BBQ Mexicana

Wow, great food and service!It's always nice to hear good morning from a store that is appreciative of your patronage!

BBQ Mexicana had all the right signs of a great spot--the food smelled amazing, the prices were reasonable, and service was fast. But unfortunately, my experience didn't match the hype.There was way too much BBQ sauce on my food, and it completely ruined the flavors. Instead of a balanced bite, all I could taste was an overwhelming, sticky mess. Honestly, it was nasty, and I wish I could've gotten my money back.Maybe it was just my order, but based on this visit, I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again.

If you're in Vegas and craving something incredible, BBQ Mexicana in the Mandalay Bay Convention Center is the spot! I was here competing in the SoCal Cup Winter Formal Tournament with my team from Colorado, and starting the day with their breakfast burrito was a game-changer. The burrito was absolutely delicious--flavors on point, fresh, and so satisfying. Pair it with their high-quality coffee, and you're set for the day.And get this: it's a fraction of what you'd spend at Starbucks, but way better in every way. On top of that, the staff is super kind, making the experience even more enjoyable. Do yourself a favor and check this place out--it's a total gem!

IMO the BEST grab and go food option in Mandalay Bay!! When the lines and wait times are crazy everywhere else, this place has little to no line thanks to their quick service. I tried the pulled pork burrito and smoked tofu bowl and enjoyed them both. They also have amazing portion sizes and pricing for Vegas!!! Around $14 for a biggg rice bowl or burrito! Not a huge fan of the smoky bbq flavoring they use on all their protein options, but that's just a personal preference (:

We had a trade show here and it was packed all around. Lines for every restaurant. There was also a food court but the choices wasn't great so my coworker and I decided to wonder more to see what is the better choice and deal. Being in the convention doesn't give you much of anything. We stumbled upon this place cause the line was a bit shorter and price was better than what other choices offered. Thankfully we got the bowl so it's less messy than the burrito. The burrito was also kinda small for $13... For 4 bowls and a bbq Chicharron, it came out to be $71. That isn't bad but portion wise it was also small.I ate the chicken "the coop" bowl. It was a bit bland and the chicharron was overly salty. Would I wait for 1 hour to get food here again? Probably not but if you have no other choice, this place is probably your best choice for food.

While waiting for hotel check in we decided to explore Delano and Mandalay Bay.Location: Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. We arrived fairly early in the morning (9am) so most of the shops and restaurants werent set to open for a couple of hours. After a while we decided we'd chose a place with quick access as we were starving after a 5am flight across time zones. As we set to loop back, we noticed the staff setting up items to begin the morning. At this point, we were able to see the wall menu and decided to give them a try. I don't think any of us expected the quality, freshness and flavor that we received. I pondered for a while but ultimately chose the brisket lover bowl. There was a seasonal margarita,blood orange, which is one of my favorite flavors. Let me tell you it definitely packed a punch!!! I added a chips and salsa trio as well. The bowl was very filling and held me over until the next meal. Nice portion size for the price.

By far the best lunch I had while at Mandalay Bay for a conference. Line moves fast, took 10-15mins to get my bowl but was worth the wait. There are some high top tables around between BBQ Mexicana and the Border Grill close by, that people would wait at / sometimes eat their bowl or burrito at. The Coop bowl was awesome - great blend of flavors and the chicken was falling apart with my fork, it was so soft and tasty! Would definitely come back for a quick but tasty and filling bite.

Absolutely recommend this place if you're looking for something to eat quickly. Located in Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino, more of the side by the convention center, next to Shark Reef and next to the food court, but not in the food court. I received my food pretty quickly after I ordered. Even though I asked for non-spicy food, the cashier assured me that the meal would not be spicy, IT WAS SPICY. The manager quickly responded and fixed the problem. They remade my order without all the spicy ingredients! The newly made food was delicious! Thank you for accommodating me with this! Keep it in mind that this place is not a sit down restaurant! There are no tables and chairs, only one table with few, maybe 3-4 bar seats. I would definitely eat here again!

Decided to try out BBQ Mexican at the Allegiant stadium and it wasn't my favorite. The burrito was ok. My tortilla was soggy and the flavors weren't all there. The best part of BBQ Mexican was the bbq chicharrones. Those were good. I would go back just for them to snack on while watching the game

I would have added a photo but I ate my burrito too fast. If my stomach could take a second one I would love to savor another. I had the Burnt Tip Burrito, one of the best burritos I've ever had.
