    Amazing in every way!! Highest compliments to John Sosa, one of the proprietors, and his partner David. They were very hand on, made excellent suggestions, knew every ingredient and prepared everything exactly as explained. This was the best Mexican food I’ve ever had, including fine restaurants I visited in Mexico City. We started with the Fresco Ceviche and Chiccharron de Ribeye as appetizers. These were tantalizing in their own right. The Whole Grilled Fish (Bronzino) was artfully presented and expertly prepared. Every bite was a delicious treat to the last. Even what would normally be a basic Flan dessert was a next-level delight. I can’t wait to go back to Las Vegas to eat here again.

    This restaurant is off the beaten path of the Strip but well worth the 10 minute drive. Some of the best ceviche we’ve ever had started our meal & set the tone for everything being as fresh as possible. Yes fish in the desert - it’s amazing! Our dinners were recommended by the waiter (might be the owner from his command of the place!). Fantastic food - shrimp sautéed in a tomato sauce with peppers & onions along with rice and beans - amazing - and a flank steak with incredible seasoning & beans & rice. The whole experience was incredible & we highly recommend this restaurant!

    Food did not disappoint it was so delicious!! Totally would recommend and do not regret getting off from strip. Only negative I can come up with is the lack of cocktails but a beer did the job and they do offer wine selection.

    Best Mexican Food Ever. Gourmet! I was here on business and randomly picked a place to have dinner with clients. We took an Uber there and were a bit apprehensive as it was in an old mini mall. We decided to give it a try because we had plans that evening. Well, much to our surprise, the table literally went silent when we each took our first bite of appetizers. It was beyond delicious and flavorful. Each taco had its own unique taste. One of us had been to Mexico City many times and had eaten at the best restaurants there and said it superseded the best. We ended up talking about the meal all night. Everything we ordered was delicious. They do not sell alcohol but you could bring your own wine, beer. Highly recommend! Rarely will take time to write a review here but this restaurant was well deserving of a good one. We will definitely go back and have told our colleagues who also go to Vegas on business from time to time and fine dine everywhere there. It is a small, not far off strip, unique find.

    Mariscos el Fresco’sResponded on December 16, 2022We are really glad and honored that you took the time to write a review, its such a nice one! Thank you very much, truly. We are super exited that you enjoyed our cooking, its everything to us.

    We were visiting Vegas from ATL for the weekend. I booked the reservation via Opentable for my husband and I for early Friday afternoon. As we pulled into the parking lot, we thought we had made a high mistake. Lol. But instead, it turned out to be one of the best experience of our weekend! The food was OUTSTANDING!!! It is cooked to order and super fresh. It was some of best tasting food we have had in a long time. Although restaurant is in a strip mall, it could easily compete with any 4-5 star restaurant in Atlanta. John, the owner, is wonderful. He recommended dishes and chatted with us with we were old friends. We highly recommend this restaurant. We loved this place and highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed.

    Came for a buddy’s bday with 4 others. All I have to say is you better try this place before it’s so busy you can’t get a table. It will happen, this place will be difficult to get into because it’s that great. Must try tuna tostadas, the ceviche (somewhat unique & bursting with flavor), and the octopus. Don’t miss this gem!

    Food is unique and outstanding. Area the restaurant is in is a little funky and the restaurant decor is pretty basic, but the food is great—nothing like it on the Strip. Moderately priced. Try the Ribeye Chicheron or the Tuna tostadas — they are excellent. The branzino was great too! Service was friendly and attentive.

    Wow! Took the risk with this new restaurant and simply loved it! High quality ingredients, great flavors. Tuna Tostada and Octopus Pibil to die for. Ceviche was also good.
