    42 DOLLARS?!

    I've been to La Tradición several times before and had good experiences, but this last visit was really disappointing. The food was just okay this time -- definitely not as good as before. But what really soured the experience was the way they handled the drinks. We ordered horchata, and the waitress kept offering refills without once mentioning that each refill was $6! Naturally, we accepted a few refills, thinking it was complimentary like in most places. Imagine our surprise when the bill came out to a whopping $178 -- and over $40 of that was just from horchata refills! When we asked about the high total, the waitress casually told us that they charge for refills. Seriously? That should've been communicated upfront. Instead, we got hit with an unexpected charge for drinks that ended up costing more than the actual food. Be careful if you visit this place -- apparently, transparency isn't their strong suit. Make sure to ask about hidden charges before you say yes to those "extra" offers. I expected better from a restaurant I've enjoyed in the past. He visitado La Tradición varias veces antes y, en general, me había ido bien, pero esta última visita fue muy decepcionante. La comida estuvo regular, nada especial, y definitivamente no tan buena como en otras ocasiones. Pero lo que realmente arruinó la experiencia fue cómo manejaron las bebidas. Pedimos horchata, y la mesera nos ofrecía más refills constantemente sin mencionar ni una sola vez que cada refill costaba $6. Naturalmente, aceptamos varios refills pensando que eran gratis, como en la mayoría de los lugares. ¡Nuestra sorpresa llegó cuando nos trajeron la cuenta, que salió en $178 -- y más de $40 solo fueron refills de horchata! Cuando preguntamos por qué la cuenta estaba tan alta, la mesera simplemente nos dijo que cobraban por los refills. ¿En serio? Eso es algo que deberían haber mencionado desde el principio. En lugar de eso, nos cargaron un costo inesperado por las bebidas, que terminaron saliendo más caras que la comida. Tengan cuidado si visitan este lugar -- al parecer, la transparencia no es su fuerte. Asegúrense de preguntar por cargos ocultos antes de aceptar cualquier "extra". Esperaba mucho más de un restaurante que antes me gustaba.

    This is the best spot to get street tacos in Las Vegas and what's even better about it, is that you can buy them for a very reasonable price!

Let me tell you....Best decision we ever made. The food was AMAZING!!! The atmosphere was cool and the music they play is awesome. We sat at the bar and Jose was our server. We told him it was our first time and he made some great recommendations. If they are any food critics reading this please please come review this place. I'm sure you will love this place the way we did. I can tell you without a doubt that we will be back more sooner than later.

They have a Loteria drinking game, with each card matching a drink on the menu. Fun idea, but when explained seemed confusing. The drink was ok, too sweet for me and a little small for the price. Menu highlights for me was The dirty corn, salsa flight, and my (2) taco plate. The dirty corn was a standout with elote-style corn in a bowl, topped with chicharron, chorizo, and spicy mayo. It delivers that street corn flavor, but with a good mix of textures and spice. My tacos were delicious. I tried one grilled shrimp taco and one carnitas taco, served with rice and beans. The blue corn tortillas were a nice touch and pillowy soft! The carnitas were amazing, great flavor and super tender. I shrimp tacos were just as good and when topped with their habanero, verde, and roja salsa, that heat and flavor depth gets elevated! Overall, it's a dependable neighborhood spot with a fun atmosphere, creative touches, and good food that makes it worth a visit if you are in the area!

    After an early morning flight into Vegas, my sisters and I went to Chica for brunch. We got a…read morereservation, which didn't really seem necessary as it was pretty empty when we got there. The vibes are really fun, very vibrant and there are various rooms that could offer more intimate spaces if you wanted. We were greeted pretty promptly, but the service was admittedly slow. He was attentive when around, and there was someone always coming around and filling our water, but it did take a bit to get our order in and receive our food. The food was absolutely delicious! I can't remember the name of my meal, but it had steak with chimichurri, fried plantain, pico, avocado, beans, rice and an egg. My favorite part was definitely the steak! It was perfectly cooked and the chimichurri added the best brightness that the dish needed! There are so many spots in Vegas so I'm not sure I'd come back but I definitely enjoyed it.

Every food item on the Happy Hour menu is $12, which makes it a great way to try a variety of dishes without spending a fortune in Vegas. We ordered the shrimp tacos, CHICA nachos, Firecracker Wings, quesa-birria empanadas, potato flautas, shrimp ceviche, and ahi tuna bites. Everything was absolutely delicious, and there honestly wasn't a bad dish in the bunch. One thing to keep in mind is that these truly are small plates. Don't expect a lot of food with each $12 dish. They're perfect for ordering several different things and sharing, but if you're really hungry, you'll definitely want to order multiple plates. The Firecracker Wings had a really nice kick to them. We loved the spice, but if you have a lower spice tolerance, be careful with those! Also, a heads-up about the shrimp ceviche: CHICA's version is more tomato-based rather than the bright, lime-forward ceviche you might be expecting. It was still really good, but if you don't like tomato-based ceviche, that's definitely something to know before ordering. For drinks, we tried the CHICA-Rita, Palomita, and Tommy's Margarita. They were running a 2-for-1 drink special for $21 total, which was such a great deal, especially for Vegas. Between the absolutely delicious food, fun atmosphere, and Happy Hour pricing, we really enjoyed CHICA. It's a great spot if you like ordering a bunch of small plates for the table and getting to try a little bit of everything.
