Best Contemporary Mexican Restaurants in Downtown Grand

Started off that I was late to my reservation. Being such I received a call from the Hostess to confirm if we were still coming. She was very nice a professional over the phone. All others in my party arrived before me so upon my arrival I was nicely greeted by the server and she quickly got me up to speed. She was helpful with the menu and got us all settled in. Food was excellent (Carnitas tacos with black beans) and my Cadillac Margarita was very refreshing after a long day. The restaurant was lively and I can say that I really enjoyed myself.

As always great food, service and drinks, if you are looking for a delicious brunch this is the place to go.

This was our first time trying Leoncito and we really enjoyed it! I recommend trying La Sirena or the Paloma to start with drinks. Our server was awesome and made great recommendations for food. We ordered the carnitas burrito, Baja fish and barbacoa tacos, and street corn with chips and salsa. The flavors were delicious and not overdone at all, and the red salsa was actually the star of the table! The entire staff was so nice and made getting our food and clearing our table so easy. What a great spot for our date nights!

We loved Border Geill. We were looking for a patio, and this fit the bill. The food and service were great. The salsas with the chips and salsa were amazing! The only thing is the signage in Mandalay Bay is poor. There is no signage for the restaurant until you’re nearly there. It took my husband and I almost 30 minutes to find it.

The best parts were the cocktails and the service. The food was ok. I had the shrimp diablo and it was cold and kind of soggy. We had the taquitos and they were soft, not what I expected. Overall it was ok.
