| - It's like breakfast for the RAT PACK crowd! And that ain't bad at all!
Omelet House here is ol' skool cool. Not to mention it's by the historic neighborhood of old Las Vegas, right near Alta where all the celebrities used to live back in the day! If these walls could talk! Just imagine the stories!
Located in an older strip mall just off of Charleston, Omelet House is ready to mix up a serving of nostalgia for you. I mean, the place just oozes the past! Kitschy items all throughout, down to the smell of days past! Thankfully, the food is great!
I work near here and never really been in the restaurant until my wife took me one day. She and her co-workers often frequent here for staff meetings or get-togethers. The food here? Some excellent, stick-to-your-ribs, no frills, no apologies...hearty EATS! If you leave Omelet House hungry that is your own fault. I'm a big dude and I didn't finish all my breakfast! Cold leftovers for later, lovin' it. Wifey and I ordered:
*Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs
*"The Sparticus" omelet - dubbed the Kirk Douglas special, has asparagus, mushrooms, cheddar cheese & special cheese sauce on the side
Each breakfast plate is served with Spuds (kinda like potato chips but thicker), and your choice of toast, English muffin, tortillas, Homemade Pumpkin Nut Bread or Banana Nut Bread. We chose one of each - Pumpkin Nut Bread and Banana Nut Bread.
Food didn't take too long to come from the kitchen, maybe about 20 minutes. Big portions! Food was warm, and more importantly - TASTY. Those dang spuds were delightfully addictive. Yummy with a splash of hot sauce and a dip of ketchup! Wifey's Chicken Fried Steak was cooked well and smothered with some delicious gravy! So so so rich. The Sparticus omelet was great too, full of fresh asparagus and mushrooms & lots of cheddar cheese. The side of special cheese sauce was totally unnecessary so I didn't much bother with it except to dip my spuds!
The Pumpkin Nut Bread and the Banana Nut Bread were good but on the dry side, my only other complaint was that they tasted somewhat similar. I love banana bread so I was hoping for more of a banana taste.
The coffee is good & strong and just kept coming. The service was excellent as well.
No complaints overall, unless you want me to count calories. Great breakfast spot!
