  • Leoncito is the newest restaurant to open at Station's Red Rock Casino in Summerlin Las Vegas. Leoncito is bringing classic and modern Mexican food to the Red Rock and it opened just this week on November 7th. As always, I order quite a variety of dishes and together we're going to see what this restaurant is all about.

    What's your favorite Mexican restaurant in Las Vegas?

    • @Mickcotton
      @Mickcotton 11 месяцев назад +3

      Casa Don Juan is a great Mexican restaurant. A little above average & a close resemblance to good restaurants in Los Angeles CA. It’s somewhat Americanized but the food is plenty good. Chips w/ Bean Salsa & Big Burritos. Great Chili Relleno’s & Hard Shell Tacos 🌮 Order Double Cadillac Margarita’s & Pacifico Beers 🍺. Excelante Amigo’s. Cheers 🍻

      Tacos El Gordo. I crave these tacos when I'm in Vegas. The meat is so flavorful. I am not fond of rice and beans in all of the Mexican food so a BIG plate of tacos hits the spot Yum!😊

    I think this restaurant is depending on the people not wanting to leave the property to eat. The prices don't seem competitive at all. Not sure how long that will last with all the other choices in Vegas. If they're going to charges higher prices, they need to deliver with the quality and quantity people expect.

    • @VegaswithShin
      @VegaswithShin  11 месяцев назад +5

      Agree wholeheartedly. People staying at Red Rock, eating off of Station Comps perhaps are the target audience I think. I would hang out at the more lively section of the restaurant for chips and salsa with a drink sometime though instead of eating. The vibe in the restaurant was great. But agreed, I'm curious if that's enough. We'll see how the place does. Thanks for watching!

    I can't believe how small the watermelon tostado appetizer was. Three round chips with a bit of watermelon on it. I usually expect Mexican food to be fairly inexpensive and not steakhouse expensive. The tacos looked good and so did the ribeye steak. Thanks for the informative video.

    • @VegaswithShin
      @VegaswithShin  11 месяцев назад +2

      I think that's what makes upscale Mexican a tough business because most see it as cheap eats cuisine. I can get a lunch bag full of tacos for $10 at a local taqueria so it's tough paying upwards of $9 per taco at a place like this for sure. Thanks for watching!

The specialty pineapple, the queso fundido (seriously, this feels like something that should never run out), and I got the mole poblano because they were out of the chicken milanesa.

    The decor and ambience is gorgeous. However this would be a pass for me. The prices for what you received was way out of line. The portion sizes were tiny except for a few. Opening day or newly opened and they are already out of their featured drink plus an Appetizer? The color of the tortilla was a major turn off as it was not a very appetizing color. That fish taco looked like it only had about 1 Tbs total of fish on it. The food portions, the visuals and the horrible music did not match the beautiful decor. $50 for a cocktail? I would never spend $344 + on Mexican food when down the street is probably 10 x better for a fraction of the price. Thanks for the review and video Shin!

    Great review. The food here seems very overpriced which is kind of sad. Station casinos use to be the place to ho for value but this seems to no longer be the case. I get that Red Rock and Green Valley are higher end but the fact that you got 3 chips for that watermelon tostads seems like horrible horrible value. Do you ever do reviews of Boyd properties? If so what is the value like over there? I have heard good things on the Sam's Town steak house.

    • @VegaswithShin
      @VegaswithShin  11 месяцев назад +1

      Agreed, value proposition for quantity of food is low here. The watermelon tostada really set the tone for the rest of the meal lol. In regards to Boyd properties, I recently made a video from the Market Street Cafe at the California Hotel. Value wise this doesn't even compare; You get so much more food there. But it's not exactly and apples to apples comparison. I haven't tried the Sam's Town steakhouse but I'll add it to my list! Thanks for watching!

I have seen better come out of Uncle Ben's Spanish rice packets. Unless I had player points or food credits, based on this video, I would pass. Not that you made it sound bad is just what I saw the prices did not match the food portions coming out with some quality issues. If they are charging for the Vases on the wall I can go to Ikea and see that. I think the portion sizes is a major no thank you. They charge a lot and skimp on what they give you.

Off camera, I'm usually eating McDonald's or Panda Express. I'm not all that high up at Station casinos for comps quite yet, but if I have comp dollars available at the particular resort I'm making a video at, I'll use them. But my RUclips earnings cover the majority of my video costs and so I'm only putting in about $100-$200 of my own money most months nowadays.
