May E.

Such an unassuming little restaurant. It's in a weird plaza, but tons of parking available. The restaurant itself is quite small, and it was packed in there. Great food with great prices, very fresh and tasty maricsos. Would definitely come back!

Tostadas
Victoria N.

Came here well on a work trip because we were craving ceviche. The ceviche was really good. It was just a small portion so you would definitely have to order two if it was your main dish it was an interesting restaurant with no windows.

Bacon wrapped shrimp is very tasty, rice was too garlicky for me.
Peanut B.

Delicious reasonable prices, good service. I come here every time I come to Vegas I'm Originally from Cali my fiancé loves this place.

Ceviche mixto botana
Victor A.

Went on a Friday afternoon, was pretty dead which was great for me! Food was overall good, the ceviche mixto botana had a really good flavor, nothing tasted off! The shrimp empanadas were good, soft and tasty. The drink was citrusy, slightly sweet with a nice little sting of alcohol! Service was awesome I sat down, got my food and check quickly! Ambiance was nice it had some tasteful music playing!

Aguachiles
Miyoshi M.

Great food. Great service. Small cozy family type spot. Ordered Aguachiles cause I was craving something delicious. It was really good. Im surprised cause it Las Vegas but 9/10.

Came here once again & had another amazing experience. We had a mixed ceviche platter to share, not only was it incredibly delicious, but it was also well served & at the perfect point in terms of flavor. Our Micheladas, as always, served in an ice cold glass by a kind server. This might be my favorite Mexican seafood restaurant in town.

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

Tostada agua chiles

Omg this place is amazing the food is so delicious always the best service I go here every time I'm in Vegas multiple times lol

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 !

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.

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

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

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.

Lobster in garlic butter sauce in foreground.  Tres Marias center. Shrimp in chipotle sauce up top.

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!

Did the sushi rice and hand rolls. Very tasty and fresh. I had a hazy IPA and a coffee stout. Both great beers. 20 taps with 10 of their own beers and 10 guest taps. Give or take. Hope to visit when I'm back in January!

I don't understand..how is this place not getting more recognition and love…read more It's in the Arts district across from the English hotel. We finally got to make are our way after some friends mentioned how much they LOVED the food. That sold us and off we went. Tucked in between buildings, kind of tricky to see there signage but you'll notice a gold sitting man statue right by the door. Good lawwwd the food here just blew us away. We had the Yellow Tail Crudo. This was refreshing, sauce was excellent and savory we remarked on perfect they had this cut it wasn't thin or overtly thick. Enough to pick up and and enjoy the bite. Crispy Rice, was hit we're suckers for this sort of dish. The small bites, tasty tuna, crispy rice and glaze is all around tasty as fu*k. Teppan Udon Noodles - I don't usually order noodles when I'm having sushi, but this dish came highly recommended by our friend. After the 1st bite we saw why. The sauce is insanely savory, a bit thick but paired so well with the dense udon noodle. If you like noodles definitely fit this one in. Negi Toro Roll - Is a stand up throw your glasses across the room good. I hate how much I loved it bc I know I'll crave it. It's not a heavy roll in fact it's so light you'll believe you can probably eat 2 or 3 more..I was told no bc I already ordered enough dishes..I did get full after scarfing eveything..but I still wanted more! Just go, gawd now I'm craving eveything again. You might find me there.

I'd been thinking about this meal since my first pan roast in June…read more I arrived at the Palace Station Casino on Saturday. We got in the Oyster Bar Line at 11:34AM. Reading previous reviews, I saw some people stating that they waited two hours so I was mentally preparing. It seemed as though there were about 15 people in front of us in line so I was hoping it would go fast. We ended up getting seated at 12:59pm. So it was about an hour and a half for us. Victoria was our server and she was on top of it! Immediately when we sat down, she handed us two sourdough bread rolls, some butter, and the menus. She asked us what we wanted to drink and my partner ordered a draft beer, whereas I just had my water from my water bottle. She then asked us if we needed some time to look at the menu or if we were ready and after an hour and a half wait, we were well prepared with what we wanted to order. We ordered a dozen of the gulf oysters, and two pan roasts. One pan roast was the combo (level 2) and the other was the palace pan roast (level 3). When both pan roasts came out they were HOT, but that was not stopping us from shoving every bite of deliciousness into our mouths. Having had the palace pan roast in the past, and now trying the combo pan roast, I really did enjoy the combo better because I'm more of a seafood person. My partner had the palace pan roast for the first time and he instantly understood why I was raving about it for months. There's just something about the tomatoey, creamy, bisque like consistency mixed with some white rice that I just can't describe other than perfect. This is what you dream about on a cold fall day. I've personally always enjoyed the level 2 spice level, because I don't find it to be spicy or painful at all, but the man in front of us in line said he prefers 5. I like that you're able to customize it because everyone has a different spice tolerance and what everyone finds enjoyable is subjective per person. My partner and I ended up ordering an extra side of rice when it became apparent that the one side each would not be enough for us. He loves his rice, and I only take nibbles, so he usually eats mine. However, for this meal, I was not sharing my rice, so he had to order another side. Overall- highly recommend. The food is well worth the wait. After being in line for an hour and a half it's hard to be grumpy when the service is so efficient & friendly and the food taste this good.

I finally tried the Oyster Bar, and even on a Monday there was a line. I waited about 25 minutes…read more Like everyone says, there really isn't much seating. It's literally a bar, but it's a pretty cool setup. I ordered a Paloma and it was really, really good. Service was okay, especially considering how busy they were and the limited seating. One thing I appreciated was that even with people waiting, they didn't make us feel rushed to eat and get out. Now the food? Straight BOMB. I'm used to ordering seafood gumbo or a pan roast with lobster and having to search for the actual seafood. Not here! They give you big, beautiful pieces of seafood, and the portions are huge. We made the mistake of ordering our own instead of paying attention to the people around us because we definitely could've shared. And a warning about the oysters: they are HUMONGOUS. Seriously, keep that in mind when deciding how many to order. Between the generous portions, quality seafood, and that Paloma, I can definitely see why there's always a line. Four stars for me!

The dining area had a candy bar shape, there is also seating at the bar. Please please sit by a window though, for some premium people watching of some of Downtown's more affluent residents. So far everything I've had here is bomb, we usually start with the chips with bean dip and ease our way into one of the most diverse and colorful taco and tostada collections I've ever seen on a menu, there's also a good chunk of ceviche. The Bajamar fish taco is an instant classic, watch out for the small green pepper chunks! My favorite is the Puerto Nuevo Taco, Shrimp with rice and beans with some pico and chile. Also enjoyed the octopus chicharron. Long live the chicharron! We also share the Surf N Turf fries, shrimp and carne asada mixed with mozzarella on fries! A must share with a companion or all by yourself. Couldn't ask for more in service, they check on you constantly and it's easy to get their attention. The ambiance does have a Baja beach vibe to it with the playa music and colorful aura. This will be in my repertoire for a while, come check it out!

I did my homework before this visit, so I knew exactly what I wanted. I walked in solo around 3:45…read morewithout a reservation and was seated right away. I got lucky, though I wouldn't leave it to chance, especially with a larger party. The service was friendly and attentive from start to finish, from the host to the busser to the server. I was seated outside, which made for great people-watching. I started with the calamari, then moved on to the wedge salad and the seafood platter. Calamari: Amazing. It was fried to a crisp, well-seasoned exterior while the inside stayed tender and chewy, never greasy. I loved the mix of tentacles and rings, and the cocktail sauce and aioli were spot-on. Wedge salad: The kitchen cut it up for me, so every forkful was a perfect bite. The vinaigrette complemented the blue cheese dressing nicely. Seafood platter: The star of the night. It came with four large chargrilled shrimp, a lobster tail, and sautéed scallops. Everything tasted fresh, and the chargrilling was fantastic. The scallops were properly cooked, but if you prefer a firmer texture, you'll want to tell your server. The portions are generous, too. I had enough for a full meal the next day. This is now my favorite restaurant in Vegas. I'll definitely be back!

Our server Pablo (Paulo?) was amazing. We had a huge bachelor and bachelorette party of 18 people…read moreand he was so attentive. The service was amazing - food came out fast and there was no lag between courses. If you have a huge group of people I would definitely recommend doing it at Joe's - it was really easy to work with their team to set the menu and figure everything out. We originally had 19 people, but last minute somebody couldn't make it. They still charged us for 19 people, so we asked if we could get the meal to go since we paid for it and they were accommodating. The only thing was that the food was so salty. The steak was almost inedible because of how salty it was. The Caesar salad was incredibly salty too. The appetizers were great though - the calamari and shrimp de jonghe were highlights.

For the mains, the Chilean sea bass was perfectly cooked, but the absolute highlight was the butternut squash gnocchi paired with the butternut squash puree. Spectacular! Give me 14 of them right now! We finished the night with the pistachio tiramisu featuring a housemade pistachio Nutella, which was the perfect end to the meal.
