Breakfast in Las Vegas usually involves expensive hotel buffets or long waits at trendy spots. Blueberry Hill Family Restaurant on Flamingo Road offers a third option: classic, scratch-made comfort food just two miles off the Strip.

This family-owned diner has been a local staple since 1987. While they have four locations in the valley, this spot on Flamingo is the most convenient if you are staying near the casinos. Best of all, this location is open 24 hours a day. They serve lunch and dinner, but the real reason to come here is the massive breakfast menu.

Arrival

After a late night in Las Vegas, I slept in and woke up craving an early afternoon brunch. Since it was Sunday morning, I knew I wasn’t the only person with this idea.

When I pulled up, I saw at least 20 people waiting outside. The host told me it would be an hour and handed me a buzzer. At that point, I was too hungry and defeated to drive anywhere else, so I decided to stick it out. I just hoped the food would be worth the wait.

Interior

The dining area was split into two main rooms, one on each side of the entrance. The layout felt efficient, almost like a fast-food joint, with booths packed in tight to fit as many people as possible.

The décor was definitely stuck in the 1980s. It had standard vinyl booths, tile floors, and plain white walls. It wasn’t trendy, but the large windows let in a ton of sunlight. After spending time in dark casinos, the natural light actually felt good.

While the design was dated, the place was incredibly clean. I watched the staff constantly wiping down tables and sweeping floors the second a group left. It might not have been fancy like Mon Ami Gabi on the Strip, but it was spotless and comfortable.

Menu

The menu here was massive. When the server handed it to me, it felt more like a book than a menu. I counted six laminated pages packed with everything you could imagine.

It covered everything from crepes and waffles to a “South of the Border” section. They even had full dinner plates available at breakfast time. It was almost too many choices.

However, what stood out to me was the “scratch-made” claim. The menu actually had a note saying they don’t use pre-made mixes for their pancakes, which is a shortcut most diners take. That extra effort is rare for a place this size, so I knew I had to try it out.

I usually try to post photos of the menu, but with six pages, it was just too big to capture. You can check out the full menu on their website if you want to see the prices.

After looking over the menu, I settled on the Irish Eggs Benedict. This version of eggs benedict came with two English muffins topped with grilled corned beef hash, sautéed tomatoes, two poached eggs, and hollandaise sauce. For the side, I chose the hashbrowns over the chunky potatoes.

The poached eggs were cooked perfectly. When I cut through each one, there was an explosion of rich, golden yolk. It mixed with the buttery, thick hollandaise sauce, which was noticeably thicker than the watery sauce you get at some diners.

The grilled corned beef hash was the highlight. A lot of places use canned corned beef that is wet and flavorless, but this tasted homemade.

The meat was tender, salty, and had a distinct smoky flavor from the grill. It was mixed with small pieces of diced potatoes and sweet sautéed tomatoes, which added a nice texture.

Even the English muffins held up. They were toasted on both sides, so they stayed crispy on the outside and didn’t fall apart under the weight of the meat and sauce.

For the side, the hashbrowns were simple but solid. They were shredded fresh and cooked until golden brown on the outside while remaining tender inside.

I enjoyed the texture mix between the crispy bits and the softer potatoes. For an extra kick of flavor, ask for hot sauce. They had both Cholula and Tapatio available.

Service

With the restaurant that busy, I expected the service to be slow. I was wrong. My server was this sweet lady who was flying around the dining room. I honestly couldn’t believe how fast she was moving from table to table.

Despite the chaos, she still checked on me constantly to refill my drinks. The rest of the staff was just as fast. I watched them clearing and cleaning tables the second people stood up, which is probably the only reason the line outside kept moving.

When the check came, I noticed they charge a 2.5% fee if you pay with a credit card. I paid cash to avoid the fee. Also, even when I asked for a receipt, I never received one.

Conclusion

Blueberry Hill Family Restaurant is exactly what it claims to be. It is a solid, family-friendly diner. It isn’t trying to be a trendy brunch spot with avocado toast and bottomless mimosas.

The value here is hard to beat. On the Strip, you would pay significantly more for a breakfast this substantial. While the décor is stuck in the past, the scratch-made food and the hustle of the staff make up for it.

I will definitely be back, but next time I plan to visit on a weekday to avoid that hour-long wait.
