    My friend and I were looking for some good soul food out in Vegas and stumbled across this cute place. We went on a Saturday morning around 10:30-11 and waited about 45 minutes to be seated. After that, we needed some time to look at the menu because we wanted to try it allll. The food came out pretty quick after we ordered, within about 8-10 minutes and the server was extremely friendly and helpful! Holy trinity: great plate, we got 2 catfish fillets and 1 chicken wing to try it out but I definitely recommend getting all chicken . Maybe I'm just not a catfish person but if there were something to dress it up with other than hot sauce I may have liked it better. The collard greens were also just a bit salty but they were still not bad. Shrimp n grits: half fried shrimp and half grilled, we added mushrooms, grilled onions and cheese and it was yummy! Biscuits n gravy: sausage was smoky and biscuits were fluffy and soft, homestyle potatoes and eggs were also good. Sweet potato waffle: by far my favorite thing I had, this thing is amazing and I 1000% recommend getting one or two! It was absolutely delicious. Overall good place to check out when you're in town!

    Wow! Everything perfect savory not over salted. Hostess Wait staff and cashier friendly accommodating and attentive. Came from California and all I got to say is Roscoe's, who?!

    "We are SO back" again! Best food, hospitable service and home atmosphere. My fish was fresh, hot and juicy and not at all fishy. No swamp taste at all. The mac & cheese was creamy and cheesy and the noodles cooked just right. The collard greens were delicious. I did think that something was missing, but I am used to loading a ton of smoked meat in the greens that I cook at home. So, the greens were absolutely delicious. My friend enjoyed his chicken wings and waffles. We will be back next month too.

    We didn't realize we'd eaten here before until we arrived, but we were just as impressed this time around. The food and service were both excellent. 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!

    Gritz Café Review "The Day Vegas Introduced Us to Catfish, Sweet Potato Waffles... and a Missing Collard Green Mystery." June 17, 2026 -- the day Tiffany got insider intel from a Vegas local who told her, "You HAVE to try Gritz Café."That was all she needed to hear. She told me, I checked my Las Vegas Yelp food list, and sure enough -- Gritz Café was already saved. Destiny. Since Tiffany was already near the restaurant and I was still at the hotel, I ordered online. We couldn't enjoy the dine‑in experience this time, but we're saving that for the sequel. The Orders Tiffany went with one of her go‑to comfort dishes: Biscuit & Gravy Scrambled egg hard Potatoes with fried onions I saw Catfish on the menu and immediately felt spiritually connected. I ordered The Mississippi: 3 fried catfish pieces (grilled next time) Collard greens Steamed mixed vegetables Sweet Potato Waffle Extra tartar sauce Extra syrup Then came the hardest part: waiting for Tiffany and the food.I'm a smart husband, so I won't say which one I was more excited for. The Arrival... and the Plot Twist Tiffany arrived with the food, we unpacked everything, and immediately noticed two things missing: My collard greens Her scrambled egg Vegas giveth, Vegas taketh away. Tiffany's Biscuit & Gravy She said it was outstanding, even with the twist:The sausage was cut into pieces and placed on top instead of mixed in.Different, but delicious.Only the missing egg kept it from perfection. My Catfish & Waffle Combo The catfish wasn't as big or thick as the ones I get back home, but the flavor was outstanding -- seasoned and cooked perfectly. The Sweet Potato Waffle?A revelation.Perfect size, perfect thickness, perfect flavor.I'm now a believer. The steamed vegetables were... vegetables.They served their purpose and made me feel like I made at least one healthy decision. But I was really looking forward to those collard greens. Customer Service Redemption Tiffany called the restaurant and was transferred to the manager, Olivia.She was extremely apologetic and assured us the refund would hit my card by the end of the day.(At the time of this writing, it hasn't shown up yet -- but we're giving Vegas grace.) Final Verdict Even with the missing items, the food was delicious, the flavors were on point, and the service recovery was handled well. We're excited to return -- in person -- on our next Vegas trip.Because Gritz Café deserves a proper dine‑in moment.

    I cant recommend this place enough. Well worth the wait. The costs are a bit high, but it's not obscene for the quality of the food. Our server was kind, helpful, attentive, and just everything you look for in a server. We waited about 20 minutes to be sat, but you'd expect that at a breakfast place at breakfast time. No concern there. I ordere chicken fried steak- amazing, gritz bites - double amazing, tried my husbands sweet potato waffle - triple amazing! The mac and cheese was just fine. I would easily go back again just got the chicken fried steak, sweet potato waffle, or gritz bites. The ambiance is quite nice. Theres a table dedicated to the matriarch of the establishment, which really adds to the southern, home cooked vibes. The to go counter was busy the whole time we sat, but they seemed to move quickly. We were close enough to the door to hear the hostess telling people they were running out of certain items and that the would had increased to 30 or 40 minutes. Be sure to get there early to not miss out. Everyone was friendly, and the food was phenomenal. Can't ask for anything else.

    Amazing customer service, I am definitely going back, the food is so delicious and hot, the chicken is perfectly seasoned, the grits are savory, but the waffle! Sooooooo delicious.

    Stopped by Gritz Cafe while in town for an AKA sorority conference, and it was a mixed bag. When we first arrived around 1:30pm we were told the inside was closed and only to-go orders were being taken. After standing in line for about 10 minutes to place a to-go order, we were suddenly told we could sit inside after all. We put our name on the waitlist for a table, but it ended up getting given to another party -- seems like there was some miscommunication among the staff. Thankfully, we were able to place our order while waiting, so the food came out shortly after we finally got seated. The space was small and pretty crowded, especially with other conference attendees also stopping in. I ordered the Big Gritz Breakfast -- 2 wings, 2 catfish, eggs, and a waffle -- and it was excellent. So good and filling I needed a nap afterward. The staff were genuinely apologetic about the mix-ups and even gave us free waters on our way out, which was a nice gesture. Between the food and that effort, I'd still swing by again if I'm back in Vegas -- just hoping for a smoother start next time.

    My wife and I came here the other day and had a great experience! We ordered the Gritz Bowl with fried shrimp and jalapeños, Biscuits & Gravy with potatoes, the Sweet Potato Waffle, and the Butter Pecan Waffle. We stacked the waffles ourselves and they were both delicious! Everything came out fresh and tasted great. The fried shrimp were crispy, the gritz were creamy, and the biscuits and gravy were definitely one of my favorites. Our server, Khasheana, was awesome! She was very attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without making us feel rushed. She really made the whole experience that much more enjoyable. The inside was really nice too. There was a lot of cool artwork throughout the restaurant that gave the place a fun and unique vibe. Great food, great service, and a really nice atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

    The food was amazing and full of flavor! The hostess was so nice and accommodating. I'd definitely recommend this place!

    Now i hardly, if ever, give 5 stars. But man! The hype around this spot was real, and i see why!!! If 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

    This place is definitely cute, and everyone we interacted with was genuinely friendly. We decided to check it out after seeing it featured on Somebody Feed Phil. The food was good, but it just didn't have that "wow" factor I was hoping for. It was a fun experience, but the wait was extremely long, and the location was a bit out of the way for us. Was it worth trying? Absolutely, especially if you're curious after watching the show. Would I come back? Probably not--but I'm still glad we gave it a try.

    This place is a 10/10, if you get there at the right time. The food is Amazing! The best catfish I ever had. I strongly suggest getting there super early or after 12. The staff is nice, but eating are inside is small, but that's not problem. The one thing I did not like was the Flop. Minor issue, next time I am in LV is pulling up.

    Been to Roscos long time ago...im sure good but this place in Vegas is always on my mind

    Let me be honest--go ahead and skip Lolo's altogether and come here instead! There was no wait,…read moreand both the food and service were amazing. 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

    Love! It's sad when businesses don't make it, I was lead here trying to go back to a place we went…read morebefore that had delicious catfish. Thankfully this place fit the bill! 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. It stinks how I found them but I'm SO glad I did!

    The service was amazing, we were greeted immediately open entry and she even helped pick out food…read moreas it was my first time there! The food was really tasty!! The catfish is fried to perfection and the okra!! The black eyed peas were seasoned so damn good!!!! I also tried the greens and they were pretty good too! The Yams were flavorful and not too sweet or mushy for my likings! The Mac and cheese was pretty decent. The drink of choice was the koolaid and lemonade mixed which brought me back to my Alabama living days! The ambiance reminds you of being in a family owned restaurant, there's pictures on the wall and you can even see them cooking the food in the kitchen which I thought was pretty cool! I will definitely be visiting them again while I'm in town!
