Lucia Mexican Grill is located inside the Virgin Hotels Las Vegas. Unlike many restaurants on the Strip, you don't have to pay for parking. The hotel offers free guest parking, so you also don't have to worry about the typical 3-hour parking limit. That's a huge bonus! During happy hour, I ordered the Chile Relleno, and it was absolutely delicious. The meat was tender and flavorful, and the sauce paired perfectly with it. It had a little kick, but since I love spicy food, it was just right for me. The chips were freshly made, crispy, and addictive. The drinks also tasted fresh and refreshing. I highly recommend Lucia Mexican Grill to anyone craving authentic Mexican food. Everything was delicious, and I'll definitely be back! read more

During my October, 2025 nearly week-long stay at the Virgin Hotels for the annual NASPP Conference, Lucia MEXICAN GRILL was a popular spot for attendees to grab a quick bite and/or drink. Rhonda, Nina and I met up at Lucia's bar for cocktails on the early evening of Tuesday, the 21st, at around 5:15. Walking through the hotel hallway, the arch doorway entry to Lucia invites guests to a warm and lively space. The eatery is rich in vibrant el Día de los Muertos-themed décor; paintings and ornaments of esqueletos, calaveras y flores (skeletons, skulls and flowers) adorn the walls throughout the venue. Classic Mexican cuisine is on the menu. Unfortunately, we didn't stay long enough to eat. We came for the bebidas (drinks), specifically margaritas. Sticking to my regular, I ordered a STRAWBERRY MARGARITA ($14) which was good and strong, but I did wish that it was blended. The bartender who waited on us was quick, attentive and engagingly friendly. We were in and out, leaving with smiles and buzzes starting to kick in. We had to stop by the wall of flowers to snap a photo together before we left - we couldn't miss that photo op! read more

This place is located in the Virgin Hotel, and a lot of people come in for happy hour or for a light dinner before catching a show on the property. College basketball conference championships were happening, so it was like a preview of what to expect when the opening weekend of March Madness kicked off. Happy hour is only 1 hour, so I tried my best to put down some of the Lucia Margaritas that were only $8 each. Decided to order the chips & Salsa along with the Guacamole Sassy Squad as it includes 3 of Lucia's guacamoles & chips. My favorite one was the chamoy mango. The others were solid, but the chips and guac needed some salt for my liking. They are only open from 5-10pm on the weekdays with some extended hours on the weekend. Service at the bar with Michaela was great, and everyone kept close tabs on us while we were watching the game. They really are why I gave this spot a 4-star...customer service!! read more

I ate here twice during my stay at the Virgin. The prices are more expensive than the previous Pink Taco and Casa Calavera that was in this spot but hey, inflation. The layout is pretty much the same although the decor has changed from the previous iterations. There were some inconsistencies in the kitchen as I had the same tacos de hongos al pastor both times. The first time the tacos were not spicy at all without drenching them in salsa. Second time, the spice hit me off the bat. On my first outing, my beans were also strangely cold but I did not complain to the waiter. Both times, the service was really nice. My margarita drinks were tasty. read more

I was staying at the Virginia hotel and me and some friends decided to check out this spot for dinner. We decided to sit at the bar and the service was amazing...everyone was very attentive! We started with a pitcher of the tamarind margarita...so yummy and just the right amount of tart and sweet. I also ordered the chips and salsa... the salsa was thinner than I like but the flavor was really good! I went with the enchiladas and subbed the chicken for al pastor, it comes with rice and beans...unfortunately my enchiladas were cold but they quickly replaced and brought my fresh rice and beans! Everything was well seasoned and the portions were generous! Great service! I would definitely visit again when I'm in the area. read more

Stopped at Lucia Mexican Grill for lunch on a Friday afternoon. Wait time was only 20 minutes. The decor continues to be nice but on the dark side. The layout remains the same, even though the restaurant name has changed over the years. The chips and salsa are not complimentary, but isn't very expensive. I got the Queso Birria tacos with rice and beans. The food was tasty and the service was good. We didn't try any deserts this time. Definitely a solid place to eat if you're in the Virgin Hotel and Casino. read more

Lucia Mexican Grill used to be the old Pink Taco formally owner by the Morton Family son Harry who unexpectedly passed away at a very young age in 2019 due to heart failure! Much of the Hard Rock Hotel still looks the same but gone are all the memobilares on the casino floor. With that being said, I tried Lucia several times while staying at the Hotel and this place never disappoints. One of the highlights is the $5 Taco Tuesday which I loved the Fish Taco over the Birria Taco but clearly Chicken Tinga Taco was my favorite. The Chicken Tinga bowl is also amazing and highly recommended. Salute! read more

We checked in and after dropping stuff off at our room, we headed here for dinner for Taco Tuesday. We were famished after our flight and we tried a variety of tacos for $5 each. We tried the carne asada, shrimp, fish, chicken, and carnitas tacos. I didn't love the shrimp and fish, as they just were breaded and tasted ok, but I like the carne asada and chicken tacos. They were filled with lots of meat. We also didn't have to wait long for our food after ordering. For dessert we shared churros and it was a very large churro with 3 sauces. It's definitely a dessert to be shared by at least 2 people. I enjoyed the variety of sauces. The service was attentive, but not overbearing. I enjoyed our experience and the food! read more

The Mexican restaurant inside the Virgin Hotel. This was previously two other Mexican restaurants, starting with the Pink Taco when it was the Hard Rock. I thought the food was better than the previous two restaurant, service a little slow, but would definitely go back. read more

Lucia Mexican Grill - Chicken enchiladas - Tacos Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

This Mexican restaurant inside the Virgin Hotel is super cute, with a fun and colorful vibe that matches the energy of Vegas. The back patio opens right out to the pool in the center of the hotel, which makes it a really fun setting whether you're there for brunch or dinner. It feels lively and stylish but still comfortable enough to just hang out and enjoy. Food-wise, the quesadilla was hands down the best I've ever had--perfectly cheesy, crispy, and so flavorful. And the pancake tacos? Absolutely to die for, such a creative dish and totally worth ordering. Between the atmosphere and the food, this was one of the most memorable meals of my trip. read more

Great food, almost there but weak hot sauce. Get some real Habanero sauce please! Chuhula is too weak.

Virgin offered me some dining credit and I wanted to try something other than Kassi Beach, so we decided to hit up the happy hour here. We sat at the bar. Bartenders were amazing. We ordered 4 Carne Asada tacos at 5 dollars each for Taco Tuesday. We also got some chips and salsa for 4 dollars and a side of beans for 6. Beers were 5 dollars for Happy hour...I loved the beer glasses and the beer tasted great. Chips and Salsa just OK..not sure why they served two Salsas that did not even closely resemble traditional salsa...nor could I figure out what created that color? Sour cream or crema? Bizarre. Tacos arrived and they tasted ok as well..they do a wierd large slice of cheese rather than shredded...and usually on carne asada tacos there is no cheese...so it was also confusing...these were served with the same green "salsa" that came with the chips. Beans were quite good. I wonder if I will return and try something else? The restaurant is beautiful... but why serve up peculiar Mexican cuisine? read more

Worst Mexican restaurant, came 2 days in a row both days were bad , I got rib eye agua chile , you get like 5 thin slices probably like 1/4 of a rib eye, rice n beans don't taste all that good. Chips n salsa suck. The salsa is weird not actual salsa. Molcajete sucks not what I expected they fill it up with rice and beans to the brim and top it off with the protein so it looks full , cheese was cold flavor wasn't good either. Taqueria starter plate where good except the menu mentions birria taquitos and they brought out mole taquitos read more

I was honestly not expecting much from this restaurant as I had a $100 credit from the hotel and this is one of the places where I could use it. In fact I had dinner here two nights in a row. The restaurant was not crowded at 8 pm and I was seated immediately at the table inside. There is a patio dining are which is nice during the warmer summer nights. On my first night I order the chips and salsa appetizer and the chicken enchiladas. On the second night I order the salmon (that is how it was listed on the menu). Service was prompt and excellent and the decor is interesting. There is a large bar area where one can watch the game on tv while enjoying your meal. The chicken enchiladas appeared from the kitchen well under 5 minutes hot and fresh. The green salsa topping the encilada was nice with a light spiciness to it. Perhaps it would have been better if one could order a specific spicy level. The nacho chips were OK but I prefer thinner chips. The salmon was excellent and cooked to medium perfection. The green sauce was nice but would have been better if it were a little spicier. The small black bean sauce was excellent too. Overall I enjoyed the meal and the prices were fairly reasonable for a hotel restaurant. read more

We stayed at the Virgin Hotel in Vegas and decided to try this restaurant since it's inside the hotel. It wasn't too crowded, our server was excellent, and everyone in my party thought the food was pretty good. My favorite was the guac and chicharrón appetizer, though it could definitely use more chicharrón since it only came with a few pieces. I'd happily come back and eat here again. read more

Look, if you're staying at the Virgin Hotel and need an early late night bite, this works. Plenty of seating and tables- indoor or out. Our sever was friendly and did a decent job but we didn't know there was a cost for chips and dip. We ordered the pork belly and avocado which was good but you only get 3 pieces. Not worth it. On the positive, the shrimp tacos are delicious. Would I come here again? Only if I was staying and desperate to eat. 1 star for the fish tacos 1 star for restaurant hours and space availability I star for friendly service read more

Service was excellent! Waiters very friendly and respectful. Delicious, Gigantic churro! Enjoyed it with chocolate sauce. The berry sauce is cold and eating salsa with churro was foreign to me, so stuck with chocolate. Thoroughly enjoyed. Tried to finish it, but too much! Fish tacos for my main meal weren't fresh, but this dessert made up for it! Ambiance is lively. They play house versions of pop, hip hop and top 100 songs read more

No bad experience here for me. It was pretty empty when I stopped in. Came in for a quick solo dinner after work. The bartenders were extremely helpful and nice. They got me my food quickly and made sure I was taken care of from a service standpoint. The bowl was delicious and definitely on the larger side of portions. The place itself is in the virgin hotel and has a pretty decent vibe. They would probably drive more business if they had a better experience in the back area of the place. Either way. Solid spot. Cheers! read more

Came for the brunch and to try small bites. Loved the seating, lighting and deco of the restaurant. This place used to be called casa cavalera. The pancakes were dry with a firm texture. The butter we requested was in liquid form and tasted like a burnt flavacol maybe ghee taste. The side of sausage was wonderful and their green salsa and chips were great too. The salsa are of a creamier texture. I'd come back to try their regular lunch/dinner menu. read more

Last night I ordered a grilled chicken breast to-go and waited at the bar. One of the bartenders was kind and gave me water while I waited. The other bartender that took my order was thoughtful and asked about seasoning. (Hopefully he doesn't get in trouble) Tonight, my 2nd night here, I called to place an order for pick-up and was told it'd be a 5-10 min wait. Nice and quick! Then I got a call back. The woman hostess informed me that there's a $4 to-go fee because I'm not eating my "$5 Taco Tuesday" taco in the restaurant. I then asked her to then take the taco off my order. She asked if I want to cancel the whole order, I said no. She asked if I still want to place it with the $4 charge, I said no I'm no longer getting the taco. Then she told me no there's still a fee and all to-go orders charge a $4 fee. After giving me attitude she suggested I speak to the manager. After speaking to the manager he informed me that the bar messed up and I should've been charged the $4 fee on top of my $10 chicken breast I ordered the night before to cover the cost of the to-go bag, and set of plastic ware. If a restaurant needs to charge $4 for a small bag, a set of plastic ware and a box for my chicken breast to keep their head above water, they may need to look for a new supplier. read more

Such a great experience from beginning to end! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was wonderful, our server Alain took such great care of us, he was incredibly attentive and made our experience extra special.

We arrived on a Wednesday night and the place was not busy and we sat at the bar. Our server was friendly and engaging. I had a tequila old fashioned that was delicious. I am still not sure how he made it but it was really good. My friend had a Texas margarita and it was really good. I have a garlic allergy and our bartender did his diligence and went to the kitchen to see what I could have. I had the shrimp quesadilla and it was really good. They took good care of us and the prices were not that bad. The happy hour special is good but it is only 5-6 for cheaper drinks and apps. read more

Yum, this place hit the spot last night! Everything was flavorful and piping hot in the correct ways. Fajitas didn't disappoint, especially after a delicious side of chips and salsas. Our server, Jennifer was so sweet and such a kind human. She is such a natural people-person, with a really beautiful demeanor. The other servers and employees walking through the restaurant were just as helpful, no one had a "not my table, not my problem" attitude, everyone really seemed to look out for each other. Appreciated that! Definitely worth stopping in for a bite. read more

This place is so much fun! The food was amazing. There was something for everyone. With a food allergy in our group they were so quick to swap things around and thoughtful about making sure everything was taken care of. Very accommodating. The tacos were wonderful and there were three choices of guacamole. The churros were a meal in themselves (make sure to save room for desert!) and unlike any I've ever had. There is music (a DJ and trumpet player together!) and a fun ambiance. Outdoor seating if you wish and a large bar area serving up great drinks. Don't be fooled by this being a new restaurant, they know what they are doing and this is a sure bet for great food and a fun night! Perfect after a concert or an evening of fun at the casino. The chef is fantastic! read more

Lucia Mexican Grill - Make sure to drop in for Taco Tuesday (and get the guacamole while you're there!)! - Tacos Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I have been coming to this spot for years (it has gone through a few iterations of Mexican joints, but all solid). Lucia has top-notch grub and drinks. I think they might have brought on a new chef since the last time I was here, because it is slightly different than what I have experienced in the past, but downright delicious. I went with my standard three tacos de asada -- they come perfectly prepared with a redish sauce that is simply mouth watering. The tacos also come with a strip of Mexican panela cheese. So DAMN GOOD! I also got a side of rice and beans... could have been prepared in my Grandma's kitchen! Service is also great. The night I went Michael was getting his ass kicked because there were several concerts going that night, but he took care of business like the pro he is. Treat yourself and get here! read more

It a beautiful restaurant. The music is amazing the DJ was playing and the music wasn't super overwhelming you can still have a conversation without having to be yelling. The bottomless mimosas were pretty good. I had orange juice and cranberry mix and my sister had cranberry and pineapple and my other sister pineapple. My sister order birria tacos and they were delicious juicy tender meat. My other sister order asada tacos and also the meat was good. My niece had the breakfast burrito and it was a nice size that she shared with her mom and it was filling. The pancakes were fluffy and they needed no butter it was already sweet enough. I truly wanted to have the chilaquiles the server brought me the red and green sauce to try first because I am not much of a spicy eater and oh my goodness the sauce where good so much good flavor and for me the spice heat was a little bit more than mild. But the green sauce was my favorite. So I order the French toast and I was like okay one slices of bread with cornflakes on top was French toast I was okay I will try it and I was very disappointed because it was literally I took a bite and I could not eat it. It was really just bread with cornflakes. The server was polite and that's about it there. The street corn was good. read more

I haven't even gotten my food, but the experience has already been disappointing. They charge $4 for ToGo containers. I asked why, and the person taking my order said, "The kitchen charges us for the packaging." How does that even make sense? If you are a restaurant, how are you not "the kitchen" as well? read more

My husband and I really wanted to like this restaurant..... The atmosphere was a 5. The service was also a 5 , but the food was not. It was so bland, I am not even sure a 2 is really warranted. My husband, who has the most basic palate I know, even said it was bland. The ingredients looked fresh, but the flavor wasn't there. The only item worth eating were the chips. They were fresh and not greasy, but the blended salsa tasted more like tomato soup. It is the only Mexican food restaurant where we left more than half of our dinner on the plate. read more

Places is beautiful. That's why I picked that restaurant out of all in the hotel. Also, I love Mexican food so I'm thinking how can they disappoint. But just the service overall was 3/5 everyone around me I feel got a different experience. They got recommendations and a nice friendly server I feel like I was being rushed. Then I got the shrimp fajita and it wasn't very hot like they usually are then they brought the table next to us the same thing and there fajita was sizzling to the gods very disappointed... read more
