Love the food! Perfect evening with outstanding flavors. Empanadas de atun and spicy wontons. Perfect spice without sacrificing flavors.

Ive been here a fee years ago and came back to try it again. I love this place and the food is so delicious. If you are looking for a place to go to this is it. Make sure you make a reservation, this place gets busy. The restaurant is inside the Cosmo hotel. First time getting the oxtail and it exceeded my expectations. All there food is super yummy. This soup is on top of my list. I can eat it everyday. I would most definitely recommend this place for sure. I can't wait to go back. Service was excellent and the vibe is good. Easily to talk and its not loud inside at all but it gets busy. Make that reservation now. read more

Beautifully decorated room in the lively Cosmopolitan. Service was good, some staff a bit curt but everyone knew the menu well. We were seated at a six-person U-shaped table, which made it hard to converse across, but that was the only real gripe. The food was excellent. The salsa and guacamole were fresh and delicious. The taco de carnitas was one of the highlights of the night, tender and moist with a great chicharron topping. The shrimp in black garlic and chile sauce was an outstanding bite with deep, complex flavor. The Caesar salad with Spanish anchovies was divine. The coconut ceviche was another favorite and genuinely surprising. If you did not read the menu you would swear it was fish, with just a light coconut finish that perfectly balances the citrus. The only dish I was not as excited about was the twenty vegetable fried rice, as the raw greens on top threw off the texture. I would have preferred everything cooked through, though it was still good. Overall a fantastic tasting menu and a spot worth seeking out. read more

The food left something to be desired and was a bit of a disappointment, unfortunately--despite the fact that we were ravenous after a day trip hiking in the heat. We got the dan dan mien, 18 monk noodles, chicken tacos, carnitas tacos, "when pigs fly" (bbq pork steamed buns), botana loca salad, and the spicy won tons. None of the Chinese dishes were very good... they were quite bland and the spices/seasoning among the two noodle dishes and the won tons tasted similar across the board. The bbq pork steamed buns--while nice in texture overall--were small, kind of flat, and had a filling that was more salty and soy-sauced based than the expected sweet stickiness of an authentic char siu bao. On the other hand, the tacos were decent and had much more flavorful meat than the Chinese dishes. My favorite dish of the lot was the botana loca salad, which was absolutely delicious, bright in flavor, and full of texture with crunchy jicama cubes, cucumber, avocado, heirloom cherry tomatoes, red onion, and I think crunchy coconut cream covered peanuts? The one saving grace to our meal. Overall, I wouldn't come back, except maybe for the salad. read more

Chinese and Mexican restaurant in one? Say less!!! I sat in the Mexican side of the restaurant while I watched mexican ladies make blue corn tortillas by hand. I had the blue tortillas birria quesadillas with consomé. The best!! I also had the literal best margarita ever. I saw people just coming here for the margaritas. Will definitely come back when I am in town. read more

Came in little after lunch time on a holiday weekend. Waited 25 min. But had so many open tables? Maybe for bigger groups? Medium level pop music playing. Little bit dim with red-ish lights and clear lights We're very familiar with Chinese food and have eaten Mexican before. Suggestions from waiter were too typical American: chips and salsa? Really? For a fusion place? We ordered: empanadas de Atun, quail egg Sui Mai, Quesabirria tacos, 1 nopales y queso taco, mango sticky rice. empanadas de Atun- masa was done very well, but didn't get much tuna. Quali egg- too salty, but prepared well. Quesabirria- best dish of them all. Enough meat and stuffing, Nopales taco was nice- almost mistook the cheese for some sort of meat, really heavy. Cactus was nice. Mango sticky rice was surprising as there really is no sticky rice. Not much mango either. Mango a little unripe. Overall, didn't feel like the food was fused. More like a restaurant that serves Chinese and Mexican food. I read thru the 2 suggested food groupings and they didn't suit me. I felt the suggestions were waayyy too Americanized for my taste. Maybe menu designed more for visitors from places like Idaho, Cleveland? Overall, will not be back. Too many places in Vegas to try. I'm being picky about the flavors, but overall the quality, safety, plating we're all done well. read more

This place is so good!! The nopales tacos were my favorite. I stayed at the Cosmopolitan for a conference and went there 3times during my stay The first night we had the camarones al mojo de ajo negro, pork ribs and Dan Dan Mian. The 2nd day I just ordered 3 nopales tacos to go. They were still fresh and not soggy when I got back to the room. 3rd time I tried the sopes de chorizo con papa (they might seem tiny but they are filling and so damn delicious) and of course I had a few nopales tacos, too. I was able to buy some of their tortillas and they held pretty well during the flight. I dont remember the name of our first bartender but he was really friendly. The 3rd time I was helped by Tina who was also very friendly and attentive and she made me an read more

Hearing about raving reviews of the Food Court at the Cosmopolitan, we can across China Poblano, which was a Chinese/ Mexican cuisine fusion. The place was clean and nicely decorated; friendly service. Ordered the Quesabirria, When Pigs fly Pork Steamed buns, Kao Lao Lao, and topped our meal with the Mango Sticky Rice Dessert. Everything was made fresh on the spot, food was tasty. The Mango Sticky Rice dessert was a surprise! I was expecting the traditional sticky rice and mango, but love their concept of rice ice cream, fresh mangos and rice Krispies. It was delicious! Will definitely come back to try other dishes. Highly recommend if ever in Vegas! read more

This location came as a recommendation from a friend. The chef is a James Beard winning chef so I knew it would be worth it. We ordered chips and salsa which was not complimentary. $6 for it but it was so good and so were the chips which seemed homemade. My daughter ordered dumplings which didn't look like enough but I ordered the caldo with the chipotle on the side. Good thing cause it was spicy. It was hearty. Chicken, garbanzo beans, carrots, sliced avocado on top, it was delicious. Which it came with bread or a tortilla but it was great. Too much for me so I shared with my daughter. We ordered the mango sticky rice for dessert. This is where I was disappointed but didn't prompt me to leave a bad review. I was expecting rice, there was none. Mango was very little, a bit of mango sauce and a whole lot of whipped cream on top with toasted Rice Krispies (not the rice I was expecting) for a whopping $12 for whipped cream, a few tiny mango pieces and sauce. Don't order it you'll be disappointed. There were other dessert options. It was cool inside. Decorations were nice and was a great place for dinner overall. read more

This restaurant is located inside the Cosmopolitan hotel, opposite the Chandelier bar on the top level. It's a combination of Asian and Mexican cuisine. We went there for lunch and after a wait of 20 minutes, were let in. The food is ok. Not a lot of vegetarian options I felt. - The chips and guacamole were good. - Veggie Fried Rice was good. - Papas (veggie taco) was a bit bland for me. I only ordered one. The potato didn't have any seasoning. Could have been better. Definitely worth trying it out. The ambiance and vibe is very cool. There is another Mexican restaurant at the hotel called Amaya, which is great. read more

We had lunch here recently on Mother's Day weekend. It's very convenient since we stayed at Cosmopolitan. We had reservations for 4 adults and 2 kids at 11:30am and were seated about 10 minutes after checked in. The menu was simple however enough variety for our group. We ordered mixed items including Mexican and Chinese dishes. We enjoyed everything we ordered. Even the kids liked finished their food. Service was great. Will definitely be back next time we in town. read more

The place was popping for a Sunday night. Granted, it was mainly due to the fact that Wrestlemania was in town and so were a lot of attendees. We were seated rather quickly (only 6 of the 10 showed up) and since it was busy, we ended up sectioning off our long table so we could share with another party. I didn't know what to expect other than Chinese and Mexican fusion. The backbar honestly looked inviting, but we decided to forgo drinks since we were eating prior to an event--Gronk Beach at Marquee. For food, it was family style and we ended up getting personal options and shared ones also. Chips and salsa, with a queso option added on, quesabirria tacos, barbacoa, papa, and Ceviche con Citricos (citrus Ceviche with jicama and seabass). I loved that the menu had Chinese and Mexican food options since they had tons of options to choose from on both sides. Honestly, the portions were super tiny/tapas style, but presentation, taste, and flavor were delicious! The food came out relatively quickly and I actually enjoyed myself. I just wish the portions were a bit larger. The atmosphere was pretty lively (decor and ambiance), and staff was very attentive with the drinks and any needs we had. I'd consider returning to this spot, but note that the small plates and portions are as advertised. read more

Interesting restaurant with a cool vibe. The menu features Chinese and Mexican cuisine. I tried a Chinese noodle dish. The presentation of the meal was great and I enjoyed the combination of different flavors. If a dish is labeled as spicy, expect it to be pretty spicy. The waiters were very attentive. read more

Where Two Street Food Cultures Collide José Andrés does it again. China Poblano is one of those rare concepts that shouldn't work on paper but absolutely does; a collision of Chinese and Mexican street food under one roof, and somehow it feels completely natural. The ambiance nails it too: think bustling food market energy, equal parts Mexican lonchería and Chinese night market The menu itself is an experience, ust reading it is enough to make you hungry. We dove in headfirst. The Young Coconut Ceviche (we added shrimp) was a revelation. Fresh coconut water and citrus juices bring a brightness that makes a classic ceviche feel almost... lighter? Even the radishes were exceptional, and the teardrop peppers layered in just the right heat. Pro tip: eat this with their chile powder-seasoned chips and a few drops of the chile oil and habanero sauce the attentive staff brings to your table. The star of the meal was the Taco de Nopales y Queso, blue corn tortilla, seared queso fresco, salt-cured cactus, and toasted pumpkin seeds on top for an incredible crunch. Simple concept, flawless execution. It actually edged out the Pulpo a la Parrilla taco, which, as someone who loves octopus, I didn't expect to say. The octopus was good, just not life-changing by comparison. We closed with their signature dessert: a dark chocolate shell molded as a Xi'an warrior, filled with milk chocolate mousse, ginger ice cream, and caramelized bananas. It's a little somber, laying the warrior down on the plate and cracking him open feels like a tiny ceremony. My advice: don't eat the components separately, mix everything together. On their own, the elements feel a bit disconnected; combined, the flavors work better. Only gripe? The value. $100 for two with no alcohol is a stretch for portions this size. Worth experiencing, but go in with that expectation set. read more

Service was great. Our server was on top of it. She was friendly and attentive. If graded on service alone she gets a 5. She was also managing all the pickup orders and she kept the vibes calm even though she was doing a lot. Food was okay. Everything was so overly salty especially the oxtail soup. Very disappointing. Shumai was nothing special. Could get this better at a hole in the wall for 1/4 of the price. Everything was expensive because it's on the strip. They did have 2 hot sauces they gave us that almost redeemed it all. We just slathered the sauce on the food. Probably would not come back here. Happy eating. We didn't try any of the Hispanic food just Asian side of things. read more

I was a lone traveler on a weekday evening staying at the Cosmopolitan and I saw their Happy Hour menu on my way out to the bridge, the menu looked great with very good prices, and so decided to come back to hotel on time for HH. Happy Hour is only in bar area and they have two wide half-circle shaped bar area right by the entrance. One bar is more of Mexican vibe and the other one was open kitchen concept of Chinese dumpling bar. I was seated right away on the Chinese dumpling kitchen side and was greeted and served promptly. I'm always so impressed by common sense and quick thinking of Las Vegas strip hotel bar staff, it must be a competitive hospitality market here and they select best of the best. The gal who served me made sure I'm okay with some spices and beer choices that were under HH. I had Corona Premier ($7) and a Frijoles Taco ($5) and Chicken Lettuce boats ($7) with crispy potato shreds on top. The food was phenomenal and with this price I would definitely come back. The servers also checked on me to make sure I didnt need anything else and I was having fun even dining alone, just from the crowd at the bar and cool servers chatting with me. All customers were in great mood, that tells me a lot about the quality here. I highly recommend this place, the Chinese Mexican cuisine in one place, and they keep the menus simple and authentic, no fusion stuff. Each menu is true to their own cuisine. read more

First off- this is not fusion. You can order Chinese or Mexican or both. My experience was limited to take out, however the vibe looked pretty chill inside.It's really fun to watch the workers make the dumplings while you wait for your food. I tried the 20 vegetable fried rice. Wait time was about 20 minutes. The woman taking my order was very polite and even asked about my MGM card and added points for me. The rice was a nice size and I was able to share it with my husband. I recommend asking for the chili oil. Very good. Solid dish and packed full of veggies. read more

Meh. Our last visit (ever) to China Poblano was last summer in July 2025. We thought that we would dine at CP since we had a decent experience two years prior. We put our name in and waited about 20-25 minutes for a table. Overall, we were just very disappointed with this entire experience/visit. We felt the food was overpriced, the portions were small, and the service was poor. We observed our server was responsible for multiple tables in our area, but we felt he paid us the least attention. It felt like centuries had passed before he would check on us, when food was dropped off, and in trying to get his attention for the check. We noticed he lingered particular long at a neighbouring table talking with this couple. In the end, we left hungry, disappointed, and very annoyed. BOTTOM LINE A lot can change in a two years, and this will be our last visit to China Poblano. We stopped at Secret Pizza following our meal. read more

Our small group came by on a Sunday evening around 6pm. Put our names in the busy queue and waited about an hour for a table. Nice looking restaurant with unique decor. Smaller menu than I was expecting, but seemed interesting. Ended up going with the Quail Egg Siu Mai and the 18 Monk with beef. Our entrees took awhile to get to us with some of us getting halfway through our meals before others even got theirs. The Siu Mai was okay...and the 18 Monk noodle bowl gave me the same impression. Was hoping for more flavorful elevated dishes. Quickly paid and left. Hate saying this, but I don't think we will be returning. read more

On my quest for a taco bar that I was never able to find, I happened by this spot nestled away in the Cosmopolitan casino eatery. CP is a creation of José Andrés, the chef entrepreneur well known for his world renowned restaurants and humanitarian work. On my visit. I was solo and opted to sit at the bar which gave me direct view of all the frenetic kitchen activity. All kinds of stuff was being prepared, so that in itself was entertaining. There is a pretty extensive menu as they offer Chinese and Mexican inspired food. I was committed to having something taco-ish since that's what I ventured out for in the first place. The server, Brother Huy, greeted me at the bar and offered some insight on what CP does best. Knowing my friends had plans to hit up a buffet later, "keeping it light" was my way to go. I got the queso fundido, basically an overindulgence in flambéed cheese and corn tortillas, and tuna empanadas. The queso was cheesy, yes, but flavorful. The tortillas were fine. (Turns out the dish was a shareable, so It wasn't the best idea to order this solo. The empanadas were light and delicious, full of flavor for such small bites. Thoroughly enjoyed these. I really enjoyed the experience, and thank Huy for his hospitality. It was almost like he was hosting diners like it was his own home. Overall a very good experience. read more

Stumbled upon China Poblano by Jose Andres by accident while exploring Cosmopolitan's food area on the second floor. I was curious to try it and there was a short line right before opening. You can make reservations ahead of time, but most people waiting in line were seated within 10-15 minutes after opening. It's an interesting concept to serve both Mexican and Chinese dishes, not "fusion" but together. I already feel like these cuisines have a lot of crossover and was interested to try Jose Andres' take. Hubby made the best call by ordering the dim sum "Quail Egg Siu Mai" - this was the best dish we had here. Poached quail egg sits atop siu mai. Really delicious. Ceviche con Citricos was standard, wish there was more hearty pieces of the sea bass. Oxtail Noodle Soup was okay, the braised oxtail was not as tender as I would like and noodles were too hard/undercooked to start...after they sat in the broth a bit longer, it was better. They had tamales over the holidays and hubby ordered the Birria one, which was good! So much meat. Might return to try other dim sum dishes if we're ever near the Cosmo area. Service was fairly quick. Only one restroom for each gender, which both had interesting wall designs with Mesican Peso Dollars and Chinese Yuan Dollars lining the walls. Loved the interior/aesthetic of the restaurant, they've got 3 separate kitchens so food does come out as it is ready. read more

Absolutely love this concept. They have several different kitchens in the dining areas all going at the same time depending on which cuisine you order. They bring out dishes as they are prepared, so don't be surprised if you have to wait for a bit before another dish comes out. Right now, and until 12/31, they are doing a tamale special and the birria tamale was incredible. I also recommend their table side guac to share. 10/10 - I've been here before and will definitely be back again. read more

China Poblano brings together two bold cuisines--Chinese and Mexican--in a surprisingly seamless way at this José Andrés concept. The space itself matches the idea: colorful, lively, and full of energy. The menu is packed with tempting options from both sides, which made choosing difficult. Thankfully, the tasting menu solved that problem perfectly. I started with a salt foam margarita that was bright and refreshing, a great way to kick things off. The tasting menu included nine dishes, each thoughtfully selected, flavorful, and portioned just right so you leave satisfied but not overwhelmed. The mango sticky rice at the end was the perfect sweet finish and easily one of the highlights. If you're looking for a fun, casual, and slightly festive dining spot in Vegas, China Poblano is a solid choice. read more

We went twice. And while I love Jose and his other place in Cosmo, this one isn't our favorite. We did the pre fixe and found it to be just not enough food. There were some good dishes, but they were all tiny bites. So if you're going with that, get some additional dishes or apps. When we ordered a'la carte, we didn't love the individual dishes so much. The shrimp that was delicious in the tasting menu was cloying and pungent in a larger portion. The steak we ordered was served ice cold and had to be sent back. The guacamole is delicious but tableside guac usually is. Service here has been really friendly and helpful. I can see coming back for some apps and drinks - it's a good choice for a casual meal. For a nicer dinner, there are better choices at Cosmo. read more

I had some hopes with fusion food but I was very mistaken after ordering takeout from this restaurant. Quite unfortunate. I ordered the traditional shumai with quail egg and a la leng mian (cold noodles). I had such high expectations. The shumai was salty and mushy. The noodles were soggy, flavorless and chili crisp barely added flavor to the vegetables/noodles. The only positive note was that the vegetables were fresh and the cashier who took my order was kind. Maybe I just ordered the wrong things but the cashier mentioned she always ordered those as well. Wrong day? read more

The decor of the restaurant has always caught my attention whenever I was in the cosmopolitan. I haven't seen many places that serve Asian/mexican fusion dishes so it was worth a try.

Went here on our first night in Vegas and we immediately got the vibe - lively, upscale, best of two worlds. My husband and I went ahead and tried their Camarones Al Mojo De Ajo Negro and we also got some Har Gow. Servings were small, we probably expected a bit more. Mango sticky rice was not the usual dessert we expected. It was quite busy and there was some bit of a wait. But I see their wait staff very attentive and friendly, kinda makes up for it.
