Dougie J’s Cafe

Nothing less than a perfect café. It was peaceful and welcoming environment. The service was great and very comforting and the menu selection was very broad! The food itself is nothing less than amazing. The coffee was perfect diner coffee. My friend and I both ordered a full sandwich, swapped halves and couldn’t even finish it because there was a lot of food — well worth the price and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend! (I got the nuthouse sandwich, TRY IT).

I love this place, the food is good, service is great and they are super nice. The place is small but not stuffy. The menu has a variety of items to choose from and everything i have tried has been good so far. Besides the polenta sandwich. I dont really like polenta though so my opinion might be biased towards it. They even have choices for the types of bread. Pretzel bun is good.
I like how they are located away from all the tourist attractions so it isnt full of drunk tourists. It is mostly packed with lawyers and business people

A small little breakfast/​lunch spot. Only open until 3pm. The service was friendly, the food was good but food took quite a while to come out, approximately 40 minutes. We had to go re-​feed the car meter outside because it took so long for our food to come out.
I got the make your own breakfast which was a lot of food for $ 13. I went with an omelet made with chorizo, spinach and American cheese. Very flavorful and very filling. The home fries were fresh, the turkey bacon was also cooked to perfection.
Overall the food was good just wish it didn’t take so long for the food. Especially since we were the only table there initially.

I was really looking forward to this place after seeing ⁴⁄₅ stars on Unilocal.We placed a delivery order and about an hour later (which, hey, that happens it’s lunch hour and busy) our order for three arrived in a ½ filled shopping size bag. At first I thought they had forgotten some items, but no, that was the whole order. We did ½ portions for The Dougie Sandwich, The B Salad, and The Sunni Southwest Salad.
The B Salad menu price was $ 8.00, though only a ½ portion you would expect a lot more to an $ 8.00 salad. They described the salads as «rubbery chicken» with that thin watery-​style ranch. I had The Dougie Sandwich, menu price *only* $ 8.00 (½ portion). This turned out to be just a few inches of basic roll with cold bland brisket, though the sweet potato chips were decent enough. Overall the consensus was this was very disappointing and overpriced.
Maybe they treat customers better in the café vs. delivery orders, or maybe it was a bad day? I don’t know, but this is my honest review of Dougie J’s Café. The delivery driver mentioned they had great American style decorations, guess I will never know since I wont be back.
I uploaded a few pictures, you can judge for yourself if these are worth $ 8.00 before tax, delivery fee, and tip (comes out to about $ 11.00 each then). At least it should have tasted good for the price…

How is this place still open?! They post no hours on their window? I tried stopping by and the sign said open and the doors were locked? Something this simple concerns me. If you can catch them when they are open that would be a good start! Guessing they are open when they want to be open.

First time here, it’s a small place that has parking in the alleyway where the big church is located behind it otherwise there is paid parking on the street.
I arrived around 1:30 and the place was pretty empty. The service was very good and everyone was very friendly. Emma did a great job keeping everyone satisfied checking on drinks and just sharing a smile.
The food is comfort food and prepared with attention to detail. The menu has a lot of items to choose from and seeing some of the dishes coming out of the kitchen makes you want to try everything you see, that is how much attention is being put forth. To sit there and be awed by the plates coming out, they are doing something right in the kitchen.
The décor is a tribute to the military and this great country. I like this place and this is a place I would recommend when in the area or just wanting a place to check out. Easy to get to and find, other customers here are friendly as well, something you don’t always find here in Vegas. Check it out sometime.

This place is great. My party ordered a mix and match of breakfast and lunch. I had an egg white omelette which was on right on point. One of my friends had a burger on a pretzel roll (which I later wish I ordered). It looked great and I stole some of his garlic fries which were fresh and tasty. My other friend got a salad w/​olives, orzo, and feta. I’m not sure what the name of it was, but she said it was really good.

We came here for breakfast one morning. It seems a bit chaotic despite us being the only people in the place. The oatmeal was the best thing we ordered, big and fresh. We also got the simple bacon and egg plate as well as the hash. Both seemed fresh but neither was super impressive.
Look for a groupon for here to perhaps save a few bucks.

Funky place with pleasant service and wholesome food. The Huevos Rancheros which we both had, were good but not prepared in the traditional manner. Overall, to be recommended.

Had to wait to write this review… so here it goes
The only reason I heard if this place was because of Groupon. Was it great… not so much at least on breakfast. It took waaaaaaaay toooooo looooong to be served… especially because we were the only ones there. The reason we went was for breakfast and just nothing special I found… so thought maybe if I order their sandwich for my dinner… again nothing special
Sorry…the service was good (besides the wait) and the décor was great dedicated to our service men and women. My advice put a boot to the cook with this great location put your foot on the peddle and SPEED UP!!!
and maybe rethink something better for breakfast those chorizo plate seemed too lazy

They open at 9am and we were seated. We ordered basic breakfasts of eggs and bacon…45 minutes later it arrived. Mediocre at best and with the wait, unacceptable.
A party of 7 walked in as we were still waiting, they engaged us and we told them about our experience and they walked out. My wife’s food was cold and undercooked… really, after 45 minutes you can’t cook an egg?
Again, we are the only people in the whole place and grandpa had to repeatedly ask for coffee.
Never again, however the décor was great with all the old military gear.

Day after thanksgiving. The food was very good. There were 4 of us and we all enjoyed our breakfast very much. My eggs were cooked to perfection (not everyone gets over medium eggs right) the bacon was really good, nice and crispy with great flavor. One son and I had French toast and a side of eggs. French toast was really good. Hubs had huevos rancheros and other son had sweet potato and chorizo with eggs. Both loved their food and cleaned their plates. Service was great. Very attentive! Even better we had a great Groupon.

One star because I got free cookies at the end of my meal. :) This place was overpriced and has super sub par quality food. Ham looks like it’s out of an Oscar Meyer box, I asked if I could have it hot/​toasted and they literally just put bread in a toaster then cold ham and cheese. :-P Meatball sandwich was dry and most likely frozen. No extra sauce and cheese barely melted. Will never be back.

Dougie’s has been one of my go-​to breakfast places downtown. Although I haven’t ventured around their menu too much, they have dishes that keep me coming back.
The holy grail dishes I constantly crave are their huveos rancheros and built your own breakfast option.
1) Huevos rancheros:
The dish comes smothered in green chili sauce, three eggs, pepper jack cheese and their salsa fresco is to die for. While presentation isn’t the prettiest, the rancheros will certainly get your taste buds a happy awakening.
2) Build your own breakfast:
You basically have limitless options here, from getting your eggs anyway you desire to making your meal into a sandwich, wrap, scramble or omelette. I’m set on constructing mine into a breakfast burrito. I suggest the same and please don’t forget to ask for the salsa fresco. You won’t regret it.
The vibe is always warm and welcoming. I almost always have Emma as a server. She is a delight!
So next time you’re feeling breakfast and don’t feel like waiting at your other downtown breakfast spots, check out Dougie’s. It makes me sad that it this place doesn’t get as much traffic as it deserves but I think it’s just because people have discovered it yet.

Dougie house salad– basically a Caesar but the chicken was perfect. Good seasoning
The dougie sandwich– pass
The crash– pass
Ricky tornado– delicious! They don’t put it on the menu but it is possible to get half of this. Spicy and fresh but not worth driving this far to get it.
Overall it was ok. Waitress gave us little to no attention unfortunately. She was the only server and had about 4 tables when we walked in at noon on a Saturday. We waited a good half hour to get 3 sandwiches, a Mac n cheese, and a salad. Currently waiting for our bill.

Love, love, love this new-​ish place in DTLV!
My friend and I popped over here for lunch as it is super close to our work. At 11:30ish in the AM on a weekday I was pleasantly surprised to see it wasn’t packed to the brim like a lot of other eateries downtown. The space, however, is on the small side, so if it were busy, you’d be in for a wait for a table!
Our server, who was very nice, and kept tabs on our table let us pick our seats. The place is decorated with military memorabilia and has the feeling of a small-​town eatery — just a place where the food is made with love for the locals.
I ordered «The Oz», which is on their sandwich menu. It’s a hoagie roll stuffed with wonderful meatballs, topped with melty cheese. There was just enough marinara sauce for this sandwich to easily be eaten by hand, while only a bit of the sauce leaked out while I was enjoying it. What my friend and I really appreciated was that you could order the sandwich in a smaller size (there are two options for all the sandwiches in the menu). I opted for the side salad with a side of ranch. It’s nothing spectacular, but I always appreciate a side choice other than french fries.
I will definitely be back here to try a few more items off the menu!

This place had great customer service! I went in during lunch time and wanted breakfast. They typically stop serving breakfast at that time, but let me order breakfast anyway.
Great Americana atmosphere and the food was delicious. I will be going there again.

A must try in downtown vegas. Suni and the rest of the staff so nice! Food is delicious.
Make sure you pay to park!

I attended the grand opening on dec 7, sampling various dishes, and ate here today for the first time. The food is unique, well thought out, and good sized portions. I tried the chorizo sweet potato hash and pancakes last time, and had planned on ordering the hash today… until I noticed something totally different. I can’t remember the name for some reason, but it’s listed in the sandwich section.
Peanut butter, bananas, and bacon (!) sandwiched between fried bread encrusted with frosted flakes. Sounds funky, but the blend of warm peanut butter and bacon – the salty – works great with the sweet corn flakes and bananas. It’s not a burger, or a sandwich, so you may have to be looking for this kind of combo, but I cleaned the plate!
I chose fruit salad (bananas, pineapple, apples) instead of fries. The only criticism I’d make is that due to the sandwich contents, I had banana overload, but the fruit was fresh, cut, and a good sized portion.

This is a great new addition to the downtown area! If you live in one of the surrounding high rises you should definitely take the short walk or bike ride and enjoy Dougie J’s!
I had a custom made breakfast omelette, courtesy of Brian. I asked him to make me what he likes and I most certainly wasn’t disappointed. The food came out quickly and was both hot and delicious.
It’s important to help out quality local business, especially one with such an honorable background. The owner’s son is a US Army veteran who was KIA while serving in Afghanistan. His name was Douglas J. Green. Since then she has worked tirelessly to help our service men and women, primarily through the Douglas J Green Memorial Foundation.
I’m glad I stopped in. Please come support these awesome patriotic entrepreneurs!
