    Cerviche Jalisco
    Amanda M.

    We went for a For Kids Foundation fundraiser. The atmosphere is nice inside. I like the variety of seating. Tequila drink variety is good. Some were a little sweet so next time I would get the classic margarita which tasted really fresh with the lime. The shrimp tostada flavors were delicious. We got a milder cerviche for our daughter so next time, I would try spicer. Service was slow unfortunately when we got there, they only had one bartender. Later 2 more ladies came and the guy helped in the kitchen which speed things up.

    Agua chile verde and guava michelada.

    I love this place but I hate their hours!!! Micheladas and sea food are meant to be eaten during the day. Most Marisquerías are open for lunch and close early, plus micheladas are meant to be a hangover cure.

    This was a vibe! A fun spot in midtown where you can get some amazing tequila and all of the shrimp dishes your heart desires. Sadly my husband is allergic to shellfish so the only thing on the menu we could get was the chips and guacamole. But they were delicious! As were our cocktails! We will definitely be back form drinks! There is plenty of space for large and small groups! Parking behind the building or on Virginia street, but it is limited.

    Margarita with a thick tajin rim

    Vibe is cute. Staff was friendly and service was quick. What I really appreciate is the bartender actually doing a thick Tajin rim! Usually when I ask for this, they never seem to understand what thick means, but this bartender did exactly what I wanted it. The margarita was amazing. The Michelada was delicious. We also ordered guac which was very good. We did have to ask for more chips. 10/10 would recommend.

    Guava michelada and Aguachiles verdes.

    Had a chance to check out Miches Vatos and it did not disappoint. I ordered the guava michelada with a Victoria and this combo was the perfect balance of tart, sweet, and savory with that smooth, malty finish from the Victoria. I also had the Aguachiles verdes, and let me just say... some of the best I've had in town. The salsa verde had that fresh, citrusy kick, and the butterfly shrimp cut? Chef's kiss. It makes a big difference if you don't like chewy shrimp. Heads up: food took about 30-40 minutes to come out, but they had an event going on that night and were clearly slammed. Still, the place was clean, well decorated and the drinks came out fast.

    Walking in was very inviting, especially from the bartender and waitress's! They were super kind and very helpful when we had questions. Our waitress was very attentive and was amazing when she brought out more tostada shells! We didn't ask but she automatically did it. Speaking of the food, we ordered the Jalisco Ceviche and it was absolutely delicious! Well crafted and perfectly layered. The juice at the bottom was to die for. You'll want to crave more. Their Micheladas are fantastic too and always go for the mango one. Highly recommend giving them a try. It's a big expensive but worth the try. Hope they can implement a happy hour because I'd be there for that!

    Tostada Macha

    Long overdue- this is one of my favorite spots in Reno. The food & cocktails are amazing. The Tostada Macha and the aguachile are the best, and the live music is always fun.

    Wandered in on a Friday evening (~6:30pm) and it was quite dead for that time. Not necessarily a complaint, hopefully they're just picking up business with their new location. I liked the vibe, lots of live plants and it had a clean, modern feel, almost upscale. The ceviche was fantastic! Just ordered the classic Jalisco style. The bartender was super nice and brought us an extra plate and chips, unsolicited. My only complaint is the drink list - no draft beers (only bottles/cans), I can't recall if there was a wine option. It seems like it caters to more of a liquor crowd, which just isn't really my thing. I'd like to go back and try other ceviches for sure!

    So fun that this has its own spot in midtown now and not just at the Reno Public Market. We came here on a Thursday night and it was fairly slow but we loved the ambiance. Dark, moody, lighting. We started with cocktails. They were a little sweet, but the michelada was amazing. I'm a bit of a pansy of when it comes to spice, so I definitely downed my drink quickly! It was a slow heat for both dishes. Nothing I couldn't push past. Great, unique flavors. There's some items I didn't get to try. Will definitely be coming back

    The ceviche was tasty and fresh! Chill vibe for a Saturday night. Service was ok. Might be back to try other things on the menu and a tequila drink!

    Aguachile Rojo - Mad fresh and not that spicy if you can't handle the verde
    Adonis H.

    I tried Miches Vatos when they were still at Reno Public Market awhile ago and thoroughly enjoyed their aguachile verde. It was spicy, tangy and extremely fresh. The presentation was also something to note and you could tell they took their time creating a beautiful platter. I don't drink, so I can't speak to the micheladas, but they do look good and they offer flavor varieties such as mango and guava. I came back to the new location for a comedy show with my partner and we had a great time in there! It's very clean and well put together. The decor is nice and you do feel like you're at a hip club seeing a show if you get a good table. We wanted to show up early to eat and enjoy the show and got a great table to set up for awhile. My partner can't handle spice too well, so we opted for the aguachile rojo this time around and it was just as delicious as the other time we came. The shrimp are butterflied and just soak up the tangy, spicy sauce. I was happy to see that the quality remained consistent between such different visits! The service was also great, especially when it isn't too busy. It definitely seems like they could use a hand though, because once it got busy after the show, I stood at the bar for almost 10 minutes just to pay and was constantly trying to get someone's attention. Not gonna ding them for that though, business is good and they are handling it.

    Nothing left because it was so good

    YUM! I absolutely love sitting at the bar and enjoying a michelada and some ceviche here. It's always so good, HUGE portions, and super friendly staff. I usually get the Jalisco which is not as spicy, but still has some good heat to it.

    Rarely do I write a review after just 1 visit, but I'm making an exception for this little gem!…read more I've known of this place for years, but never stopped in before. I was glad that I did finally drop in. Located in a little strip mall on Valley Road, it's an unassuming place from the outside. The inside is small, but comfortable and it felt very "homey". When I walked in, the first thing that hit me was the smell of delicious food wafting through the air. The tastes did not disappoint. We were greeted and sat promptly by a personable young man that brought us water. The owner then brought us our drinks...a margarita for my dining companion and a Mandarin Jarritos for me. My sip of the margarita tasted amazing! Great balance and flavor. We also received a basket of chips and salsa. You could tell that they were made fresh to order. The chips were crispy and hot. The salsa was outstanding...fresh cilantro...balanced combination of flavors with a nice, subtle kick of spiciness at the back end. Not too spicy...just right. I usually have to ask for something hotter...not in this case. The food was amazing! My dining companion ordered the Chile Relleno plate and I got the Molcajete. The prices are outstanding and the amount of food? Huge plates! My Molcajete was sizzling hot and overflowing with chicken, beef, shrimp, nopales and ground beef mixed with veggies. A large plate of refried beans and spanish rice also accompanied this presentation. Fresh, hot, delicious corn tortillas rounded out each of our orders. We were also given a couple of squeeze bottles of sauces...green and red...to add to our meals if we wanted. Freshly made and the bottles were presented in a plastic tub filled with ice to keep them cold. Great addition to the already amazing food! There's also a nice selection of Mexican hot sauces on the table for you to choose from. We both took to-go boxes...so much food! Mine lasted for 2 more meals! I plan to return on a regular basis...this is now one of my favorite local places for great Mexican food. As always, I suggest that you visit to see what YOU think...

We ordered Aguachile (really good but super sour), pineapple jalapeño wings (too sweet and not my fave), ribeye chicharron........be prepared to cough and have the people sitting near you cough non stop lol.

    I've been to (almost*) every Mexican restaurant in Reno and this is the one I keep coming back to…read moreand keep recommending. The torta ahogada with the carnitas is a culinary delight! The bread is somehow soaked in a sauce but still crunchy just beneath the sauce, and springy/chewy in the middle. The flavors are rich and amazing. Finally you can add the spicy hot sauce if you want and you will be sweating bullets but happy about it at the same time. I also love the tacos de canasta as a fun and delicious appetizer. The food is always comes out super fast, and I leave super happy. The only gotchas are that only some of the staff speaks English so be ready for that, and that they have live music at night on the weekends, and it tends to get a little loud in the building. *I haven't been to 1 in Reno yet because it's hasn't been open the 3 times I've tried, and I haven't been to all the places in the valleys yet.
