Welcome to Northside Cafe and Chinese Kitchen! It’s a Chinese restaurant by night, but early mornings, it’s an American style cafe/diner with tasty breakfast options. We stopped in on a couple of occasions and had good food and decent service....at Vegas prices of course. (Breakfast is served all day, e’ry day!) They have a $25 breakfast buffet, but we chose to order from the menu on each visit. The Chilaquiles Verdes is $16 and includes two fried eggs (cooked to your style), tortillas, chorizo, cotija cheese and pico de gallo. It’s a very large and filling portion, but a little different than the chilaquiles style I’m used to. Instead of tortilla strips, it was served on tortilla CHIPS. Nothing wrong with that, just a bit different and more difficult to eat with a knife and fork. It was kind of like trying to eat nachos with a knife and fork. There was too much chorizo in it for me, so it made it pretty salty. Also, not enough of the verde hot sauce, or pico de gallo, and I wish it was made a little spicier than it was. The Two Egg Breakfast ($16) is typical breakfast diner food. Includes two eggs cooked as you like, with choice of bacon, pork, or chicken sausage. Also includes hashbrowns and toast. No complaints with this order. Grilled Cheese & Roasted Tomato Soup ($13) - the grilled cheese sandwich was of ordinary size, but included siwss, cheddar, and provolone cheese on grilled sourdough bread. I’m not usually a fan of tomato soup, but hey, my receipt shows that it was around 4:30am, so maybe my judgement was clouded, LOL. Regardless of my hazy state, I was happy with what I can remember about my meal. The tomato soup was very rich and creamy. The Breakfast Burrito ($15) was a very decent size and was loaded down a smorgasbord of offerings. It was stuffed with scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese, green chiles, sour cream, TASTY guacamole, salsa verde, and pico de gallo. As far as quantity goes, this is probably the best bang for the buck at this joint. They have awesome orange juice and raspberry mimosas too. The restaurant is very cold, so bring a blanket or a jacket!

Husband and I came to Las Vegas for our anniversary and stayed for a week at Sahara. So naturally we ate at the Northside Cafe almost once a day since it was just downstairs. Everything was phenomenal - wings, Belgian waffle, grilled cheese, northside burger, French toast, nachos, Bloody Mary. Everything. Service was awesome. They were always quick but friendly.
