    This place is absolutely fantastic! The food and service are outstanding. I'm already counting down the days until my next visit. Despite arriving late, we were served our food quickly, and it was simply amazing. I was so engrossed in enjoying the flavors that I almost forgot to take more pictures. The chips, salsa, and beans were unbelievably delicious, and the fideo soup was an absolute delight. The portions were generous, ensuring a satisfying and delicious meal. Overall, the food here is scrumptious, and you won't be disappointed.

    Food was very good, on time and good service. The only down side was that the server didn't knew about a plate on the menu, had no clue about a sauce whatsoever 😳 ai was surprised to be honest..... must restaurants expose their employees to what they have to offer. Not sure what happened here....

    5-star cocktails and portions, 3-star food flavors. The dishes here were huge, you will easily get full with only one main dish. There were so many things to choose from on the menu as well. The dishes I tried were nothing special though. The grilled whole fish was way too dry and no flavors at all. The shrimps with cheese and beans were pretty pleasant, I recommend that.

    The service is always excellent here! There’s always a bit of a wait so try to make a reservation if you have bigger parties. The food and flavor always is great. Our group got a little bit of everything and all of it was delicious. If you’re not into spicy make sure you get milder flavors because they are VERY spicy. I enjoy the chips and salsa they set at the table along with a sopa de fideo It’s a little salty for me but still tasty. The guacamole is made infront of you and the drinks are always so good!

    What can I say? I am more than 100% satisfied. Food is The most important in every restaurant and this one was really amazing. Authentic, tasty, big portions. Service? Astonishing. Javier and all the team from the start until the end took care of us like a family. Prices are good and what you get is more than expect! Thank you for this experience and I promise I’ll come back with my next visit to Vegas!

    We came here because of the rating and we have to agree, it lives up to the hype. We shared a beef fajita and handmade corn tortillas. It also came with a cup of soup which was very tasty. I had a Mexican mule and my wife had a margarita. While I enjoyed my Mexican mule, my wife said her Margarita was weak. However, our waiter corrected the issue by bringing her an extra shot at tequila. That seemed to satisfy her.

    One of best American Mexican restaurants I have been to. Food was just simply outstanding, and service is equally high quality. Definitely order the guacamole .. They prepare it fresh in front of you at your table.. can't beat that. The tortillas are also prepared fresh and you can see them being made. Overall a great dining experience. It's a bit on the pricey side but totally worth every penny.

    I really wanted to love this place because of all the great reviews. I'm going with it's okay. The service was great. Your lunch somes with a cup of soup & chips and salsa. The meal was very heavy and I only ate about half. I felt very ill and had to sit there for a while and use the facilities before I left. The receipt said if you aren't offered dessert then it is complementary, I wasn't offered, but I felt so gross I didn't even ask about it. Good decor. Parking lot is tricky and small. The chips and salsa weren't all that good but the beans had a good flavor.

    Las Vegas classic. Very customer service oriented. Lots of people here to help. Menu and food about what you'd expect for large Mexican restaurants. Ample selections, but nothing I've had that really blows me away. The star here is the operations. They've been doing this for a while and always make it look so easy. Very efficient, very friendly. Lots of birthdays here always, no if not a fan of mariachi or the b-day song...you should skip it.

    ABSOLUTELY HANDS DOWN ONE OF THE BEST AUTHENTIC MEXICAN RESTAURANT I HAVE BEEN TO HERE IN VEGAS! To start you off you get a little bowl of sopa de fideo, chips, salsa y frijoles. We ordered a Plato de chilaquiles (hubby loved it) I got enchilada y chile relleno (loved it) daughter got a Plato of Beef tamale y enchilada (she loved it). It was her birthday so she got a birthday shot y una canción y un postre! Hands down loved this place! Guacamole made table side! On the side note: They do not have enchiladas Michoacanas (disappointing) lol, but it’s ok! Waiter Luis was awesome, very attentive!

    We had very high expectations of this place. We had a 20 minute wait and the place was packed! We were so excited about the food. The service was great. Our server Jose R was on top of things so we still tipped him 18%. Parking is free. They have a bartender cart outside that serves beers and margaritas while you wait. When we got there we got a little buzzer and we were told that we had a 20 min wait. I don't recall if it was exactly 20 minutes but it wasn't that bad. Our drinks were mediocre. The lemonade tasted like Minute Maid and the strawberry margarita had fresh strawberries in it but I couldn't tell if there was tequila in it. Our appetizer was the queso fundido and it was really tasty but I think I would have preferred guacamole or something different because the cheese was too heavy. The main course came with fideo soup and it was really good. It was very flavorful. The tortillas were homemade and very good. The corn and flour tortillas were both very good. Their bean dip was so bland and free salsa wasn't good at all. The chips were good. Last the mole was terrible. It just had an weird taste and I still cannot figure out what it was but it had a bad aftertaste. We spent $$73.31 on food and drinks. $12 tip. We won't be going here again.

    10/10 loved it here ! If you can, leave the Strip for some real delicious food! Every part of this meal was delicious from the bean dip and tortilla chips at the start, to the drinks! I loved every dish (we share and try each other’s food) The service was super good and efficient, some folks may not their style of constantly coming to the table and taking plates, asking questions, etc. But I didn’t mind, but just a warning !

    I found this local spot after reading several 5 Star reviews. Upon entering, I was greeted by the hostess. After waiting five minutes, I was escorted to my table in the dining area. I ordered several dishes all of which were very flavorful, seasoned well and cooked perfectly. The time between my ordering and receiving my food was well within 20 minutes. The portions were large and priced accordingly. The decor on the walls were very representative of a Mexican restaurant and made my meal more enjoyable. Our server, Antonio was great. He was very personable, friendly and took a genuine interest in our satisfaction. The dining area was clean and the table settings were neatly arranged. With that, I can see why this establishment has garnered such high marks from customers. I definitely recommend this spot if Mexican food is on your agenda.

    A friend recommended this place, but it was well off the beaten path that I had my doubts. Needless to say I will definitely be eating here again. We loved the homemade tortillas especially. Everything we got here was a-maz-ing. Friendly staff and excellent service. It is a large building with 3 different dining zones so perfect for large parties.

    Drinks were good. Free chips refried beans and salsa (hot) although some chips were soggy. Veggie tacos tasted blend and did not have much flavor without salsa. Veggie enchilada tasted okay. Have had Mexican food else where and food here didn’t not top any of them. This place is okay for nice sitting Mexican dinner in LV if you don’t want to over spend on food but still want good ambiance and reasonable priced margaritas.

    Lindo Michoacan is the best mexican in Las Vegas for a true hispanic experience. The service is superb, the environment is lively and the food is over the top tasty. You cannot go wrong with ANYTHING. From the complimentary chips, beans and salsa to the table side guacamole and fajitas. The tastes and freshness are outstanding. Well done!

    The BEST Mexican Cuisine in Vegas! With 33 years of experience and 3 locations, Javier Barajas spent years mastering the secret of Michoacán Cuisine. This place is absolutely fantastic! The food and service are outstanding. Love the ambiance, decor and mariachi band, who go from room to room singing. From mouthwatering dishes to serenading mariachi bands, it's a party you don't want to miss! Some of my favorites: 🥩 Novillo al Cognac - New York Steak, mushrooms, onions, touch of cream & cognac $31 🍖 Chamorro de Becerrito - slow braised Veal Shank $50 🐙 Pulpo Al Presidente - octopus $26 🔥 Lindo Flameado $9.95 🥘 Caldo de Pollo, Camaron & Pescado $24 🍉 Watermelon juice 🍈 Cantaloupe juice 🍸 Margarita 🥃 Rompope

    Don't eat here if you like watered down flavorless AmMex food. The chips, salsa and beans are delicious and fresh. Order the margarita with orange in it. It's amazing! The Verde sauce has a nice pique but I am in live with your Rojas sauce. Great smokey tomatoe flavor that pairs with the cheese very well. I loved my homemade crispy taco shell.

    I think they change managment I'm a regular client since more than a decade. Food its nothing compared to months ago. Service not good as I expected to be. It was a lady on training which have to introduce and let us know that she was a server on training but nobody around shadowing her. Take a look at this plate. Not even mentioning has no flavor at all.

    Was greatly surprised, I thought heres another chain mexican restaurant with basic food but was completely wrong! The food was so amazing and authentic! The service was impeccable! I had the tamales, and let me tell you I usually only eat my moms tamales but this place did not disappoint, the masa was so flavorful and there was plenty of meet to masa ratio!

    This is one of the best Mexican restaurants we have been to. The service was amazing. We came during the dinner rush on a Friday night ad got seated right away. We ordered a couple margaritas and they were absolutely amazing. We tried something new and I'm so glad we did not only was it cooked to perfection but they were very fast. Some of the best service ever and to top it off an awesome mariachi band. We will definitely come back.

    Food is always great, customer service is excellent, warm and cozy atmosphere, hand made tortillas and live mariachi music on certain days. Great spot for breakfast as well and they have good cafe de olla. The decor is authentic and beautiful.

    This place probably doesn't need another review it was packed... And the entire crew seemed used to it. I can't recall a time where I was at a restaurant that was this busy yet nobody on the crew seemed stressed or even phased by it. They're used to this place being absolutely filled and the waiting area overflowing.

  • 5/5 Maria R. 5 months ago on Google
    Every time we go to Vegas, we stop at this place. The service is top-notch, considering the restaurant is always full. I don't need to recommend any specific dish. They're delicious. And, the best part of the meal is the fideo soup before every meal--delicious.

    I’ve come here a few times here and overall I’d say this is an okay place, there is a lot of inconsistencies in there food and service, sometimes it’s really great and others not so much. What I think is a deal break is the price for some of the items they have on the menu, I had order the Mar y Tierra ( which would be the surf and turf) and honestly for the almost $50 the steak is tough, over cooked, I struggled to cut the steak, the shrimp was a tad over cooked but okay, I was just disappointed bc for that price I expected more, and I’ve had other dishes from their menu that tasted and were better prepared than this dish for half the price, like the fish tacos are very good well seasoned overall well rounded dish. Overall as a whole the restaurant is good/okay it’s more of a adult/couples restaurant. But it is still family friendly, staff is nice not always very attentive just depends on the server, just wish they were consistent on quality and preparation of there food and well as service

    First off, I love Mexican food and have tried it all over the world. I truly enjoy authentic food, great salsa and an excellent margarita. This place has all of that. Upon seeing the site, which I attended in the evening, it is inviting, clean and safe. It is not on the strip which I liked. When I walked in, I loved the atmosphere. Bright, clean, walls covered with authentic Mexican artifacts, and even the hostesses were dressed in authentic traditional Mexican tops. Service was friendly, fast and helpful. Ordered a margarita (srawberry) and I honestly can say it was the best margarita I have ever had. Smooth, tasteful, fresh strawberries and just refreshing. The food was excellent! I had steak with an enchilada and beans and rice. Very flavorful and done just right. Home made fresh tortillas made there on-site. Almost forgot to mention. not only do you get with your meal chips and salsa which is the norm. We were also given bean dip and a cup of their Fideo soup. Excellent! I will definitely be going back when I am in town again. Note, I have traveled alot and try Mexican/ latin food all over and this is now one of my favorites. 5 stars all around. You can't go wrong here.

    Only one trip so far but do far so good. As a large upscale restaurant I enjoyed it. My chicken fajitas were tasty with a good level of spice. Even though I finished all the tortillas with only half the ingredients met I'm sure their would have given me more. As it was I was full and just took my food home for lunch the next day. I would recommend getting the more special margaritas. The bottom dollar $10 version may be large but it is also weak and definitely not homemade. Next time I go I will get the $13 version and report back.

    If you are looking for a traditional, authentic, delicious, mexican dining experience then you have to try Lindo Michoacan! As soon as you walk in you are greeted by friendly faces and the smell fresh tortillas that you can watch being hand crafted. Their menu has delicious offerings of traditional Mexican dishes such as fajitas, enchiladas, wet burritos, a variety of delicious seafood, and specialty dishes like the Cognac steak. They have fully stocked bar with amazing margaritas that come in several tasty flavors...and yes they have a happy hour from 2pm-5pm!
