    3 taco combination plate.  Aguas frescas beverage included with the combo, but not pictured.

    Plenty of parking available in a private lot. It's charming, well organized and the staff I interacted with were kind and helpful. We ordered food from the Café and dined in their indoor dining area. A salsa bar and condiment station along with a wall mounted TV is part of the dining area. My taco combo plate was very good. The frescas con leche was good and refreshing. We enjoyed our food selections very much. I like the fresh produce selection. Seasonal produce options are reasonably priced and typically less expensive than chain markets.

    absolutely love Cardenas Market on S. Buffalo -- it's one of those places that instantly feels like home. The store is always clean, well-organized, and full of color and life. The produce section is fresh and reasonably priced, with everything you need for authentic Hispanic cooking. The bakery is pure heaven -- from conchas to bolillos, everything smells amazing and tastes even better. The carnicería (meat department) always has great cuts and friendly staff ready to help, and I love the ready-made soup kits for quick, delicious home-cooked meals. It's a one-stop shop for everything from fresh tortillas to spicy salsas, and every visit makes me miss it a little more now that I'm away. If you're in Vegas and craving real, flavorful Hispanic ingredients, this is the place to go!

    Chilaquiles!!

    It doesn't get any more authentic than this!! Cardenas is the grocery store I used to go to back home in LA, so it's giving that familiar vibe and feel. But the food that's prepared to order is FIRE!! It blows a lot of these restaurants out of the water because of the flavor alone. IYKYK. The service and store staff are very friendly, helpful, and attentive. Glad they brought LA here to Vegas!

    We like to get vegetables here and fruit when it's on sale but you have to eat it quick because it doesn't last as long as other grocery stores. The cosina has greasy food that will make your stomach upset and have a heart attack.

    Two dozen roses for 12.99 each. Swing!

    Cardenas not only has a huge produce section that love, they usually have a beautiful selection of flowers reasonably priced too. Love this place

    THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE BAKERY. I tried calling customer service AND the store multiple times, and NO ONE answers. The phone just rings forever, so at this point I'm leaving a review. DO NOT BUY THE TRES LECHES CAKE. Maybe I got a bad one, but it was EXTREMELY DRY and honestly just NOT GOOD. That is NOT how tres leches is supposed to be. I literally wasted $30. I should've just gone to La Bonita instead. Save your money and go somewhere else. My son was very upset, as this was his birthday cake... I also have a video that shows how dry it is, but for some reason it won't let me post.

    I had a big smile on my face walking around Cardenas Markets that one of the friendly staff asked if I liked the place. I said, "I love it! It makes me happy!" You'll find a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables with the best price. I've never been to a much more affordable place for fresh produce anywhere else in Vegas. It's also the only place I've been that sells banana leaves for rice cakes, tamales, etc! It's clean, bright, spacious and very organized. I thoroughly enjoyed browsing through different kinds of spices, corn chips, marinated meats, sauces, drinks, beans, etc. You can also get authentic and ready to eat Mexican food at Cocina. You can also to eat there. The bakery is amazing! You can get Mexican sweet breads, cakes, flans, and freshly made tortillas. Check Cardenas Markets out hungry folks!

Considering the convention traffic, I'm guessing they wanted to have options for business dinners. ‍ If you're going for a date or with friends. I suggest Rojo - it's loud but it's a vibe. The food: Mostly the same menu as the old locale, but why mess with near perfection? A few adds - the brown butter cauliflower (very good; would love a pinch of flaky salt) and the basque cheesecake. The croquetas got a new sneaker! If this is your first time, you cannot miss the classic tartare, the cotton candy foie gras, or Neptune's pillow. For a bit of extra fun, try the bison carpaccio. The service: impeccable as always. We sat with a server named Sunday who not only knew the menu backwards and forwards, but gave the exact right amount of pomp and circumstance. (Order the bison and find out what I mean.) Shout out to Kirin (food runner) and George (Sommelier) for pride in their craft and adding to the experience. Parking: this is the only real drag. If you're going on a Sphere concert night, expect to pay $30 for event parking. Take an uber or suck it up - you cannot miss this meal.

My boyfriend and I used to come to the Sahara location almost weekly, and most of the staff knew us there. They are seriously an A+ crew, especially Sunday. Five stars to the amazing Bazaar team. That said, this review is really about my disappointment with some of the menu changes. First, they removed the oxtail consommé, and I'm not exaggerating when I say I still dream about that soup. Second, the caprese salad used to be my favorite bite in all of Vegas, and I eat at all kinds of restaurants around town, so that's saying something. But they no longer make it with dehydrated tomatoes. Now they just slice cherry tomatoes in half, and it's lost that perfectly blended flavor. The tomato taste is way too overpowering now. The A5 Philly cheesesteak has also changed. There's noticeably more cheese than before, which is a bit much for my taste. All that said, the service is still top notch and the food is still good overall. I'm just genuinely sad that, with these changes, it's no longer my favorite restaurant in town.

It serves…read moreclassic backyard style BBQ with massive portions, high quality meats, and an atmosphere that makes it a true standout. 3 Meat Combo with Brisket, Pulled Pork, and Pork Ribs (5/5): The brisket is the star of the show, coming out incredibly tender, generously portioned, and perfectly marbled without being overly fatty. The pork ribs are wonderfully juicy and packed with deep flavor, pairing nicely with the complimentary sweet BBQ sauce even though they do not strictly need it. Unlike most places where the pulled pork dries out, this one stays remarkably moist and savory throughout. Chili (4/5): A very unique side that is much thinner and more watery than a traditional chili, holding a texture closer to a thin spaghetti sauce. Despite the looser consistency, it is absolutely packed with a variety of delicious smoked meats in every single bite. Mac and Cheese (5/5): An exceptional side dish and a clear favorite of the meal. It's incredibly rich, creamy, and distinctively flavored with sharp cheddar, which gives it a much bolder and more satisfying punch than standard restaurant mac and cheese. Corn Bread (5/5): This side functions almost like a dessert, boasting an incredibly sweet, vanilla cake like taste. The high level of sweetness provides a nice contrast to the intense salt, smoke, and savory flavors of the massive meat plate. Logistics Tip: Parking is limited but manageable between the two adjacent lots, and there is a clean restroom on site. To help beat the intense heat, they generously provide complimentary bottles of ice cold water. Keep in mind that they hosted live music on the late Saturday morning that we went. While it adds a fun, energetic backyard vibe, it can get incredibly loud and makes chatting with friends difficult, so you may want to bring ear protection or plan your arrival time accordingly.

First thing's first: they do NOT play about portions... you get hella food with each combo Everything was on point, the meats were flavorful, tender, and cooked right. The sides held their own too, which always matters. We even stopped in the meat market before leaving and grabbed some chicken and beef links, some frog legs, and a few bones for the dogs The live music was a nice touch and really added to the vibe, and even though they were busy, the wait time honestly wasn't bad at all. Only thing I wasn't really feeling were the sauces, they just weren't my favorite. But everything else hit, so it didn't even matter much. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the mood for some solid BBQ

The moment I walked in, I loved how bright, clean, and modern the space felt. It has that casual, welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay and enjoy your meal slowly. The staff were super friendly and attentive from start to finish, which made the experience even better. We decided to try some of their newer menu items -- the Chicken & Sausage Plate ($15.99) and the Picanha Plate ($16.99). Both were absolutely delicious. The meats were grilled perfectly, juicy, and flavorful with that signature Brazilian-style seasoning. The Picanha especially stood out -- tender, rich, and perfectly cooked with just the right amount of char. For sides, the Brazilian cheese bread was warm, soft, and slightly chewy -- such a comforting bite. I also really enjoyed the pasta side, which was creamy and surprisingly tasty. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared and balanced. Overall, B:STAKÉ is one of those places where you can feel the care behind every dish. Between the great flavors, friendly service, and clean atmosphere, I can definitely see why my friend recommended it.

Once I stepped foot inside and saw a completely packed house with an hour and a half wait and barely standing room at the bar, I knew it was worth whatever wait or process I had to go through. Ultimately I lucked out as an individual. I was able to snag a bar top seat pretty quickly and had I known then I was sitting down to what was going to be one of the best meals of my life, I would have been visibly more excited. Not only was the service absolutely top notch, the people and the regulars there were extremely friendly and outgoing. The vibe was perfect, a strange mix of a place that felt like it had been there for 200 years yet was somehow high energy and vibey. From a killer cocktail recommendation to one of the best steaks I've had in my life and coming from Oklahoma City, where I work a mile away from the stockyards and can get great quality fresh beef six ways from Sunday, that's saying a lot. I usually despise most things truffle but if I was forced to eat that truffle mac and cheese every day for the rest of my life I would consider it a life well lived. While I would have never ordered it on my own, a customer next to me recommended the porn star cocktail and I have to say it was also one of the most delicious things I've ever had in my life. Ten out of ten, top notch experience. Would recommend. Will be back every time I'm in Vegas, no questions asked.

The atmosphere is always beautiful and lively without taking away from the dining experience, and the service has consistently been great. My dad ordered his favorite, the filet mignon, and he absolutely loved it as always. My mom had a ribeye steak, and the kids kept it simple with burgers and fries, which they enjoyed. For appetizers, we ordered two crab cakes, calamari, and the lamb cigars. The crab cakes were really good, and everything was great for sharing with the table. We also ordered mashed potatoes and mac and cheese as sides. I went with the Caesar salad, and it was delicious! Personally, I would have loved just a tiny bit more dressing, but it was still fresh, flavorful, and something I would definitely order again. One thing we really appreciate when dining out as a family is having a Spanish-speaking server, since that's how my parents feel most comfortable ordering and asking questions. We always request one when we come here. Unfortunately, that request wasn't able to be accommodated this time, but our server was still incredibly kind, patient, and attentive throughout the entire meal. I wish I could remember her name! She had gauges in her ears and took great care of us. Her back server, Jose, was also excellent and very attentive. Between the two of them, we felt well taken care of the entire time. Another nice touch is that Echo & Rig always provides a complimentary birthday dessert, which makes the celebration feel a little more special. My dad had a wonderful birthday dinner, everyone enjoyed their food, and we had a great time together. We've celebrated here before and will definitely continue coming back. Great food, beautiful atmosphere, and consistently attentive service. Thank you for helping make another one of my dad's birthdays special!
