Nipsey's Restaurant & Lounge

I don't recommend this place. Closed on Taco Tuesday & wasted my time. I do highly recommend this business to correct the Open/Closed Hours on Google instead of Instagram!

I went on a Thursday around 6pm, it wasn't crowded but I appreciated the sign on the desk saying, "the whole world is short staffed please be patient with us." I had the fried catfish dinner which was very good, but I was disappointed and surprised it only came with one fillet. Gene's Greens were delicious!! They don't call them that but they should. Chef Gene said he uses his grandmother's recipe, this should definitely be a staple on the menu! I'll definitely be back.

I go for the brunch and bottomless mimosas..definitely a nice Sunday vibe w/ all of the tv's turned to whatever sports game is on. While the music is setting the tone. Food is decent, wait staff is pleasant, bar staff are cool.

Wonderful experience at a fairly new restaurant and lounge modeled after a fictional bar on the Martin Lawrence Show. Beautiful atmosphere on the inside. One side is a lounge area and the other is dine in eating. Its not a large eating area, so you must make reservations. I went here for my birthday this year and really enjoyed it...especially the food, the service and my drink (Damn Gina!) Our table was really impressed with the pizza..the ones pictured below were really affordable and tasty. I had the lamb (not pictured) and it was seasoned just right. The service was thoughtful and attentive. They had a DJ that night that was awesome as well.

Music was good the drinks cost too much only because the cups was cups you get from the liquor store they were throw away cups I understand abo covid but other places use nice glasses

Food is awesome ???!!! This place is listed as a lounge, but it actually turns into a "club" after hours. I'm not a fan of bringing this age group of people into my community!!! We've fought hard to have one of best African American (mostly) communities on south side of Chicago. If it really was a lounge, it possibly could be a nice place to go to socialize. We've had one lounge in this community (down the street) & it's been a nice peaceful place for over 40 yrs or more.

Great food!! The handsome guy with the beard best bartender ever!! Drinks on point, comfortable atmosphere. We just went to watch the game.

The vibe at night was everything. However, when you order bottle service for the minimum of $250 you only get one chaser. So if you want water that's your chaser you get no juice. Most places bring two juices and water if you ask. If you want water it's $5 for the kids size bottle of water. Loved the bottle girl show when she brought out the bottle. The food was pretty good loaded fries and wings. Once we ordered the bottle girls pretty much disappeared for the night to other places. Not one time coming back to ask did we need anything else. Cause we sure would've cause we were hungry and thirsty again because we ordered that kinda early in the night. Overall great spot. Will be back. I hope they offer juice and water with the bottle service next time.

Thought it was a nice place?? Made reservation for 6 gave me a table for 4 wasn't a where that Sunday was buffet day at 44.00 a person with very limited choice fish ( to salty) greens (spicy with stems) macaroni and cheese over cooked pasta. Breakfast well its 3pm.? I like the environment but would have love to mess this day at nipseys. It was my birthday but had a good time with my family and friends

I’ve been to this lounge multiple times and I’ve enjoyed myself every time. Free to enter, drinks are a little pricey but, they’re made strong so it’s worth money.Music is great on Saturdays, it’s nice place with great staff and bartenders.

Great for brunch early dinner date and if you are into the party scene. After 10 pm that is when they turn up. To much for me but if you want to party that is your place. Oh and the food was delicious had fried catfish, Mac n cheese, collard greens and cornbread. I would definitely recommend this place.

The food was good but not enough for the price. They also charge an additional service charge of 25% for your bill if you are dining in that does not go to your server. My bill went from $50 to 60 due to the service charge that they do not tell you about until your bill come. And then you still want to add a tip too. I just paid for a longhorn steakhouse meal. My server was great even though it was her first day. I still tipped her because she tried to make our dinner enjoyable.

The wings are some of the best that I have had anywhere. The food overall is very good. The drinks were overpriced for the area but nevertheless creative. My only real negative is the lack of a dress code starting with the staff. It’s like they can wear whatever as long as it is black and I mean whatever.I have been twice now and would recommend this place to anyone that enjoys good food and some old school music.

Food was ok but this place is very overpriced spent about 30 dollars on a lamb chop dinner lamb chops was so small barley any meat on them a scoop of mashed potatoes that looked as if they was spreaded out cat fish dinner one piece which was very small for 16 dollars drinks was overpriced food didn’t have much seasoning waited a whole hour before getting my food my waitress was very nice but I don’t think I will be returning to this restaurant to overpriced food portions a to small was not worth the money at all

Went to check out Nipsey's Sunday And We Must Say The Food Was Fantabulous!! Staff was nice & friendly. The atmosphere was great with two bars, if needed. Definitely made reservations already to return. Compliments to the Chief Chef Eugene & tell the staff Be continue to be GREAT!!!
