| - When it comes to a delicious and filling breakfast, the Omelet House is a place to call home. The Omelet House has been home to delicious and filling breakfast for over thirty years. It is my understanding that this location is the second with the original being off Charleston. This location is off Boulder Highway where the road transitions from the Boulder Strip into the ribbon of concrete passing through southeast Henderson toward the Hoover Dam. It is a road that has taken me to the parkland abutting southeast Henderson. A couple of times on the way to these open spaces I'd stop at this Omelet House.
The Omelet House is a living legend. According to a Las Vegas Sun article, Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman declared September 12 Kevin Mills Day to in honor of the owner (http://m.reviewjournal.com/news/las-vegas/omelet-house-owner-honored-key-las-vegas). The crowds that line up to get into the restaurant honor the owner with a very popular breakfast and brunch restaurant. On my leading visit here, the wait was so long that I ended up sitting at the counter. Last time, I beat the crowds. The Omelet House is so popular that in recent times they built a location a few miles northwest at Boulder and Russell Road.
This is an interesting restaurant to check out the pictures and decorations. It just reminds me of a place you would see off Historic U.S. 66. I call this American Road Trip dining. This is a fitting environment since Boulder Highway is a Great American that connects Fremont Street to Hoover Dam and was the original US 93/95 before the freeway rerouted it. Proceeding this review is a couple of pictures of the nostalgic inside. Now I will talk about the inside of the menu.
The centerpiece of the menu is the massive offering of omelets. There are at least twenty choices of omelets with every kind of name and style. It was so difficult to make a decision. But where there is a problem there is a solution. The solution to the problem of choosing from the sundry of omelets was to order the western breakfast scrambler off the menu.
Both times that I had breakfast here, it was the western breakfast scrambler. I really admired the taste of ham, onions, mushrooms, cheese, and yummy ingredients surrounded by potato spuds. At the Omelet House, the majority of breakfast dishes feature the Potato spuds. They truly are delicious and in my opinion add to the quality of the breakfast. Good service ultimately adds to the quality of service.
The server was on top of my coffee refills. Good coffee by the way. On my last visit, the waitress had a good sense of humor at the expense of my clumsiness. We both got a laugh out of the fact that I unintentionally added the empty packets of Sweet N Low into my coffee and had managed to get ketchup on the green currency that I paid with. It is nice when the staff has a sense of humor especially when the food was good.
The Omelet House has the winning ingredients of a place to have breakfast: delicious food, good coffee, friendly service, an upbeat environment, and a location on the way to hiking trails. I would choose the Omelet House as a home for breakfast in the future.
