9 Best Mexican Restaurants in Las Vegas

“we found this little gem on the drive toward Albuquerque. Its located right in the plaza of Las Vegas, the hospitality was great, very welcoming. My favorite thing besides the food was the community in this space, everyone knew each other and it is family owned. thanks Andrea!!!!! ❣️ we will definitely be stopping by every time we pass through LV, NM.“

“Good food, amazing service 🔥“

“We were on vacation and checking out Google Maps for places to eat. The menu looked like it had something for everyone so we gave it a go.

When we got there at almost lunch on a Saturday there was a wait. We received a beeper. The wait, surprisingly was only 15 minutes.

Along with a huge diverse menu, they serve Starbucks coffee, fresh baked goods (donuts, small cheesecakes, and other delights) as well as bags of nice size fresh pressed and cooked tortillas. Some folks came in just for the coffee, baked good and tortillas.

Our waiter was Taylor (if the receipt is correct.) He was most helpful and answered all of our questions about the menu. Service here was prompt. We did have bit of trouble finding him for the bill but I think it was because that place was packed. Start (with wait time) to finish was just about an hour. Cash payment for the bill gave us a lower price than using a credit card.

We ordered a chicken fajita taco salad and a chicken/cheese burrito. The taco salad came with salsa which was too spicy for me so I skipped it. The salad had enough flavor. No skimping on the toppings. I would have to say this is one of the best fajita taco salads I have ever had and if we lived closer than 1,000 miles away I'd be in big trouble because I would eat here all the time.

My husband's burrito was tasty but a little too spicy for me.

We ordered what they call an eclair - it's basically a Long John with vanilla pudding on the inside and topped with chocolate frosting for $9. Some call it a Bismark (generally round) and the inside Bavarian cream. I did ask if the inside was homemade there. Yes, it is. We did not eat it there but waited until our hotel. We shared it. It was soft, delicious and that cream....yes I can tell it's homemade.

If we are ever in the area again I would stop here.

P.S. The atmosphere got a knock off because it is noisy and not many places to sit to wait for a table.“

“This place has it all. good food, excellent staff and decent prices. I definitely recommend the Hillcrest Restaurant“

“I went to get my favorite bean, green chile Chicharrón burrito and it was so delicious 🤤! I’m so glad I got an extra one for later. Yum!“

“Wow! Wow! Wow! Saved my appetite for this place, and I was blown away. This was my favorite childhood dish. “The Navajo” was exactly what I’d dreamed of for years! You have yourself a regular customer! Thank you for your great service. So happy to support a family business too! Santana-the owner(I think) couldn’t have been more personable and great to talk to. Thank you everyone for a fun experience.“

“Loved the burnt tacos and pozole.“

“We were passing thru town and stopped at the hotel (reasonable & clean!! Thunderbird) and walked across the street for a few drinks! Huge dance floor! A fun, local tavern with friendly bilingual bartender/owner! Great friendly service and we felt like we were locals. It was nice to just walk across the street and not drive somewhere. Micheladas as well :)“
