Soul Foo Young

I cant wait for them to reopen. Ms G always had bomb food cooking here. Never once have I ever had a dish I didnt like. The hotwater cornbread was fire. I would come across town just to eat. She always is in an upbeat mood, lively and treating her clientele like family.

I hope that they eventually can move out of the bar and into a nicer place. I had my Seahawks jersey on and got the death stare from a few sallow-​looking bar patrons and a tired bartender. Is double diamond a 49er’s bar?
Anyway, the food took a little while to come out, but it was fantastic. Everything was just as good as you hope southern classics should be. Fried chicken was well seasoned, nicely crisp skin, juicy. Mac and cheese was RFG (really fantastically good). Collard greens were perfect. Yams were awesome. I would have preferred regular cornbread to the fried corn egg roll thing, but my kids all ate it just fine.
Drawbacks would be that I wouldn’t want to eat in that place-​do takeout, and the bar does seem a little depressing to me.

I was away from my typical neighborhood stomping grounds when I suddenly had a craving for fried chicken. I found this spot, Soul Foo Young and just had to try it — Chinese food and Southern food — together!
I walked into the bar, went to the order window and dinged the bell. Georgia came to the window and started up on telling me all about the food she was serving that day, she is so nice and clearly cooks with southern love. I went for the Bruce Leroy special — which is from the movie «The Last Dragon» from the 80’s. I used to watch that movie all the time! The Bruce Leroy consists of 3 southern style fried chicken wings with Chinese fried rice.
The food is cooked to order — and good fried chicken takes at least 15 minutes. So it is fresh, it just takes a little while. When it did finally come out, it was soo tasty. The Chinese fried rice really goes well with southern fried chicken which was crunchy and well seasoned. Her fried chicken took me back to the time I visited Jackson, Mississippi. So yummy. Next time I would like to try her chicken smothered in gravy, egg foo young, and collard greens — since I have to get my veggies in somehow.
One of the things about this spot is that it inside the Double Diamond Bar and because it is a bar, next time I would definitely order ahead for take out — unfortunately eating at the smoky bar can take away from the yummy food Georgia is serving up.
Call ahead, ask Georgia for recommendations, and order for take out!

Can’t say enough about this place. It’s so hard to find whole, fried chicken wings in the valley so I looked to Unilocal for help and I’m glad I did! I read all of the reviews Saturday night and couldn’t wait for Sunday afternoon.
Soooo worth the wait. The Bruce Leroy (that’s hilarious) was excellent. And the peach cobbler. … forget about it!
I could do without the smokey atmosphere. But hey, it’s a hole in the wall.
Every time I get the urge for fried chicken, you all will know where to find me!

Super dive bar with a little walk up counter to order food at. However some damn good fried chicken, the biggest damn thigh I have ever seen. Great sweet tea way better than their kool aid like drink. Egg foo young was descent. I don’t even like gravy not eggs yet it was cool. Try it if in the area.

The best fried chicken I have eaten in Las Vegas. Order from a window inside a little bar with few seats. But. It is worth the effort.

This place is tucked inside a small neighborhood bar that you wouldnt find if u weren’t looking. Georgia is the sweetest and knows what she’s doing in that kitchen. I ordered the fried rice with 3 chicken wings (Bruce Leroy). It was very fresh and flavorful. The chicken had a really good flavor and fried to perfection. She gave me a sample of the mac and cheese and I was sold… One side of that please. I also had a side of collard greens that came with a piece of hot water cornbread that looked like an egg roll. The greens were not cooked with any meat so they weren’t as flavorful as I would’ve thought but with an added pinch of salt and eating them along with the cornbread, they were quite tasty too. I wanted to try the peach cobbler but it wasn’t ready. I was there again the same week and will be back probably before the weekend is up. This is my husband’s new lil fave too.

Really good food that is full of flavor and Georgia is super sweet and funny! The wait is a lil long but sooooo worth it! Food is made to order so she makes it the moment you order it! This dive is a awesome!

I came to Las Vegas and wanted some soul food and man I found the best soul food west of the Mississippi… only my Mommy’s food was better… but; yes I will return 4sho!

This is a little place located inside a sports bar, but don’t let the humble location fool you: small place, big flavor! My advice: eat here as much as you can before the word gets out and the lines start snaking out the door. Fried fish was perfect. The sides were crazy good (the mac n’ cheese is the best ever). Collard greens that put Roscoe’s Chicken N Waffles to shame. Authentic Southern cooking without the greasiness and with ALL the flavor but with the interesting twist of a small Chinese menu as well: we’re former Chicagoans and we know excellent egg foo yung when we have it! The service is friendly and sweet as the yams.

Our first time and boy I just wished this place was not in a bar. Its located in the Double Diamond bar and the smell of smoke was over whelming. We walked to the end of the bar youll find a little hallway with the sign above the door Soul Foo Young order at the window. Ms. Georgia came to the window and told us about her menu and that she makes everything fresh so the wait is a little long. Kids are aloud but i would not bring mine here to smoky even for me. The food is good my daughter and husband really enjoyed the skinny burger i tried it and i to liked it. We will be coming back but next time ill call ahead so i dont have to wait in the smoky bar.

Las Vegas has lacked authentic soul food for years… So happy I was able to get the best of both of my favorites! Love the soul food — mac n cheese, greens but Love Love the egg foo young! Oh and the house special the Bruce Leroy — shrimp fried rice and chicken wings. Im there every time i visit.

Big ups to Mama Georgia the best Chinese food in Las Vegas. The portions are great the food is good and seasoned just right. The soul food is «Just Like My Grannie’s».Mama Georgia’s cooking gives me comfort when I miss home… Chi-​Town. Mama Georgia and Artisha much LOVE… Trivia
