    Mocajete meal
    Gerardo G.

    Coming from San Diego only 1 mile from the Mexican border I didn't expect much from this place. WOW i was wrong. The aqua chile was better then any i have ever had from San Diego or Tijuana beaten only by one i ate in Mazatlan Mexico. The molcajete plate was also amazing. I just coming here hands down. Next time i come back to Vegas i will be back. To put it simple this place isn't good for Vegas. It Good for anywhere !

    Shrimp Tacos and Gobernardor Taco
    Mr. C.

    Vegas Mexican food? Let's do it, coming from California I had to give it a shot. Got me 2 shrimp tacos and a Gobernador, along with rice and beans. The shrimp tacos had good flavors to them, overall nothing stood out that crazy but they weren't bad, especially with the green salsa. The Gobernador taco had too much cheese to be honest. It didn't really need all those bell peppers either, wasn't a big fan, the cheese overpowered everything. The beans were decent and the rice was pretty mediocre, not sure why they gave the white rice. I forgot to mention I tried the shrimp ceviche and it was solid. Good flavoring and juices, paired nice with the crackers given. Gobernador: 5.6 Shrimp Tacos: 7.2 Rice: 6.2 Beans: 7.0 Shrimp Ceviche: 7.9

    Best mariscos spot in Vegas Off the strip. Great prices, delicious food, clean environment. Service is excellent; friendly and fast. Come back every time we're in Vegas.

    Best Mariscos in Vegas!!! From Palms Casino it's only a 12 minute drive. The Mariscos are Always super fresh and what I love the most is that the recipes, presentation, and flavor is consistently the same. Their customer service is the absolute best, it's always clean and the best music always playing! Come here, don't go anywhere else, If you're looking for the BEST MARISCOS you've ever had! Must try the Shrimp Empanadas and Camarones Al Ajillo.

    Molcajete familiar so good. This is our go to when we come to Vegas and it never disappoints!!!

    Clean, Great food, great service never leave here disappointed. Love this place. Friendly staff always

    My friend & I are from So Cal. I grew up in Boyle Heights, LA & have eaten Lots of Mexican food. This place is AWESOME! I had the Lobster in garlic & butter. My friend had the shrimp in a chipotle sauce. SO good, both of them. I kept stealing his sauce. House made beans, house made rice, hand made tortillas, & GOOD house made salsa with at least 6 different bottled chile sauces on the table. And the Tres Marias margarita sampler was da bomb!!! All the sides complimented the main dishes beautifully. And service was warm & friendly even as we practiced our broken Spanish with the server. Loved the decor & ambiance. You know you are in a Mexican place that loves their roots. When in Vegas we will definitely be coming back for more!

    Best mariscos I've ever tried in Vegas! Spicy as hell I felt I was back in Mexico! Definitely I'll be going back everytime I'm in Vegas!

    Sour ceviche
    Cielo R.

    We really wanted to like this place, but our ceviche was EXTREMELY SOUR way way to much lime juice.. all you can taste is lime? And it was warm so it really threw us off. We didn't order anything else after trying the ceviche. Place is clean and our server was nice but we won't be returning unfortunately.

    Aguachiles were so good and flavorful ! :) honestly the best I've had in a while ! Def recommend this spot and it's not too far from the Las Vegas strip ! Staff was great

    Shrimp Cocktail
    Damien H.

    So I've been craving a good Shrimp Cocktail, so I came to yelp and found Mariscos Playa Escondida!!! And I will say! This place was amazing! I'm he server was very attentive, but at the same time not overbearing. I loved this spot! The music was chill, the decor was nice and welcoming! I felt like I was at a friends grandmas house for the weekend! This place is now on my radar and will be my new go to spot for their seafood! I'm trying everything seafood on the menu! I'll be back this weekend! Next on my list is the Torre De Mariscos!!! Also all of the negative reviews are just ppl crying...go for yourself you'll see!

    Fish and mixto ceviche
    Remy A.

    Delicious seafood oysters where fresh and ceviche has good flavor clean establishment

    Chipotle camarones
    Maria A.

    Highly recommend this restaurant the food is deliciously amazing and very authentic. The flavors and portion sizes are well worth the price . Tortillas are homemade. We came back for the second time before heading back to California. Recommend the horchata and Jamaica . FYI if you check in via Yelp you get a free small Jamaica . Chips and salsa are good also chips aren't stale . After my first post of this place it got 2,500 more views only 1 day of posting hopefully this post will give thousands more to this hidden gem !!!!!

    Hands down one of my favorite and most affordable taco spots!…read more It's located next to a busy plaza so parking can be quite difficult They're open daily 10am-2pm. Definitely recommend going when they first open because otherwise it doesn't matter the time or day of the week, the lines are extremely long! Love how spacious the restaurant and how organized it is! Once inside the restaurant, there are several lines and you just line up according to which meat and item you want. The longest lines are definitely the asada and adobada (pork)! Once you reach the front of the line, you just tell the staff which and how many of the item you want, as well as any customizations to it. After you get your order, you just head to the cashier line and paying is so easy and convenient! Pricing is reasonable. - Tacos, tostadas, taco aztecas - $4.12 - Sopes, quesadillas, vampiras, & mulas - $7.54. - fries with meat - $22.18+ - soft drinks - $3.31 Arrived at 11am on Sunday and it was already super crowded. Stood in the asada line for at least half an hour but the wait was so worth it! Got 3 Asada Tacos and the tortilla was so soft, hot, and fresh. It was stuffed with plenty of tender beef! The beef was packed with flavor and marinated so well! The pico de gallo was so delicious, as well as the salsa and guac. The Horchata was ok and nothing special since it wasn't made from scratch like the phenomenal tacos! Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and my food. Definitely would recommend and return!

The first thing I noticed was just how packed the entire Venetian area was that night! Apparently No Doubt was in town performing at Sphere, and since the Venetian parking garage is basically right next door, the whole resort had a ton of energy and nonstop foot traffic. It was definitely busy! CHICA had a really fun atmosphere. The restaurant itself feels stylish and upscale without being overly formal. The décor had this vibrant inspired energy with music, lighting, and a social vibe that works really well for group dinners or events! Since it was catered for the event, I only tried a selection of tapas, but everything I had was really good! All of the food was flavorful, well presented, and easy to share while mingling! I really enjoyed the experience! Between the Vegas energy from the Sphere crowd, the lively atmosphere inside CHICA, and the solid food, it ended up being a really fun evening during the conference trip! Definitely somewhere I'd consider coming back to for a full dinner next time I'm on the Strip.

    SO GOOD! Favorite spot of the day , hands down. What a great way to end our day trip to Vegas!…read more We started with two appetizers which were more on an amuse bouche. Small in size but packed with flavor. The Himachi? We could've eaten ten of them. Deeeelicious. The main course came out while I stepped away for a few minutes so I missed the fire show, but got to see it when another table got it later. The taste of the beef was absolutely amazing and loved the accrucements that accompanied it as well. We ended our meal with an almost missed Tres Leches. (Silly me didn't ask for the dessert menu, almost had grounds for being left in Las Vegas!). I'm so glad we circled back and got it, cause it was fan freakin tastic Service also was amazing - our server was so patient and kind

Between the music, crowd, and fire performances, it really feels like a full experience and not just dinner. I will say, when we first arrived the front dining room surrounded by candles was VERY warm. I asked if they could lower the AC because while I totally understand the ambiance they're going for, once everyone starts eating and drinking it gets hot fast. They were very accommodating and did lower it a bit, which we appreciated. I also loved that they start you off with pico de gallo and chips for the table, and when we asked for more they happily brought extra. Such a small thing but it made the experience feel really welcoming and generous. For food, we ordered the truffle quesadilla, street corn, and the Chicken Parm Mexicana. The truffle quesadilla was SO good and packed with flavor from the mushrooms, truffle oil, and cheese. The street corn was delicious too, and the Chicken Parm Mexicana was such a fun twist on a classic. Crispy chicken, flavorful sauce, and perfectly melted Chihuahua cheese. For drinks, I had the Toca Margarita and loved it. Super fresh and well balanced. Service was great throughout the night and the atmosphere made it such a fun place for our group dinner before the No Doubt concert at the Sphere. Would absolutely come back on another Vegas trip!!
