Food is so delicious! Especially the Birria Queso tacos with the consome dip. A must try!

Milpa absolutely exceeded our expectations. From the moment we took our first bite, you could tell everything was incredibly fresh, especially the handmade tortillas. Every single dish we ordered was outstanding. I had the chilaquiles along with two birria tacos, and the tacos were cooked to perfection. The meat was savory and flavorful, while the tortillas had the perfect crispness and enough bite to hold up to the juicy birria without falling apart. My wife ordered the chicken adobado bowl, which was just as impressive, and the fresh tortillas that came with it were phenomenal. We enjoyed everything so much that we're probably leaving with some of their fresh masa to take home. If you appreciate quality ingredients and authentic, handmade tortillas, Milpa is absolutely worth a visit. read more

Slightly disappointed . They had no conchas when we went in. We spent a litte $45 for 3 tacos, horchata and café de olla (no refills). Shrimp taco, rib eye taco were both spicy. The birria queso taco was tasty with the consume and the apple empanada a nice small sweet treat. The flavors and quality is really good with the tacos but the quantity and pricing suffers. Also considering we have to order at the register and then sit to get my order. I would go back to try there bowls but not the tacos for that price. Thats why I'm giving it a 4 stars. In hind site, I would try Taco y Taco. They have bomb street tacos! read more

I was visiting my Dad in LV Love the vibe of this place I ordered the fish taco and mushroom taco - they were both very flavorful and tasted great, the fish taco was a little spicy which was good! read more

We really enjoyed eating breakfast here. It is small and quaint place, showcasing art and products from Oaxaca. The menu is inspired in the gastronomy of that state, so don't be surprised when you read "blue-corn" masa, actually, give it a try. From the Café de Olla to the Tetelas, every dish is delicious, service is fast and attentive. read more

After seeing so many people raving about this place we had to come and try for ourselves! It feels very modern, clean and earth tones aesthetics when you walk in! The gal at the cash register was very nice and helped us choose the tacos we were uncertain about getting and gave great recommendations! We ended up trying almost all the tacos! They were out of the ribeye tacos so we gotta come back just for those but by far the best was the birria tacos with consumé and the Barbacoa tacos! lots of flavor and came out hot! 10/10 would recommend to all my friends and family! read more

I just moved to the area and want to try everything...this was my first choice, and it hit the mark! Everything was fresh and inspired, with complex, layered flavors. The chips were crisp and lightly seasoned, the guacamole was perfectly chunky and bright, and the corn was creamy and just slightly smokey. My favorite was the mushroom taco- the blue corn tortilla set the stage for the savory, meaty mushrooms. I used the green salsa on everything because it was that versatile. The guava drink hit the spot on this hot day as well. Excited to try more of the menu! read more

The food at Milpa is sooo solid even though I got it delivered from DoorDash. Who knew you could find tacos better than some of the spots in LA and SD right here in Vegas. The birria was extremely tender and had a lot of depth in the consomé. A lot of spots in SD and LA have it stewed too long or boiled too heavily, so while it's tender, it ends up dry. This spot nailed it. The fish taco was solid and perfectly seasoned. The al pastor was alright, not nearly as good as what you'd get carved off the trompo at street stands in LA. My favorite dish was the ceviche, which had a lot of depth and smokiness from the chiles. I'll definitely be back! read more

When I came to visit a friend in town, he told me he wanted to go here and another place. When I looked it up I was delighted to see that I had already bookmarked it as a place to try. We had a pup with us and in the yelp review we saw that they were dog friendly. When we got there, we didn't see any outdoor seating so I popped in to see if we could bring her in or if we needed to get take out. To our relief they told us we could bring her in as long as she stayed under the table and was on her leash. No problem. There are several tables allowing for many group sizes with the bathroom outside, which was very clean. We ordered a bunch of stuff to share: Cilantro lime shrimp Barbacoa beef Birria tacos Apple empanada We got extra blue corn tortillas that were served warm. I got a Horchata matcha which was refreshing. The food came out quickly and it was all very good. The tortillas were soft and warm. The barbacoa was super tender and flavorful. The birria is some of the best I've had in a very very long while. The shrimp were well cooked as well. The apple empanada was delicious! The apple pieces were diced into tiny cubes with a yummy masa wrapping coated in sugar. Everyone who came by and helped were super friendly and welcoming. Such a great experience. Definitely get off the strip and check this place out!! read more

I finally checked Milpa off my Yelp bookmarks, and now I'm wondering why I waited so long! It was absolutely worth the wait. We started with the chips and salsa, and the salsas were on point. My favorite was the red, and I loved that they were served warm, it makes such a difference in flavor compared to the cold stuff most places serve. The queso birria tacos were delicious the braised beef was incredibly juicy, and the consomé had a great flavorful kick to it. I also really enjoyed the suadero tacos, which were so tender. But the real showstopper? The beer-batter fish tacos. Wow! Every flavor combined perfectly. The space itself is super cute, clean, modern, and simple with nice plant accents. Plus, the staff was very friendly and welcoming. I'll easily be a regular here from now on! read more

Low key embarrassed to admit that I went here for brunch twice in one week but y'all...Milpa is really that good. I went here on a recommendation from a friend and it did not disappoint. Out of the two dishes I tried I'd say the Huevos Rancheros was my favorite but the Chilaquiles were just as great. You can't go wrong with either option. Service was very friendly too. Staff was accommodating to any questions I had and were quite chatty. You order at the counter and they deliver your items to your table. Here's to stopping by for a potential third visit this month! read more

Tried Milpa recently and it was a good experience. It was busy when we were there. Small place so there will be a wait if busy hours. You can really tell they put a lot of care into the ingredients--the flavors feel fresh, authentic, and thoughtfully put together. Presentation is great but smaller entrees than we expected. The tortillas are a standout (definitely don't skip them), and everything we ordered had that homemade, elevated touch. It's not your typical quick taco spot--it feels more intentional and quality-focused. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and helpful with recommendations. It's a great place if you're looking for something a little more unique and refined while still feeling comfortable. A bit on the pricier side compared to standard taco spots. But overall a good meal to try if around. read more

Small but it has a spacious and modern feel . The food was so good I tried three different tacos: shrimp, birria, and barbacoa all my favorites. You know it's good when you see grease and indeed has so much good flavor. I tried the horchata and would say it's a must try. I also tried the probiotic and prebiotic drinks. This is a gem of a place! Service was friendly and fast. read more

Finally got to visit and wondering why it took me so long. If you didn't know, Milpa is a top 100 place to visit and that's for good reason Ordered to go and the service was still fast I tried most of their tacos the standouts were Fish taco - got the beer battered Mahi Mahi. Solid and it's a must order if you like fish tacos Ribeye Asada - meat excellent but I would caution the spicy salsa paired with this. It is a creeper and will recommend getting that on the side if you don't like spicy. Queso Birria - this might go down as one of the best and cleanest birria tacos I've had. The consome goes with everything. It's not super greasy or salty. It's a great balance of flavors. The birria meat had excellent flavor and the cheese that blanketed the meat inside is the perfect complement Love that everything is made down to the tortilla. Milpa has that farm to table feel that a lot of us want. read more

Did takeout, so I imagine the food would be even better fresh. We tried the barbacoa (best taco we had), birria, lamb and ribeye asado tacos. They were sold out of the suadero (brisket) taco which we would have ordered too. The hostess was very friendly and our food was ready on time. It is nice inside, bright and clean, albeit fewer tables than I envisioned. The food was still hot when we opened the packaging to eat it. I liked the salsas they included though the tacos didn't need it. The blue and yellow corn tortillas were good, but just a touch drier than I would have liked. The ribeye asado had the least flavor of all the tacos and the meat was a bit dry but was still decent. The lamb was good, but also a little dry. The birria and barbacoa were delicious and I would definitely order them again. If you are starving I recommend ordering 4 tacos (I probably could have eaten 5 as I was ready to chew off my own arm, order 3 if you are not a big eater or just normal hungry). read more

If you're the kind of person who gets a little flutter in your heart when you see mushroom or cauliflower tacos on a menu, let me introduce you to your new happy place: Milpa. It's not to say carnivores aren't welcome as they actually have a ton of meaty choices, it's just that any restaurant that makes cauliflower a delicious showstopper gets my attention. They clearly put real effort into building flavor. A lot of the dishes come wrapped in their homemade blue corn masa tortillas, which are so good you might briefly consider committing a felony to secure an extra one. I'm not saying I would mug a grandma for a blue masa tortilla... but if there's a grandma out there casually carrying one in her purse, she should probably keep an eye on me. These tortillas are that good. While I was there, I noticed that Phil Rosenthal from Somebody Feed Phil has stopped by and sung their praises. honestly, no shock there. The food is creative without being precious, bold without being showy. Just really, really solid. The vibe is great neighborhood energy -- casual, relaxed, the kind of place where you order at the counter but still feel genuinely taken care of. It's not white-tablecloth, hushed-dining-room service, but friendly, attentive, and warm. Also do not skip the drinks. I had a pomegranate paloma that was dangerously delicious -- bright, refreshing, and the perfect companion to those blue masa masterpieces. If you're visiting Vegas, this is absolutely worth the 15 minute drive off the Strip. And if you live in Vegas You probably already know. If not, your taco standards are about to change. read more

We visited on Friday, with a party of two, for lunch and it was a very nice experience. We arrived and grabbed a table in the dining area. The place is relatively small and fills up fast. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. We went with the Birria Tacos, Barbacoa Beef Bowl, Potatoes and a Paloma Sampler. The food was excellent. They label it as healthy, but the tacos were crisp, cheesy and dripping with delicious grease. The Palomas were tasty and strong. The service was good, the waitress was friendly and responsive. Overall, a great place for Mexican fare. read more

After an early morning flight from Reno, my husband and I drove directly to Milpas for an early breakfast. At first we were surprised to see the sleepy shopping center pretty much empty. However, after ordering our food the cozy restaurant quickly filled up. The woman working at the counter greeted us and chatted as we looked over the menu. My husband was starving having woken up at 4 for our flight and not having eaten anything by nearly 9am, so he got a breakfast dessert to eat right away as well as huevos rancheros with red sauce. I was torn between the Blue Corn Pinole Pancakes and the Chilaquiles! I opted for the Chilaquiles with green sauce and scrambled eggs with an add-on of beef birria. We seated ourselves and our coffees were promptly delivered to the table. My husband enjoyed his breakfast dessert and americano. The Dulce de Leche Latte was wonderful--warm, not too sweet, and creamy! I absolutely loved the Chilaquiles! The birria was served on the side so I was able to portion how much I wanted on my dish and share some with my husband. The green sauce was the right choice. Everything about the dish was fresh, light, and delicious! I felt satiated at the end of the meal and ready for my next adventure. I was so refreshing to have cozy Mexican food that also felt healthy and light. Next time I am in Vegas, I will have to go back to try more on the menu. Already looking forward to it! read more

Today during lunch I was looking for a bite to eat and remembered a friend suggesting Milpa's, and I'm so glad I paid attention. Cute and cozy spot right on Durango. Everyone was so pleasant when we arrived. We ordered the birria tacos and they did not disappoint. They came with a side of the most flavorful consommé ever--so good I couldn't resist taking a few sips. The wait time was short, which was a plus. I finished lunch with a dulce de leche latte, which was the perfect touch to end the meal. read more

We heard about Milpa from the Netflix show Somebody Feed Phil! We were in Vegas for the first time in a while and only had one day to visit... so we ended up getting tacos for breakfast lol. Service was amazing!! The person that was helping us was kind to offer recommendations, and he was super attentive as well. The fooood: + Chilaquiles ($16.75) (4.5/5): I've never had chilaquiles before, so this was my introduction to it! I really loved how the tortillas were crispy. The salsa was SUPER good too. I'm typically not a big fan of beans, but these hit the spot for me as well! + The tacos - we got a variety! The fish taco, suadero, and birria queso tacos were all delicious. The highlight was DEFINITELY the suadero though. I really enjoyed the crispy bits of brisket. I'd come back more often if I lived closer! I feel like you really can't go wrong with most of their menu. I appreciated the self-service kiosk since it had photos of all of their offerings. I'll be back! read more

I was in the area and I stopped by to get some food to go. The staff is still very friendly and service was quick. I got the ribeye asada tacos again and I decided to try the horchata cold brew and the cute corncha they had. The meat for the tacos remains as good as I remember! The tortillas were a little too thin this time around though and were breaking as I was trying to eat my taco. It's okay though, overall I enjoyed my meal. The horchata cold brew was not very good, but maybe I just don't like the coffee. It's too bitter for me. This is just my opinion though, and for reference, I prefer sweeter coffees with more milk. Now, the corncha is super cute! I warmed it up when I got home and enjoyed it so much! I love the creative idea. Happy to have gone back and I'll continue to stop by when I'm in the area. My boyfriend and I tried chilaquiles the last time came in together and we loved it! Good portion too from what I remember. Thank you for a great experience team Milpa! read more

Prices are on the higher end but you pay for what you get for. Eating here always transports me right back to Mexico City. Food here is always the highest quality, and their housemade tortillas are unbeatable. Their birria tacos are my favorite in town, and they have some delicious and healthy bowls if you're not in the mood for tacos - although I wish the portions were a bit bigger for the bowls. read more

Gave me Ensenada style fish taco vibes and highly recommended!! Oh my...The shrimp tacos were amazing and highly recommend!!! Birria taco with consome is soooo delicious!!! Literally drank the consome like soup!!! Highly recommended!! Unfortunately the ribeye and brisket fell short...!!! Brisket was dry and mostly fat and very oily? Ribeye was cold dry and just not very tasty? Both were unfortunately one bitters and couldn't finish....Sad!! Really looked fwd to both! Highly recommend the chips and salsa!!! Do not skimp on the guacamole.....Delicious!! I know we all love the salsa verde but trust me their Orange salsa is one of a kind and soooo GOOD!! Mexican corn was also one of my favorites and loved the black beans but maybe a bit too firm? Otherwise delicious and literally drank the excess liquid!!! Definitely will be back and seriously exceeded my expectations!!! read more

Founded in early 2021 Milpa has come a long way since it took over the former Elia space at 4226 South Durango Drive, Chef DJ Flores' embrace of traditional techniques with an eye towards health-conscious cooking earning a James Beard Award semi-finalist nod in 2024. Open daily for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner with an odd location in the lot of a Strip-mall, easily missed despite the fact that Chef Flores is cooking some of the best contemporary Mexican Cuisine in Sin City, guests will find the interior quaint while service is both efficient and charming. Recently forming Nivel Hospitality Group with Aaron Cappello, their bar called Nocturno earning positive reviews in the Arts District, Milpa remains part Molino and part sit-down Café with stone-ground housemade Tortillas and slowly-braised Meats a point of pride. Simple in signage, Milpa Mexican Cafe in yellow over the door, most Entrees hover in the $15-20 range with both Barbacoa and Beef Birria with Consomme showing the sort of depth one might expect of a Vegas native with skills developed under thinkfoodgroup and Too Hot Tamales before staging at Quintonil in Mexico City.

The seating area is clean and simple. The food is absolutely delicious, healthy and fresh. I'll be a regular.

We are locals and we've been wanting to try Milpa for a while. It's in a small plaza that's not super busy, so parking was easy. Cute inside with limited seating. We visited on Labor day weekend, in the early afternoon, with a small queue at the door. You order at the front and hope you have a table when your food is ready Some people grabbed a table before they ordered, causing us to wait after ordering out food, a few minutes before we could sit down. Food comes out fast and they're really quick on cleaning up tables, so they can turn them over fast. The fiancé ordered two birria tacos and I ordered two barbacoa with a single fish taco. The birria meat was flavorful but the tortilla was disappointing. Only one was dipped in consommé and neither had any crisp to it. My barbacoa meat was tasty but I was not a fan of my tortilla either. The fish portion in the taco was so tiny, not very fresh tasting, and a little dry. One bite was enough for me, I couldn't finish it or the tortillas. The service was fast, nice and attentive. The bathroom is outside the restaurant. It has such high ratings and reviews that we had high hopes but it felt flat for us. To be fair, we are comparing it to the tacos in Southern California and Mexico that we enjoy on a regular. Maybe it was an off day or we ordered the wrong thing. We'll give it another chance in the not too near future. read more

Milpa - SINGLE BARBACOA TACO and BIRRIA QUESO TACOS - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I've had this place bookmarked for a little while. After I saw they were featured by Phil Rosenthal in his Netflix show - I just know that I had to go and try their food. I was more inclined to try because they're also allergen conscious. I have gluten and dairy intolerances so their menu with the allergen notation - helps a lot. So I tried their chilaquiles without the cheese and a couple of tacos. they taste really light and delicious - just wish the chilaquiles portion is bigger :) We also ordered the apple empanada - it says with corn masa so I tried it a bit - i had to say that it's very delicious and so good. Probably the best one out of what we ordered. Will have to go back and try other dishes soon. read more

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Las Vegas, and perhaps ever. I grew up in CDMX, and this place reminds me of home and delicious breakfast. Their tortillas, beans, and all the ingredients taste fresh and carefully selected. Their salsas have the best recipes, from the salsa for the chilaquiles to their tetelas. The mushroom tetela is my favorite. I love the variety of mushrooms and the subtle chili oil salsa de arbol. I love their huevos rancheros. I am sad they no longer have their bakery, but I'm glad they still have their amazing coffee selections. Their drip coffee is perfect, as is their Mexican mocha and their matcha horchata. I always take a jamaica water to go. It's refreshing and tastes freshly made. Their potatoes are fantastic. Their birria is a great add-on. Their tacos are always delicious. The frijoles de olla taste like my family's homemade beans. And their lunch menu options are also so healthy and filling. I always think the dishes here won't fill me up, and I'm always proven wrong. They carefully balance proteins, carbs, and fats to make their dishes delicious, beautiful, and healthy. The staff here is always so kind and welcoming. They go out of their way to make sure you're treated well and leave satisfied. It's a pretty cozy place and they manage to get everyone set with their meals quickly, and moving along. I've never had trouble finding a table even when it's at its fullest. I cannot recommend this place enough. I love this restaurant, and I hope they expand to a second location someday. read more

We were in the mood for Birria. A Yelp search and our location lead us to Milpa. From the exterior the it appears as a typical strip mall restaurant. However, step inside and discover something special. A QR code or hard copy menu will begin your journey. Lots to choose from - proteins, preparations and more. They do offer beer and some cocktails. The Paloma flight was perfect as each one offered was too tempting to choose just one. Two of us chose the birria tacos and one chose the Pollo Adobado Bowl. The food was delivered quickly to our table as well as the drinks. The Palomas were outstanding with the Pomegranate being the overall winner. The food was beautifully plated and only added to the excitement. The Birria was hot, juicy and so flavorful. The consommé was plentiful and tasty. Fresh red onion and chopped cilantro were provided on the plate along with a cup of hot sauce. I really enjoyed the Birria tacos. Very rich and tender. I was looking for something to add a punch of acid so I asked for something picked onions. They were a bit too softly pickled to deliver the kick, oh well. Our dinner mate really enjoyed the Pollo Adobado Bowl. The chicken is definitely the star. Amazingly flavorful and moist. Great grill crispness to add a bit of crunch. Delicious blue corn tortillas were a real plus. Overall, Milpas was a treasure to find and we look forward to our next visit to try even more of the menu! read more
