    We decided to check out this BBQ restaurant after seeing the high ratings across multiple review…read moreplatforms, so I'll admit our expectations were pretty high. It's located off the Strip in a somewhat hidden, out-of-the-way plaza, which gives it more of a local, low-key feel. One thing I noticed right away was that the menu posted in the lobby didn't have prices, but the menu behind the register did. They have a huge selection of food, so there are plenty of options to choose from. We ordered the burnt ends, brisket, mac and cheese, chicken sliders, meatloaf, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and cornbread. The brisket was unfortunately overcooked, although the burnt ends were good. The meatloaf was okay but definitely not the best I've had. The mac and cheese was good, and the mashed potatoes were actually really good. The chicken sliders were just okay, and the cornbread didn't really stand out. Overall, I was a little disappointed because the reviews had me expecting something exceptional. Everything was decent, but honestly, the meal was pretty mediocre for me. Nothing was terrible, but nothing really blew me away either. I'd still give it four stars because there were several good items, the menu has a lot of variety, and our overall experience was fine. However, based on the ratings, I definitely expected more.

    We had reservations for Sunday at 6. We arrived at 5:30 and was seated right away. It was not…read morecrowded at all. Our waitress was super friendly and upbeat but she immediately let us know that there was only one order of fried chicken left if we wanted to order it. We were not ordering fried chicken so it wasn't an issue but I thought it was odd that this is an item they would run out of on a Sunday. I ordered the chicken fried steak which came with mashed potatoes and greens. My husband ordered the catfish dinner which came with hush puppies, grits and greens. The food arrived pretty quick and was hot. My chicken fried steak was just ok. The mashed potatoes were good and the greens were the worst I've had. It was like a pound of sugar in them. Caught me off guard. It was so sweet that it was inedible. My husband's fried catfish was prepared perfectly! (We asked for it to be fried hard) It was hot, fresh and well seasoned! The hush puppies were a bit dry and taste like they roll it in the same fish fry as the catfish as it had a slight fishy taste but the grits were amazing! It had a white gravy/sauce on top of it and it was just soo good! I had wished I ordered his plate even tho we swapped a few forkfuls. One thing I noticed was the menu had changed. Based on other yelp posts, there were items that I had in mind I wanted to try when I got there like the egg rolls. The menu is vastly downsized from when they first opened which was a bummer. Usually when a restaurant downsizes their menu by that much, it's usually a sign it won't be open much longer. So go while you can if it's a place you've been wanting to try. We paid almost $80 for 2 dinners (not including tip). We did not get drinks since we had been drinking earlier. The price wasn't too bad for a sit down restaurant inside a Vegas casino.

Moomoo and Krystal provided outstanding service and made the experience even better. Every single side we tried was flavorful and delicious, and the fried chicken was really good too! Great food, great service, and no long wait. Definitely worth checking out!

    The only issue I had is the chairs and tiny seating area…read more Everything else was delicious and beautifully served. Al a carte entree options are available so we got the liver and onions. This tasted just like my Cousin Idas recipe and the reason why I like liver and onions to this day. You even get Three choices of gravy Y'all...beef, chicken, or turkey Great staff and ultra receptive to needs...damn near psychic. It was too hot and I'm too old to get any of the drinks but they looked good and the water and lemon were great. Alcohol needs to be consumed on the low/DL so it's kinda bring ya know but take ya cup to the car for the cut. I will definitely be taking Moms here very soon. Cabbage was Bomb! BEP were too salty (we couldn't eat them) and the Mac n cheese was dry but seasoned well. Need tips: Get the turkey wangs, oxtails, liver n onions, yams, dressing with gravy, cornbread, cabbage, potato salad, chicken n waffles
