    We so wanted to love this place. We were in the mood for barbecue and this place looked soo good…read more The cashier was super nice and made the suggestion of getting the 5 meats and 3 sides. We got double portion of brisket, cheddar links, spare ribs and beef rib. We got a double portion of Mac and cheese and green beans. We were surprise how long it took to get our food ( over 1/2 hour). The good- the brisket was super good. The cheddar was solid. the best part were the sides the Mac and cheese was good, but the green beans were the best part of the meal. The bad. The spare ribs were over cooked and super dry. The Beed rib was 2/3 fat and gristle. We showed one of the staff and he came back with another piece that was a little better... but said the fat to meat ration is Normal for beed ribs. The staff was super helpful and great... food was a little underwhelming

The pulled pork was delicious, brisket juicy, the rib perfectly cooked, hot link was my son's favorite, my kid also had Mac wrap with brisket. Staff were great and friendly.

    I almost skipped this place because of a few questionable reviews about the chicken, but I'm really…read moreglad I went. I thought it was pretty much perfect. I honestly can't imagine someone craving fried chicken not enjoying this place. The 1/4 white chicken was huge and perfectly cooked, and I also loved the potato salad. The staff was super friendly, too. Overall, I loved it here.

    I'm from the South, so I know what this should be--and this wasn't it. The cashier had attitude…read morefrom the jump, clearly bothered that I asked about spice levels and didn't tip on a to-go fast food order. ( this new tipping in fast food is ridiculous) Eye roll included. Not a great start. Yes, the chicken came out hot that's the one thing it got right. But the breading is nowhere close to real Southern fried chicken. It's heavy, OVERLY greasy, and misses the mark completely. The ranch tasted bottled, the sweet tea wasn't fresh (straight dispenser vibes), and the peach cobbler had zero flavor only saved by the vanilla ice cream. It smells amazing walking up, but don't fall for it. $31 for a greasy, underwhelming meal with attitude on the side? Hard pass. Wouldn't come back or recommend. * it just leaves me thinking, of all the amazing Mom and pop spots in the small southern towns that I call home. I know a handful of restaurants that could absolutely flourish if given the chance in a location such as the cosmopolitan.

    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.

Service was solid too, everybody attentive without doing too much. Drinks: I got the drink flight and I gotta keep it real... this was my only real complaint. Out of the four drinks, only ONE was good. I don't remember all the names, but the golden one with Jack Honey was cool. The other three? Easy passes. For $42, that ain't it. 3/10 Appetizers: Now let's talk food. The biscuits are CRAZY. Soft, buttery, fresh, and that pepper jam takes it to another level. They even put the jam in the hush puppies which is a power move. 10/10 The crab cakes were fire too. All flavor, real crab meat, no filler nonsense. Definitely something I'd order again. 9/10 Main Plate: I ordered the fried fish with Brussels sprouts and mac & cheese. The fish was top tier. Fried perfect, seasoned right, crispy but not greasy. 8/10 The Brussels were mixed with sweet potatoes, good balance, good flavor, just nothing that made me lose my mind. 7/10 The mac & cheese wasn't for me. Thick cheese sauce but no real flavor behind it. Just kinda there. 4/10 Overall: All in all, it was a good experience. Great service, good food, and a solid atmosphere. Even with a couple misses, I'd still come back and try more off the menu. Nellie's definitely worth checking out.

I didn't get any good pictures of the food. that's how I was to get into it but trust me when I tell you it's well worth it if you like a little bit of kick Cajun southern creole style stuff I had the shrimp and grits & Bananas, foster waffle Mom had the gumbo with the crabcake on the side. Sisster had the catfish and grits. Everyone cleaned their plates.!

    Lola's A Louisiana Kitchen - Good Food, Just Watch the Add-Ons…read more We ordered the Roman trio and jambalaya, and overall the food was flavorful and enjoyable. The service was friendly, and the Louisiana-inspired decor is cute and adds to the charm of the place. One thing to be mindful of: when ordering, our waitress casually suggested or repeated add-ons in a way that could easily be mistaken as part of the original order. For example, we ordered the traditional jambalaya, which also has a "loaded" option for an extra $10. We clearly wanted the original, but she repeated it as "loaded." Thankfully, my husband caught it and corrected her before it went through. Later, we noticed another table was upcharged for potatoes without realizing they were an add-on. So just a heads-up--be very clear when ordering and double-check what's included versus extra to avoid surprises on the bill. Overall, the food and atmosphere are solid--just make sure to pay close attention when placing your order.
