Wow!!! The best Carne Estrada I have ever had! Great service. Super ambiance and music and decor. I will be back anytime in Vegas. regardless of staying on the strip or off Fremont I will make it Alebrijes. ask for a side of mole with your chips. Boom. I wanted two stomachs. One was not enough. Nicely done Chef Paco!!!! read more

Someone wrote in a review that this was a "hidden gem" and I completely agree!! INCREDIBLE FOOD!! Beautiful decor -- all straight from Mexico Authentic, delicious and almost a week later we're all craving everything again ... especially the queso. It was the best queso we've ever had. And the Carne Asada. And you know that I judge a Mexican restaurant on their basics. If they can't get the basics right, then I have no hope for anything else. But OH MY WORD : they begin with complimentary chips drenched in mom's homemade mole & it was the best mole I've ever eaten. Guac - yes, salsa, delicious, beans and rice -- the best I've ever had and my step nana was Mexican & always made the most authentic refried beans. All the food we ordered was amazing -- check my pics for the deliciousness! Portions were big, so my husband and I shared and my dad and his girlfriend shared, and my 16yr old son was able to handle the meal on his own - lol. But get this -- head chef, Paco, himself-- SERVED US!!! It was like being at his home with all the special care and recommendations he made. He even made us special salsa! I guess he will surprise guests by taking one table every weekend & we were the lucky ones! We also celebrated 3 September birthdays and they made it super special. Their Bando brunch sounds incredible, so we'll be back for that. read more

Today is Sunday September 6 and they had an event. Online shows that they were going to have a banda and doors open at 11. We made reservations for 11 AM. Nowhere online or in person or even when talking to the receptionist did anybody say the band comes in after 12:30 or that the event has a $20 entry fee per person ! The server took 20 minutes to take our drink order and another 20 minutes to bring it. We had to flag him down to take our food order. It was not busy so it shouldn't have taken this long. We left by 12:30 without seeing the Banda so we asked if we could have our money back for the entry and the first thing the receptionist says is that she told us the Banda comes at 12:30 and sales are final. I tried explaining that we were not informed anywhere, but she was so rude! She has too much attitude to be working the front desk. Also, the event is 21 years and over and families were being turned away. Online didn't say that so families were making reservations with kids I wouldn't recommend for the shitty service and lack of upfront communication. read more

Located inside Neonopolis in downtown Las Vegas on the third floor. The place feels more like a open sports bar. It was very nicely decorated. The staff is super friendly. The place was very clean amazing views of downtown. Now on the food, they bought hot chips with more or mole sauce. Bold move they were fabulous. I got the order of Lopez. The cornmeal tortilla was fabulous fresh the meat was succulent, garnished with pickled onions another 5/5. The main dish is something special that's only made twice a year the Chilee Enogado. It literally stole the show. Super authentic. Must go again, not wild about having to go downtown to get it. Buts it's 100% worth it. read more

So glad we discovered this gem right before a performance at Notariety. BEAUTIFUL art and ambiance, bartender was great at suggesting the margarita I wanted when I said spicy. It was delicious. Unfortunately we only had time to have the yummy chips and salsa before the performance but I look forward to going back for dinner as soon as possible! read more

Best Authentic Mexican Food I've had in a long time! I had the chicken Tostadsa and my friend had the Fish Tacos! Thank you!! read more

Alebrijes is located on Fremont, if you park at the Neonopolis parking take the elevator up to the 3rd floor you're there! Very convenient and easy to find. The moment I walked in my breath was instantly taken away. This spot is sooo beyond beautiful from the vibrant colors to beautiful decor. The staff is so sweet and inviting and Chef Paco is a true gem you can see how much passion he has for what he does and it shines through in his establishment, his staff and his food. I've come here a couple times already and the service is exceptional and the food exceeded above and beyond any expectations I had. Being part Mexican I absolutely love that Chef is highlighting different Mexican cities each month on his menu. They are such unique dishes and so delicious! I had the tortilla soup and the broth was the best I've ever had. The chips and mole was something I haven't had before but the mole was perfectly seasoned, chips nice and warm and perfectly salted. If you choose to do their 5 course meals, they pair it with an amazing drink through each meal which I thought was really special. Both times I've come here I've had amazing experiences. The space is very large inside, they play lively music, have a stage if you want to get up there and sing live music and sometimes they have performances as well! They have booth, table and bar seating. I cannot say enough good things about this spot, they deserve more love because they have made me feel at home each time I come! Thank you Chef Paco and staff. read more

Came here before a show next door. It was a weekday and we basically had the place to ourselves (5:30pm). They have a nice outdoor patio that overlooks the Fremont Street experience so we sat there. They provide free tortilla chips with mole. Mole is not my favorite thing so I would have preferred salsa but I do appreciate a place doing something different. I got the chicken enchiladas and my boyfriend got the mahi mahi burrito. They were both pretty good. The enchiladas had 3 which was maybe a bit much with rice/beans. The entrees were about $20 each. We also had the tropical and berry margaritas which were good but a bit weak on the alcohol. The service was excellent. They also have very large bathrooms so definitely not likely to wait there... seriously, it absurd on the amount of stalls but I'm guessing this space was originally something else. I'd say it's a nice option for the Fremont area. read more

High quality food and great service! Beautiful, clean restaurant. I attended an SBA business event here this evening. There were well over 100 people and the staff handled everything perfectly! They were friendly, accommodating, and able to validate parking (NOTE - Google Neonopolis Underground Parking for the garage). We also had a buffet that included chips and salsa, salad, chicken taquitos, chicken and beef fajitas, beans, fluffy white rice, and pork. Everything was flavorful, fresh and so good! I highly recommend this restaurant when looking for authentic Latin flavors in Downtown Las Vegas! read more

First this is for tourist period. im mexican and i can tell you i was not impressed by this place. the only reason we were here was someone who follows influencers found it. i want good food not for the look. to get there it's kinda like going in a back alley were a strip joint would be. if you are going to spend money look for a place that the food is good not cause an influencer says so. not alot of people inside cause it's in a bad spot away from the mass of people. Azteca Deli in Westbury NY is better food by far. sorry chef not inpressed read more

Some of the best authentic Mexican food in Las Vegas. Every dish I have tried has been full of flavor. Their flam is to die for. And I could make a meal of their tortilla soup. The space is welcoming. It has a balcony which overlooks Fremont street. Easy parking and access. read more

The food, ambiance, service, and the Flan!! 10 stars if I could. We sat at the bar as soon as they opened. Our bartender was the best- not only were his margaritas on point, he also gifted us with a flan and we don't usually order dessert but omg I'd get that over and over again. read more

Absolutely perfect! We were the first ones in at exactly 11 and was greeted by Marvin. The service is one of the best on the Fremont Experience and the food was outstanding! The views from the outdoor patio is something you cannot find unless you are here. When we arrived it was nice and quiet so you can really enjoy your meal and have a conversation. The carnitas burrito was excellent, the meat was perfect size and very tender. The duck tacos are excellent but the habanero hot sauce makes it top notch. I had the habanero hot sauce for the burrito and it really kicks the flavors. Will definitely be back, hope all of the servers are as attentive and friendly like Marvin! read more

If I could give a review on just the view itself they would get a five the restaurant bar is gorgeous it has the most amazing views and probably is a great place to hold a party. They serve Mole chips as the appetizer . I feel like this is a taste not everyone enjoys and it probably should be salsa instead. I do really like the case of Fundo but was it the best I have ever had probably not but it wasn't the worst either. The staff was amazing the margarita was great. My shrimp is all right I don't know that I'll be back but if you're just looking for views and drinks I would definitely go here! read more

We ate here for the first time this past weekend. We had the salmon burrito bowl which was so good as well as the steak fajitas which were okay. We finished off with a delicious vanilla flan. The beer was ice cold too! Our server was very friendly but despite a small crowd he didn't check on us enough. My beer was empty long enough that by the time I finished my meal and he finally checked on us I no longer wanted a fresh beer but rather the check to pay. The food was priced fairly with above avg portions but the price of a 16 oz beer was a little much I'll go back again and try some other dishes because I like the location and friendly staff. read more

Amazing find! Came here after a show at the Noteriety feeling hungry and loving the theme. The server was very nice and welcoming, the atmosphere felt festive and authentic. We had the roasted corn (amazing), chicken enchiladas with the mole sauce (YUM) and the cochinita pibil (sooo good). All dishes were fire. First time trying cochinita pibil and it was just perfectly flavorful without being too rich. We couldn't finish everything and had a little to go home which was awesome. Bill for an appetizer and 2 entrees with left overs did not even hit a bill including a decent tip. We were pleasantly surprised to find a great restaurant on a whim. To top it off, server brought out a flan on the house, and my boyfriend said it might be the best flan he's had- really creamy and pretty rich so don't let the size fool you, it was filling. Saw they have drag brunches and now planning to try that!! read more

I can't say this place is just good, its excellent! It started with the chef Paco welcoming us very warmly, followed by the bartender, Marvin, who was attentive to even the smallest details. He guided us in choosing a delicious mezcalita and food, everything that we tasted was clearly fresh, from the rice to the flan which was delicious! read more

Way over priced for the attitudes they serve here. The server was annoyed to serve us. The hostesses had a bad attitude. No one is here and we've been waiting 15 min for margs... Wtf is up with this place? The chef was also rude Update. The owner responding to me the way he did- WOW! This place had a lot of "hope" however there's no way they will last with how they treat people. Telling me I can't afford to eat here and go to Taco Bell.... To be clear we didn't even get to order and tried talking with staff before we left because of the service! For a Sunday night, and barely any customers... and plenty of staff we shouldn't have gone through what we went through.... NOPE! Francisco, nice try with your intimidation". What a nice way to make sure we give our business to an establishment that deserves it!, which is NOT you! Also, to make sure ANY person supporting local artists and shows next door keeps walking before or after! Shame on you! You sure think you know a lot for someone that "wasn't" willing to address the situation at all or was even "around". read more

Came out for dinner a few nights ago and it was pretty sad. We were probably among 3 other tables. This place is fairly big and very nicely situated. The food was probably about 2-3 stars. It wasn't super great. They have a singer/performer and she sang well but it was just random since we were the only ones in the main room. She was being recorded the whole time. I think this place has potential because of the location but I think the food needs work. read more

I came here for my 50th birthday with a group of 13. The food was terrible. The fajitas were overcooked. The meat was so dry it wasn't edible. The enchiladas were dry with barely any sauce on them and they were cold. The food came out in shifts so some people were almost done eating before others received their meal. Some of the items we ordered didn't arrive. The rice was awful. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Worst experience. Service was terrible read more

We went to Alebrijes because it had high reviews on Yelp. It was actually pretty hard to find on Fremont since it's located upstairs. We ordered the carne asada burritos and the camarones a la diabla. The restaurant wasn't very crowded -- just a few customers. When the food came out, my rice was cold and the shrimp were small and barely lukewarm. I mentioned it to the waiter, but I don't think he heard everything I said because he only brought reheated rice. My husband's burrito was also lukewarm. We didn't come to pay high prices for food that tastes like it was microwaved. Nothing felt freshly made. The mole chips were okay, but I'd rather stick with traditional chips and salsa. This will be our first and last time at this place read more

Las Vegas Restaurant Week 2025 adventures continued with dinner at Alebrijes Cantina by Chef Paco at the Fremont Street Experience on Wednesday, 6/11/25. This restaurant was hard to find! We looked all around based on the address for the restaurant. Couldn't readily find it. Had to call and ask for directions. It's on the 3rd floor down in an "off-shoot" of Fremont Street. There's no visible signage for the restaurant until you walk down towards Denny's. Then you see a sandwich board type sign. $40 dinner: Started off with the runner brining us a little order of chips and mole. YUM! Very good mole. First course: I ordered the Panuchos: homemade corn tortilla with black beans Cochinita pibil, fresh avocado, pickle onions, and queso fresco. Delicious and savory. The meat was moist and the corn tortilla was light and airy. Second course: I ordered the Mar Y Tierra Tacos: Corn tortilla with toasted cheese, guacamole, chipotle ancho dressing, salsa pasilla, steak, grilled shrimp, bacon, cilantro onion, and queso fresco. The steak on this one was a little over cooked but the salsa pasilla and the chipotle ancho dressing helped. Nice surf n' turf tacos. Great flavor. But the corn tortilla fell apart easily so made it semi-messy. Third course: Flan: Chef Paco's family recipe, available in 2 amazing flavors: traditional vanilla or coffee. I ordered the coffee flan; which was a dense flan with a very light coffee flavor and the caramel sauce under the flan worked well together. The restaurant is decorated very authentically "Mexican" and the various little figures through-out the restaurant were super colorful and great mural artwork by the stage. Our server was super friendly and attentive. Quick to get our orders out to us and get us whatever we requested quickly. Very good experience and priced well. read more

My boyfriend and I were heading down to Fremont Street and were in the mood for Mexican food. We noticed this place on the second floor so we thought we would give it a shot. We got seated right away. The hostess was very nice. The restaurant was actually bigger than I thought it was. They also have outside seating. They have both table and booth options. I did notice a very small stage so I'm not sure what events they may have there, but they may have some. We were greeted pretty quickly when we sat down and given our menus. My boyfriend and I got tacos and a burrito. We did order a soup, but unfortunately, it came out cold and because it seemed like it was microwaved when it came back to us, and not fresh we ended up sending it back. The tacos were absolutely delicious. One of the best tacos that I've eaten. The steak was tender and very flavorful. The burrito was also very good. We did have a nice waiter. Though there was quite a bit of time where the staff got busy and we were waiting quite a long time to be checked on. I did feel like if we sat outside we probably would've been helped a little bit quicker. It was a little surprising to me that ourselves, and only one other couple were inside at one point and with all the people working there, no one came to check on us. The portions were a pretty good size. The tacos were so good though I do wish it did come with four tacos. The chef did come introduce himself, which was nice. I would come here again. I did like the food and there's a few other things that I would like to try. I do recommend coming here if you're in the mood for some good Mexican food. They do have restrooms inside, though I did not use them. They did have a TV on and some music playing. The restaurant was really clean and nicely decorated. It is located on the second floor. You can use the escalator to go up. read more

We are VERY picky with Mexican restaurants and this one blew us away. ALL of the food our party of 12 had was delicious. The drinks both regular and alcoholic were great. The service was excellent. Our server Jessica was so attentive and brought everything you asked for almost immediately. The ambiance was beautiful and great inspiration for home decor ideas. We live out of state but when in Vegas we will for sure come again! Since the first visit we have been back 5 times every time amazing and delicious read more

Husband and I went to try it out for date night. The decor and ambiance were fantastic! Service was spot on... unfortunately, for my husband and myself, the food was subpar. I got the chile rellano with rice and beans. The chile rellano was overcooked and underwhelming. The rice was a bit on the crunchy side. My husband ordered the shrimp tacos. He said they were alright, but nothing to get excited about. We also ordered the guacamole and chips. The guacamole was clearly not made to order, it seemed like it may have been made in the morning and that's what was still there at 7pm. I know they have only been open a month, so I think we will wait a bit so they can work their kinks out and maybe we will try again. read more
