Lindo Michoacan

Oh my gosh! I can not RAVE enough about this place! It is absolutely amazing! They start you off with chips, salsa and beans (heads up, salsa is super spicy, so beware), and usually I have to stop myself from eating them or else I will be full by the time my meal arrives. The food is always great and I LOVE the fried ice-​cream! Side note: if it’s your birthday, they will put a big sombrero hat on you, embarrass you by singing, and make you take a shot of tequila! LOVE this place!

Stopped in here for Lunch. Amazing view of the valley! Service started off weird. After we were seated someone came to our table to take a drink order, once we gave it to him he abruptly looked around then quickly walked away. He went up to another worker and they looked confused. A short time later we got our drinks from another server and never saw the first guy again. The second server was very attentive to the table.
Anyway, on to the food. Let’s start by saying I’m very picky about Mexican food. I don’t care for places that only serve Menudo on weekends… and guess when they serve it. That’s right, only on weekends! So I ordered the carne asada tacos with rice and beans. The tacos were very good. I had them leave off the pico de gallo because I like mine old school (meat, onion, cilantro, salsa and a squeeze of lime). The rice and beans were so-​so. The chips and salsa that come before the meal were good. They also serve a small bowl of fideo (basically a noodle soup in tomato sauce and broth), it was alright, nothing like the fideo I ate growing up.
I gave LM a 3 because it’s OK. Nothing about it blew me away or stands out. I will definitely go back but it’s not a place I would say «you have to try it!!». But, go for the view and some decent food.

I’ll start off by saying I used to love this place. I would come in here with people late at night all the time because it was walking distance.
Then they changed bartenders or management a couple years ago and wow, what a difference.
I told a few people how they would ignore me and it seemed like they would go out of their way to not help me. Nobody believed me until I went with someone that was a regular there (that they always treated well). He witnessed first hand how I was intentionally ignored, particularly when there were only a few other people there. I never complain or act rude so it was very odd and something I’ve never experienced before.
I haven’t been there in a long time now and don’t plan on going back.

Just going to say, the food is always delicious. The staff is always awesome. Will recommend to friends and family!

Came in for a Sunday brunch, we were seated quite fast. As you walk in the door, you see homemade tortilla being made and you can really taste the freshness of the tortilla.
As you get seated in the back, the view is amazing. You can see the whole strip from your table. Tortilla chips with red sauce and bean dip comes next.
I ordered the combination plate 1, which comes with rice, beans, chile relleno, beef taco and an enchilada. Over all pretty good, I loved the rice. But the chile relleno was soggy. I’d go back and try the other food, they have a broad selection of authentic food.

Ahhh… The legendary Lindo Michoacan! Finally came here for the first time yesterday for my sister’s graduation lunch after hearing so much about it from friends & coworkers.
As a party of 8 without reservations, we were seated surprisingly fast! Our table was towards the back, behind the bar area, in a room with several large windows with a spectacular view — The entire restaurant sits cozily on a high hill, overlooking the suburbs and cityscape.
Service was quick & friendly as well. They’re super slick with the chip & drink refills, which can be dangerous. I’ve always said that my one superpower is filling up on chips & salsa before my actual food gets there…
Anyway, it was a great experience! The normal entrees are pretty pricey (I would say $ 20 being the average), but they do have a margarita happy hour & a lunch menu that lasts until 5:00 PM with well over 20 options to choose from — a lot of them simply being cheaper, downsized versions of their dinner dishes.

This is my favorite Mexican resturant in Henderson. The service is always great, food is appetizing and the margarita selection is goooooooood.
My favorite server is Effrian! He’s amazing. Very polite, professional and helpful. I always order the chicken con rajas y cremé. It’s my favorite dish! The el pastor is really good here as well.
The chips are delicious, with the beans and salsa. Be carful not to indulge on these… you won’t be able to finish you’re meal.
This is also great place to celebrate birthdays, as the band comes out and sings!

One of the best times I ever had in Las Vegas was back around 1997 or 1998 when the owner of this restaurant had only one Lindo Michoacan restaurant, located on D.I.
Javier bought a brand new corvette and let my friend David and I take it for a ride 100 MPH down Eastern Ave. Not sure if we ever admitted the speed we accelerated in his new vette, LOL, but we returned his keys and car within 10 minutes and not a scratch. Javier was a business client of ours (restaurant supplies via RESCO) and a very sincere and friendly gentleman.
Fast forward to the present… Tuesday evening ⁵⁄₂₄^th I brought a date to his beautiful restaurant situated up on top of the hill @ Horizon Ridge & Carnegie. Wow!
This very spacious Henderson Lindo has a lot of seating, with open kitchen, a long bar and absolutely magnificent views of the Las Vegas Valley. Of course the food is delicious too!
The friendly uniformed hostess who immediately greeted us with a smile, sat us at a comfortable table for two adjacent to the window featuring a fabulous north view.
Our waiter was extremely friendly, knowledgeable of the menu, and has been employed w/​Javier for over a dozen years. He prepared a delicious table side Guacamole ($ 8.50) for us that was served with hot crisp tortilla chips. He scooped and mashed fresh Hass avocados, tomatoes, onions, jalapeño, cilantro and freshly squeezed lime juice. Mucho delicioso!
We each were served a hot bowl of flavorful Fideo Soup. Fresh Tortilla chips, tangy salsa & hot refried beans were replenished twice as we awaited our entrees…
She ordered the Toro a la Coca Cola ($ 21) and loved her dinner. She ordered it to be prepared medium, and it was served medium. Perfecto! This entrée is a decent sized bone-​in rib-​eye steak marinated, cooked & coated in a very flavorful sauce of Coca Cola Classic soda, dried red chilies, fresh garlic, black pepper, cloves, along w/​some secret ingredients of this family recipe.
I wanted to try something I never tried, something really authentic, so I ordered the Birria De Chivo ($ 19) which is fresh goat. I don’t know of any goat farms around this part of the Mojave Desert, so I asked our server where the goat is raised. He replied California. I love trying traditional foods of other cultures, so… I ordered the goat.
It was served in a large hot bowl similar to a stew containing a broth of beer w/​dried chilies and spices. It had a nice spicy flavor, the meat was very tender, but not enough of it as I could’ve eaten a couple of bowls of this Mexican festive dish. Yes, it was really good! This entrée is served w/​corn tortillas, chopped raw onions, & cilantro to enjoy like a soft taco and then drink the broth should you choose, I did.
Although we did not do any drinking this evening, other than iced teas; they offer hundreds of tequilas to choose from. I like the motto on their t-shirts…“Save Water, Drink Margaritas!“
We’ll return again soon…

Unilocal 100 REVIEW CHALLENGE 2016: #119

My GF who lives in vegas brought me here because I wanted to eat Mexican food. It was a perfect recommendation as its a really spacious authentic Mexican restaurant perched on a slight incline overlooking the valley. This was close to Henderson and Green Valley.
Really large spacious restaurant with Gorgeous Views everywhere you sit. Really large expansive menu with so many items to choose from. Almost half the items I’ve never heard of before, it was truly authentic. This would be great for couples and large groups because it was so spacious inside.
We ordered shrimp and fish tacos and chili verde. My mom loves Chili Verde and commented it was the best she’s had, large portions and the sauce was really flavourful. The fish and shrimp tacos came with (3) each and rice and beans. It was a generous portion and exactly what I was in the mood for. Service was efficient and friendly. I saw them making Guacamole fresh tableside I’d definitely try that next time. Great Mexican restaurant I would go again;)

This place is amazing! I love the city views from the front seating window view! I called ahead of time to put in a reservation and that worked out perfectly & when we arrived there was not much of a wait time. I recommend making reservations ahead of time. I requested a window table :) Great service & fun atmosphere. I ordered the vegetable enchilada and it was so tasty and came out so hot. I love that they serve you refried beans along with your chips and salsa! Everyone was satisfied

Have to say that with all the Mexican food I have had, this is close to the best.
With the quality of the food matched with the view… this place is worth a visit.
Last night was my fifth visit and I was not disappointed.
The only thing between 4 stars and getting that fifth star is the service. It’s OK but not what I would call great. But because of the food, I am willing to put up with mediocre service. I literally asked 3 different servers for a glass of water. Finally when the food arrived «is there anything else I can get you»? He’ll yeah, a frick’n glass of water.
When in Vegas, try this place.

Amazing view of the Vegas Strip! I had a tamal and enchalada dish that was lacking in flavor. The house blended Margarita was a ¹⁰⁄₁₀. Great waiter service. Very loud environment… to the point I found myself almost having shout to talk with somebody sitting across from me. All in all I would go back just for view.

This restaurant’s view makes it worth it! It is built into a hill and an entire wall is glass overlooking the Las Vegas area. You can see the strip and everything.
As soon as you sit down, they serve you warm, freshly made chips, warm bean dip, and salsa. As soon as the basket gets low (and it will because it’s delicious), they refill it.
The menu is huge and has a lot of variety. They have a lot of unique dishes in addition to the standard dishes you find at most Mexican restaurants.
I ordered the chicken quesadilla. It came with guacamole and sour cream. The flour tortillas looked home made. The quesadilla was pretty good overall, but it was a bit on the bland side.
The restaurant is quite loud. They sing live music loudly, and people talk loudly. It is pretty hard to hear others at the table. We weren’t even there when it was very busy, and I couldn’t hear others at the table well.

I have been here many times in the past and every time I had left disappointed in the food and service. But this review is based solely on my experience today 05−17−16.
First off, I want to say that our server Manny was the nicest and accommodating server I have ever had at this place, which was a nice breath of fresh air. I had questions on what the tamarindo and Jamaica juice were and he was kind enough to bring me a sample of each which I completely appreciated. I ended up satisfied with the tamarindo.
Second off I will suggest to get the guacamole for an appetizer. I love and appreciate that they make it fresh at the table. It is my favorite item on the menu for that exact reason.
Thirdly I will say that the reason I gave this place 3 stars is merely based on my personal preference in their food. I suppose I have yet to find an entrée that I like. I have tried the tacos, Tortas and burritos and I haven’t had a single entrée I can say that I liked or enjoyed. also the menu can be vague and difficult to understand, especially if you don’t know Spanish, but again that’s were I commend Manny our server for answering all my questions and having patience with me!
So I appreciate that the service has moved up a notch or two since I’ve last been there! My time was very enjoyable I just wish there was something I could find that I could enjoy as well as my experience! But I am happy that they have improved their staff and service and I guess I will be back to find something I love! I am determined!

Mediocre, and unauthentic Mexican food, yellow cheese on everything. They fill you up with rice and beans. It’s more like taco bell served with silverware. The seafood served is not fresh and the classic Mexican dishes like the moles are run of the mill. They all lack flavor.
Long list of different types of margaritas but no matter which one you order they’re all exactly the same. Yet you pay a premium for the tequila in it.
Yet this place is super crowded, it must be the view. They have the best view of any restaurant in Las Vegas. That is why I give them two stars, well deserved.

I like this place. Huge menu, great hours, great view, nice staff. The food is not mind blowing but it is tasty! The selection is the best part, if you like Mexican food you will find something you like here. They’ve got like 5 different dishes with lengua which is awesome. Not a bad beer selection, and the margaritas are pretty good also. All around a great spot, and definitely a place in our standard rotation!

After several visits to this place I’m still not the biggest fan. Everything seems just ok.
I will say the view is incredible. Getting a table along the windows give you the scenic overview of the city with the strip in sight. Service during the lunch hour is solid. They were good about refills with several different people checking on our table.
We decided to split the Queso and Chicken Fajitas. The Queso hardened up quickly. You pretty much had a lump of cheese after the first minute it’s sitting on the table. The chorizo mixed in gave it a good flavor but I wish it was a bit more creamy so it could be dip worthy for longer.
I wish I would have known their Fajitas had cilantro covering the entire plate. Usually fajitas have a good seasoning without mixing in cilantro on top of it. I can handle some but it was excessive. The shells served with it weren’t the regular fajita size but almost burrito size. For what I prefer this dish was just ok.
I can always find something else to try but Lindo wouldn’t be my first choice for Mexican food.

The view of the strip is amazing! There are plenty of window side tables but calling in before hand and making a reservation to get one would be a good idea. It does get busy for dinner.
Went around 6pm on a Thursday. Surprisingly it was pretty busy but since there are plenty of tables alongside their huge window, we were still able to get a table with a view of the strip.
I ordered the Ceviche which was decent. My boyfriend ordered chicken fajitas, I was not impressed. Maybe we ordered wrong but from previous reviews I was under the impression that they served authentic Mexican and it was a bit Americanized to my taste.
The service was horrible. We probably only saw our waiter three times: 1.) to take our order 2.) dropped off our food 3.) for the bill. We saw other servers more than we did our own and had to order drinks from the bar because he took to long to check on our drinks.
I liked the ambiance, scenery and view but it was lacking service.
If I return it would be for a happy hour. I would definitely sit at the bar.

Great food with a great view. There’s a reason that this place has a long wait on weekends.
I must mention that the service here is really good and very attentive. On our most recent visit our waiter checked on us frequently. There was always a staff member in our section making sure that every need and want was met.
The view here is awesome. The restaurant is situated on a hill so certain dining rooms offer a great view of the valley. There is also an outdoor area that offers a nice view.
The food isn’t just the standard burritos and enchiladas even though those are awesome as well. The menu is huge and offers many more authentic options as well as the standard Mexican restaurant offerings. The chips and salsa that start each meal don’t disappoint. I also enjoy the soup that comes with most of the meals. The food isn’t as cheap as most Mexican restaurants, but I figure you’re also buying the view.
This is an awesome spot for good Mexican food that makes you want to come back.

I’ve been going to Lindo Michooacan La Loma for years, actually it’s become a part of my family go-​to spot for Mexican food. Aside from the beautiful view of the city you can see from the restaurant, lots of fond memories with friends and family have happened there.
I must have eaten everything on the menu at least once, but if I had to pick a few items I like the most its the «Chile Verde De Marrano», «Pollo Rebeca» and «Tora ala Coca-​Cola» all very delicious.
Service is great! I’ve never experienced a problem even on busy days, they are attentive and are a courteous staff. In fact, one of the bartenders her name is Erica became a friend of mine. She’s very cool, knowledgeable and a good person to have a chat.
All in all I recommend this place!

Usualmente es el unico restaurant mexicano que tiene la comida, el sazon que uno espera ! Siempre he ido y lo que pedia siempre era ceviche, enmoladas etc platillos muy tipicos !
Estoy embarazada por lo cual pues no pude comer mi ceviche como de costumbre a lo cual, pedi una lengua en salsa verde, sabor rico y todo muy bien, pero todo empezo en la madrugada que comenze con un vomito, diarrea y escalofrio horrible, pues si tal cual lo sospechaba la carne no estaba en tan buen estado o no la sirvieron a la temperatura adecuada y resulto ser ina indigestion ! El resultado fue mas de 24 horas sin poder ingerir alimentos ni siquiera agua ya que todo lo que comia o tomaba lo devolvia :(.
No digo que no regresare, claro que no pero mejor tratare de pedir comida que se cocine fresca asi no me expongo a que me suceda lo mismo, ese dia no fue mi dia ! Fuimos a festejar por el dia de san valentin pero fuimos el domingo asi que estaba ocupado como de costumbre pero no fue tanta la espera !
