Excellent food, fun lively ambience,and the service is great. Our server Yeni is very sweet and welcoming.
They don't serve chips and salsa while you wait for your meal here. And the prices on the menu didn't match the bill. We ordered a michelada, a bit too much tomatoe juice but it was good, a Large Menudo, they ask if you want hominy or pata, we ordered it with hominy but no pata. The hominy tasted bland. You can tell it's not cooked with the menudo, it's probably kept separately which means zero flavor. That was the only bad part about the menudo. The tripe and broth were very good. Lots of flavor. The huevos rancheros with chilaquiles were good. The green sauce for chilaquiles were spicy but good. The red sauce was delish. And the refriegues beans were good too. The pecan & caramel with ice cream pancakes were amazing! Nice place for the family. Pretty big restaurant and lots of items on the menu.
I order DoorDash I can't really rate the place ambiance but I can tell you the pozole ..pork of course, the real pozole kind!! Was delicious they pack it really good too I got the mini size and it was enough to be honest. The burger speak for itself, my daughter said it was really good.
This place has a wide variety of options on the menu. I got a Nutella strawberry crepe, which was enjoyable and crispy hashbrowns which were very crispy. Just how I like them. It was great service. I walked in and placed the order and it didn't take long. Seems like a very family, friendly ambience to grab a meal.
I saved this place on Instagram years ago and finally got the chance to try it while visiting Vegas. I know Ely's has multiple locations, but this one had the best reviews--so we went for it. I ordered the menudo and my friend got the waffle combo. We got our food to go, and even though the place was busy when we arrived, service was fast, friendly, and on point. Thankfully, there wasn't a line (even though I saw in the comments it can get packed), so we got lucky. Our order was ready in about 10 minutes. The menudo was absolutely worth it--rich flavor, great portion, and exactly what I was hoping for. Coming from Sacramento, this spot definitely lived up to the hype. My friend really liked the waffle combo too; solid all around. If you're in Vegas and looking for a good breakfast spot, especially if you're craving menudo, this place is definitely worth checking out.
Ely's was suggested to us by some friends. This place is not fancy at all. It is a very comfortable down home sort of spot. I feel like this is a place that mostly locals know and not so much the tourist. They have Menudo on the weekends. They have almonds of all kinds. They have lots of different kinds of pancakes with all different amazing kinds of toppings. They also have steak and eggs. Really, you can't go wrong eating any of the entrées here. Everything looks so good. The servers were very polite. The restaurant was clean. They were very patient with our group as well as we were a slightly large one and had a lot of different orders being put in. It was a really nice pleasant breakfast there. And I love all the little breakfast decorations on the walls. Super cute.
Ely's on Trop had that fire menudo!! No hominy, and we would have LOVED some hominy in it BUT otherwise it was fire!! The cafe de Olla was on point too!! Great customer service!!
Located on Tropicana and Eastern right next to Aladdin supermarket you'll find this amazing little gem. We arrived about 8:05 AM were greeted promptly as a nice hometown ambience field to it. But the food speaks for itself the Chilaquiles were made to perfection with two eggs and Carne Asada and green sauce would definitely go back highly recommend and the waffle wasn't bad either lol
This food is made with love. We came here on our way home from Las Vegas and we sat there and talked about how much it reminded us of family gatherings. The service is beyond amazing. And the restaurant feels like home. The chef deserves a Michelin star and their own show on food network!!!! Beautiful food and beautiful place.
The staff is extremely nice there's so many options so this is a perfect place for family because there's something for everyone here with that being said because there's so many options they're not specialize in anything so their food is just average it's not bad but it's not the best. That is why I'm giving it three stars just because the food is not the best tasting. But the prices are really good considering the portions, I did like their Tamarindo drink and their milkshake however their lemonades are just lemon with syrup and it just takes very artificial. So I was not the biggest fan the day that we went it was super busy but we got in super fast the staff is truly amazing I would definitely come here again but it wouldn't be my first pick
Finally stopped by here for all the Social Media hype I've seen. This is a good place, lots of options on the menu, we'll have to go back to try more of the menu, since there are so many options. We ordered the Ely's Mega Plate, it came with bacon cheese fries, buffalo chicken tenders and a bacon cheeseburger. The fries were really good, the burger was cooked well, the tenders were a little vinegary, but all in all alot of food. The steak chilaquiles were good, but the chile verde sauce was a bit too much regarding the lemon taste and I like lemons, but just too much, the meal was good and again, lots of food, and then we ordered the menudo, the part I really liked was they ask you if you want hominy or not, I'm a hominy person, so we ordered the medium size, wish they had the option of a cup, but the menudo was delicious, definitely I'll order this again. So, all together, our takeaway was we will be back to try the rest of their menu and the menudo is a return for item :) Their pancakes and waffles all looked really good and as long as the food continues on the positive trajectory, we'll be back for their vast options!!
Karla, (not sure if it is Karla or Carla) was our server. She was so nice & a smile up to her eyes. Our food was really good. I wasn't too hungry and I cleaned my plate good. At first we thought it was an American food style, but I saw it was Mexican food I got so excited. I love Mexican food. I remember when I was younger, I would do work around my friends house just so his grandma could pay me with her cooking! The flavors here so good. Just the right amount of spice. The place was clean, large dining room. Good music playing and happy people everywhere!! read more

Menudo 7 days a week! My friends were craving menudo on a Monday morning before we left Vegas and most places only do weekends. I was looking at all the variety of pancakes! I've been here before and have had their wonderfully topped pancakes. This time I got one of their skillets with bacon. Come with like home fries/potato and egg, with toast or pancake. It's such a big portion!! My friends helped me, but I still had a small box to take home. I made one of my friends get a side of beef feet to go with his menudo. It was literally fall off the bone! I love how they had the condiments ( limes, oregano, chili flakes, and onions) all on one plate. I also like the option of you want hominy in your menudo. My friend and I are not huge fans and f hominy. I'm there for the "meats" and soup with slot of onions and limes! Dang, I should have just gotten the menudo too! Service is excellent, from when we walked in til we walked out! Plenty of tables/seating. Plenty of parking. read more

Customer service: 10/10, Food: 10/10. Having frequented this establishment multiple times, I can attest that their culinary offerings are truly exceptional. Elys uniquely blends Mexican cuisine with American diner fare, offering a diverse menu featuring Mexican dishes alongside breakfast staples and specialty drinks. The Spanish rice is notably soft, moist, and flavorful, while the rice and beans are delicious. Every item I've ordered, ranging from traditional Mexican fare to classic American breakfast and shakes, has been consistently delicious. My top three preferred dishes: 1. Eggs with Green sauce 2. Red and Green chilaquiles 3. Ryan's Favorite. The eggs are cooked to perfection. My enthusiasm for this establishment is such that I've brought my entire family, and they were thoroughly satisfied. I highly recommend visiting Elys to experience authentic Mexican food. read more

Our server was amazing. He was on top of everything and it felt like he res our minds. We ordered two breakfast sandwiches and they were delicious. The best item was their Abuelitas French toast. The portion was great and it was very flavorful. I'd come back just for the french toast and cafe de olla read more

I love Elys. Doesn't matter which location we go to either the one here or the one in Green Valley both phenomenal and both offered the same things. When we came here, we decided to go to the location closer to my dad's so we came to this one. The server was really nice and joked around with us and was really just a good time. Overall his energy was really nice and that's what I like to see in someone in the service industry. He gets a five stars just for being him. The restaurant is small and quaint. It's not overly large or overly decorated. It's kind of like a home cozy feeling. I always get the Menudo here. It is my favorite thing. Honestly, the best Menudo that we probably have in Las Vegas aside from my dad's, but that's a Personal bias. My boyfriend got the Chilaquiles this time. He's a little more adventurous, but he says everything that he's tried on the menu is really good, but he loved the Chilaquiles. We will absolutely be back. read more

Stopped by Ely's for post Saturday night recovery fuel. It was 5 minutes away from our AirBnb. Oscar, our server and the cook, was great. We could tell he was handling things solo for the most part. We weren't in a hurry so the wait, which wasn't super long, didn't bother us. I had the asada chilaquiles bowl with red and green salsa while my friend had the Mexi-burrito with potatoes. After Oscar took our orders, the food arrived pretty quickly. The chilaquiles were sooo good! I was really happy with my choice and felt revitalized after my meal. Oscar was very thoughtful and put the cilantro and onions on the side because he realized I wasn't asked if I wanted cilantro and onions on the chilaquiles. (I did. The thought and care here is what got me. Top notch service. ) My friend said the burrito was very tasty and it was large enough to have leftovers. I tried the breakfast potatoes that came with the burrito and they were cooked perfectly! Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. We both agreed Ely's is a solid choice for breakfast. If you're in a hurry, it may be better to call in your order and pick it up. But if you have the time to sit and relax, I highly recommend Ely's. Next time I visit I will try the menudo or pozole. I heard these were great also. I also enjoyed the music that was playing in the restaurant. Thanks again Oscar! See you next time! read more
Only one thing went bad during our experience but everything else was great that's why still gave 4 stars. First time trying this place. My brother raves about it. I ordered some blueberry French toast and a grilled cheese. My wife tried the chorizo burger and love the complementary chips and salsa they give in the beginning. Waitress was polite, fast, and helpful deciding what to get. Space was good size loved our booth. Comfy and table spacing was good. Also they have tvs on so can enjoy watching something while there. On sad thing my blueberries were bad. The compote on it tasted moldy. Wish it wasn't was wanting to eat them all instead I set the blueberries aside and just ate it with syrup. read more

This restaurant has a lot of tables and I hear it gets packed for breakfast. We stopped by for dinner. Our server sat us right away and took our drink order. I had the chicken Philly and it was pretty good. A good amount of filling and hoagie was toasted. It came with a side of fries that were hot and crispy. My friend had Ely's Mega plate which came with 3 fingers, a cheeseburger and a side of loaded fries. She enjoyed her food and had to take some to go. My other friend enjoyed her mixed fajitas that came with rice and beans and you can only select either flour or corn and not both w/o an extra charge. The menu is very expensive and has so many options to choose from. I want to go back and try breakfast and also the pozole/mendo. read more

Food was extremely impressive! I had the burrito and it was perfectly done and very filling. Also got the crepes what were well made and light. Finally the show stopper was the pozole. It was so damn good! One of the best I've ever had! Service was amazing. I believe Raymundo took care of us. He deserves a raise! Ambiance was great, rowdy a lot of movement and a lot of happy people with great food read more
Hidden Gem in Vegas. Second time coming here with both food and service being absolutely excellent! First time I ordered a Meat Lover's Omelette and second time I ordered green chile chilaquiles. They were both very flavorful and delicious. The waiters are attentive and polite. This hole-in-the-wall restaurant is a must try for locals and visitors. read more

Food was good. Ribeye steaks were junk. I wouldn't recommend that. Flat, Fatty, over cooked no flavor. Chips and salsa good chiliquilles good iced coffee good. Menudo good. Breakfast burger Bomb!Service slow but seemed under staffed. Server kept apologizing we said it was okay we understand. I wished we were better attended to but overall good food. $105 for 3 for breakfast in Vegas. Plus tip Probably won't go back but overall good. read more

Ely's is a roomie restaurant with space for small to large groups. They have a big menu to include many American and Mexican options from Menudo to a classic pancake ,egg and bacon platter. We stopped by here to have a good breakfast before heading to the airport for a long flight. I had a party of four and everyone enjoyed their meal. read more

Ordered my food today through GrubHub it's a Sunday. I normally love to place orders with Ely's for my steak,eggs and chilaquiles, but today my order was all messed up. It wasn't very good at all. My steak was very rubbery and oily my french fries were hard and oily like they had just been left in the oil, like the french fries were saturated with oil so needless to say my breakfast wasn't as good as I like it to be and I was highly disappointed. They are my go to for this particular breakfast. I don't know if I'll try this location again maybe another location but we'll see but was very disappointed. read more

I order did an online order thru door dash my pickup time was 11:45. I arrived at 11:46 before picking up my order. I stopped at the grocery store next door to grab an orange juice. Was greeted soon as I walked into the door. I showed my name for the order food was ready to go. Everything was good and my job is only 6 mins away from the restaurant. I get back to work sit to eat my food and it's already like Luke warm not the biggest deal but how long was it sitting and my pick up time was 11:45 and I picked up at 11:46? So I taste my my potatoes and eggs pancakes nothing is warm as if it's just got cooked. I try and cut the steak and it's not moving I'm using plastic utensil but it's not even making a scratch in the steak. The steak was so hard and tough I literally had to tear apart with my fingers and teeth. The best part of meal was the orange juice and the gentleman that greeted me when I came in. 0 out of 10 do not recommend. read more

Came to this small mom's and pops restaurant. My husband was craving menudo. They serve daily As you walk in the ambiance is very much a Hispanic warm feel. However once inside waiting for our order to be taken was a little disappointing took a whileI, they did apologize for the wait, so at least they are aware, I will say our dinks were served as we were seated. I love cafe de Olla this one was to sweet for my taste I would definitely use a different cup to serve the cafe de Olla its aluminum style was hot to even sip and hold, had to wait for it to cool down ( warm coffee ) The food was good I got a basic breakfast with biscuits and gravy was good. My husband enjoyed the menudo and he is picky! The breakfast options are vast. read more

Is there any entree that is gluten free here? Does this restaurant use a shared fryer for things like battered chicken that would cross contaminate foods like gluten free home fries? I have Celiac disease and have to eat gluten free.
