My favorite restaurant inside Harrah's casino. Overpriced? Yes, but hey still the best flavor & financial option inside the casino. Free chips & salsa. Margaritas on point--my fav is the Blood Orange Margarita, my bf's is the Watermelon Margarita, and my mom's is the Peach Margarita. Carne Asada Fries were thick with an airy crisp. Meat kind of lacking, but overall flavors were there. Combo Fajitas were my favorite. We got the large to share $37, came with 6 tortillas, sides of rice and beans, guacamole, and the fajitas itself. Gotta love the bell peppers. Flavors overall were there. Didn't like the birria ramen. The ramen noodle texture was thin and fragile, like instant ramen. Meat was tender but there was barely any. Overall lacking on toppings. Soup was salty, needed more lime to cut it. Not my favorite restaurant in the world and probably wouldn't recommend someone drive for this, but it's definitely the best choice if you're staying at Harrah's already!

Queso fundido
Mary Ann V.

The service was great! Which is the 5! The food was a 3 For it being a Mexican restaurant at a resort, it was decent Tried the Birria Ramen, the meat was soft, the soup was flavorful, not all the noodles were separated (like it was from a block of noodles but a portion was still a block) The queso fundido was ok but I liked the chicharron with it

Carne Asada Breakfast burrito
Dave W.

Stopped in for lunch before hitting the games and was pleasantly surprised! Cary was a sweetheart and she was quick, courteous, kind and jovial! The carne asada breakfast burrito was delicious and the combination of sauces & salsa really brought it all together. The atmosphere was festive and bright; I really enjoyed the view of the pool from the indoors! Next time I'm bringing my swim trunks! Cary! You did it! I appreciate your service given the size of the party!

Food is not great and not authentic. Chips are salty and charge $5 for replacement. Food is ordinary, no taste. Prices high. Waitress is old and slow. Service was fast but the food is not

Saturday, 11-01-2025: My husband came to pick up his free gift from the casino gifting center. While we were here we decided to return to 'Rita's Cantina after a long while. We were happy there was no wait to be seated. Our server was very friendly but could have been more attentive. He brought out complimentary tortilla chips & salsa, which was very good. The o food orders came out quickly. My husband ordered the cheese enchiladas and I had the chicken quesadilla. Both meals were delicious and satisfying. This restaurant is decorated very nicely and it's clean. It's adjacent to the pool area with its tropical theme. One star off because it was a while before the server returned to the table so we could pay. Other than that, we would return here plus I got a military discount.

Birria Ramen
Sabrina C.

Great service from friendly staff. Cocktail so good I wish I could have had another but I'm a light weight. Birria Ramen exceeded my expectations. Don't pass this place up.

The food here was actually pretty good! You can sit in the patio with the view of the pool. You can also order from your pool chair. We chose to dine in for dinner. Complimentary first round of chips and salsa, $4.99 additional. Chips made in house, thin and crispy. We ordered: -Pork belly chicharron: deep fried crispy pork belly in this elote salsa purée with tortillas and fruit on the side. Tastes exactly like the description. Tortillas made in house. -Guacamole: Had corn and pepita seeds that look like Sun flower seeds. Adds a nice little crunch. -Fish tacos: crispy beer battered fish cod were huge! Came in 3. -Carne asada fries: Their house blend white cheese was not my favorite. -Pozole: This was delish. I love hominy! -Birria tacos: 3 thin birria tacos dipped with consome and came with rice and refried beans. For drinks we got the watermelon Rita and peach Rita. Watermelon had the purée so it tasted refreshing. The peach was nasty. Server said it's his second best. I should have went with my gut to get the gauge which had the purée.

Well besides great food, the service is what makes it an excellent experience! We are always asking for Dina Yuoem to help us because she's absolutely the best! She always makes my wife and I feel like we are the most important patrons and we absolutely love her!!!

Our server Muna was excellent, very attentive. Food was delish. Sat outside and enjoyed the view to the pool and cool music.

I'll be back in 2 weeks for this huge delicious margarita! I hope I can still get 1... or 6

The best margaritas & the best price for refills! My favorite part of coming to Harrah's are these margaritas :)

Fantastic Find: Cocina de Ledezma…read more After a hike, I was on the hunt for some great local Mexican food and found La Cocina de Ledezma--what a gem! The food was incredible and tasted fresh. I tried three different tacos and a Quesabirria, each packed with great flavor. Their birria was especially impressive--it's hard to find good birria! To top it off, there's a coffee cart across the lot with refreshing drinks. I had a Lotus energy drink, and my girl had a spritzer--both hit the spot after a long day outdoors. The service was as amazing as the food. The brother at the register was super friendly, sharing how they prepare everything with care, and his sister in the truck was incredibly sweet and courteous. The two girls at the coffee cart were also lovely and added to the welcoming atmosphere. Though I live far, I'll definitely be coming back. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by for delicious food and great service.

There's tons of different food truck option, good vibes, and lots of tasty finds. Favorites for me were the fried rice bowls from Rice Yo Way (that garlic sauce is fire - so good. Get extra!). The Filipino food bowls from MK Kitchen was really good, too... tasted just like a home cooked meal. And, the absolute standout was the juicy, flavorful steak from Arayaki Hibachi. Oh, and there were a few funnel cake trucks, so I don't remember which one I got funnel cake from, but it was absolutely delicious. Only miss of the night was Raf's Shawarma -- waited almost an hour, and the meat was dry, overcooked and disappointing. The baklava was a soggy mess. And, that sponge cake thing tasted like it was growing mold. They even forgot parts of our order. The garlic sauce and salad thing was good, but never again. We learned our lesson. The wait was so long it just ruined the whole night. So, I'm gonna say skip that one and go to El Basha instead, cuz I still love Mediterranean food. Each time I've been there, there's been a different mix of trucks. So, that adds to the excitement. Can't wait to go back and eat my way through more trucks! Mahalo nui.

I ordered a breakfast burrito with eggs, bacon, ham, potatoes, and cheese, while I waited for tires to be installed at the tire shop across the street. I wanted sausage as well, but they were out at the time of my order. The food was made to order and came out nice and hot. The nice lady, Denia (I believe was her name), was pleasant and explained what was available. She also provided options for salsa (red or green) and supplied enough to last through the whole burrito. The burrito was good. All items were cooked well and melded together in the delicious flour tortilla. There was not nearly enough bacon as I just found bits and pieces throughout. The ham and potatoes were just enough and there was a good amount of cheese. A decent amount of eggs were in the burrito and were cooked just right...none were over cooked and I found no "crispies". The salsa was good. Hot enough for most and had good flavor, not just heat. The location is at the corner of Main and 5th streets. There were no tables or chairs to sit at, so expect to stand and eat or take it to go. All in all, if you want a solid, no frills breakfast burrito, don't hesitate to give this place a shot. I will the next time I'm back for tires or looking for a quick fix while in the area.
