    It's been 6 years since I've been to Sparrow and Wolf and I'm happy to report that the quality is still just as amazing as I remember! The menu has completely changed, but I loved that. We ordered quite a few different items, which I truly wish I remembered everything we got, but it was hard to remember. I truly think you can't go wrong here. I loved that our server asked us if there were any food allergies and was so knowledgeable of the menu that she was able to let us know what we could order and what we should order on the side. The menu is meant to be shared with others, which I love. That is usually how I like to eat when I go out with friends. And we truly enjoyed the entire experience. The mocktail I had was really delicious and refreshing. It's beautiful inside! I would say make a reservation just in case. But I definitely needed this reminder of how amazing this spot is because I will definitely be back sooner than 6 years now haha

    Sinigang clams

    Hands down the best meal I've had in Las Vegas. From start to finish, everything was outstanding and easily lived up to the hype. A few standout dishes were the oxtail hummus, which was absolutely incredible even for someone who usually doesn't like oxtail, the seasonal raw clams with pineapple, which were a surprisingly perfect combination, and the sinigang clams with lemongrass, packed with flavor. The seasonal octopus with squid ink risotto was also excellent, and the passion fruit mousse made for the perfect finish. We were celebrating an early birthday, and the staff surprised me with ice cream, which was such a thoughtful touch. Every server was attentive, warm, and genuinely kind. The vibe and ambiance gave me a dark, romantic, grown and sexy ambiance. Overall, the food, service, and experience were all fantastic, and I can't wait to come back.

    I have wanted to try this place for years and we finally went - disappointed is probably the best word to describe our experience. We felt none of the dishes were good - in fact all were just mediocre at best. We ordered the Isaan Sausage, Oxtail Hummus, Grilled Oysters, and the Spanish Octopus. We wanted to order more, but with each disappointing bite after another, we just decided not to order any more. The first three dishes came out all within 5-7 minutes...and then the octopus came out maybe 15 minutes after the last dish. Service was spotty...we were told they would bring fresh plates but we ate a course with no plates, the snack dish came out third, I left the credit card on the table for 10 minutes and no one came. The Issan Sausage snack was salty - initial flavors reminded me of Vietnamese flavors but just didn't work for our palette. The oyster dish was ok but again, very salty. The hummus was bland and the oxtail added no flavor or texture. They tried to add crunch with the chickpeas but they felt like bothersome flossing issues to be dealt with later. The naan was more like an under toasted pita bread and there was no flakiness. The octopus dish was ok but nothing to write home about. If you follow my reviews, I try to always give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt and I rarely give poor reviews. Unfortunately there just weren't too many positives in this dining experience. But as always, maybe the food just didn't suit our taste but will suit yours. We decided very quickly to head over to Palace Station for their pan roast.

    potato puree - buttery delicious

    I booked a dinner for a group of 14 for my best friends bachlorette in Vegas. Originally it was 16, then one girl backed out because she ended up having surgery and then another. I was annoyed as I kept having to talk to the event lady to change the amount of girls and she was not very responsive. It would be days and i would double text, call, e-mail etc. She would finally respond a week or two later, then when i had to change it down to 14, she stopped responding. And again calling, voicemails, e-mails, texting. I was getting a bit frustrated and felt like i was being a pest. Finally the VIP responded saying she went out for a family emergency and he could help me. He was very responsive, within a day! Much better. We got the set hungry wold menu which is $145 a person and a welcome cocktail for $14 a person. We just sat down and the server was giving everyone our welcome cocktail and she spills the last drink all over the bride and a little on me. But mostly on the bride and her hair that we just got done at the salon prior to dinner. I know she felt terrible. And it was human error/accident. Multiple staff came quickly with towels and she apologized like 20x. My bestie was a bit upset as she just got her hair done and some of the drink got onto her LV bag as well. Luckily, it was a light drink, so no stain on her white dress. But she back and shoulder was soaked and sticky. The server was mortified and asked if she can get her a drink on the house, but at the time my friend did not feel like drinking, she was just upset and frustrated at the situation. She did end up bringing some henessy out for her but she did not drink much of it. And at the end, she gave the whole table a shot as well. However, everyone was pretty full from the yummy food that they couldnt drink it. My other friend and I ended up drinking like 4 each. Did not want to go to waste. I think maybe the restaurant should have comp'd the bride's meal off or even $50 off or something for this accident since the shots were not really used well by the crowd. Now onto the food, that part 5 stars!! The shellfish charcuterie was so good. It had fresh oysters that were decent size. A good amount of lobster that tasted bomb! And some crab dip. I also enjoyed the oxtail hummus. Main course was either new york strip or fish. A couple of girls said the steak was medium rare and they like theirs more cooked and the server never asked them how they want it done. Everyone just had it medium rare. As for my fish, i loved it. it was crispy outside, flaky inside. The pommes puree potato was so buttery and soft. Loved it! There was so much food. We ended up eating it as left overs in our big airbnb the next day. We were so full after. Yummy!

    As Vegas Locals, this place NEVER disappoints. The service, the food, the atmosphere. Everything is top tier. The DRY AGED DORADE was the best fish I've ever had. Perfect balance of spice ,citrus and butter. We ordered it with an orange wine and we were in heaven . The oxtail hummus was melt in your mouth delicious. Also Last night we were next to a table with a screaming baby and I was impressed with how management handled the situation and respected us . They treated us with a free mini dessert and a dessert drink. We will continue to come back!

    Can I give this place a 10 out of five star? I haven't had such good food like this in a long time. This place completely blew my mind. The food here is incredibly creative, beautifully plated, and packed with flavor. The portions are small plates, but it's actually perfect because it lets you try a lot of different dishes from the menu. Hummus - 5/5 my daughter could not stop eating this. She loves the crispy chickpeas and the oxtail with soft pita bread. Octopus with squid ink - 5/5 Tender and flavorful with great depth. Agnolotti - 4/5: in another restaurant this would probably be a five out of five, but because it's competing against so many other amazing dishes on the menu I had to give it a 4 Spring Mountain Sour cocktail - 10/5 I must, must, must order this again. I've never had a cocktail this delicious in my life. I love beet juice and yuzu, and this drink absolutely knocked it out of the ballpark. Roasted cabbage - 10/5 Surprisingly one of the standout dishes of the night. I love roasted veggies. Japanese sweet potato - 4/5 if you lost your potato, cream fresh that is made perfectly with a subtle strawberry flavor, sprinkled with Chinese sausage. Such a creative dish. Foie gras 5/5: this is as good as foie gras gets. There was a small amount of the jelly on the side, which was the perfect amount to balance the richness. Black pepper honey pork flank 5/5 with banana purée. Such an interesting combination and very memorable. Desserts: these desserts need their own section for review. Do not say no to dessert. If they rotate the desserts on the menu, I need to come back and try every single one. I've been eyeing the peanut butter ice cream sundae but it wasn't on the menu when I came. Mango passionfruit dessert with rice ice cream 5/5: We loved the white chocolate coconut pieces. The mango mousse was shaped like little macarons and had the perfect balance of tartness and sweetness. The fresh mango pieces were diced so perfectly that whoever cut them has serious knife skills. Vietnamese coffee ice cream 5/5: there's a lot of Vietnamese influence on this menu, which I really appreciated since I'm Vietnamese myself. It feels like elevated Vietnamese inspired flavors with creativity. I especially loved the chocolate on the bottom with coffee beans. Baked Alaska 5/5: Very beautiful presentation. They light the dessert on fire in front of you. It was a bit alcoholic, so I'm glad we ordered another dessert for the kids. Every dish was plated beautifully and showed so much creativity. This restaurant really impressed me with its innovation. It feels like dining at a Michelin-level restaurant but in a more casual and comfortable environment. Next time I'm back in Vegas, I absolutely want to come back. The food is craveable, unique, and memorable. (It was a us our server Ruby was super helpful and friendly) Their menu is also one of the best I've seen with the sketching. Creativity here is out of this world.

    Oxtail hummus
    Sarin P.

    Honestly SHOCKED at how long it took me to dine here. Made reservations last night for hubby's birthday. Our meal was AMAZING. We literally transcended into a superb gastronomical experience. I really do enjoy "family-style" dining, it allows you to try so many items off a menu. We ordered about 4 plates, which was enough to preview the menu but it left us planning our return!! Highlights: - Blue fin tuna taco, I believe it had a foie gras base, which elevated the umami qualities - Oxtail hummus, reminded me of my childhood, loved the meat! - Agnolotti, it seems they rotate the ingredients based on what is in season, spicy and filling to say the least, lobster was a nice touch - The heart of the ribeye was interesting, I wasn't expecting just two pieces of meat but it got the job done!!!! - Husband absolutely balled over the Vietnamese ice coffee ice cream, not going to lie it was heavenly! I was also pleasantly surprised by their cocktails, I enjoyed their take on the white negroni and old fashioned. We will, without a doubt, be back!

    What a great spot right in Chinatown in the same complex with one of my fave Thai places Lamaii. Cozy intimate feeling spot with a small but inventive menu. We decided to go with the tasting menu tonight since we hadn't been before and wanted a good sampling of what they had to offer. It did not disappoint. Not a single dud on that menu. Faves were the Oyster Duo, Octopus, Foie Gras and the Por Flank. Every single dish was flavorful and well seasoned. The service was outstanding and attentive with one tiny hiccup, not big enough to take a star away. I had specifically noted on our reservation that it was our Anniversary and it would have been nice if it was recognized but was not. Wasn't looking for any freebies but would have been a bit more special if mentioned. Not end of the world but a bit disappointing. All in all will be back to try our favorites again on the a la carte menu.

    We came on a Friday around 5 pm and ordered the tasting menu. We really enjoyed it! The dishes were all very creative. There was a large variety of cuisines it took inspiration from, made better by combining them. The restaurant was more casual than I expected. Lots of families, casually dressed and fairly noisy inside. It seems like a majority of the tables around us were ordering à la carte rather than tasting menu, but I can't speak to how that menu is as we just did tasting menu.

    Seabass for 2

    This place has been on my list for a while and I got a chance to check it out while I was visiting family. I made a reservation for a Friday night and we were seated pretty quickly. It was dark in the main room but we were seated in a side room that had more light and it had a better vibe for a meal with family. The staff and service were great! They were very attentive and kept our water glasses full which was desperately needed for our meal. I had a sip of my sister's cocktail which was called Only Figs ($18). We enjoyed this. You could taste the fig and it wasn't too sweet. What we ordered: Oxtail hummus ($19) 5/5 It had a lot of flavor and depth from the oxtail but a little salty which was balanced out by the pita bread. Broccolini, mushroom and poached egg ($22) 2/5 Nothing special, just expensive broccoli. Japanese sweet potato ($16) 0/5 It was incredibly salty. Japanese potatoes are so amazing alone so I expected it to be elevated for the price but this was just terrible. Imagine putting the all the fixings on a baked potato but on a sweet potato instead and taking away all of the good stuff (natural sweetness and flavor). New Zealand Venison Tartare ($24) 3/5 It was okay. I think it was missing some brightness. Not memorable. Black Pepper Honey Pork Copa ($39) 4/5 The texture reminded me of Korean Bossam. You could taste the Vietnamese influence with the sweet and salty fish sauce. I enjoyed the flavors but others didn't. They thought it was too salty. Golden Tilefish for two (they replaced it with seabass) ($58) 2/5 You could taste the palo santo infused into the fish but it had a bitter or pungent flavor which was probably from the epazote. It's something I haven't had it before but I think I would have preferred lime or yuzu for a light white fish. The fish was also dry but it did have a nice crust. Baked Alaska ($18?) 0/5 We've never had this before and didn't know what to expect but it was like eating a rum covered, icy brick of stale ice cream. I would have enjoyed an ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins instead. The contrast of textures were not pleasant and the rum was extremely overpowering. We regret no trying the other desserts instead. Overall, we enjoyed the staff, cocktail, and two dishes but we were left incredibly underwhelmed and thirsty af. I drank two bottles of water after leaving because the sodium was out of control. To put into perspective, we paid a third of the price for an amazing meal at an Izakaya down the street (the night before). I don't mind the premium prices for small plates if the food is legit but it did not hit the mark for us. Also, fyi, they don't offer any special birthday desserts. Just a birthday candle to blow out, in case you were wondering. In addition, I read online reviews saying that the food used to be better but it has declined so I would have to agree and will not be returning.

    This restaurant has been on my list for years, so I was really looking forward to finally trying it. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the hype. For two people, our bill came to $420, which set very high expectations. To make matters more disappointing, a 20% gratuity was automatically added to our bill, even though we were only a party of two. I didn't notice anything indicating that beforehand. Based on our experience, I felt the service was closer to 15% than 20%. The biggest issue was that almost every dish was overly salty. Oxtail Hummus - Probably our favorite dish. The hummus itself was flavorful and wasn't overly salty, but the naan was just okay. I was hoping for more texture with crispy edges. Bánh Cuốn - I appreciated the creativity of the dish, but the rice roll was surprisingly hard and chewy in the center when bánh cuốn should be soft throughout. The sauce was also very salty. Wood Fired Lumina Lamb - The lamb itself was good, but the nước chấm was extremely salty. Spanish Octopus - The octopus was cooked well, but again, it was overly salty. Snapper Tostada - Good, but nothing particularly memorable or unique flavor-wise. Rabbit Dan Dan Paccheri - I loved the perfectly al dente pasta, but the sausage was far too salty. Coal Roasted Dry-Aged Dorade - The crispy skin was excellent, but overall the dish didn't wow me. Oysters - The raw oysters had interesting flavors but leaned salty. The grilled oyster was my favorite of the oyster selections. The staff was genuinely friendly, and I appreciated that they were attentive about clearing and replacing our plates throughout the meal. However, the pacing of the meal really slowed down halfway through. We were there for almost two hours, and our dessert took at least 20 minutes to arrive. In fact, our check was brought to the table before our dessert, which felt odd. Las Vegas has an incredible dining scene with so many amazing restaurants. For a meal that cost $420 for two people, I expected something memorable. Instead, most of the dishes were overwhelmingly salty, the pacing was slow, and the overall experience simply didn't justify the price. I really wanted to love this place but I left feeling disappointed.

    Great Madeira
    Shawna D.

    I was so excited to try the chefs tasting menu with wine pairing and it did not disappoint! The supplemental foie gras and lamb belly with a Madeira it was absolutely delicious. We loved every course and our creative wine steward brought interesting and unique wines to pair with the excellent food. Service was outstanding and our birthday girl felt especially celebrated. The ambience was a little loud but the music was lowered upon our request so we could hear each other. The chef came out to the dining area to observe guests which showed he truly cared. I loved the experience but the price is too high for me to do it often. It's a perfect special occasion restaurant though!!

    Gin based cocktail with 2 types of vermouth. Petal to the Metal.

    Got a table for 1 here on a Monday night with no wait. Truly a 5/5 experience. I'll be thinking about this one for a while. Food: Absolutely mind blowing. Some of the best flavours I've had in weeks and I just came from new York and Toronto. Oxtail hummus: was so so so good. The flavour of the oxtail gave the hummus such an incredible depth of flavour. The crispy chickpeas gave the perfect crunch to the rest of the softness of the dish. Pork copa: absolutely unreal. There was so much going on yet you could pick out each flavour since they each have their time in the spotlight. Nothing overshadowing anything. The pork itself is cooked like a Thai pork jowl dish - great char. Super refreshing cilantro and onion salad on top. The puree was nice. And the sauce is a sweet Nuoc mam. The sesame the sprinkle gives a wonderful aftertaste as you finish your bite. Petal to the Metal: way too strong for me and I didn't like it. Service: was really good. Super friendly waiter. He's the one who recommended the dishes I ate. He said it was his first month here and he'd only worked in pubs prior. Thanks for the recos whoever you were. Ambiance: upscale but they didn't turn me away in my airplane fit. Probably a good date night spot or a good place to take clients out.

    Is walk-in available?

    YES

    Is there a dress code?

    No. It's casual

    Do they give discounts to military and vets?

    Yes

    Do you have to have a reservation or do they take walk-ins?

    reservations highly recommended. small space and gets full!

    Do you have to have a reservation?

    Absolutely

    Does the restaurant offer corkage?

    Yes. Not sure if there is a charge

    Do you take reservations?

    Yes, they take reservations on Open Table.

    Has anybody had their burger there and if so how is it?

    I didn't have it but 2 people in my party had it and they both said it was phenomenal

    Is there still a seared foie gras dish available? Either as part of an entree or by itself? And only for dinner or other meals too?

    Unfortunately, as New York's ban of Foie takes effect, the dark we sourced from is closing. Until we find a farm with the reputation that Hudson Valley had, we will not be carrying Seared Foie on the menu. Currently we do have a Four and Chicken… 

    Is this a good option for my 21st bday dinner? I'm looking for good food, fun ambiance, suitable to bring a table of 12, not overly priced?

    Absolutely!! I would say your best local option . The private dining room is beautiful and seats up to 30. Menus are customizable the food and drinks are amazing !

    Is the bone marrow dumplings only served with the $125 tasting menu? Why don't I see that item listed on the regular dinner menu?

    Unfortunately, they are from a previous menu and no longer offered currently. We are offering a Duck Confit and Sweet Potato Dumpling on this menu, and it is delicious!! May we assist you with a reservation?

    What's the price on the tasting menu as of 2019?

    Katy, our current tasting menu is 7 courses for $125/person. There is an optional wine pairing $75/person as well. Please let us know if we can answer anything else for you, or book a reservation soon! Thank you for inquiring.

    Is it kid friendly?

    I wouldn't say it's unfriendly. It's not kid focused. I doubt they have a kid's menu. I would say if your kids are adventurous eaters then do it!

    What's the best thing to try for Happy Hour?

    If it is your thing... the beef carpaccio is outstanding!!!!

    Is this safe for someone with a shelfish or gluten allergy?

    I have a seafood allergy, so that's one of my biggest concerns. Having worked in resort/casino restaurants, the kitchen staff is very capable; so they can accommodate. In fact, I just did their 7-course tasting, and they shuffled out some seafood… 

    Do you guys even have chicken on your menu or other vegetarian option other then the mushrooms?

    Hi Zach We always rotate proteins but currently have 7 vegetarian options

    Are there vegan options?

    Stacy, We do have vegan options on our menu, and many dishes that can become vegan when… 

    Would/could this be a spot to do a company holiday party?

    Absolutely . Email us info@sparrowandwolflv.com

    Is this a bar? Or are kids allowed. I have a 5month old

    Hi Amanda . We are a restaurant/ cocktail bar . Absolutely, Children are welcome during dinner hours . Thank you

    Is there a Happy Hour?

    At this moment, we do not Lillian. But give us about 2 weeks, and we will have an announcement regarding the Chef's Hour (HH) Launch! Thank you for asking!

    WOW! It's been a minute since I've been to the Rio and explored.

This is such a cool bar on property at the Rio. It's a very Brazilian vibe in here and just so cool. The lounge seating is absolutely beautiful. I just got a gin and tonic, but next time I come back here, definitely grabbing one of their tropical cocktails which looked so good. There was live entertainment when we were here, too. Such a cool spot. Would definitely come back here again!

Adhering to the Brazil vibe, it has a gold jaguar climbing the bar and a very chique vibe with pops of gold and patterned seat upholstery. And it's a perfectly convenient stop for a drink when meeting others in the lobby to leave for dinner. Bartender Christian is as friendly as all the staff at the Rio and took great care of us. The cocktail game is real and we had some excellent, beautiful drinks. There was a live singer some nights. (Lapa & Luckley's have happy hours a few days a week) Also, I don't know how often this happens, but while in the casino we were given a buy one get one coupon for drinks here! But be sure to tip on your total before the discount ;)

They have a wide selection of drinks that seem to be infused type drinks. There was a couple glitches, this is why our review is three stars. The bar was not crowded at all. It was us and another group of four. Our bartender gave us the menus and kind of disappeared. We asked for a photo and she said well when I catch up, I will do that for you. As stated there was only another group of four and two bartenders. She was over with them as if they were friends talking to them the entire time. She finally came around and gave us our drinks and offered to take our picture, but by then we had already taken pictures. We had the Crimson drink, which was very good. It had watermelon, flavoring watermelon squares and watermelon flavored Red Bull. I ordered Diet Coke and the first one was horrible. It tasted like it was mixed with something. She was kind enough to pour it out and bring me another one, it unfortunately also had some weird kind of taste. I recommend this place do a deep cleaning. The bar smelled like hot melted metal. The the staff here had no personality whatsoever and was borderline rude and not taking care of the customers. It was a very quiet day and we should've been served with a smile and better attitude. Sorry, this place missed the Mark.

They have a few table and chairs around but we just sat at the bar to order. They offer food as well but we had just come from dinner so focused on the drinks.

Took the time to explain their process for making the ingredients used in their cocktails. Walked us through everything as he made our drinks. Cocktails were fabulous! In addition to the drinks, the atmosphere and concept is really cool. It's an immersive space with some jungle animation happening behind the bar. And to add to it all, the service was top notch. Next time you're in the arts district of Las Vegas, stop in and check them out. I'm not sure if reservations are required so check on that beforehand. Don't miss this spot!

Our waitress was super friendly and really encouraged us to try some things because we really weren't sure about the menu. She was super attentive and we really appreciated that. The reason I'm giving this a three star review (and I feel bad doing so) is because I genuinely hated the drinks. Like viscerally hated. The menu really was a struggle as someone who's a gin drinker. There wasn't a lot on the menu which I'm often used to, but the drinks were either cloyingly sweet or incredibly tart and bitter. There seems to lack of balance and there were a lot of really weird flavors that really didn't seem to go together. Now I can't speak on every single drink on the menu, but I did try a couple that are either premixed or on tap and I really struggled with them. I was excited about the ginger drink, and I was given a taste of their homemade ginger beer, and it felt like it was going to burn a hole through my stomach. Which is typically not my reaction to anything gender flavored. I just think the balance of flavors are not quite right and so certain things overpowered other flavors. I ended up really not wanting anything on the menu because everything was so rum based and I really don't like rum, so they offered to make me a cocktail with some flavors that I liked. They told me they had passionfruit, which I was really excited about. It usually is a really nice combination of sweet but not too sweet and good fruity flavor. I had a passionfruit gin drink made, and it was absolutely gorgeous coming out. Unfortunately, what I didn't know was that the passionfruit that they have is on the very sour and tart side (contained by a staff member later), which has never been my experience with passionfruit in the past. One of the things that I told the waitress was that I really don't like sour. I like citrus but not something that is so overly sour that it tastes like I'm eating a warhead. And the drink that was made for me had both lemon and this really tart passionfruit to the point all I could taste was this awful sour flavor. I felt bad and drank it and was not about to ask it off the bill because they were so kind about everything. The drink ended up only being nine dollars and I genuinely wonder if they undercharged me, but I felt a lot better that that's all I paid for it. Aesthetically it was beautiful, but it tasted horrible. I tried my friends drink, which was a play on a margarita with Mezcal, and that was also incredibly bitter and sour. I'm not someone who needs disgustingly sweet drinks, hence me not liking rum, but I do need a balance of sweetness with the other flavors. My friend thought her drink was OK, but she said she wouldn't order it again. I would definitely give this location another shot if I could figure out a drink that would work, but it seems their drinks either are very sour or very sweet and I'm hoping that at some point they will be able to find a good balance between the two.

It checked all the boxes: high reviews, off the strip, craft cocktail offerings. When we got there the bar was relatively empty but it was a Wednesday evening. The staff was very attentive throughout the night. The menu wasn't very large but we were able to find a couple things in addition to drinks that we wanted to try. We shared the Vietnamese meatballs for appetizer which were a really good size and you really only needed 2. For entree we ordered the Lomo Saltado. The beef was lean and tender. The sauce was so good and flavorful. For drinks I got the lychee bloom. From first sip, I was a huge fan. Sweet and didn't lack any lychee taste. The presentation was also beautiful. My husband ordered the Philosopher's rum which he really enjoyed. The bartender was also trying out a new recipe of a key lime cocktail which is one of my husbands favorites. He loved the cocktail so much he ordered a second. We already frequent Chinatown, but this will definitely be added to our regular rotation. We're planning a trip back already to try more drinks and menu items.

    Drinks: 4/5 Service: 5/5…read moreAmbiance: 4/5 My friend and I were looking for a bar nearby and found this one in Chinatown! Parking is a bit tough in front of the establishment, but there is a lot of stalls located in this shopping center. Apparently, they take reservations in addition to walk-ins. Cool spot to check out as it is very dark and intimate with a pool table and lots of booths, tables, and high top seating. Good place to come with friends to chill. We only ordered drinks since we came from dinner. I ordered the lychee bloom and charanda's incantation. Our server said that the 2 I ordered were their sweetest cocktails. My friend ordered the matcha tonic. All cocktails were good but the matcha tonic was shockingly very good. It tasted super refreshing and I would order that again! Only downside of this place was on the night we went they told us they ran out of a lot of ingredients to make some of their cocktails so their menu ended up being limited. I would come here again to try their food which sounded good as I read them off the menu. Definitely worth checking this place out!

    Marisa Cocina & Cocktails is the place to be in Las Vegas for brunch/food in general…read more Food: chicken and French toast, chicken and waffles, eggs, and the hot sausage was really tasty and seasoned. The margaritas were strong and so good. Service: the service was average as the place was packed. However our waiter made sure we were good in his section. They do need more waiters due to the extreme business of the resturant. Ambiance: the place is fire, energetic, lively, and full of fun. It's spacious with a live DJ keeping the music and vibez going! There's an area for pictures including 360 photo booth etc. My overall score is 4.5/5.0 will be back for sure!!! Score would've been higher if the service was quicker.

    Mariposa Brunch - Las Vegas…read more If you're looking for a brunch spot with great energy, Mariposa definitely delivers. The vibe was amazing! There was a live DJ, a hype man keeping the crowd engaged, and an overall fun atmosphere that made it feel like a party. The food was delicious--think soul food brunch with flavorful dishes--and the drinks were just as good. My biggest piece of advice: make a reservation. If you don't have one, be prepared to wait. We were initially told the wait would be about 45 minutes, but after waiting that long, we were told we still had to wait until all guests with reservations had been seated. Since reservations kept arriving, it felt like we might never get a table. After speaking with management and going back and forth, we were finally seated after about an hour. Once seated, it also took a while for our food to arrive, but the quality of the food, drinks, and overall experience made it worth it. Just know that Mariposa is off the Las Vegas Strip, so you'll need to venture away from the Strip to get there. Overall, if you make a reservation ahead of time, you'll likely have a much smoother experience. The food, drinks, and atmosphere are absolutely worth checking out.
