    Una decoración
    Cristina S.

    The decor and overall concept at La Vecindad are amazing! That was actually what caught our attention and made us want to visit. The atmosphere is beautiful and very unique. Unfortunately, the food and service did not live up to the expectations. The staff was very friendly and kind, but there were quite a few mistakes. I was brought the wrong dish and, luckily, I hadn't eaten it before it was exchanged for the correct one. And the funniest part... they brought the piquete before the coffee! I really wanted to love this place because the concept and decor are so beautiful. Hopefully, they can improve the service and food because the restaurant has a lot of potential.

    This is our Mexican spot when we are around the Strip. So, I blew it this time. I took a lovely photo of our drinks with the chips and salsa. I had the carnitas taco plate and he had the chicken quesadilla. OMG! Nom nom nom!!! It smelled so good. My next thought was to take a video of the fajita cart as it passed by, but my hands were full of taco. I have no food picture or video just the drinks. THAT is a testament to how good it is. You forget the phone. The service is good and fast. Everyone checks on you. Good tejano music. Nice volume to allow for conversation between bites. Next time pictures. I promise!

    Mole Poblano
    Lee S.

    This restaurant was recommended to me several weeks back and I finally had the opportunity to visit. I ordered the Mole Poblano with Dark brown, sweet mole sauce served over chicken with rice, beans, and tortillas. The chicken was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The rice was delicious as were the beans. However, the mole sauce lacked serious flavor and was neither sweet nor spicy. Mole Pablano is one of my favorite dishes and one I often order and unfortunately this dish fell well short of my expectation. This restaurant is very popular and is loved by many. Its authentic design resembles restaurants often seen in Mexico. The staff were extremely friendly, welcoming and very attentive throughout my meal, which was appreciated.

    I really wanted to like this place because it's such a nostalgic concept, especially if you grew up watching El Chavo del Ocho. Unfortunately, the food was a huge disappointment. It was honestly some of the blandest Mexican food I've had, and nothing we ordered really stood out. It also felt a bit like a tourist trap. A simple frozen margarita was around $20, and the menu seemed pretty limited. I've since heard they're mostly known for their giant tortas, so maybe that's what they're best at. The service was fine, but the overall ambiance felt a little off. There was also a noticeable smell throughout the restaurant that made it seem like there might be plumbing issues. Sadly, the nostalgia wasn't enough to make up for the food, and I don't see myself coming back.

    Absolutely loved this spot great service, great food, great atmosphere. If your a fan of el chavo del 8 you have to stop by here

    I have been here twice and each time the staff and service has been outstanding. The food is delicious with huge portions. The atmosphere and ambiance are nostalgic for anyone who grew up watching Chespirito and El Chavo del Ocho. You will love this place!

    Stopped here on the way to Denver from Long Beach and loved it! El chavo del Ocho themed was so creative and the staff was super attentive. Great food Thanks to Gilmar and staff for hosting

    I came here for the first time yesterday. So damn good. I had the 2 taco plate with a grilled jalapeño. 1 chorizo taco and 1 carnita. Both were so tasty. My sone got fajitas and his girlfriend got a torta. Everything was great along with the service. Born & raised Vegas. Can't believe I never came here. Love it

    Sunday around 4pm the place wasn't as busy as it normally is. It was our first time and we had great service. I wanted a cantarito and it turned out to be extra large. I had a mini torta with French fries and it was outstanding. We ordered the breaded shrimp for my toddler and my husband got flautas, everything was so good we almost finished everything on the plate. Authentic cooking in a cool theme chavo del ocho place. I want to go back for a torta de jamón and to try whatever comes out in a cart and makes an ambulance sound, so fun!

    Asada nachos and carnitas plate
    Lucy S.

    Cute place with El Chavo theme all over the restaurant. Service was good. Got the asada nachos as an appetizer and they were the best thing i ate there. I got the carnitas plate. Came with 3 tortillas. I feel like it was missing a side of salsa. The agua frescas are delicious. I would go again for the nachos if im ever in town again.

    Friends enjoying a photo opportunity with El Chavo!

    La Vecindad, is a family restaurant that is casual and the theme is after the very popular Mexican situation, comedy show "El Chavo del Ocho." the staff dresses as many of the characters from the show. In addition to the white stuff balloon artist creates, complementary, balloon art and deliver them to diners. We were celebrating a birthday and were pleasantly surprised with the celebration the staff created. Everyone was happy with their mail. I enjoyed Carne En Su Hugo, my husband had Chilaquiles with eggs, friends the fajitas which looked really good. We ordered various dishes and everyone was content with their order. We all let very full and happy. They also have house-made frescas and Mexican Coke. In the entrance of the restaurant next to the cashier is a small gift shop featuring items from the television program.

    My children took me out to La Vecindad. They said they had been there and the food was good and good prices and they weren't wrong. We went on a super busy night and I the staff seemed a little overwhelmed. We ordered an appetizer that didn't arrive until after we were done with our dinner. They had also made the dinner plates with some lacking items that normally come with it and they forgot a drink we ordered till we were about half way done with dinner. I do think this place has some good food and good pieces but I'd advise going on a night they aren't that busy

    Everything about our experience was great. Only if you uber make sure you pick the restaurant and not the cantina. They are close together but it's a bit of a walk if you are not able to walk any distance. The food was amazing. Best mole I've ever eaten. Loved every bite. Even our 4 year old loved her food. I give it the highest recommendation I can. You won't be disappointed.

    The meal was fantastic and the service was excellent; the only drawback is that using a credit card incurs a 2.75% surcharge.

Try the Mexican corn appetizer with it's crumbly cotija cheese, chili, lime, and mayo on top of charred corn kernels. It's in 'esquites' form, which means it's not left on the cob like 'elote' is. Their specialty, nachos, are also well seasoned and the chips are freshly made on site. What drew me in to this restaurant was a past appearance on the Maury Povich Show, where I took a paternity test for someone who claimed she was my daughter. The end result? I was cleared, so Maury pointed at me while telling her that he's "Not yo' daddy." And so I visit Nacho Daddy on occasion, strictly for celebratory reasons. Birria nachos are excellent, made with a high quality shredded beef with pickled onion, cilantro, sour cream, cheese, and lime on top of a stack of chips. Having birria without consommé was new, but this one didn't really need it with all the flavors jumping out. Another recommendation is the cheeseburger nacho, an Americanized version with ground beef, bacon, cheddar, jack, queso, onions, tomato, and lettuce. The 'mini nachos' are perfectly sized for a light meal but if you're hungry, get the full size order which is huge and shareable. This location has been in business for 17 years now and there's plenty of seating in a nice, clean atmosphere.

    Title: The Best Birria I've Had... Period!…read more (5/5 stars) If you're a birria lover, stop what you're doing and head to Birria Bite. This place may be a small tavern-style spot with just enough seating, but don't let the size fool you. The moment you walk in, the aroma of the birria comes rolling out of the kitchen like a raging bull--it lets you know you're in the right place! They offer both goat and beef birria, and the flavor is absolutely incredible. I've only been eating birria for about five years, but in that time I've made it a mission to try it everywhere I travel. I've had birria from Las Vegas, California, Nebraska, Florida, and Texas, and I can honestly say Birria Bite is hands down the best I've had. I always order the Quesabirria Combo, and it never disappoints. The consommé is rich, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned--good enough to sip on by itself. And even though it's outside my normal diet, I can't leave without getting the Piña pineapple drink. It's sweet, refreshing, and absolutely fire. The hospitality is always A1, the staff makes you feel welcome every visit, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and portions you receive. This is one of those hidden gems you'll keep coming back to. If you haven't been yet, you're missing out. Don't meet me there... beat me there... or be square!
