Where to find classic restaurants and bars in Las Vegas | Eater Vegas

"Javier Barajas learned to cook when his grandparents, Timoteo and Ninfa, sent him to study at the seminary in Michoacan. There, he learned to cook from the nuns. In 1990, he opened his first Mexican restaurant, named for the beautiful state in Mexico. Hand-made tortillas and carnitas are the specialties here, but Barajas recommends his steak and lobster dishes. Now three outposts of the restaurant dot the Las Vegas Valley. This location on Desert Inn closed after a sinkhole engulfed the dining room in November 2020, but reopened with a complete makeover." - Janna Karel
