| - You can find Rise and Shizzle tucked in the Southwest corner of the Southern Highlands shopping center. Other nearby eateries is Barcelona Tapas and Off the Strip. R&S is just another addition to the ever expanding Highlands area.
You will notice the warm and friendly staff from the outset. Its hard not to see that they are struttin' around in their PJ's, no it ain't no Loberace show, but equally thrilling..j/k. I love theme based restaurants, Anime Ramen takes the cake though.
Anyhow, I got a kids meal steak and eggs while my patnah got the chicken fried steak. I wasn't starvin' Marvin, but needed to get something in my stomach, pronto. It was 10ish, so decided to keep it small. Its still a nice portion if you ask me.
The steak was done as requested, medium rare, with fresh made hash browns served on a hot skillet. I threw in a cup of French onion soup for good measure. The steak was not overly seasoned which I prefer to get that true steak flavor. The soup was piping hot and came in a stoneware cup. Its hard to find good FOS, and this place doesn't disappoint. Not the best I ever had like Drake kinda good, but not bad at all.
Most of the other dishes are pretty generous, unfortunately, the prices aren't. I would suggest sharing if you are not a breakfast gorger like most of us. The prep and way the food is served is legit though. I like how the menu is simply one page, but it can get difficult to find certain dishes.
The ambiance is nice and quiet and spacious as well. The inside is decorated like most new and clean breakfast joints are, yet, the twist, literally, is the ceiling fans are fitted with decorative umbrellas that accent the ceiling along with other festive colors. Looks like Steve Wynn designed it considering the loud colors...lol. A nice touch nonetheless.
To me, rise and shine is a hit and if you are in the neighborhood, or don't want to venture off to far if you live close by, like me, this place is as good as it gets. Break that fast at Rise and Shine!
