    We absolutely like The Meat Wagon. It was our first time here and we were delighted to see every single art pieces, decor, books for sale, arcade games and artwork in this restaurant. Even the wall art in the ladies bathroom was cute. We met Sunny she's an absolute joy. Spacious and clean lots of seating. The beverage station was awesome, we liked the hand crafted specialty drinks. A good selection of one of a kind items from the menu. My Love ordered the Loaded Carne Asada Fries and I ordered the Mushroom Steak and Swiss served on a Flat Bread. The food was awesome and very tasty! I love that they use Toasted Flat Bread for the sandwiches rather than the usual regular sandwich/burger bread. The Loaded Carne Asada Fries was a Wow! It was loaded for sure with lots of flavor and a good taste. One of those things where you gotta try it for yourself. The Rocket Fries were crispy and good too. I liked the Ruby Wave-Cherry Lemonade drink and My Love liked the Arnold Palmer. We recommend this place if you want to try something different and new. Thanks Team keep up the good work. My Love got a rubber chicken key chain from Sunny on the way out, that was cool, thank you Sunny. :)

    Great food, good ambience, and great for large groups that wants to have a good time. We came here on a team event to spend time with the families and teammates. It was nice to have a casual dining experience with good food with good value. I enjoyed their unique serving or plating. I would love to come back and try the other dishes on the menu.

    I think the place is closed now? So sad. The place was delicious. Food was fresh but on the heavier side. You order at the counter and then sit down. The environment was very unique.. the place had its own culture.

    Such great food here! I had the opportunity to meet the owners Pollyanna and Chris Yelp's Very Vegas Discovery Children's Museum event we had in November. They were some of the nicest vendors at the event and after sampling their food, I bookmarked the business for the future. Upon entering the place we were greeted warmly by the staff. We had a little one with us and they promptly provided a high chair at a great table. The interior has books for sale, a few games to play and the floorpan is an open concept. Service was absolutely the best! Nothing but smiles and staff that seem to really care about the food they are serving. My friend and fellow Yelper Stephany V. joined me for a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon. The menu is so diverse offering so many choices. It is impossible to try everything they offer so I will definitely be returning here so I can try more dishes. Dining with Stephany V. is always a good time as she can and will try anything. Her palate is so diverse. She tried the Green Chile Chicken and Hot Korean tacos while I went with the Free Bird Sandwich served with Rocket Fries. This was a huge sandwich that I could not finish but really wanted to. The chicken was so moist and juicy. The fry sauce was a delight too. After seeing the banana pudding listed for dessert, we had to have it. It was really creamy, luscious and rich. I definitely would order again. What a hidden gem this restaurant is and I am looking forward to returning again.

    We couldn't decide what to eat . As a family of 6 it's almost Impossible to agree on what to eat. We had thrown around the usual wing stop, and Olive Garden but we knew we wanted something yummier but still quick enough to allow us to be serviced quickly. You can order your food to eat in or take out. We decided to eat in as the diner looked inviting. We ordered the meat candy as a starter to share as a table. We then individually ordered the conspiracy theory of the day which was a delicious pastrami sandwich. Birra queso taco, the habanero carne asada taco, and the bacon truffle smash burger, and finally the little bird which are chicken fingers and fries. The food was out of this world! Like nothing we have had before. Each bite had a unique bite of flavor. This place is a must try!!! I can't wait to come to back and try different items.

    Every dish was cool to order, full of flavors and put a smile on your face. Free bird, brussel sprouts, pickle spears, carne asada fries, lil bird and some real tasty mango drink along with friendly service makes this a great place. Don't expect fast food, expect great food that takes some time to make - and worth the wait. And then encouraged to relax after a meal. Thank you thank you and see you again soon.

    One of the local Facebook foodie groups is constantly posting about how great this spot is, and I finally got a chance to go by this past weekend with friend and fellow Yelper, Renee N - and it totally lives up to the hype, and then some! Signage is a bit difficult to see from the street but you enter to an ordering counter, racks of books, holiday and alien-themed décor and several friendly faces. Service here throughout my visit was stellar - several employees checked in on us, offered ordering suggestions, brought over a high chair for my daughter, and were just super, super friendly and positive. They alone deserve five stars. The menu has a lot to offer, including appetizers, "gordita" tacos (served on a wrap similar to a pita) and sandwiches, plus desserts and several drinks. The flavors span the globe, with Korean, Mexican, barbecue, and seafood options, which actually made it difficult for me to order. Ultimately, I got the Green Chile Chicken & Hot Korean tacos, which came with house made potato chips, and the Dilly Wacker (fried pickle) appetizer while Renee got their chicken sandwich and we shared their banana pudding. Portions were fair, with the sandwich and dessert both being huge. Flavors were good, and their sauces especially hit home for me - my daughter especially liked their fry sauce. The tacos weren't huge but the protein was well portioned and the wraps held up well, and I barely put a dent in the chips. For bonus points, they are very child-friendly, with a diaper station in the bathroom that we definitely needed, and they were very understanding with my little one. Overall, this place didn't initially seem like "my kind of place" (the menu and space have a lot going on), but they totally won me over with their service and food. I will have to come back for their wings and seafood items!

    At our Yelp event last week at the Discovery Children's Museum, The Meat Wagon was one of the vendors. I learned that they have chicken and waffles but that's only one item on the menu. As I have gone by for several years, I noticed chicken and waffles one the sign and I knew that place wasn't for me. (Where I grew up, chicken and waffles never involved fried chicken). After meeting the owners at our event, I decided I had to try the place. I went for a late lunch/early dinner yesterday and had a great meal. I ordered the mushroom, steak, and Swiss flatbread sandwich. The menu describes it as: Grilled beef tenderloin, portabello mushrooms and Swiss cheese. It comes with their rocket fries. I also got a medium hibiscus peach iced tea unsweetened. I sat down and in a very short time, I was brought my sandwich. I was warned that the sandwich was very hot (temperature wise), and he was correct. The flatbread was very hot and I didn't singe my fingers. I had some fries as I let the sandwich cool off a bit. The flatbread was filled with steak and mushrooms with just enough cheese. This was my first flatbread sandwich, and it was excellent! It was a very nice way of getting out of cooking, too. The interior is a lot of fun! A south wall with a space theme and some other artwork that's fun to view. It added to the enjoyment of eating here. I paid the check where you order and chatted with the owner for a bit. Very friendly and welcoming person. I will be back. There's a lot on that menu and I still can avoid their chicken and waffles. I highly recommend the Meat Wagon.

    When you see a place with a near perfect 5 star review it definitely raises an eyebrow that needs to be investigated. Is it that good?!? To put it simply... YES! Walked into TMW & were instantly greeted & seated by the owner. The place has an alien abduction vibe & the menu follows the theme. The owner told us what they had ran out of for the day & then answered all of our questions about the dishes. I opted for the "Spicy Meat Candy" as an appetizer & presentation was perfectly awkward being served in a toilet. It was just the right amount of spicy & the corn was a nice touch lol For the main course I went with the Fat Boy Flatbread Chopped Philly Steak & damn that thing was fantastic! We all took a look at each other, silently nodded in approval & said to each other "Yup, that's where all the 5 star reviews came from." Shoutout to the owner for the warm welcome & for being a good sport posing for a quick photo. Let my pictures tell the story why you grab your car keys & pick what you're going to order.

    Recommended by the Genesis dealer as we were starving after buying a new car. Cute and clean decor. Super delicious burgers. Good selection of drinks. Wish this place was closer to me.

    Friendly and inviting customer service. Large dining area with awesome alien theme decorations throughout. An extensive menu with lots of options to choose from. I went with the truffle burger and fries, a brisket taco with a side of chips and an order of cheesecake pudding. everything was perfectly made and tasted great. They offer free restaurant themed stickers. And I love the fact that they sell books as well. I'll be sure to pick one up the next time I stop by.

    Staff was super friendly and answered questions about menu. Decor is quirky and dining room was consistently being cleaned while we were there. Food was excellent, very flavorful and filling. Sauces and toppings worked well together and super crispy fries. Decently priced and a large menu with an array of options id like to come back and try more

    Flatbread tacos, house made chips and yummy lemonade
    Ivy S.

    Today was my first visit to The Meat Wagon, but won't be my last, as there was so much on the menu I'd like to try. I ordered two flat bread tacos and then found out from the sweet girl at the front, that since it was Tuesday, it was buy two tacos, get one free, so I added another one that was included in the "free" options. The tacos were great, as everything takes so fresh. I, also, enjoyed their house made chips and flavored lemonade. The place is cute with weathered looking brick wall paper. I would have loved to hear some country music or even some Classic rock, but that's just my personal preference for a "meat" place.

NOPE. You got a nice bowl of soup and a decent size salad. Taste and quality is excellent! Our only tiny bit of feedback would be that the soups needs to be hotter every time we've gone it's lukewarm. Their gumbo soup is really good too. Every meal we've had has been a very nice size portion the quality has been really good, the steaks are tender not full of fat, and nothing has been overcooked or greasy (which I would kind of expect for a diner type of place). I was hesitant about trying the burnt steak ends with the kimchi fried rice and egg off of the summer promotional menu but I was actually quite impressed with the taste and quality and portion size it was way better than I anticipated. On the fried items such as the sampler platter appetizer the quality of it is good and it's not overcooked but the oil needs to be changed because the product is coming out kind of dark and makes it look like it's overcooked (but yet the chicken tenders were not dried out at all they were quite good. Probably the best ones I've had if they had just changed the oil) Whatever brand they're using for their salad dressings is excellent (It's not uncommon to find Caesar or ranch to be on the tangy bitter side but not theirs) We really like that they rotate the soups and the vegetable options everyday. And they also have one soup option that never changes. I wish they would do that for the vegetable as well and have one option that never changes. Service every time has been really friendly and attentive. There have been no issues with the timing of our meals we've never waited excessively long for any anything to come out to the table, drinks are always kept filled as well. Prices are reasonable especially for the portion of food size and the quality as well. And we don't really know any other diner type restaurant such as Denny's or IHOP that would include soup AND salad with almost every entree. The atmosphere is pretty much your diner style decor, the restaurant is very clean and we've never had any issues that we could see. We also really liked the promotional scratch off cards that they gave out for several weeks. That was one of the reasons it kept us coming back and trying other entrees. So other than that tiny little bit of feedback we will absolutely keep coming back. We've heard they're looking at opening three to five more locations around the valley and we look forward to one hopefully opening near the south summerlin area.

We have dined there in the past and have always sat at a table but we came in on a whim and there was only bar seating, which was fine. But the girl bartender (Annie??) was extremely mean and rude to us for some reason. We were polite, didn't complain about anything, didn't ask to modify our food at all and left over 20% gratuity. When we asked questions she talked to us like we were stupid. Everyone else was outstanding. The guy with the braids and Frank were awesome and the Sommelier was really cool and was passionate about his wine list. My fiancé and I are both industry vets and we understand that sometimes you aren't always in the best mood but this felt oddly personal. Again, we have no idea what we did wrong. The food was exceptional. Some highlights are: Oxtail hummus: The best hummus I've ever had and the oxtail was cooked to perfection. Oysters: we did half and half of both options and they were both great and super unique. Banh Cuon: Usually made with pork, they use duck and it is awesome. The sauce should be bottled. Octopus: Perfection on a plate. Passionfruit dessert: So, so good. Perfect way to end dinner after some spicy elements in the food. Pandan cocktail: One of the better drinks I've ever had. We had more food but these are the items I can remember off of the top of my head. This was from about a month ago but my Yelp account was hijacked and I haven't been able to get it back yet and had to make a new one . So overall everything was amazing except for that one issue.
