    Fideua - Seafood paella with Fideua

    Fideua

    Holy... where do I even start?…read more A friend highly recommended this place, so I went with high expectations. Somehow, Fideua still managed to exceed every one of them. A few tips if it's your first visit: 1. Order from their pre-order menu (at least 24 hours in advance). 2. Come HUNGRY. Seriously. 3. Set aside 1.5-2.5 hours to enjoy the full experience. 4. Save room for dessert. What I ordered: - Sautéed Shrimp, Calamari & Octopus (Sepa/Gambas/Pulpo al Ajillo) - Sea Bass Oven-Cooked in a Salt Crust - Ox Tail (Rabo de Toro) - Chef's Signature Seafood Fideuà - Warm Bread with Spanish-Style Aioli - Chef's Choice Dessert (Surtido de Postres) I would order every single one of these again without hesitation. Fideua is a small husband/wife restaurant about 10-15 minutes off the Las Vegas Strip, by Head Chef Farman and Sous Chef Barbara. Barbara makes the desserts in-house, so the selection is limited.. but that's exactly why they're so good. Beautifully balanced, not overly sweet, and the perfect way to end the meal. One tip: don't finish the aioli with the bread. Save it for the sea bass, ox tail, and paella/fideua. You'll thank me later. This was one of the best meals I've had in Las Vegas. What I loved most was how authentic everything felt. The ingredients are imported from Spain, and nothing tasted "Americanized". The food, service, and hospitality were all exceptional. I've eaten at many José Andrés restaurants across different cities, and while I enjoy them, they're much more modern fusion. Fideua delivers something much closer to what you'd actually experience in Spain, and that's what makes it so special. Honestly, I haven't had a Spanish meal this authentic even in Los Angeles. There are a couple good ones but not THIS good. The pricing is also incredibly fair. To get this level of quality on the Strip, you'd easily pay two to three times more.. and even then, I doubt the food would taste better. If you can, book an earlier timing so you'll have the chance to chat with Farman & Barbara and his culinary journey. His warmth, curiosity, and passion shine through not only in conversation but in every dish that comes out of the kitchen. I already can't wait to come back in a few months to try other dishes on the menu.

We checked out the reviews and saw overall it has good reviews. While the location wasn't somewhere I'd usually visit (the only reason why I didn't give 5 stars). I am glad that we decided to come give it a try. The paella is was good and the aioli was great! And the restaurant itself felt fun and home-y. The owner and his wife were extremely hospitable and their service was great! Usually need a reservation here but glad we were able to get in without one.

    Amazing First Visit, Disappointing Second One! Be careful when ordering!…read more I heard so many great things about the infamous churrasco at this restaurant, so I made the trip and ordered it. My first visit (May 16th) was outstanding! The churrasco was a decent, juicy, and tender NY Strip Steak with perfect thickness, served over yuca fries, sweet plantains, and potatoes. The chimichurri on the side wasn't the authentic Argentinian recipe, but it was still good. I ordered it medium rare, exactly how I like it, and it was amazing, tasty, and delicious. (See photo #1.) Today (June 19th), I decided to stop by again--but it was a huge disappointment. The churrasco I received didn't taste like NY Strip Steak and tasted like the regular cheap meat you get when you go to a bad cheap Mexican restaurant and order the famous carne asada plate. It wasn't cooked to the medium temperature I ordered. The cut was extremely thin, almost like Carne Asada or Chuck Roast (the kind used for their $9.99 corrientazo or the meat they served on the "Bandeja Paisa plate" . It was dried, rubbery, and had no taste whatsoever. I mentioned the issue to the waiter and even showed him the meat while asking for the bill. He told me, "I'm sorry, today was your unlucky day , I will let them know"?. This is Unacceptable. A good restaurant management should approach the customer and replace the meal or not even charging ! He acknowledged it was completely wrong when he saw the meat and apologized sincerely. That honesty was appreciated, but it's stories like this that make a restaurant lose its reputation and push customers away. In my case, I'm now afraid to come back and waste my money. First photo: My amazing churrasco from May 5th. Photos 2 & 3: The disappointing churrasco from today (June 19th). I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and improves consistency. A great restaurant can easily become a great and reliable one with better attention to detail. Maybe the cooks picked the wrong meat or sliced it wrong? Just look at images 2 & 3 and compare the big difference--thin and dried! I'm a bit upset about wasting my money for pretty much garbage.

    On a trip from San Francisco, I was on the hunt for authentic Salvadoran food. Reluctantly, I asked…read morea local who worked at the outlets for a recommendation. She immediately suggested this place and warned us that it wasn't a touristy spot. I've never been one to judge a book by its cover, so I decided to trust her. We arrived at the restaurant, and it wasn't exactly what I had in mind for a dining experience. But I put my faith in the local's judgment. As we walked in, my kids were already complaining about the area. We found a table and were the only diners. I started to feel a little uneasy, but when our server came out, her energy perked me up. We ordered pupusas and some yuca. Oh my goodness, they were amazing! The pupusas were the best I've ever had while in Vegas. They were perfectly mashed, not greasy, and tasted like home. I couldn't believe how good they were. We will most definitely be back once our next visit!

    My mom always gets her pupusas from here since 2016. Today I took my husband to dine in and we got…read morepupusas. I got three of the pupusas revueltas which have bacon, beans and cheese. My husband got four, three of bacon beans and cheese and one pork and cheese. They were big. I could barely finish one and a half and my husband got full with two pupusas. They were so good! I also got a virgin mangoneada since I don't drink alcohol. And my husband got the passion fruit juice. They were delicious. Our bill came out to $37, which is not bad at all. We will definitely be coming back again. Our server was so sweet and was always on top of things. She multitasked like a champ handling the phones, orders, and serving all in a timely manner and friendly. Thank you!

The place has 4 bar height small round tables with 2 chairs for each table. Each table is good for 2 people max. There are 2 tables outside that seats 4. Most of the customers place to-go orders. As you walk in, you're greeted by friendly staff and a glass case of their delicious empanadas and sweets! Don't forget to look up and read the menu as they do offer ala carte options. For my first visit, I had their Ultimate Silog Meal - Choice of 2 proteins, 5 pieces of pork lumpia, garlic fried rice, with a side of house-made pickled papaya and house-made sweet spicy vinegar. For my 2 proteins, I chose their house-made Ilocos Longganisa and the pan-grilled marinated boneless chicken w/soy mirin glazed. The Longganisa....WOW....it's flavorful and it's the best tasting longganisa I've ever had! The chicken was delicious too! Someone said it's like terriyaki chicken but I disagree. It looks like terriyaki chicken because of the glaze but the taste is unique -- perfect balance between the saltiness of the soy and the sweetness of mirin. For a drink, I had their Halo-Halo...and you might say, "What?! DRINK?! Halo-Halo?!" Their halo-halo is not your typical halo-halo. It has all the traditional components -- jellies, sweetened fruits, like jackfruit, ube, leche flan, milk, shaved ice -- and components they incorporated to make their own like boba and other goodness (not going to tell you, you just have to go and try it). Served with straw. Their empandas are equally delicious! What I've had so far: - Pork Asado - my favorite. First bite, I said "Wow!" out loud. - Beef Picadillo - Chicken Mushroom - Adobo sa Dilaw - Pork Sisig - Pork Dinuguan - Spinach and Pork "Laing" Their empanada de turon is a must try! - Banana Langka - my favorite - Banana Langka Ube - Banan Ube As we sat and enjoyed our lunch (no I didn't eat all the empanadas I listed above...I ordered them to-go and enjoyed them at home and shared with the fam), I was pleasantly surprised to see that the establishment is equally popular among non-Filipinos.
