Nellie’s Southern Kitchen

The Southern Chicken Salad Sandwich is amazing and, apparently, under rated on the menu. I don't see many photos of it in the Yelp reviews so I have to assume that chicken salad is somewhat less ordered. But I was at the restaurant for lunch and wanted something simple and hand-held. I'm really glad that I ordered it because it was unlike any chicken salad that I'd had before. I couldn't tell you what herbs or seasonings gives this sandwich its flavor, but it is unique and delicious. It was my last day and I wasn't looking for an expensive lunch or a particularly "Vegas" experience, so this casual place fit the bill. I'm not implying that it isn't nice; it is. But it's casual and comfortable, which is what I needed. They only points that I'll take off is the fact that I lost my credit card at the restaurant. Now of course, that is my fault. But, I left the card in the check book and wish that the server had given it to the bar, the host stand, or the hotel security. I checked back later that day, in the evening, and the next morning before I left. Nothing. The hostess on the following morning suggested that it might still be in the book, and I asked if we could go back and have a look, but was denied. Kind of a bummer since it takes two weeks to get a replacement card. More proactive customer service would have been much appreciated. Overall, a quality lunch experience.

Nellie's Southern Kitchen at MGM Grand in Las Vegas has a lot of potential, but unfortunately, it didn't fully hit the mark for me. I was excited to dive into some soul food, but my experience was a mix of highs and lows.First, the collard greens--what a disappointment! I'm a big fan of collard greens and, being someone who can make them myself, I've got high standards. These were sweet, and let me tell you, I never thought I'd say this, but sweet collard greens are just not my thing. They totally missed the mark for me.The mac and cheese, while decent, was just okay. The pasta was overcooked, which took away from the dish, and it could've used a little more flavor to stand out.I will say that the fried chicken was pretty good, and you get three pieces. While it wasn't the most mind-blowing fried chicken I've had, it was satisfying enough.On the positive side, the service was excellent, and that made the whole dining experience a bit more enjoyable. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made the meal feel a little more worthwhile despite the food not meeting my expectations.Overall, it was an experience. Not one I'll rush to repeat, but not entirely a failure either. If you're in the mood for soul food, it might be worth a try, but don't expect the full authentic soul food experience.

Owned and operated by the family of the Jonas Brothers, this is a nod to their grandma and her homestead. The unique design in decor and menu choices pays homage to her roots.The menu offers all the comforts of slow cooked home cooked meals from Southern Hospitality. I had the chicken fried steak and collard greens. This plate was enough for two! Generous portions indeed, served here. My other half ordered the chicken and waffles and between him and my kiddo, they barely finished it. We also had to try the homemade biscuits - butter and jam to compliment that yummy mouthful. It was delicious. Free refills on coffee! This was a great brunch and lunch spot. I can only imagine what the dinner portions are like.

Food is decent from your choices in the MGM. It's definitely not the best food on the strip but considering the options in MGM, it's not bad. Nice "souther food" at higher prices (which is expected, it's vegas). The staff is very friendly and the biscuits were probably the Best thing I tried here... they were REALLY good!!!

I'm a pretty good judge for some good quality southern food. Unfortunately Nellie's didn't have that. It was very "generic" and honestly just a more expensive Cracker Barrel. We tried the bbq pork and the chicken fried steak. The bar tender was solid but outside of that I would try something else.

We had dinner at Nellies and it was excellent! The staff was very kind and friendly! I had a cobb salad and wine! My friend got a cheeseburger! Very good ambience. I highly recommend Nellies!

Tried Nellie's on Saturday right before a comedy show. It's way in the back on the casino in the District. The place is spacious. They had live music that night which was good. I ordered the catfish with fries and my friend ordered the shrimp and grits. I'm happy got to sub my coleslaw for fried okra. Everything was good but my catfish was a little oily. The server was attentive. I would return if I go back to Caesars.

Good food. Not likely to return but it was good. Service took forever. Pricey. We will update review further tonight.

Y'all let me tell you something.. I'm a pescatarian and bar food could be tricky to order when it comes to proteins. I came in yesterday with a few of my friends in the last hours of our time in LV, ordered a catfish po boy after at least 20 mins of deliberation (shout out to bartenders Stephanie and James for their hospitality and patience!!) -- AND BOY OH BOY. CHEFS KISS! I've never had catfish before and this sandwich blew it out of the water. The CRISP will remain in my fondest memories and that kitchen will forever be appreciated. I'm not a sports fan and rarely go to sports bars because of it, but between the amazing service, delish drinks (bourbon mule!!!), and THAT CATFISH. UGH. I will definitely be back. Thank you!

My friend and I stopped in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the food was! The service was fantastic, I wish i remembered her name but she was quick to greet us and the food runners were super attentive. Our drinks were never empty and they definitely pay attention to their guests. We shared the kobb salad, sweet potato fries & banana pudding. Everything was AMAZING. The sweet potato fries were definitely on the sweeter side but still delicious! Would definitely stop in again, it's worth it!
