Little City Grille

Excellent place for breakfast! I love these cozy little spots. The service and quality of food was second to none. I highly recommend this place if you visit the area. Love the friendly staff and nostalgic atmosphere and décor. I can go on and on. Thanks for the great service guys!

Great food! Great portions! Stopped on our way back to Arizona from Vegas. Thanks Unilocalers for the posts to help us find this gem.

Was very disappointed with this place. I had been wanting to try it out for months and well, I’m sad I did. We came for dinner, place looks run down and dirty. Only 1 waitress/​hostess who had an attitude and service was VERY slow… mind you, there were only 3 tables sat at, ours included. My chicken wrap was beyond bland and the fries were terribly undercooked, I would have asked her to send them back but I had earlier witnessed another customer send her burger back and I saw the disgust and frustration on her face, I didn’t want to deal with the attitude. Maybe they are better for breakfast, but I will stick to Southwest diner just down the block!

We stopped in to have lunch with our 5 kids for lunch after visiting Hoover Damn. This place was absolutely amazing! We love supporting local family owned business, well the Little City Grill is now at the top of our list. The server was the sweetest girl, very helpful with the menu, we had God conversation with her and that goes a long way in our book. Now for the food, with a family of 7 we were able to taste a good portion of the menu and let me tell you EVERYTHING was amazing! All of the food was homemade and absolutely delicious. We will definitely stop in and eat here again if we are in the area. Great service, amazing food and the own/​chef came out and chatted with us and shared the building history with us! How awesome is that?!

We had hamburgers for lunch at this restaurant. It seems like a family restaurant with some very unique decors. The burgers were very tasty and the fries are very fresh. The service was a bit slow but very friendly. Highly recommended!

From San Diego and first time here. Had the Red White and Blue burger and was incredible.

A must stop! Food was awesome, so good it was gone before we could take a picture. Burger and veggie a must.

Pros: nice atmosphere; Quick service;
Very clean and it had a steady flow of people walking in.
Cons:
–do not order fish and chips. The batter is thick without seasoning and only tasted like fried oil.
— They do NOT care for feedback and if you leave a plate untouched, no one will care to ask why.
— Burgers are ok, not the best as the patty lacks seasoning but they are presented well and if yours as enough extra stuff in it you might have a better experience than I did.
— expensive for the quality of what you get. i

This was an excellent place for a meal. My parents have lived in Boulder City for 8 years yet have never dined here until last night. We celebrated their 73^rd birthdays and we had a great time. You can get breakfast, lunch or dinner during the dinner hour.
We started with a glass of wine and beer and shared the sample appetizer of fried cheese, zucchini, pickles and mushrooms. All very good but the mushrooms out of this world. All hand breaded! Hubby had the chicken noodle soup instead of a salad. Wow. Reminded me of the great soup my grandma used to make.
Good service, albeit a bit slow. Friendly staff and great food!
For dinner we had the Reuben (highly recommend), chicken fried steak (good) and the chicken cordon blue (highly recommend). They use marbled eye for the Reuben and the meat, sauerkraut and sauce was in the correct ratio!
They brought us a piece of chocolate bundt cake to share for dessert. The owner/​chef came out during our meal to ask if we enjoyed it. He then played a small wind up gizmo that played happy birthday! It was accompanied by candles. Great way to end the evening!
My parents really enjoy their meal and said they will be back soon. We will as well on our next visit to Boulder City!

Little City Grille
A great place to stop on your way to the Hoover Dam.
Ambiance: Quaint. Reminds me of the great little restaurants in San Francisco.
Nice selection. The Crispy French Toast is excellent!!! I had the Big Daddy breakfast sandwich which was excellent as well. Hubby had an omelette.

The ambiance is vantage, with a local warmth. Mom and daughter make a great team –customer service in abundance. I had the LA wrap with sweet fries; delicious. This is definitely a place to visit on your travels.

3 & ½ STARS
Little City Grille is small on size but big on charm. It is a small mom & pop diner off Nevada Way where the road transitions from a strip of motels into the Boulder City Central Business District.
I had been to Little City Grille two times before hiking adventures near Boulder City. The first time was last Memorial Day and the second was the day before yesterday on Earth Day.
As soon as I stepped inside the diminutive mom & pop shop, it was a leap back in time. Throughout the room there are pictures and memorbelia of Boulder City and humorous sayings. The most memorable is a picture that says «Welcome friends» on the wall. Everywhere my eyes roamed I’d take in pictures of Boulder City. For the most part my eyes would roam on the menu and table. By the way, every table features pictures of Boulder City residents.
When I looked at the menu, I observed that the prices are not reflective of another era. The majority of the breakfast and lunch plates cost over $ 8. The cup of coffee was near $ 3. Breakfast Specials were nonexistent.
When I dined here on Memorial Day 2015, I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger with fries. I wasn’t crazy over both the burger and fries. Time passed by and I delayed writing this review. Fast forward to Earth Day 2016, and I returned here for a pre-​hiking breakfast.
On this weekday morning it is was far less busy than Memorial Day last year. This created a cozy breakfast setting. I was at ease walking around looking at the pictures. My waitress and possibly an owner was warm and would check up on me. As soon as I walked inside, Gina told me to sit anywhere. I passed over sitting at the counter where I could see them make the food. I passed over sitting on the patio overlooking Nevada Way. I walked a few feet to a comfortable booth surrounded by pictures, model cars, and memorbelia. One of the pictures was the password for the Internet. My attentive waitress would point out that they were all caps. I would point out that I wanted the BLT ($ 6.95). Gina would point out that they only had the breakfast potatoes instead of what normally comes with it. I was thinking to myself that the regular fries were nothing to write home about. However, the breakfast potatoes were something to write home about. They were outstanding! The delectable seasoning complimented the potatoes, onions, and peppers. Ultimately the breakfast potatoes complimented the BLT that I personally requested a lot of mayonnaise on. The nice thing about tiny restaurants is that when you realize that you realize you forgot to tell the waitress about adding a lot of mayonnaise, she is a few steps away.
The BLT with mayonnaise is more than comfort food. I also use it as a bellwether of quality. I was so much more impressed with their BLT than the mushroom Swiss burger. The sandwich was loaded with bacon, fresh tomatoes and mayonnaise then topped with mayonnaise. Good stuff!
The $ 3 bottomless coffee was also good. If I had drunk enough of it to the point of needing to visit the rest room, it would be necessary to leave the restaurant. The restroom is in back of the building.
Gina did not rush me. When I was finished eating the food she left me with the check and a Hershey Kiss. The Hershey Kiss next to the check was a cute touch that leaves a last impression that Little City Grille is a mom and pop restaurant small on size but big on charm.

Came into this small eatery because I was craving for a cheeseburger. The interior of this place had the 1960’s feel (black and white photos and memoirs of Elvis Presley’s time) with the rustic look or modern furniture. What was cool is that they also have antiques sitting on the window sill inside. This place feels like a relaxed moment in a café. Me and my partner was on the way to go to a beer fest in Boulder city and what better way to get some grub before alcohol.
The hostess quickly greeted us once we walked in and seated us next to the window. Then suddenly, a little girl in a dress catered is menus! So cute.
I ordered the Kiebalsa burger and it came with 100% ground beef, fried ham, cheese and mushrooms with your choice of (curly, crinkly, sweet potato fries) and a drink. It was amazing. The flavor a was all there and the bread was moist. If it’s not for their burgers I would come back for their great customer service as well!

Took a spontaneous trip to the Hoover Dam, since I’ve never seen it before. Was really hungry and decided to see what Unilocal can suggest to help my hunger LOL. And we decided on this cute little place on the side of the road. It was a beautiful day outside so we chose to sit outside. They do not have a lot of seating for outside maybe like 4 – 5 tables. The staff here is very friendly and the food was delicious. I would definitely come here during the weekend just to enjoy the weather and the food.

Cool little place, looks like an old Dairy Queen Bldg. Fun décor and friendly and efficient service. We came in for breakfast and I’ve found them to be pretty pricey. $ 2.85 for iced tea, $ 11.50 for 3 slices of French toast and $ 4.00 side of bacon is more like NYC pricing. It took a long time for the food to come out of the kitchen but everything looked very good and tasted very good. Overall I’d have to say the food and service were very good but I didn’t find it to be a good value.

We knew that we wanted to get something to eat before getting to Hoover Dam from Las Vegas. We just googled nearby restaurants when we got into town. Little City Grille had a high rating and we like trying new places that aren’t a restaurant chain.
We stopped in probably about 11am to have a late breakfast. We were greeted by very friendly staff. We were provided a menu and told of the specials for the day. We decided to order one of the specials — the Mexican Sunrise. We also ordered a full order of their World Famous French Toast. WE WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED IN ANY WAY!!! The food was delicious, from the hot flavorful coffee all the way to the homemade salsa (you must try it)!!! We continuously talked about how good the food was for the rest of our trip and strongly considered driving back there from Vegas the next morning for breakfast again.
If you’re ever in Boulder City, NV — don’t miss this place, you must stop in and try the food!!!

Touristy reviews. I may be a little critical cause I KNOW THE GOOD PLACES TO EAT. VEGAS BOULDER CITY AREA SINCE 1993. this is NOT one of them.
Not a 5 star nor a 4. Very typical dinner food. Heavy cream. Salt and grease. COMFORT FOOD YES! I was pleasantly surprised at the veggie burger. But 9 bucks? Please!
Owner was very dismissive when it was brought to his attention that the Philly wrap WAS NOT AS DESCRIBED on the menu. His exact words were «next time we’ll fix that for you» and walked away.

I cannot believe we wasted a meal at this place. Unilocal let us down! How can it possibly have 4 ½ stars when the food is so bad?
I ordered the fish and chips. Surely no-​one can screw that up? And yet they did. The batter was soggy and under-​cooked, the fries were barely cooked enough.
I asked the waitress to have my fish cooked again and I think the cook decided to teach me a lesson. If I can figure out how to add a photo I’ll post the one I took of the burnt fish.
I would never go back to this place and I cannot understand how so many people think it’s good. Hubby’s food wasn’t as bad as mine, hence 2 stars instead of just one.

After a long day at the Hoover Dam we stopped for lunch and I’m so glad we did !
Best little place to eat in Boulder City.
My bother and husband loved the freshness of the hamburger and the salad I had was amazing !

I absolutely LOVE this place! Any time we are in the area, this is the only place we eat. Their food is delicious, cooked fresh daily (soups and the like), and the server always have a smile to calm your spirits.
This place has a quiet and cozy feel to it and, since it’s run by a family, you definitely get a sense of mama’s home cookin’.
The experiences we’ve had here have always been a pleasure. My wife ordered their fresh soup to try it out and they brought two bowls and said, «This one’s on us!» so we could both enjoy it. The cheese sticks are to die for and their Philly cheese-​steak sandwich is amazing!
Stop on by and support a great local restaurant on your way to Hoover Dam!
