Gritz Cafe – Las Vegas, Nevada

The fried catfish at the Gritz Cafe is so good I’d walk through fire for it…but only if owner Trina Jiles is on hand to put out the flames. At age 22, Trina became the very first black female firefighter in Clark County and the second in the state of Nevada. Not one to stand pat while breaking barriers, Trina also became the county’s first Black female arson investigator. When she retired from putting out fires, she decided the only flames she wanted to play with were those from her kitchen. After 21 years of public service, she retired in 2017 to focus full-time on Gritz Cafe, the Southern-style eatery she founded in 2008 in the Historic Westside.
