After being told by a place up the street that it would be 40 minutes to get a table by a hostess that seemed like she was forced to show up, we rode down to this lovely spot. We were delighted to receive fast, friendly service by smiling Susie R. Huge drinks served in big mason jars. Delicious chicken fried steak with country potatoes and great tasting home made gravy made for a great experience that surprised us. Their thing here is the banana bread. I opted for the banana bread instead of regular toast and it's nice they give you a choice. Ambiance is tasteful decor that cleverly used ladders and old windows throughout the restaurant. Kudos to your decor artist! I'd definitely come back here when traveling through here. If you have time go up to the Hemenway Park and see some beautiful wildlife in the form of big horn sheep. Sorry no pics of food. I was so hungry half the plate of food was gone by the time

Southwest Diner is located on the corner of Fifth and Nevada Hwy. it is easy to locate and access. Limited street parking is available as well as a small private lot behind the establishment. There is patio dining available where pets are welcome. Inside has two different decors; the original side is quaint with a small town kind of feel, whereas the new (remodeled?) side is more modern and streamlined. Servers greeted us warmly upon arrival. While our party was dining, I noticed that the waitstaff greeted a handful of regulars by name. Clearly, Southwest Diner is loved by the locals!!We had a rather large party of adults and a handful of small children, but Marisol took care of us with a smile and with efficiency. The food was served in generous portions and was prepared with love and care. It's typical diner fare, nothing that we ordered was gourmet, but it was definitely familiar, hearty, comfort food. The quality and portions of the food AND the friendliness and efficiency of the servers will have me stopping by again next time I'm in town.

ZERO STARSSo my husband and I came in on Saturday. And I ordered the avocado toast and my husband got a breakfast burrito. His burrito was good but mine was sad. But our breakfast was quickly ruined by staff due to the manager being very rude to me when I wasn't rude at all to her at all. Actually I was very calm and couldn't believe what was happening. My toast barely came with any avocado on it. Seemed like it was 1/2 of a 1/2 of an avocado. And very overloaded with scrambled eggs. So my husband asked the waitress if I could get a little more avocado. She then said she will get a manager and we didn't ask for a manager. Manager came over and was practically snapping at me over just a little more avocado request. She told me that there is a problem every time I come in and I haven't been here in a month and the last time 2 times I ordered I got just got toast and hot tea. Only time I had them take back a dish was last summer and it was because of an allergy I have and that particular item has to be cooked very well done and ever since then I just saved myself the time and only been ordering toast but this time I decided to order the avocado toast but realized that it was a mistake. I told them to just take it off my check because she wanted to stand there and belittle me and try to embarrass me which didn't work. I'm glad my husband stepped in and said something because no customer should be made to feel that way. He paid for his food and got the owners number and we were welcomed by the coffee cup after this ordeal. My husband called the owner and that conversation didn't go well at all. I could hear her yelling at him and cursing and just being very nasty about the whole situation. She stated she doesn't care about customer allergies and I could hear her yelling she doesn't care because it's not her problem and calling my husband a liar over and over again like a little child. My husband kept trying to asked her so if a customer asks for a steak well done and it comes put rare a customer has no rights to send the dish back? She kept yelling at him repeatedly and then told him that no customers don't have rights to send anything back. But my thing is why does she have to act like such a child. I could hear her constantly yelling at him and not allowing him to speak and he kept his composure very well when many would have lost it. I also heard her say because the rising cost of food she raises her prices and cut down what you get on the portion. That's fine but if it hardly comes with avocado for almost $15 you should probably not call it avocado toast. She told him to fuck off and hung up on him after all the yelling that she felt compelled to do. Also if a customer asks for something maybe not insult them and belittle the repeat paying customer. Just avoid this location and go to the coffee cup where they treat their customers with respect and are happy to accommodate if something is wrong with your food because clearly this owner only cares about the bottom line and how much she can make offer customers. Someone is gonna get really sick one day and she will be sued and hopefully she will have to close down and lose her business. But so yeah now she does have to deal with my lawyer and BBB because I felt very discriminated against and now not accommodating on food allergies is very negligent. Just avoid them and go somewhere that has quality food and service and avoid places like this that are anti-American.

Service was very good, however everything on the breakfast plate was overcooked, hash browns were burned, ham was very hard to cut, bacon was extremely overcooked, very dry and brittle, avocado toast was just ok, ordered without egg and was charged the same price, which I thought was overpriced.

The other popular diner down the street was too busy and had a long wait so we came here. This restaurant was busy too but we were lucky and got seated immediately inside. The interior was decorated with a Xmas tree and near the restroom there was a fireman's display. The waitress came by with our iced water and we ordered a veggie omelet, potatoes, sourdough bread, and a side of pancakes. Just as a warning the plates are big and so are the pancakes this was more than enough food for the both of us. The service was great, the food came out fast, and it was delicious. We left very happy.

I wanted to drop a quick note to let you know how blown away we were by Southwest Diner in Boulder City. The Pork Chili Verde omelette was probably the best omelette we have ever eaten! The potatoes were like you would make at home and that banana bread is soooo moist and delicious! What a great option instead of toast! Brianna provided exceptional service--so easy to talk to and we selected that omelette based on her recommendation. Then we sampled the cucumber salt scrub at the sink in the restroom. Wow, had to buy that on the way out. Love the décor too, so quaint and cozy. We can't wait to come back and plan on making Southwest Diner a stop to and from Vegas!!!

My family and I just stop by the southwest diner, after we went out to take pictures of the Hoover Dam earlier today. Also, I recently got the salmon salad with honey mustard, strawberry lemonade, and the side of the Texas toast bread. The pit stop is great for breakfast and lunch as well as all day long. Anyway, it's good to honor the police officers and firefighters who served in Las Vegas for a long time.

Came for breakfast but ended up eating one of the best chili Verde burritos ever! Food is quality and filling! Coffee is great! Staff is so sweet and fun. Lots of seating. They sell fresh made pies to go as well as killer hot sauces! We had to grab a bottle of the red one to go it was that good.
