Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in Las Vegas Review-Journal. Updated July 2026.
Yardbird · The Strip
A Miami-founded Southern kitchen at The Venetian whose Chicken 'n Watermelon 'n Waffles pairs a cheddar waffle with bourbon maple syrup, spiced watermelon, and honey hot sauce. The whole-bird plate is the move if you want the full spread, and brunch draws a line on weekends.
Hash House A Go Go · Las Vegas
A sage-seasoned, Midwestern-leaning fried chicken built for portions that outsize the plate, served in sandwiches or towering benedict-style bennies. The Sahara Avenue location is one of several in the valley for a brand with deep local roots since its San Diego start.
Mississippi Mary’s Soul Food Cafe · Las Vegas
A longtime valley soul-food kitchen whose crispy fried chicken gets a proprietary seasoning blend, served with short ribs, gumbo, greens, yams, and mac and cheese. The West Charleston location remains in operation, a reliable stop for a full soul-food plate.
