About this restaurant

  • Great for brunch
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
Fun fact—there’s no Winnie or Ethel here! This charming diner is the brainchild of life and business partners Aaron Lee and Mal Gott. After winning The Great Las Vegas Coffee Shop Giveaway in 2023 (like a local Shark Tank for foodies!), the duo brought their shared vision to life in the heart of Las Vegas.

At Winnie & Ethel’s, every dish tells a story. Our food is crafted from scratch by award-winning chef Aaron Lee, honored in the Las Vegas Weekly 40 Under 40. Whether you’re digging into our fan-favorite Diner Breakfast, savoring the tender flavors of our Pot Roast French Dip, or indulging in Malted Pancakes or Waffles, every bite is made with love and a nod to classic diner nostalgia.

And what’s a diner without bottomless coffee? Ours is locally roasted by Mothership Roasters, ensuring every cup is rich, flavorful, and fuels those priceless conversations.

Join us at Winnie & Ethel’s—a place where a meal isn’t just food on a plate, but an open invitation to feel at home.

    The bright light that they had greeting us at the door was just a delight! I hate that I can't remember her name , but she is a charmer and set the tone for what would be a wonderful breakfast. I had the Pork Belly sandwich and it was filling and fresh. The background music was some toe-tapping oldies but goodies. I recommend this spot to everybody!

    The best bacon I’ve had in Vegas they have the crispy factor perfect. Also, their chorizo gravy for their biscuits was a cool spin on a traditional dish.
    Winnie & Ethel's Downtown DinerResponded 2 days ago
    We’re so glad you enjoyed the bacon and the chorizo gravy! It’s always great to hear when a dish hits the mark, especially with a little twist on a classic. Thanks for sharing your experience, and we can’t wait to have you back for more!

    They seemed extremely overwhelmed and underprepared for how busy it was on a Tuesday.

    3rd time eating here and everything was great! Got there around 1:30pm. Food was delicious! Service was excellent! The pot roast French dip was on point! Although they ran out of biscuits and steak, the rest of the food we ordered was delicious!

    I love everything about this restaurant! From the jump, it’s special. Great host at the front, cutest ambiance, great menu with unique takes on diner food and they deliver the taste! Pancakes are five stars. Would cake again! Pot roast French dip sandwich is *chef’s kiss. You can always tell when a place is owner operated!
