and it was delicious!! I noticed a few other people around the restaurant ordering it too. I see why! Lots of flavor. Restrooms needed some attention and sprucing up. Overall, great place to try. These smaller family owned places have some of the best food, so I recommend giving them a try.

    Chicken Adobo
    Glenn A.

    If you are familiar with the comedian Jo Koy, this restaurant is owned by his sister. We stopped in for breakfast before our drive back to LA and I was impressed on how spacious the layout is, complete with a dedicated bar and a stage for live entertainment. Although Mountain West Eatery serves a unique mix of Southern comfort food and Filipino food, I went with the Tapsilog. It didnt disappoint! The beef tapa was very tender and it had somewhat of a nice sweetness to it. I also sampled the pork belly, which was equally delicious. Service was great. Our food arrived just minutes after we ordered.

    Made it to Mountain West Eatery, Gemma's restaurant--Jo Koy's sister--located in the southwest of Vegas. I knew going in that they serve a mix of Southern comfort food and Filipino dishes. Went with a friend for lunch fully planning to order Filipino food, but I just wasn't in the mood anymore. I ended up getting the Southern catfish sandwich, while my friend ordered the fish and grits. For me, the food was a bit mediocre, but the service was excellent. The space is roomy with a relaxed atmosphere, and there's a lot to choose from on the menu. I'd give it another chance and try something different next time.

    Lechon kare-kare  Chicken skin appetizer
    Jowanna M.

    I'd been wanting to try this place. Sadly, I was disappointed. They appeared to be under staffed, as there were only 2 servers, and one of them, Lyndon, was VERY rude. He was very social with the table to my left, like he knew them. The table to my right stayed dirty for far too long. My husband told him the men's room needed paper towels which caused Lyndon to start cursing under his breath. Rather than introduce himself or provide ANY niceties, he walked up to our table and said, "What do you want"? I actually pulled the other server to ask what the guy's problem was. The chicken skin appetizer was overly salty. The pork kare-kare was overly dry and hard. The veggies were not seasoned AT ALL. Returning is not in the cards for us.

    Mountain West is a blend of both Filipino and Southern Soul Food. The menu features all the Filipino classics - silog of all kinds, kare kare (a stew made with beef and peanut butter), and caldereta. Then they have Southern flavors like shrimp and bacon grits. A DJ played Christmas songs from a small platform. One standout feature was the service. When we went there was a busy Sunday brunch in attendance. Maryann was the sole person working the tables and the register. Now and then the owner would come out to help, but Maryann commanded that room like a Pro. No complaints and no fuss from customers. Bottom line - they serve great food and have excellent service. I highly recommend!

    Ribs and Catfish
    Lyn K.

    Came here on a weekday at about 4pm, so definitely past lunch and before any dinner crowds - it was only us and one other dining group there. Server was very friendly and kind and helped make some recommendations for food. I'm Filipino and was craving some homestyle cooking, so I got the adobo. My daughter got the spamsilog, and my husband got catfish, ribs, collard greens, and Mac and cheese. The adobo was ok, it seemed like it had been simmering all day by how salty and emulsified the oils were with the sauce. The serving was interesting, it was a bowl of adobo and then a super small cup with the rice... maybe it's just my family and I but I'm used to rice being on a bigger plate so that I can add sauce and chicken to it, not the other way around, so here I had to add the rice to the adobo sauce, and it just felt imbalanced. The chicken itself was tender. No complaints from the Spam plate: spam was fried well, scrambled eggs cooked thoroughly, and the garlic rice was delicious. My husband said his catfish was good, but suspected it was frozen. The ribs were tough, and the sauce was ok. Overall an ok meal, not terrific, but nothing super stand out. I would definitely come back to try the other Filipino food offerings.

    1/2 bangus-silog and a side of pancakes
    Roxanne E.

    Came here with my family on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. We were seated right away. There was also a DJ playing some great hits. We ordered 1/2 bangus-silog with garlic rice and upgraded the toast to a pancake. We also ordered the Lechon. The 1/2 bangus-silog was delicious! The fish was nice and crispy on the outside and the meat on the inside was cooked perfectly. The vinegar sauce that it came with enhanced the dish. The garlic rice was also garlicky. The pancakes were buttery. I did wish it was fluffy. The Lechon was also nice and crispy! There was a good amount of meat and less fat on these which I liked. The veggies were fresh! We wished out waitress came around to check on us. We needed to flag her down to get some water and napkins. Another thing was they didn't have a safe high chair for our daughter. The strap did not buckle. She said that they only had 1 high chair. That is definitely a safety hazard. Overall, we enjoyed the food and music.

    Mountain Burger & Basement Fries (bottom bun was burnt)
    Tracie E.

    Stopped in this place as a recommendation from someone while I was in town for the weekend. It was a Friday afternoon and only one other party was in the restaurant at the time. After ordering our food, it took about an hour to come out, which would have been overlooked if our food came out piping hot, which wasn't the case for any of the four dishes. Pros: fresh cut fries, large menu to try Filipino cuisine, happy hour is 3p-close. Cons: possibly low staff, food takes a while, waiter told us their Mac&Cheese is "hit or miss" and they make it to order.. cabbage was cold and flavorless, catfish was hard. Would not recommend, but hoping this was just an off day for the restaurant.

    09/28/2025 - Shrimp and Grits $17.99
    Teri C.

    Mountain West Eatery is a restaurant that offers your typical American fare like weekend brunch, as well as Filipino favorites and Southern fare. We stopped by on a Sunday afternoon and the restaurant was relatively busy. There were a few empty tables that had yet to be cleaned, but we noticed a few groups that still had not ordered yet. There was one couple before me and then my party. I took a seat and waited as a few staff members walked by and didn't say anything. I was wondering if I was going to get any acknowledgment, when someone finally said they are going to clean a table for us. We looked over the extensive menu and was ready to order and just waited. We did notice that a large group got their order in right before us, so we were anticipating a bit of a wait. The Husband's Country Fried Steak $16.99 arrived first, 15 minutes after we put our order in. He did ask for over easy eggs, but he got sunny side up ones. He also asked for extra crispy hash browns and didn't get that either. He couldn't be bothered letting them know as it would only delay his order. He did want condiments like ketchup and hot sauce, and we had to flag someone down to get those things. Next to arrive was mine - Shrimp and Bacon Grits $17.99. It was good, but the grits were not hot enough as you can tell the cheese did not melt. I would guess they plated the grits first and it sat while my eggs and shrimp were being cooked. Once that was plated on top of the grits, the cheese was added. The cheese melted nicely on my eggs, but not on the grits part. Next was the Little Gal's Kids Hawaiian Grilled Cheese $9.99. It looked like an amateur grilled cheese sandwich. There was nothing special about it. She ate it because she was starving. Last to arrive was the Little Guy's 1/2 Bangus Silog $16.99. This arrived about 15 minutes after the Husband received his order, which meant he was pretty much done by the time my son got his food. A staff member did come by after I got my order to say the other orders were coming shortly, but it still took a little while. We expected the wait because of the larger party before us, but didn't expect the food to be brought out with such a huge gap. If this was the case where we waited for everyone to get their food before we all ate, there would have been a bunch of cold dishes sitting around. I noticed this was also the case with other tables too. Service was okay. There were about three servers handling takeout orders, delivering food and taking table orders and one busboy. Sometimes there was no one on the floor though, so you definitely wondered where everyone went. I went to use the restroom and expected that the bill would be paid while I was gone. But when I returned, the Husband said he was still waiting for someone to come by. Would we go back? Probably not. The food was only okay, the service was only okay, and the pace wasn't what we are used to.

I especially loved the salmon, which was cooked beautifully, and the brown rice was surprisingly so flavorful. Paired with the avocado, it made for such a satisfying combination. My toddler's favorite was the fettuccine alfredo--she couldn't get enough of it! One of the highlights of our visit was meeting the chef-owner. He was incredibly kind, and you can truly tell how much care and love he puts into his food. That passion comes through in every dish, making the whole experience feel thoughtful and genuine.
