Joy’s Restaurant

Price for this location is $ 7.50 not bad for a Filipino Buffet the taste of the food is EHH-​OKAY! it would have been better if the food is a warm since the food that they are serving is COLD!

I wish I could recommend, but I didn’t get a chance to try the food. I drove out there and they were closed. We’re talking 7:30pm on a Friday.

The food is fresh and tasty, it’s a little further than the usual place I go to, but definitely worth the drive. The service is friendly. They had all my favorite foods, even fried chicken skin and lumpia! Yummy! Even dessert was so good

They always serve cold food. Their food warmer is no good. Who wants to eat cold filipino food? No one.

The best Filipino Buffet in Vegas! We always bring our out of town guests to Joy’s and all of them have nothing but compliments on how good the food is. One went to 4 buffets on the strip and said Joy’s is the best. Another is a caterer from California and said she has to admit that Joy’s food is really good. Keep up the good work and the very reasonable pricing.

Everything is flavorful and very reasonable .
You cannot get wrong for $ 6.99 buffet for all day
We will be back…

Thank goodness that they delivered. It took a while and the food was cold. I was so diappointed that crispy pata. lechon kawali wasn’t on the take out menu. I hope they don’t forget the utensils and condiments next time. Other then that… the food was ok. Adobo could have a little more pork fat and less bay leaves and chunks of garlic in it.

I ordered again this time even more better then the last time. I would like to apologize I didn’t have a tip as this was a last minute thought to order, no change on me, but next time I will surly have tip money.

Delivery took a little while but we are happy that they offer delivery. Food prices are affordable and good. My baby loves sinigang and she ate a lot.
Thanks!

On our stay in Las Vegas, we visited this place on the first full day that we were there. We found the buffet well stocked with the best of Filipino cuisine. Taste and quality are good but honestly, the buffet next door called Pinoy Resto Buffet was just a tad better in terms of quality and taste even if the restaurant itself doesn’t compare to Joy’s. We’ll still go back here when we get the chance.

Great Filipino food & awesome service. Lechon is always on point. Chicken skin chicharon is great. Pusit dinuguan is one of my favorites & they do it just right! Authentic Filipino food! Did I mention, it’s all-​you-​can-​eat!!!

I really enjoy the food and the excellent service, thank u Felix and chong
I always appreciate everything and the fact that u deliver

I ordered teriyaki chicken and it came to me ice cold. I called to complain and the guy pretty much called me a liar. I told him I have no reason to lie sir. He said it was made today so there is no way it can be cold. I told the guy either you make me new chicken and he called me back and said it would be an hour and the refund would be an hour as well. I told him never mind. I don’t recommend this place

I walked in to this Restaurant/​Buffet with my dad. It was one of the strangest customer experiences I’ve ever had. It wasn’t bad but it was definitely strange.
When we walked in we were greeted by a family sitting down at a table. They were all eating and we thought they were customers. But then they told us that we pay after we finish eating and that the plates and food were against the wall. They were nice but not very professional. We didn’t see a fountain machine so we asked if there were any drinks and they pointed to a fridge and told us to take what we wanted. We didn’t have any ice or cups so they brought us out cups, ice (in a bowl) and bendy straws and then sat down to finish eating. Once we finished a lady got up from the table and walked to the register so we could pay. It was very inexpensive and we were trouble bringing out change so she just took the $ 20 bill we gave her even the the bill was $ 22 dollars. It was nice but weird and a bit unprofessional but not in a bad way.
The food itself was was good. They didn’t have any signs up for what the food was so I didn’t know what I was eating. But I had some rice with some sort of meat and veggies. It tasted good but not spectacular. They had soups and meats and rice and not much else. The food selection was very scarce. It was literally one bar with different foods. I did go up for a second helping because it did taste good but I didn’t know what I was eating. My father and his friend didn’t much enjoy the food but they don’t like Asian food much anyways.
Overall, i would have to say it was a strange experience. I don’t know if I would come back (a little to laid back for my liking) but if you don’t mind the good but unprofessional guest service I would recommend it. It was inexpensive and was alright.

We visiting from Los angeles and stumbled this philipino rest from Unilocal.Turns out to be SO delicious! And so cheap too $ 6.99 buffet and really good filipino food. The lechon is so soft crunchy yummy. The salmon soup so delicious and fresh. Thank you way to go. The people are very nice as well

Not happy with what we ordered. Ordered the lechon and it was skinny and dry… We wasted money.

Masarap!
I never heard about Joy’s Filipino Restaurant & Buffet until another place near my work (Manila’s Best) closed, which left me looking for another place nearby. Glad we found her!
Located close to Charleston and Maryland, in what some would call an ‘unsavory’ part of town, Joy’s is down home Filipino cooking you would find in your Nanay or Tatay’s house. Dang authentic! If you like pork, and you like things in soup, and if you like bowls of white rice, you won’t have any issue’s at Joy’s! Sure you could order items ala carte, but make it easy and just go for the buffet! Eat all of it!
We wandered into Joy’s around the start of lunch. Joy’s is open for long hours, like 6:00 AM to almost midnight from what I’ve read depending on the day. So since we got there in the brunching hour, some breakfast items were available with lunch! I got to feast on some morning goodies — basically my favorite Filipino breakfast of hot rice, sweet longanisa, and scrambled eggs with tomato & onion! So yummy!
But I didn’t forget to have some lunch too! More hot rice, with pancit, tarong (eggplant), lechon kawali, and a bowl of chicken papaya soup! There were so many other things available that day like kare kare, guisadong pusit (sautéed squid), dinuguan (pork with pork blood, aka ‘chocolate meat’), fried chicken, sinigang and much more! I was just too full to try everything.
But quality of the food was there, fresh tasting, and close to what I’m used to eating when I was a kid. Foods were kept hot, most things weren’t sitting too long (some of the breakfast items were because they weren’t going to be refilled since it was lunch), and the buffet line was kept very clean.
OK, food is good but don’t judge it based on environment. Joy’s buffet looks DATED. Like the way my grandpa & grandpa decorated their house back in the 80’s. A similar green paint was used on their walls too! It does look a bit unkempt and rickety when you look around the restaurant. And… the bathroom is no real joy either. Then again, the restaurant is housed in a strip mall that seems old anyway. But it does vaguely resemble pics of my relatives houses back in the Philippines! Don’t focus on this and just go for the food. Eat and be merry!
Food was well priced to boot. All-​you-​can-​eat buffet was only $ 6.99 per person! Cheapie! But I can’t remember if it’s cash only or if you can use a credit/​debit card.
Oh, one more tip. If you’re rich and look rich, drive a luxury car, and resemble anything of a hipster… do not wander into this area where Joy’s is too late into the night! Dress down please! No need to gather yourself unwanted attention because the lighting around there is very suspect. I’m not gonna judge the homeless that hang around there (the one I offered food to was gracious), but just be aware of your surroundings. Late night robberies can’t be fun!
AGAIN…masarap!

The food is excellent.. they keep the food trays fresh and full. The Filipino style food cooking is very good here — A+ to the cook. The place is kept orderly and clesn. They serve all foods from 6am to midnight — I recommend and will be back when in Vegas

The food looked good… if only they would have served me. I wasn’t even acknowledged AT ALL.
Walked in on a Sunday night. The lady behind the counter was already helping someone else so I waited until she was done, then she walked back into the kitchen. Two other fellas came in and someone else in the dining room told the lady she had customers. She proceeded to help them and ignored me, despite the fact that I had already been patiently waiting there. They wanted the last of the sisig, which was what I wanted. I asked her if they had anymore sisig left and she didnt even respond. Walked out with a bad taste in my mouth and a lost appetite.

Joy’s is our go to for Filipino food when we’re here in LV. I love the authentic taste and the affordable price. The buffet line allows you to try different dishes and come back for more… no regrets! It is a small place, but it’s a Pinoy sit down and eat and move on type of place. You come here for food, and great food you get!
