    Menudo and Flour tortillas
    Wolf M.

    The menudo was hot and flavorful. It was not as spicy as I would have liked, but mildly spicy. Condiments (onions, cilantro, pickled carrots and Jalapenos) were available on a cooling table. Fountain (Coke products) drinks and fruit juice were available. The utensils were plastic, as was the bowl, but the cost was better $6-4 less than other places. The background music was Mexican. I prefer the music for the ethnicity of the food. Good ambience.

    Quisiera poder dar 0 estrellas . Muy mal recomendado lugar . Cada ves está más sucio y más caro ordené dos órdenes de tacos con 5 tacos por orden . Me pusieron los tacos en papel aluminio todos envueltos . Nisiquiera me pudieron poner en platos para que no se aplastaran. Servicio de ordenar por el teléfono también muy horrible . 0 estrellas definitivamente

    If you are looking for a great taco special on a budget but with great flavor this is it ! The service is quick and efficient with much love . Grab your number and wait . The place has many tables to sit down and enjoy with the family .

    Carne asada burrito
    Nisa C.

    I always call ahead to pick up my to go order. Carne asada burrito and pozole are flavorful. Price is great considering the amount they give. The place could be a smell a little better and a lil cleaner but other than that i don't mind.

    Asada Burrito with everything. I added extra onion/cilantro

    I'm from CA where we have amazing taco spots so I have high expectations when it comes to Mexican food. I've lived out here for 8 years and can say I have finally found my go to taco spot! 10/10! The asada burrito was so delicious! And the salsas are so good too. I will be back!

    Heard that the chicken Mole here was exceptionally good on other reviews. It was busy when we got there, but it was my first time trying chicken mole, and it was good. Place is definitely a hole in the wall. But the staff were great at taking the order and making the food.

    Caldo de Res
    Elona K.

    Caldo de res is delicious, as well as the birria and the menudo that my hubbi loved very much!!! Such a hidden gem, if you love as authentic Mexican food as it gets this is it!!

    QuesaBirria   large Fountain Drinks (pineapple / mango)

    Hidden gem that was recommended by a friend of mine. She raved about the tacos. Especially the quesabirria. So that's what I got. Let me say it ain't the best Birria in town BUT they are really Good!! Very meaty and cheesy. The consome was flavorful. I also got a large drink mixing pineapple and mango and happy to say they have Fresca (refills when dine in) on tap! Very refreshing! Service was fast. The vibe for me wasn't it so I took it to go. But otherwise I would come back to try other things on the menu and that's saying a lot for a picky eater like my self.

    Great authentic little spot! A little busy on a Saturday afternoon but to be expected when the food is this good. Friendly service makes it even better.

    Stopped in here after having it on my radar for a few months. It's more of a fast dining/self service experience. Line up to order, stand/sit to wait for the food until it is called and then walk up to pick it up. Self service drinks, throw away your own trash, etc. so if you want service, this isn't for you. They are efficient and the line to order moves fast. The food took about 8-10 minutes to be prepared. They have 15'ish tables inside to eat at. Entrees are served on single use plates. However, the food was good and the prices are fair. The inside is relatively clean. The place was fairly busy when we got there but we did find a table.

    Portion sizes are great and the food is incredibly flavorful. As someone from southern california, this place is definitely authentic. I got the quesabirria tacos which are advertised at this establishment and they were amazing! They only come in threes so prepare to eat lol! If you like a bit of spice definitely grab their red sauce and add it in otherwise it's a good choice for people who aren't into spicy food. Also the pickled radish and onions that came with it add a nice acidic and crunch to the tacos. If i'm ever back in Vegas i'm 100% stopping here.

    Hola Modern Mexican is a fantastic spot to gather with friends or family for a great meal--or just…read morea few delicious drinks. The interior is clean, welcoming, fun, and definitely photo-worthy. The staff and service were personable, friendly, and very accommodating. I ordered the dinner special, which included a shredded beef taco and a comforting bowl of albóndigas soup. We also shared the guacamole, which was delicious and featured a unique, seasonal flavor twist. To finish, we split a slice of tres leches cake, and it was easily one of the best I've ever had. I'll absolutely be returning to Hola to try more of their menu, especially since it's so conveniently close to home.

I really like the interior decor which is like a very contemporary and upscale Mexican. They have a variety of table and booth seating and a large bar. Our server, Hunter, was very friendly and attentive. He always ended every interaction with "have fun!" I tried the "el corazon" sangria which was delicious! It had a wonderful, warm flavor with a light hint of cinnamon yet it was still cold and refreshing! A cool tip - each drink comes with a little card with a symbol on it and the drink ingredients. Save this card! At each table is a game board of sorts that offers various prizes as you match the cards on the game board sort of like bingo. We really enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa, and we tried the traditional guacamole with vegetables as well. The guacamole was wonderfully cool and creamy and flavorful. For my entree, I tried the chicken fajitas which is served on a steaming platter with various accompaniments. This was also very delicious, and the chicken was quite flavorful and juicy. A small side note - it was served with a cous cous of sort, but I think I would've preferred a simple Spanish rice. The chicken portion size also seemed a bit smaller than when we get fajitas at Chili's. I would recommend you get double meat if you want to share. We decided to try the chocolate flan and the fried ice cream sundae for dessert. I preferred the flavor of the flan and the unique textures of the flan which had the jiggly caramel flan part on top of a more cake like chocolate part below. I honestly think the fried ice cream was not too good. It did not taste freshly fried, and the coating was very dry and brittle and hard to eat. I prefer the places that serve the fried ice cream warm with a very bubbly crust that is both crunchy outside and a bit soft inside. This was not that. Overall, though, we really enjoyed the dining experience here! We will probably return and try their weekday "Fajitas and Ritas" special! I recommend Hola!

This place is not worth your money. You can get better quality food and larger portions for one-third of the price at Don Tortaco. Yes, this place is THAT bad. We ordered the carne asada nachos, a chorizo breakfast burrito, a bean and cheese burrito, and two strawberry churros. The breakfast burrito honestly wasn't bad. However, it was $20, and I still felt like I needed another burrito afterward. The carne asada nachos looked were made with a mix of ground beef and carne asada instead of just carne asada. The most disappointing item was the $15 bean and cheese burrito. I included a photo in this review because it was mostly tortilla, and the cheese wasn't even melted. As for the churros, we originally ordered regular churros, but they told us they didn't have plain churros available on a Friday night, so we were pushed into getting the strawberry ones instead. Despite being strawberry flavored, they were drenched in cinnamon and sugar. They were awful.

This is a place that you need to make reservations and come nicely dressed. No flip flops, no shorts for men, no baseball caps. They have a VIP Lounge for their Members, including a Hidden Menu for them. Ambiance is very romantic, low lights, music, performers staring at 8pm every night. Perfect for a romantic date, business dinner or celebrating something. Food is Mexican upscale an very exquisite. They have original drinks and each dish is beautifully decorated. We ordered a Matcha Martini (can't even describe how good it was). For food we had the Crispy Calamari and Chicken Enchiladas. Perfect for sharing, delicate and it is a explosion of flavors in your mouth. Service is so outstanding, Mariah and Jesus were our servers. You get assigned two servers even being a party of two. Since entering the restaurant we were treated like VIP and everyone said Happy Anniversary to us. They had even read our special instructions of dietary restrictions (gluten and dairy free). At the end of our dining experience the Chef sent us a Dairy Free, Gluten free and Vegan dessert on the house to celebrate oour special day. It was such the perfect touch to end our dining experience. It was our first time here, we will definitely come back and reserve for a later time since the only thing we missed were the performers because they show up later at night.

In short, the food is delicious, the drinks are consistently good, the service is on point and the vibes at night scream date night.

They have great variety of cocktails and getting them is an experience all on their own. Each drink and its presentation are unique to one another. Great IG worthy drinks. As for the food everything was delicious and the proteins tender. Portions are pretty decent for this type of place. Also they're on online so you can kind of splurge a little if you want to Not sure if it's every night but I have seen live musicians and fire dancers there.
