Market Street Café

Located in the heart of downtown Las Vegas, Market Street Café is a beloved 24-hour Hawaiian-inspired diner that has been serving up island-style comfort food since 1975. This charming spot perfectly captures the spirit of "the Ninth Island," blending traditional Hawaiian flavors with classic American diner fare to create a truly unique and satisfying dining experience.

The menu at Market Street Café is a delightful journey through bold and comforting tastes. Highlights include the legendary Oxtail Soup, a rich, savory broth brimming with braised oxtail that falls effortlessly off the bone, accompanied by garden vegetables, straw mushrooms, and fragrant cilantro. This dish alone has earned an almost cult-like following, with guests like Isabel Echevarria praising its deep, flavorful broth and tender meat that truly lives up to the hype. The oxtail soup is best experienced during its special serving hours late at night, perfect for night owls craving something warm and nourishing.

Beyond the oxtail, Market Street Café serves an array of mouthwatering dishes that showcase the diverse flavors of Hawaiian cuisine. The Loco Moco, a hearty plate featuring a juicy hamburger patty topped with a fried egg and smothered in savory gravy, offers a comforting burst of flavor. Their Cal Prime Rib is celebrated as the juiciest prime rib in town, boasting tender, succulent meat that's perfect for a satisfying dinner. Breakfast items like the Filipino Breakfast, Portuguese Sausage and Eggs, and the Old Fashion Hot Cakes bring a sweet and savory fusion to start the day right, enjoyed by patrons such as Timothy Vaught who appreciates the 24-hour availability for those odd-hour cravings.

Omelet lovers will find plenty to enjoy with options like the Western Omelet, packed with ham, bell peppers, mushrooms, and onions, or the hearty Chili & Cheese Omelet, featuring Zippy’s award-winning chili topped with cheddar cheese. For a lighter bite, the house salad adds a fresh balance to the richly flavored offerings.

Market Street Café’s ambiance is a warm, unpretentious reflection of its local Hawaiian roots and friendly staff. The atmosphere feels welcoming and familiar, making it a favorite among locals and visitors alike — a place where comfort food meets genuine hospitality. As Mia Gonzales notes, the service from attentive team members like Cassandra and Viola only adds to the positive experience, creating a community vibe in this bustling downtown spot.
