    In a warm Southern kitchen, Fried Chicken sat at the center--golden, comforting, and full of heart. Collard Greens simmered nearby, steady and soulful, while Fried Green Tomatoes and Fried Okra brought a cheerful crunch and playful energy to the table. Dirty Rice added depth with its rich, seasoned warmth, and Fried Pork Chops stood strong and generous, wrapped in comfort. At first, they were just dishes, each with their own flavor and story. But as they came together, something changed. Fried Chicken found balance in Collard Greens' quiet strength, while Fried Green Tomatoes and Fried Okra became joyful companions. Dirty Rice connected them all, and Fried Pork Chops grounded the table with steady warmth. Together, they realized they were better as one--each bringing just enough spice, soul, and comfort without overpowering the others. In that simple kitchen, they became more than a meal--they became a family, sharing love in every bite. Patience was rewarded from the long wait in the back of the eatery as the "Employees Only!" reads: Behind these doors is a bunch of noise but a lot of love coming out...

    Today we're experiencing Southern Style Eatery in Las Vegas. I'm from the south, and I've been on the hunt for some good fried chicken and okra. This is a family owned restaurant that takes a lot of pride in their food. Everything is made to order, and the wait is well worth it. Everything was amazing! We got a large portion of fried chicken enough for two people to split, fried okra, mac & cheese, beans, and rice, and cornbread all for under 30 bucks! Shout out to PJ for the perfect recommendations!

    I visited this restaurant for the first time today. The ambiance/energy of the restaurant has an old school Southern vibe. The Fish Po Boy I had was good but the Fried Green Tomatoes tasted hard and overcooked. This restaurant provided very poor service not to me exactly but I received my food before a few people who have been waiting longer than me. A couple of ladies who sat right next to me got up and walked to the back takeout area to complain and then I heard to employees in the kitchen yelling at each other which is very unprofessional. When people walk into the Dine In section of the restaurant, there isn't any employees to greet them and there's no sign stating Open Seating or Please Wait To Be Seated. I wouldn't recommend anyone to go to this restaurant. I hope these internal issues they have gets resolved.

    Fried Fish - comes with two sides (I added sweet potatoes as additional) that Mac and collards?!!!!

    Came for after service Sunday lunch and the food was AMAZING- seasoning on point, Mac n cheese was a hit, collards and yams! Ugh you gotta try it. There is a wait for the food about 30mins BUT it is worth it, the portion size is enough for two meals and it's HOT when it comes out which is highly appreciated. I knew my food was fresh when it came out which made the wait worth it. Cute little spot downtown. However parking is limited. The service isn't really service service it's like order and eat in type of service but as they grow and add full service (water, table check-ins and etc) it's gonna really take off (also it was extremely busy like every table filled busy). Definitely coming back again to try the oxtails and lemon peppah wings!

    My Opinion..My review..IJS....WoW!!!!! When I say it's my opinion, that's what I mean!! This was one of theee best soul food spots of the year.. The pork chop was just like my mom use to make. Seasoned to perfection, crispy and fresh!! I haven't had cool-aide since the 90's I thought I was back at home!! Greens good and seasoned, Mac & cheesy was amazing. A Las Vegas hidden gem. I will definitely be back and let my family & friends know to stop by when in Vegas..This is a sharing moment.. My review..My opinion..IJS

    This was our 2nd visit while in Vegas for my birthday weekend!! Our first visit was Easter weekend for our Anniversary and the food was amazing!! The service was great because we came right before closing. The food was fresh and delicious. The music was perfect, the right music at the right volume. The 2nd visit, we took family(mom, aunt and older cousin) and they LOVED IT! The food was amazing, fresh, hot out the pot and every dish was tasty! Hats off to the chef! I love the way the food is already in a to-go tray so no need to pack up the leftovers. The portions are the perfect size. The music was perfect for a Sunday meal. The owners are lovely people. If you are looking for good food then stop by and get you a plate of home cooked food. The booths are so comfy too!

    There is nothing like coming to a place and what's on the menu they don't have or it's served on another day but doesn't state on the menu. Coming from the Bay Area where when you go to an establishment what you order on the menu you get. So, without even tasting the food I won't be back. I really ordered things I actually didn't want but I thought it would be rude to walk out. Mind you it was only 5pm and they close at 9p. So I'm really disappointed. I want to patronize folks but whe your going to have a meal have what's on the menu. I can't see myself coming back when town. I ended up at Ella M's to get what i wanted. No more recommendations from TikTok @Fred H. Business Mgr. Its all good. but no where on the menu where it says your sides are only served on certain days nor some of your meats. Again, when having a business advertising items on a menu and you run out is not cool at Any establishment. Once I got back to the hotel i found the food I did get was very tasty. And as i mentioned i did not want to walk out it would have been rude. Best, a patron.

    The definition of delicious southern style food. Everything was flavored to perfection. The location and parking make the trip quick and easy. The interior decor is calm, cool and stylish. The waiters were super helpful and always stopped by to make sure everything was on point. 4-stars because ribs/BBQ is only weekends

    Soul food in the city! I had a long couple of weeks and was feeling a bit drained. After doing a run at the Costco Business center. I sat in the parking lot and thought I need some soul food. Checked out Google and found this gem. This is definitely good food. So here's the deal. Dont come in a hurry but do come hungry and patient. The wait is longer than id like but it is soo good. So its worth it to me and to all the others patiently waiting. The music is lively and the staff was friendly. I will be back. Tip come early the specials sell out quickly. I was able to get the oxtails, mac n cheese and dirty rice. All winners.

    Seasoned to perfection.

    Seasoned to perfection. Friendly customer service, make you feel like family. Reminisce that southern style cooking from grandma's house. Dine in and take out. 4th and Las Vegas Blvd. South.

    This southern delicacy is took away near the Strat on the strip. Everything is cooked to order so you will have to wait for your food but it will be guaranteed to come out hot and fresh. We ordered the fried chicken with rice and gravy, yams, greens and macaroni. Everything was well season hot and fulfilling. I can appreciate the portion sizes especially the large size of the wings. If you're looking for a home cooked meal with friendly service and an inviting atmosphere, this is your spot.

    I was in contact with the owner a week prior to my family visiting from various. I again spoke with PJ and was told someone contact me days prior to confirm however no one had. I again called to confirm my party of 20-22 people when I arrived in Vegas. The food was amazing !!! However I wish they had cornbread for us all as only maybe 4 people received it. They were also out of numerous dishes and also their listed kool aid. This was definitely unexpected as I spoke to them days before they confirm however things happen. The customer service was great as well as our waitress. I don't recall her name, but I do remember she was holding a pretty baby. All in all good spot to visitors to eat but I would call first especially with a party of a certain size.

    Now i hardly, if ever, give 5 stars. But man! The hype around this spot was real, and i see why!!!…read moreIf you are looking for good breakfast in Vegas, that's black owned, you have to hit this spot while you're out there. The service was impeccable!! We came around 1030am, and it wasn't busy, but it was full. We waited a couple mins for a table for 4, which maybe took 10 mins max. We were offered bottled water while we waited, (Vegas was 108 degrees). The waitresses were very sweet. Very knowledgeable as well. Their recommendations were on point cus the food was truly amazing! If you go, it's not called gritz cafe for no reason! Get the grits! I added crushed sausage and cheese to mine and man oh man!! That took it from a 10 to a 20! So good! I ordered the chicken and waffles and it came with a side of gritz. The chicken was perfectly fried. Crispy on the outside. Juicy and flavorful on the inside. Once the hot sauce was added it was even better! The waffle itself was also amazing. Now i love me a Waffle House and i swear by their waffles, but these got them beat by 100000! I ordered a plain waffle, my brother got the yams waffle. (Yams in the batter.) OMG!! That was beyond delicious! My sister got the peach cobbler waffle which might've slightly been a bit better than the sweet potato, and i got the regular waffle which was still a good 10/10! They serve it with hot syrup. (Careful cuz it comes in a metal container that's also hot). They melted butter into the waffle before it comes to your table. It was everything!! I definitely would've came back if i didn't have other reservations. The ambiance was super cute. They don't sell alcohol, so we ordered lemonades and sweet teas. They had a nice pandora playlist playing in the background and by the time we left, there was a line out the door. They close at 2pm so get there early if you can to beat the rush, but this is a highly recommended 10/10!! If and when i come back to Vegas I'm coming back. Maybe 2x lol. See pics below

It's a small café, but the wait goes by quickly because the atmosphere is welcoming and people are enjoying good conversation while they dine. This visit, I tried the sweet potato waffle with greens and catfish--delicious! My husband ordered the grits and pork chops, and they were absolutely banging. My sisters had the chicken wings with shrimp and grits, and they loved their meals too. The pecan waffle was an added bonus and definitely worth trying. This is a must-visit spot if you're looking for great food and friendly service!

The fact that they rep the Niners was also a nice bonus! We came in, grabbed a menu and sat. Kenny promptly came over and wanted to take our order. There's a lot of choices we needed a minute. We ended up doing the combo. I did the fried catfish, mac, and the BEP had good reviews so I did that. Woman did the grilled catfish, greens and yams. The menu said fried food takes 20+ minutes, when I asked Kenny he said it'd be 6-7. I'm assuming that estimate is for busier times. They had a steady stream while we were there around 1. I enjoy the places with history that have the pics on the wall w the Celebs that have come through. I didn't know them all but Kenny and his family are obviously well loved, and after tasting the food I get it! The fish was crispy and flavorful! The mac was cheesy and delicious, and the peas had a nice smooth flavor. I think my favourite part of all was that they have and give togo cups of Crystal! My favourite and all I can tolerate heat wise. The pancake cornbread was also a fun treat I enjoyed for dessert. Woman's food was good but I liked mine better. The fish was cooked w bell peppers, which I don't really eat anymore. It had onions too, reminded me of a fajita. I don't eat yams butt tried her greens, they were ok. She said that to her they tasted canned. Idk but they weren't my favourite. My plate ftw. I'd absolutely go back, I'm sure it's a vibe when there's a game on.

    Disappointing Experience as Returning Local Customers…read more We are Las Vegas locals and had visited Rollin Smoke Barbecue before. Our previous experiences were great, so when we were craving barbecue, we decided to return expecting another enjoyable meal. We ordered several combo meals to take home so we could try a variety of meats, sandwiches, and sides. One thing that caught us off guard was the $8 upcharge per sandwich to make it a combo ($16 total for the two sandwiches we ordered). We understand that upgrades cost extra, but those charges should be explained clearly when customers are ordering. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing. The portions seemed smaller than we remembered. The barbecue sauce was much sweeter than we expected and overpowered the flavor of the meat instead of complementing it. Some of the meats and sandwiches were also bland, lacking the rich, smoky barbecue flavor we remembered. There also wasn't much barbecue meat on the sandwiches, making them feel skimpy for the price. This isn't about being cheap--it's about value. We don't mind paying for good barbecue, but for the price we expected more. The combo didn't feel worth the extra cost. The side portions were very small. We were also concerned about the restroom. It was located near the kitchen, appeared rundown, and did not seem properly maintained or sanitized. A toilet brush was leaning against the wall, which added to the unclean appearance. Its condition made us question the restaurant's overall cleanliness and whether proper handwashing and food-handling practices were being followed. The most concerning issue happened after we ate the food at home. Both of us became very sick after eating from the same order. The photos included with this review were originally taken because we planned to share a positive post supporting a local restaurant we had enjoyed. We even noticed the sign encouraging customers to take photos, tag the restaurant, and share their experience. Unfortunately, after what happened, we decided to include the photos only to document our visit, what we ordered, and the condition of the restaurant. Between the unexpected combo upcharges, small portions, skimpy sandwiches, overly sweet barbecue sauce, bland food, cleanliness concerns, and both of us becoming sick afterward, this was a very disappointing experience. We hope management takes these concerns seriously and reviews its food preparation, storage, sanitation, restroom maintenance, and overall quality control. Sadly, after this experience, we no longer feel comfortable returning.
