Mountain West is a blend of both Filipino and Southern Soul Food. The menu features all the Filipino classics - silog of all kinds, kare kare (a stew made with beef and peanut butter), and caldereta. Then they have Southern flavors like shrimp and bacon grits. A DJ played Christmas songs from a small platform. One standout feature was the service. When we went there was a busy Sunday brunch in attendance. Maryann was the sole person working the tables and the register. Now and then the owner would come out to help, but Maryann commanded that room like a Pro. No complaints and no fuss from customers. Bottom line - they serve great food and have excellent service. I highly recommend! read more

I really wanted to love Mountain West Eatery. The space is super clean and modern, and the aesthetic definitely gives a nice, updated vibe. It feels like a place you'd want to sit down and enjoy a good brunch. That said, the experience didn't quite live up to the setting. The wait for the food was pretty long, which I can usually overlook if everything else hits the mark. Unfortunately, it didn't this time. I came in specifically craving a traditional Filipino breakfast -- bangus (milkfish), garlic rice, and egg. Instead, what came out was fried tilapia with hash browns and bread. Being that this is a Filipino restaurant, I feel like the waiter could have been a bit more forthcoming and confirmed whether that was actually what I meant to order. To me, that kind of attention is what separates mediocre service from best-in-class service. When I asked about it, the response I received was a bit dismissive and came across as though I had simply ordered the wrong thing. I ended up having to order garlic rice separately because my two kids were also hoping for a more traditional Filipino breakfast plate. As for the food itself, it was okay -- but honestly a bit mid for the price point. Compared to spots like D'Pinoy Joint and Cucina Lorraine, the prices here feel extremely high for what you get. This was actually my second time giving the place a try, hoping maybe the first visit was just an off day. Overall though, while the restaurant looks great, the food and service didn't quite match the expectations. If you're looking for a modern space to grab a meal, it might work for you -- but if you're craving authentic Filipino breakfast flavors, there are better options around town. read more

I've been hearing a lot of chatter about Mountain West Eatery, so I decided to give them a try by bringing a group of folks from church for our outting. Making a reservation online was super easy and efficient, which I appreciated! When I arrived, the exterior looks like this would be some chain restaurant, with a larger than life staff & facility. But once I entered and got familiar with the restaurant, it's very much more like a small family owned restaurant. The type where the owners & family members are working both in the kitchen and the front of house. There was a live DJ on my visit, that had nice tunes the whole time I was there. He even lowered the music when my group and I prayed over the food, which I thought was an extra special cool touch! Thanks for that mister DJ! Apparently they have karaoke nights too. There were three staff working the front of house. A lady that was at the register most of the time, who seems the most knowledgeable and had amazing hospitality! - a young gentleman that was tall, pair pulled back. He was very hospitable and helpful. I think he was one of the main servers. - and an even younger guy, likely a busser or back waiter. He was not friendly at all! He was actually quite rude and aggressive. (Maybe he was having a bad day) Although we had a large group, they were pretty efficient and effective at getting our orders and helping us through the process. Unfortunately, since it's a large group, our food came out at very different times. There was probably a 10 min gap between the first dish that came out to the last dish that came out. Which, towards the end, left half our table done eating while the other half was still going. The restaurant serves a very wide range of food: Breakfast, BBQ, American, Filipino We pretty much tried all genres in our group, and we had mixed reviews, but most of it was positive! I think some of the reviews on the breakfast items were average. But the Filipino food was amazing! Especially mine. I had the Sinigang and it was delicious!! I noticed a few other people around the restaurant ordering it too. I see why! Lots of flavor. Restrooms needed some attention and sprucing up. Overall, great place to try. These smaller family owned places have some of the best food, so I recommend giving them a try. read more

Came here on a weekday at about 4pm, so definitely past lunch and before any dinner crowds - it was only us and one other dining group there. Server was very friendly and kind and helped make some recommendations for food. I'm Filipino and was craving some homestyle cooking, so I got the adobo. My daughter got the spamsilog, and my husband got catfish, ribs, collard greens, and Mac and cheese. The adobo was ok, it seemed like it had been simmering all day by how salty and emulsified the oils were with the sauce. The serving was interesting, it was a bowl of adobo and then a super small cup with the rice... maybe it's just my family and I but I'm used to rice being on a bigger plate so that I can add sauce and chicken to it, not the other way around, so here I had to add the rice to the adobo sauce, and it just felt imbalanced. The chicken itself was tender. No complaints from the Spam plate: spam was fried well, scrambled eggs cooked thoroughly, and the garlic rice was delicious. My husband said his catfish was good, but suspected it was frozen. The ribs were tough, and the sauce was ok. Overall an ok meal, not terrific, but nothing super stand out. I would definitely come back to try the other Filipino food offerings. read more

If you are familiar with the comedian Jo Koy, this restaurant is owned by his sister. We stopped in for breakfast before our drive back to LA and I was impressed on how spacious the layout is, complete with a dedicated bar and a stage for live entertainment. Although Mountain West Eatery serves a unique mix of Southern comfort food and Filipino food, I went with the Tapsilog. It didnt disappoint! The beef tapa was very tender and it had somewhat of a nice sweetness to it. I also sampled the pork belly, which was equally delicious. Service was great. Our food arrived just minutes after we ordered. read more

Made it to Mountain West Eatery, Gemma's restaurant--Jo Koy's sister--located in the southwest of Vegas. I knew going in that they serve a mix of Southern comfort food and Filipino dishes. Went with a friend for lunch fully planning to order Filipino food, but I just wasn't in the mood anymore. I ended up getting the Southern catfish sandwich, while my friend ordered the fish and grits. For me, the food was a bit mediocre, but the service was excellent. The space is roomy with a relaxed atmosphere, and there's a lot to choose from on the menu. I'd give it another chance and try something different next time. read more

We had a nice breakfast here, as usual and I realized I had not reviewed lately. We were greeted warmly and invited to select our table. I ordered my favorite Longsilog Breakfast. It's a sweet Filipino style sausage served with 2 eggs and garlic rice and I had toast (you can also choose pancake). I also ordered an Iced Chai which is great. My BF ordered an omelette with the Smothered Potatoes which he enjoyed. Service is fairly quick and it filled up pretty quickly closer to 10am with a good, steady vibe of groups and regulars coming in. We mainly come in for breakfast although I have been in for dinner once and that was good too. One of our regular spots. read more

Came here with my family on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. We were seated right away. There was also a DJ playing some great hits. We ordered 1/2 bangus-silog with garlic rice and upgraded the toast to a pancake. We also ordered the Lechon. The 1/2 bangus-silog was delicious! The fish was nice and crispy on the outside and the meat on the inside was cooked perfectly. The vinegar sauce that it came with enhanced the dish. The garlic rice was also garlicky. The pancakes were buttery. I did wish it was fluffy. The Lechon was also nice and crispy! There was a good amount of meat and less fat on these which I liked. The veggies were fresh! We wished out waitress came around to check on us. We needed to flag her down to get some water and napkins. Another thing was they didn't have a safe high chair for our daughter. The strap did not buckle. She said that they only had 1 high chair. That is definitely a safety hazard. Overall, we enjoyed the food and music. read more

Stopped in this place as a recommendation from someone while I was in town for the weekend. It was a Friday afternoon and only one other party was in the restaurant at the time. After ordering our food, it took about an hour to come out, which would have been overlooked if our food came out piping hot, which wasn't the case for any of the four dishes. Pros: fresh cut fries, large menu to try Filipino cuisine, happy hour is 3p-close. Cons: possibly low staff, food takes a while, waiter told us their Mac&Cheese is "hit or miss" and they make it to order.. cabbage was cold and flavorless, catfish was hard. Would not recommend, but hoping this was just an off day for the restaurant. read more

Mountain West Eatery is a restaurant that offers your typical American fare like weekend brunch, as well as Filipino favorites and Southern fare. We stopped by on a Sunday afternoon and the restaurant was relatively busy. There were a few empty tables that had yet to be cleaned, but we noticed a few groups that still had not ordered yet. There was one couple before me and then my party. I took a seat and waited as a few staff members walked by and didn't say anything. I was wondering if I was going to get any acknowledgment, when someone finally said they are going to clean a table for us. We looked over the extensive menu and was ready to order and just waited. We did notice that a large group got their order in right before us, so we were anticipating a bit of a wait. The Husband's Country Fried Steak $16.99 arrived first, 15 minutes after we put our order in. He did ask for over easy eggs, but he got sunny side up ones. He also asked for extra crispy hash browns and didn't get that either. He couldn't be bothered letting them know as it would only delay his order. He did want condiments like ketchup and hot sauce, and we had to flag someone down to get those things. Next to arrive was mine - Shrimp and Bacon Grits $17.99. It was good, but the grits were not hot enough as you can tell the cheese did not melt. I would guess they plated the grits first and it sat while my eggs and shrimp were being cooked. Once that was plated on top of the grits, the cheese was added. The cheese melted nicely on my eggs, but not on the grits part. Next was the Little Gal's Kids Hawaiian Grilled Cheese $9.99. It looked like an amateur grilled cheese sandwich. There was nothing special about it. She ate it because she was starving. Last to arrive was the Little Guy's 1/2 Bangus Silog $16.99. This arrived about 15 minutes after the Husband received his order, which meant he was pretty much done by the time my son got his food. A staff member did come by after I got my order to say the other orders were coming shortly, but it still took a little while. We expected the wait because of the larger party before us, but didn't expect the food to be brought out with such a huge gap. If this was the case where we waited for everyone to get their food before we all ate, there would have been a bunch of cold dishes sitting around. I noticed this was also the case with other tables too. Service was okay. There were about three servers handling takeout orders, delivering food and taking table orders and one busboy. Sometimes there was no one on the floor though, so you definitely wondered where everyone went. I went to use the restroom and expected that the bill would be paid while I was gone. But when I returned, the Husband said he was still waiting for someone to come by. Would we go back? Probably not. The food was only okay, the service was only okay, and the pace wasn't what we are used to. read more

I came here a couple years back for catfish and apparently didn't review it. Woman came across them recently for the bbq so we came back one Sunday night. It was later in the evening and only one other patron was present. Xander was extremely kind and knowledgeable about the menu. Great person to ask your questions to! I was torn between lumpia and chicken skin. He said both were really good choices with explanations. We chose the lumpia. They're made w pork which was new to me. They were fine but I'd honestly wished we chose chicken skin after getting them. I will say they were very hot and fresh. We had more questions but ultimately I did the kare kare w crispy pork belly. Xander told me they were out of the paste which mattered none to me. Woman did the wings and fish combo w mac n cheese and greens plus corn muffins. I can take or leave cornbread but I accidentally ate a whole one. Whoops. My mother is one of the toughest food critics. She LOVED the fish and wings. Said they were cooked perfectly and seasoned well. I'd been bringing home wings from different places but according to her, these are the flavors she was after. I didn't try her greens but the Mac was flavorful and cheesy. Xander said it had him in a chokehold! Lmfao and the wings were crispy w that down south vibe. My food was very hot and covered in peanut sauce. That's a win for me lol. I did garlic rice instead and it was delicious. I will say mine got better later as it cooled a the flavors blended more. The eggplant and bok choy were so good. I def didn't miss any paste. I would go back and try more and checkout the entertainment they're working on incorporating. When I went before there was no stage. Now they have a stage, host and themed nights they do. Gemma was so sweet in explaining it and helping us w containers for to go. I thought she might've been Jen. Guessed wrong but Jen was there and we got to tell her how delicious her food was. Would I go back? Well I have lol. And yes. I would try the chicken skin as an app though. Xander said the bbq was A-/B+ so I'm not sure I'll go there but they're definitely good at what they do. Cheers again to Xander and Gemma! I believe they're family but either way they're fabulous! read more

This is a Filipino/Southern style restaurant. Parking was easy and we were able to park right outside. As we entered you can hear the 80s music playing in bg. Just like visiting an uncle on holiday. There are multiple tvs with a different program for each screen. They have a mini stage for performances I guess, or maybe karaoke? It is a Filipino spot after all lol. No actual greeting. Waitress just threw menus on the table lol. She was nice though. We mentioned our food allergy and she even had it on the receipt. So appreciate that! I ordered Crispy Fried Catfish & Waffles. It was Made to order. The catfish was still hot and crispy on the outside with the inside tender. I didn't even need a knife. It was so easy to cut the fish with just a fork. Same for the waffles. So good. I enjoyed the tarter sauce for the fish but honestly, the fish was really good even without the sauce. The meal also came with a cup of cantaloupe fruit. We also had turon with ube ice cream for dessert. Not bad. Overall great time. Thank you! read more

First time at Mountain West Eatery and so glad we decided to stop by and dine in. Thanks to my parents for the delicious lunch and lovely company. The restaurant is a good size. The place is very welcoming and has plenty of tables and chairs for dining. Delicious food and portion sizing is great. Plenty of food items and choices on their menu. Our food order consists of Spamsilog with pancake and garlic fried rice, Bangus Silog w/pancake and garlic fried rice, Crispy Fish & Waffles, Rib Tip & Chicken Wings w/basement rice and corn on the cob, Sweet & Sour fish fillet Asian style and for dessert we ordered the Turon w/Ube ice cream. All the specialty dishes we ordered were fire. So good! Their garlic fried rice wasn't salty and the rice was cooked just right. The bangus wasn't over fried. Rib tip was flavorful and tender. Fish fillet Asian style was on point. The sauce was great pairing with the crispy fillets. The 5 pieces Turon with Ube ice cream was icing on the cake. The Turon was filled with banana and jackfruit. They definitely didn't skimp on the banana and jackfruit. The Ube ice cream was perfect. Shares our experience at Mountain West Eatery with all our social circles. We can't wait to go back in a few weeks to try other items on their menu. read more

We came here for the Manny Pacquiao fight. It was a very busy night but the hostess did her very best to make sure we are seated. The staff were all working so hard and tried their best to make sure everyone was happy. We had a great time watching the fight with everyone. We ordered the mountain sampler that had calamari, lumpia, chicken wings, and onion rings. Everything was so good! You can tell they put love into their food. The lumpia had fresh shredded pork and super crispy. We saw other Philippino dishes and they look tasty as well. The pancit looked delicious. They are a Filipino restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner. read more

We come to Mountain West Eatery often for both breakfast and dinner, and it's always a good experience. The customer service is wonderful every time--friendly, welcoming, and consistent. No matter when we visit, we always order the Crispy Catfish, and it's always cooked well with great flavor. For breakfast, we enjoy the Filipino dishes, especially the Pork Tocino and Longsilog. From the Hot Breakfast Hits, the Shrimp and Bacon Grits is another favorite. The atmosphere is relaxed, and Friday night karaoke adds a fun and lively vibe. Overall, it's one of our go-to spots, and we definitely recommend it. read more

The girlfriend and I decided to try a new breakfast place and this is where we ended up. At first glance, the inside is a bit confusing the decorations were sort of all over the place, but still had good vibes. They were playing 90s R&B I mean that's cool, but I want to eat my breakfast not get freaky with it lol but our waitress was really nice. Now for the food, we waited about 20 minutes for our food considering we were the first ones there and the other patrons got their food first. My girlfriend ordered the French toast sandwich and as you can see by the picture the cheese was not melted, It looked kind of sad. The rib tips were ok, the potatoes and eggs are really good. Now for the kicker the pancake that you see in the picture was supposed to come out with all of our food, but it didn't. It took another 10 minutes just to get one pancake, and it was kind of bland no flavor to it. Is it worth the price? Meh, you can get a lot more with that price, yes I know we could've gone somewhere else but we wanted to try a new place. read more

Came in for brunch. What a Miss. We waited too long, over 30 mins for two Raw pancakes for $7.99, which tasted like reused oil or burnt butter...very disappointed. When our server finally approached our table they smelled of cigarettes and the other server who seated us was vigorously rubbing his eye before then handing us the menu. They also gave us waters that touched the living plants on the table and didn't give us a replacement. The breakfast platter ($22), was salty and everything is grease flavored. hash browns were undercooked and tasted like sausage oil. Idk. The whole experience was nothing short of disappointing. read more

The service was timely, and the people was friendly, the dj had nice music, but the food was HORRIBLE. From the bacon brisket sandwich, the smoked chicken, the chili, gumbo, and last but not the least the salad was nothing like pictured.

Oh my gulay, I have no idea why I've never tried this place sooner!!! The downside of the experience was my son being extremely difficult and the wait for our food seemed longer than usual, maybe short staffed but we were crunched with time due to catching a flight and having to pack up. The greatest upside to dining in was meeting the owner, Jemma, Jo Koy's sister! I was a little starstruck, she was super nice, down to earth, and humble!!! I wanted to take a picture with her but I was too consumed with my son. Lol. Anyway, I was hella craving Filipino breakfast and it did not disappoint! I ordered the bangus silog and I love the crispness to it, best one yet! My bf ordered the pork belly kare kare, oh my gosh, masarap ang ulam!!!! Definitely want to come back with my family and try their dinner menu! Love the decor, gives me homey vibes and I absolutely love that they offer a variety of Filipino, American, and Southern cuisine! Our server was super friendly, attentive, and quick, she needs a raise! She ran the entire floor all alone. Big kudos to her! read more

It's our first time here but we canceled our order (3 ITEMS). We ordered at 11:25 am based on their Ordering Slip. It's already 12:01 noon and our food are not yet on our table.

Found this location on Yelp and do my surprise it's a fusion with Filipino food here in Vegas! Who doesn't love Filipino food? Came around lunch and this place does not look like a restaurant when you first park. When we walked in we noticed how big this location actually is. I was surprised that there wasn't much people eating, but glad we got to sit and eat pretty quick. The menu is huge! You are definitely going to need to come back a couple of times to try everything. We ordered the mountain sampler which had some of our favorites, adobo burrito, adobo meal, the Filipino longonisa breakfast and the kids chocolate pancake and Mac & cheese. Over all this place is a must try at least once. Atmosphere is also nice. read more

Mountain West Eatery Southern style dishes with Filipino vibe When you enter this open concept restaurant you can't help But notice a cool mural of the Grand Canyon - There also a bar off to the side (separate area) I checked it out and it had a few tables & bar chairs Came in for late breakfast- friendly staff at the desk - we were seated right away Renzo was our server. Ordered up coffee with crème (only thing was the creamer was Coffee Mate) I asked Renzo for cream they don't have regular creamer so he set me up with whole milk. $3.99 each (free refills) Ordered Biscuit's & Sausage Gravy with a side of Sausage Patties $16.99 - side (2) Patties $5.99 Everything was delicious - gravy was great and I really enjoyed the plate - it was a quality dish. Also ordered Chicken Wing Breakfast with Smothered Potatoes, Eggs & we opted for the (1) Pancake instead of toast. $19.99 Wings had a nice crunchy batter but they we a bit dry/overcooked, pancake was like a thin piece of cardboard & the smothered potatoes were really not smothered with anything- the description made us think that they would be covered with gravy but it really meant they came with scallion & bell pepper. I realize that's a southern thing (smothered potatoes)- our mistake we should have asked - ugh To be honest all in all that meal was disappointing What also bummed us out was that a couple who came in after we ordered our dishes were served their order while we just sat there waiting? If the kitchen was slow or having a problem with our order, somebody should at least have come up and mention that to us - Super Slow Service - it took over 20 minutes for are food to arrive We almost got up and left it was taking so long. Food seamed to be hit & miss Staff friendly Service slow Price = Expensive over $60 for two for breakfast plus tip Note: parking is a bit tight read more
