"I wish this wasn't so far away from me.Oh well.I'm glad we came here for lunch and now know that this exists.I had the pork rice bowl with plantains.So. Much. Flavor.The pork was so tender.... You barely had to chew The perfect bite was a bit of rice, pork and plantain. A bit sweet with a whole lot of savory. Tasty Yums!The husband had the Beef Mofungo.The beef was a bit tough.The Mofungo was savory and hearty and oh so good.Plus the garlic gravy, sauce was amazing! Yes, it was garlic -y.I love garlic so it was right up my alley.Ambience is relaxing, casual.If I'm on this side of town aga, I will be sure to swing by.(We were at One Stop Trim Shop which is just a couple blocks away.)"

PADRINO’S Gourmet Latin Cuisine

"Well, it's been a LONG TIME since a business earned a 5-star rating from me! HOLY SMOKES! *This dining experience was on Friday, July 26th, 2024, party of 2, first-time diners at this establishment.Quick Things you MUST KNOW about this restaurant:- The ideal guest is someone who appreciates food & beverage quality, presentation, and time it takes to have that quality! (This is not fast food!)- It's a GREAT first date option!!! And they have a happy hour.- There's a patio, and live music during nice weather months.- Padrino's means "The Godfather"... so expect that theme ;)- It's only 3 years old, so it's clean and fresh, and beautiful and because they opened during Covid, they have VERY high sanitation standards.- There is a private dining room with a private entrance for high profile guests! I never see this anymore! So cool!!!- Breakfast is served all day! :D- The prices are completely reasonable for what you get!- AND... I CANNOT WAIT TO GO BACK!!!!! :DI live out in the NW, so I don't tend to drive 30+ minutes to get dinner, but this was an invite from a friend and after I visited the website, I decided to go for it! I actually really appreciated the location (being only 2 minutes off the freeway). I think I need to preface this review by saying, we arrived about 8:15pm on a Friday night and reasonably expected it to be busy, then walked in and NO ONE was dining in the main dining room. The place was EMPTY!!!! (there was a small group in the private dining room that was finishing up, but it was 100% just us the rest of the night!). So we felt very spoiled, but also very confused! hahaMy friend and I were seated and given a brief introduction of the menu and how it's designed/created, which was pretty fascinating! Most people see the label "Latin Cuisine" and mentally jump to "Mexican food". But this is definitely not a Mexican restaurant! Padrino's is the ONLY restaurant in town with one dish from EACH Latin country, the most authentic way possible. For example, the paella rice is imported from Spain and every dish is made to order, not made in advance and heated up. WOW! I freakin love that!My friend and I ordered the following items: (don't judge us!! LOL) - Bacon Wrapped Dates... OMG, like crack.- Traditional Ceviche (they also have mango)- Queso Fundido- Colombian Mahi-Mahi- Argentinian Lamb Chops- Patatas Bravas Con Carne- CHURROS ;P*** Guys... I can't even.... the food and beverages were out of this world amazing! My friend and I were nearly CRYING at the fact that this place was empty because we felt like ALL the locals are completely missing out on this!Ambiance:- The lighting and music were spot on. I'm interested to know if the volume of the music changes with more people inside.- The temperature in the room was PERFECT, while they had the windows open to the patio. How did they even do that?! It's July in Vegas?! LOL- There's GLITTER IN THE GROUT!!!! When you go to the bathroom, you'll see what I mean! Talk about attention to detail!!! :DPADRINO'S - KEEP IT UP AND I HOPE MY REVIEW INSPIRES MORE VISITORS, EVEN THOUGH IT'S THE SLOW SUMMER MONTHS. UNTIL NEXT TIME~"

"It was my birthday and I'm very satisfied on what I got the crispy protein wrap. My mother got the breakfast empanada and my sister got the steak and eggs. Everything was good so was my drink. I tried a little bit of my sister's peach drink it looks like an alcoholic beverage, but it's not. Tasted good when I come back here again yes everybody that was very nice. and the food there was good.!"

"I'm keeping this at 5 stars. Their status on my taco list has dropped, however. I can't put my finger on it yet. The pork belly and steak tacos were good but not amazing like last time. The store bought tortillas somehow stood out more this time... and that's not a good thing."

Salvadoreno Restaurant

"The best Salvadorian food in Las Vegas. You can't go wrong with eating at this amazing place. The popusas are the best in town."

"This hole in the wall place is a must try. My friend told me about it when we were leaving the bar and it's great they are 24 hrs. I decided to get there birria quesadilla. The meat was so tender and juicy with the right amount of melted Oaxaca cheese. Your choice of rice and beans or sour cream and guacamole. Their red salsa was a good balance of smoke and heat."

Centro America Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (102) • $$

"I was picking up an order and had a hard time finding the spot because it is completely non-descript. This establishment is for the ones who know, the beau monde of Centro America. The seating was very homely and well appointed. I think may even have karaoke or parties, it just gave off that vibe. The servers were very responsive and complimentary because they provided me with fresh chips and salsa while I waited on the order to be prepared. They were crisp and held up to the salsa very well. I will definitely be getting some food soon and updating this review."

Pupusería El Zunzal

★★★☆☆ 3 (74) • $$

"A couple coworkers and I were doing some business in the area during lunch time, when we came across Pupusería El Zunzal. We all agreed that pupusas sound great, and ate in.No wait on a weekday at lunchtime. The workers only spoke Spanish, which was no problem with 2 of us being able to translate. The menu is also in Spanish.I ordered 2 pupusas de chorizo and 2 revueltas. They came out in about 10 minutes or so, steaming hot and fresh. These things hit the spot and checked all the boxes for me as far as pupusas go!One of us ordered the plantain dish with beans and cream. It was my first time trying, given Im not super familiar with Salvadoran food. It was absolutely incredible, and I'm so grateful he shared! Sweet and savory heaven!Also, don't forget Salvadoran soda. It was my first time having it but man is it delicious- comparable to Colombian soda.Great little hole in the wall with great eats!"

"I've been to the other location and I've been wanting to visit this location but they are always busy on the weekends. I finally was able to stop by and get a table quickly. Nice quaint restaurant. It's not bad in size, but there's also patio seating. Service was a bit slow, but she was nice and working hard. She handled all the patrons in the restaurant. I had to wave her down and make eye contact. Food:CoffeeShort Rib Empanada Spicy Mushroom Let me first say the Chimichurri was so good. I didn't even use the other sauce that came with the Mushroom Empanada.Both Empanadas were delicious. I first ordered the Short Rib but then realized I wanted more. Overall, it's a great spot, and next time, I'll try the brunch items. Also, they offer Happy Hour, and I THINK it starts from 2 pm or 3 pm."

"An extremely underwhelming experience. We showed up for a 9am reservation for two, but were told they didn't have any reservations on the books. Luckily, this was not a problem and we were promptly sat. We ordered a coke, short rib Benedict and the "MF" sando on sour dough with fruit. I was surprised with how quick the food arrived, but it was sub par. The Benedict had far too much short rib on it that it was overwhelming and hard to get to the Benedict. The MF Sando on the other hand had the opposite problem, and only contained a single piece of bacon, which for $15 was extremely over priced. The sour dough was barely toasted. Overall, I would give this place another shot but definitely would not be recommending it. ~~~~~~The following information does not impact the overall review, but is provided for anyone who may find it useful:Bathrooms: there is a single gender neutral bathroom in the back of the restaurant"
