    This was a vibe! A fun spot in midtown where you can get some amazing tequila and all of the shrimp dishes your heart desires. Sadly my husband is allergic to shellfish so the only thing on the menu we could get was the chips and guacamole. But they were delicious! As were our cocktails! We will definitely be back form drinks! There is plenty of space for large and small groups! Parking behind the building or on Virginia street, but it is limited.

    Agua chile verde and guava michelada.

    I love this place but I hate their hours!!! Micheladas and sea food are meant to be eaten during the day. Most Marisquerías are open for lunch and close early, plus micheladas are meant to be a hangover cure.

    Vibe is cute. Staff was friendly and service was quick. What I really appreciate is the bartender actually doing a thick Tajin rim! Usually when I ask for this, they never seem to understand what thick means, but this bartender did exactly what I wanted it. The margarita was amazing. The Michelada was delicious. We also ordered guac which was very good. We did have to ask for more chips. 10/10 would recommend.

    Guava michelada and Aguachiles verdes.

    Had a chance to check out Miches Vatos and it did not disappoint. I ordered the guava michelada with a Victoria and this combo was the perfect balance of tart, sweet, and savory with that smooth, malty finish from the Victoria. I also had the Aguachiles verdes, and let me just say... some of the best I've had in town. The salsa verde had that fresh, citrusy kick, and the butterfly shrimp cut? Chef's kiss. It makes a big difference if you don't like chewy shrimp. Heads up: food took about 30-40 minutes to come out, but they had an event going on that night and were clearly slammed. Still, the place was clean, well decorated and the drinks came out fast.

    Walking in was very inviting, especially from the bartender and waitress's! They were super kind and very helpful when we had questions. Our waitress was very attentive and was amazing when she brought out more tostada shells! We didn't ask but she automatically did it. Speaking of the food, we ordered the Jalisco Ceviche and it was absolutely delicious! Well crafted and perfectly layered. The juice at the bottom was to die for. You'll want to crave more. Their Micheladas are fantastic too and always go for the mango one. Highly recommend giving them a try. It's a big expensive but worth the try. Hope they can implement a happy hour because I'd be there for that!

    Long overdue- this is one of my favorite spots in Reno. The food & cocktails are amazing. The Tostada Macha and the aguachile are the best, and the live music is always fun.

    Wandered in on a Friday evening (~6:30pm) and it was quite dead for that time. Not necessarily a complaint, hopefully they're just picking up business with their new location. I liked the vibe, lots of live plants and it had a clean, modern feel, almost upscale. The ceviche was fantastic! Just ordered the classic Jalisco style. The bartender was super nice and brought us an extra plate and chips, unsolicited. My only complaint is the drink list - no draft beers (only bottles/cans), I can't recall if there was a wine option. It seems like it caters to more of a liquor crowd, which just isn't really my thing. I'd like to go back and try other ceviches for sure!

    So fun that this has its own spot in midtown now and not just at the Reno Public Market. We came here on a Thursday night and it was fairly slow but we loved the ambiance. Dark, moody, lighting. We started with cocktails. They were a little sweet, but the michelada was amazing. I'm a bit of a pansy of when it comes to spice, so I definitely downed my drink quickly! It was a slow heat for both dishes. Nothing I couldn't push past. Great, unique flavors. There's some items I didn't get to try. Will definitely be coming back

    Aguachile Rojo - Mad fresh and not that spicy if you can't handle the verde
    Adonis H.

    I tried Miches Vatos when they were still at Reno Public Market awhile ago and thoroughly enjoyed their aguachile verde. It was spicy, tangy and extremely fresh. The presentation was also something to note and you could tell they took their time creating a beautiful platter. I don't drink, so I can't speak to the micheladas, but they do look good and they offer flavor varieties such as mango and guava. I came back to the new location for a comedy show with my partner and we had a great time in there! It's very clean and well put together. The decor is nice and you do feel like you're at a hip club seeing a show if you get a good table. We wanted to show up early to eat and enjoy the show and got a great table to set up for awhile. My partner can't handle spice too well, so we opted for the aguachile rojo this time around and it was just as delicious as the other time we came. The shrimp are butterflied and just soak up the tangy, spicy sauce. I was happy to see that the quality remained consistent between such different visits! The service was also great, especially when it isn't too busy. It definitely seems like they could use a hand though, because once it got busy after the show, I stood at the bar for almost 10 minutes just to pay and was constantly trying to get someone's attention. Not gonna ding them for that though, business is good and they are handling it.

    The ceviche was tasty and fresh! Chill vibe for a Saturday night. Service was ok. Might be back to try other things on the menu and a tequila drink!

    YUM! I absolutely love sitting at the bar and enjoying a michelada and some ceviche here. It's always so good, HUGE portions, and super friendly staff. I usually get the Jalisco which is not as spicy, but still has some good heat to it.

    This is the best ever ceviche I have ever tried thus far! The ceviche jalisco is what I ordered, I am unsure what their secret ingredient is but all their ingredients blended together sooo well, from sweetness, to savory, to tartness, and spicy level. If I can give this place more than 5 stars I definitely would!!! Definitely coming back to this place whenever in Reno!

First off, huge shoutout to the staff at both locations. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful. We had a group of about 12 showing up and ordering at different times, plus another large party there, and they handled it all really well. The patio has such a great Midtown vibe, and I'm always happy supporting local small businesses. We ordered a little bit of everything: ribeye gorditas with homemade tortillas, street tacos, quesadillas, loaded papas, elote, and I even attempted the AYCE tacos. The carnitas was some of my favorite in town, the guac was delicious, and my friend loved the skirt steak tacos. Plus, the three salsas they serve are all so good. Tacos are always subjective, but I'd absolutely recommend giving Ana's a try because there's something for everyone on the menu. The cocktails are fun too, and I'll definitely be back.

Upon walking in,I was impressed with the patrons,this was a no frills crowd who looked like they were all in on a secret that this place was going to be a really good foodie spot.This is one of those spots where u walk up and order at the counter and they bring your food out to you.I loved the decor as you can really tell the owners are proud of their Jalisco roots.As an added bonus-I do tend to like taquerias that have pics of the menu items on the walls-always been a good luck charm for me that the place would be pretty good. We ordered a few things-A Super Burrito with Al Pastor($13.50)-it was pretty tasty-way way filling-killed my buzz totally-which I guess was the goal-I'd order it again for sure.We Also got a Shrimp taco($5)My wife is from Jalisco,so kinda picky with her Mexican food but she thought it was pretty tasty-one of the most flavorful tacos she has had in a long time.We also got the 2 enchilada plate with ground beef and chicken($15.50)-This dish came with rice and bean-I really liked the rice quite a bit and beans went well with the chips because of the added cheese on the beans.One thing I didn't love was the fact that you had to pay for chips and salsa-I'm sure I'm just spoiled from all the places that gives those out for free but I guess that's the way it goes-pretty sure it was like $3-no biggie. In closing-if u ever find yourself in Reno and u want something other than the commercial stuff they sell in the casinos-I would highly recommend walking across the street from Silver Legacy and walk into this little hole in the wall hidden gem of a restaurant and enjoy yourself a taste of Jalisco -you won't be disappointed.

Mexcal is a taco joint serving up elevated tacos that you can order one by one. These things are loaded up with protein and toppings, and they do not skimp on the portions! The flavor combinations are absolutely unreal, and I love that they have some unique protein options, too. I tried the duck confit, the spicy lamb, and the short rib tacos. My dad ordered the al pastor and quesabirria tacos. We both agreed that the short rib was our favorite. Tender short rib in a delicious sauce topped with fresh guac. Fantastic! I was also shocked by how much duck they loaded up the duck confit taco with. That was probably my second favorite. Super tender duck with tons of flavor. The vibe here is casual, but it can be a nice, elevated date night spot. I really enjoy that you can order one or two tacos and then order more if you're still hungry. The service between orders is fast enough that you don't have to feel pressured to order them all at the same time. Overall, very impressed with Mexcal, and it will often be one of my recs to others looking for a great bite in the midtown/downtown area.

The bread arrives with that perfect crusty exterior and airy interior that holds up beautifully once it's "drowned" in the vibrant, slightly spicy tomato-chile sauce. The pork inside is tender and flavorful, and the balance of acidity, heat, and richness feels fresh rather than heavy. It tastes remarkably close to what you'd find in Jalisco, which makes it feel genuinely authentic rather than a watered-down version for tourists. We also got tacos dorados de papa and those were pretty amazing too. The micheladas and chavelas are just as impressive. They're crisp, well-seasoned, and perfectly chilled, with just the right amount of lime, spice, and salt on the rim. They pair incredibly well with the tortas and make the whole meal feel even more special. On top of the food and drinks, the service really elevates the experience. The staff is attentive, friendly, and clearly proud of what they serve, checking in just enough without hovering. Overall, it's a spot that delivers on flavor, authenticity, and hospitality, making it a standout choice for anyone craving great Mexican comfort food. Will definitely be coming back.
