Alebrijes By Chef Paco

OMG!!! This is a MUST stop when you are in Vagas! You can enjoy a great meal while watching the zip liners from the outside terrace! The food was great, the service was great & we had a wonderful time spending our time with the staff. The virgin margaritas were simply delicious. Everything here is fresh made, hand chopped & beautifully served! The carne asada was tender & delicious along with the grilled chicken..When I say "EveryThing was delicious," EVERYTHING was delicious! Great place to hang out as well!! You will not be disapointed at Alebrijes!

To no fault of the restaurant (they weren't even aware, until we made mention of it), but they went ahead and immediately contacted whomever they needed to make aware of this matter that the escalators and elevators were all down, so we had to walk up 3 flights of stairs to get here. On the positive side, it sure made those blended margaritas taste even better!!! First time here and we'll definitely be back next time we visit. Shout to Marvin (the martian), amazing service brother!!! Excellent food and vibez!!! ALOHA, K&J🤙🏾

I recently moved to Vegas and celebrated my birthday this past Friday. A couple of friends came into town, and we stumbled upon this hidden gem. Let me start by saying I love authentic Mexican food—I even travel to Mexico often just to satisfy my cravings. And honestly? This place serves some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had… even compared to Mexico itself. We grabbed a table on the patio overlooking Fremont from the third floor—such a cool spot. We started with margaritas and queso fundido. The margaritas were strong and flavorful, and the queso? Absolutely AMAZING. For mains, I had the birria tacos, while my friends ordered pozole and cochinita pibil. One of them literally had tears in her eyes because it reminded her of her Tía’s cooking—that’s how authentic and incredible the flavors were. Do yourself a favor: find this third-story treasure and treat yourself to some of the best Mexican food around. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed I almost forgot to mention the superb service I received from Nelson our waiter.

Authentic Mexican Gem on Fremont Street! This restaurant is an absolute must-visit if you’re looking for authentic Mexican food in the heart of Fremont Street. The flavors were spot-on — fresh ingredients, perfectly seasoned dishes, and portions that left us full but wanting more. The drinks were equally amazing — vibrant, refreshing, and crafted to perfection. The ambience was fantastic — lively yet relaxed — and the view overlooking Fremont Street made the whole experience even better. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy great food, sip on a margarita, and take in the energy of downtown Las Vegas. Highly recommend! 🌮🍹✨follow the signs to the back of the building , use the elevator to the 3rd floor. You will not be disappointed. Also try to flan ! Delicious

My friend and I had a wonderful dinner. We were served by the lovely Alex. He was SO friendly and accommodating, he made our experience super special. The mole was out of this world and the enchiladas are were a must try! Definitely give this place a go as you'll love it. They also have karaoke nights. The restaurant is located on the third floor. Thank you Alex for everything!

From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for a treat. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, but what truly made our experience exceptional was Alex, our waiter. Attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly. He elevated the entire evening with top-notch service and great recommendations. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every dish tasted authentic and packed with flavor. It’s clear the kitchen takes great pride in using fresh ingredients and traditional preparation. The highlight of the night was the margarita—perfectly balanced and refreshingly smooth. Easily one of the best I’ve had. We capped the meal with their house-made flan, which is prepared fresh daily. Creamy, rich, and just the right amount of sweetness—it’s a must-order if you visit. I wholeheartedly recommend this place for anyone looking for a delicious, authentic Mexican dining experience. We’ll definitely be coming back when in Vegas.

My husband and I thought we would try this place since we love and cook Mexican food quite often. The food is pretty good. The rice is different. The mole’ is great. The salsa is excellent. Margaritas are totally worth it and the ambiance is out of this world! I think the service could be better but wasn’t too bad. I highly recommend going here. Monday’s are 30% off for locals.

My family and I came to Alebrijes By Chef Paco to celebrate my Grandma’s birthday. The food/drinks were delicious very authentic. Service was amazing. They were so attentive and kind. We were provided complementary birthday flan that tasted so good and birthday shots for everyone. They made our family lunch fun and special.

Amazing find! Came here after a show at the Noteriety feeling hungry and loving the theme. The server was very nice and welcoming, the atmosphere felt festive and authentic. We had the roasted corn (amazing), chicken enchiladas with the mole sauce (YUM) and the cochinita pibil (sooo good). All dishes were fire. First time trying cochinita pibil and it was just perfectly flavorful without being too rich. We couldn't finish everything and had a little to go home which was awesome. Bill for an appetizer and 2 entrees with left overs did not even hit a bill including a decent tip. We were pleasantly surprised to find a great restaurant on a whim. To top it off, server brought out a flan on the house, and my boyfriend said it might be the best flan he's had- really creamy and pretty rich so don't let the size fool you, it was filling. Saw they have drag brunches and now planning to try that!!

Comenzando desde que entramos nos atendieron amablemente Servicio excelente Las bebidas fantásticas, ordené chiles rellenos que estaban superó buenos Les recomiendo ampliamente Alebrijes restaurante de chef Paco Sobre todo el mejor flan de que probado en mi vida Las chips con un toque de mole excelente Gracias por todo

Las Vegas Restaurant Week 2025 adventures continued with dinner at Alebrijes Cantina by Chef Paco at the Fremont Street Experience on Wednesday, 6/11/25. This restaurant was hard to find! We looked all around based on the address for the restaurant. Couldn't readily find it. Had to call and ask for directions. It's on the 3rd floor down in an "off-shoot" of Fremont Street. There's no visible signage for the restaurant until you walk down towards Denny's. Then you see a sandwich board type sign. $40 dinner: Started off with the runner brining us a little order of chips and mole. YUM! Very good mole. First course: I ordered the Panuchos: homemade corn tortilla with black beans Cochinita pibil, fresh avocado, pickle onions, and queso fresco. Delicious and savory. The meat was moist and the corn tortilla was light and airy. Second course: I ordered the Mar Y Tierra Tacos: Corn tortilla with toasted cheese, guacamole, chipotle ancho dressing, salsa pasilla, steak, grilled shrimp, bacon, cilantro onion, and queso fresco. The steak on this one was a little over cooked but the salsa pasilla and the chipotle ancho dressing helped. Nice surf n' turf tacos. Great flavor. But the corn tortilla fell apart easily so made it semi-messy. Third course: Flan: Chef Paco's family recipe, available in 2 amazing flavors: traditional vanilla or coffee. I ordered the coffee flan; which was a dense flan with a very light coffee flavor and the caramel sauce under the flan worked well together. The restaurant is decorated very authentically "Mexican" and the various little figures through-out the restaurant were super colorful and great mural artwork by the stage. Our server was super friendly and attentive. Quick to get our orders out to us and get us whatever we requested quickly. Very good experience and priced well.

Getting to the restaurant is like a treasure hunt, on the third floor, you have to navigate through a run down open air 3 story mall. The place is actually a fancy place that overlooks the fun below. There was a live DJ there singing for about 6 tables. The food is good and the bartenders will work to make your cocktail the way you like it. The service was a little slow even though the place was empty. Overall I would return when back on Fremont.

I have been wanting to check this place out since it opened and my only regret was why did I wait so long! We just had some chicken tacos and a margarita but they were absolutely clean, fresh and delicious!! The service was impeccable and I cannot wait to come back in the warmer weather as they have an incredible outdoor bar! If you are in the Fremont area do not pass this place up! It's a total hidden gem tucked behind the Heart Attack Grill.

INCREDIBLE meal and cocktails and service!!! The tortilla soup was the best ever! Fajitas, enchiladas and carnitas tacos all delicious and the flan..... insane!! Maps takes you to the location but you don't see it..... it's on the 3rd floor!! Marvin was our server, top notch!!

Craving authentic Mexican food? This is the place! The service is...mwahhhh and the decor is unmatched. The food is amazing- we did a variety of appetizers, salads and tacos, all with complete approval of everyone in our party. The views from the balcony are awesome and we had great music to accompany the meal. It's a relatively new restaurant, but one you don't want to miss! If you are going to dine at Alebrijes, it is on the third floor, so don't lose faith- keep navigating!

I cannot say enough great things about this place. It's a must-visit spot when in Fremont. Although it's a little hidden away on the third floor, it's absolutely worth it. From the moment you walk in, the hostess warmly greets you. My group and I were quickly seated, and our waiter promptly took our drink orders while also suggesting some appetizers. We had a chance to look over the menu, and everything sounded amazing. Since I wasn't very hungry, I ordered carne asada nachos, complemented by a Paloma for my drink. My husband chose carne asada tacos along with a draft beer. Our friend joined us and went for carne asada and shrimp tacos, also with a draft beer. Everything was delicious, and the wait staff was very attentive to our needs. Towards the end of our meal, Chef Paco came over to greet us and brought us a complimentary flan. He was incredibly humble and shared that it was his mother's recipe. Before we left the restaurant, we spent some time talking with Chef Paco as he shared his inspiring story of how he became who he is today. It was truly humbling that he took the time to connect with us.

Food yummy! Service excellent and ambiance fantastic. Don't miss this hidden gem when you're in this part of town. I'm serious. We ordered a wide variety including carnitas tacos and enchiladas and wonderful cocktails. Not the overly sweet pre done mixes. They make their own and it shows. Please don't waste your time or money on a chain. Come check out some great Mexican cuisine!

The food was amazing!! The service was amazing as well!! We had Claudia! I loved that you see and hear everything going on at Fremont without being in it!!! Definitely recommend!

Shrimp crevice was excellent. Star of the meal was the salsa that comes with the chips and salsa. Flan was thick and creamy. Service was excellent also. Only problem is the restaurant is a little difficult to find. You have to walk off Fremont and take an elevator to the 3rd floor.

Such an wonderful spot! Large venue if you wanted to dance. A very pretty place! Located on the 3rd floor just so no one gets confused like us lol Our server, Claudia is amazing at her job. You truly can tell she cares about what she does. She made our dinner fun and gave us a great experience. Chef Paco came to our table and he was very kind! Would definitely bring more family and friends back.

My boyfriend and I were heading down to Fremont Street and were in the mood for Mexican food. We noticed this place on the second floor so we thought we would give it a shot. We got seated right away. The hostess was very nice. The restaurant was actually bigger than I thought it was. They also have outside seating. They have both table and booth options. I did notice a very small stage so I'm not sure what events they may have there, but they may have some. We were greeted pretty quickly when we sat down and given our menus. My boyfriend and I got tacos and a burrito. We did order a soup, but unfortunately, it came out cold and because it seemed like it was microwaved when it came back to us, and not fresh we ended up sending it back. The tacos were absolutely delicious. One of the best tacos that I've eaten. The steak was tender and very flavorful. The burrito was also very good. We did have a nice waiter. Though there was quite a bit of time where the staff got busy and we were waiting quite a long time to be checked on. I did feel like if we sat outside we probably would've been helped a little bit quicker. It was a little surprising to me that ourselves, and only one other couple were inside at one point and with all the people working there, no one came to check on us. The portions were a pretty good size. The tacos were so good though I do wish it did come with four tacos. The chef did come introduce himself, which was nice. I would come here again. I did like the food and there's a few other things that I would like to try. I do recommend coming here if you're in the mood for some good Mexican food. They do have restrooms inside, though I did not use them. They did have a TV on and some music playing. The restaurant was really clean and nicely decorated. It is located on the second floor. You can use the escalator to go up.

Husband and I went to try it out for date night. The decor and ambiance were fantastic! Service was spot on... unfortunately, for my husband and myself, the food was subpar. I got the chile rellano with rice and beans. The chile rellano was overcooked and underwhelming. The rice was a bit on the crunchy side. My husband ordered the shrimp tacos. He said they were alright, but nothing to get excited about. We also ordered the guacamole and chips. The guacamole was clearly not made to order, it seemed like it may have been made in the morning and that's what was still there at 7pm. I know they have only been open a month, so I think we will wait a bit so they can work their kinks out and maybe we will try again.

Excellent food music and place ! Best view of Las Vegas Fremont. Great service I love it!

Love this place! Super impressed from the start. The chef sat us on the patio for an awesome people watching experience over Fremont Street. The service was excellent from the second Kayla greeted us. She was insanely knowledgeable about the menu considering they just opened. Everyone loved what the had to eat including the complimentary dessert they gave us! I can't speak for everyone by I know I will be coming back here every time I'm in Vegas.

Food was amazing, every single dish had a special taste to it, the mole reminded me so much of my grandmother's mole the taste of peanuts and chocolate was amazing. The restaurant decor was amazing, the bright colors took me back to my childhood. Entertainment was fantastic. Great experience.

Very friendly staff and photographer! Food was good. Excellent service. Restaurant is on the third floor, a little hard to find, but we're seated right away.

Great food, fun atmosphere, awesome view and AMAZING drinks! 10/10 I will definitely be back!

Food, Drink, Service was all 10/10! If you're downtown, make sure you visit this spot! The food is amazing! The drinks are perfect! And the service is unbeatable. Kayla was the best On top of that, the location is really cool, inside and out. Chef Paco was amazing, greeting and talking to us himself. He's got some great ideas and we're excited for the future of this restaurant!

I was looking for a great Mexican restaurant to cap off my week here in Vegas, and Alebrijes did not disappoint! I have lived in Southern California for the last 12 years, got married in a small town in Mexico, and I've had the best and the worst of Mexican food. I would not hesitate whatsoever to recommend this place to any enthusiast of Mexican cuisine. I started with the guacamole and salsa with a special side of Chapulines. Even if you are a bit nervous to try the delicacy, I highly recommend it for the out of this world flavor. For my main course, I had Conchinita Pibil, which was marinated and slow cooked to perfection. The drinks were phenomenal - I had one tamarind mezcalita and one regular. The service was phenomenal - Daniel had great recommendations and guided me through the menu with a great depth of knowledge. Chef Paco was kind and welcoming and 100% deserves your business. I would highly recommend this spot.

Fantastic place, 10 out of 10 would recommend. Arrived at 5:45 on a Monday and hardly anyone was in here. Walked right in and got food. Great service great food.

Came in on a date night and it was dead. The hostess was a little rude and off putting but whatever, still wanted to try this place. We ordered the Guacamole, chips and salsa as appetizers and the were both flavorless. A bit of a disappointment. We ordered the shrimp cocktail and the panuchos both very good. The waiter did only check on us like twice and wasn't very friendly. The highlight of the night was the drinks. If the service was better and the starters had better seasoning I would have given a better review!

Delicious food and great drinks. Super clean restaurant. Restaurant was pretty empty not sure why , this place has great potential. I just think maybe they need to make better signs on how to get to the restaurant. It's on the 3rd level at the corner which has great views of downtown .

This restaurant has a warm and inviting atmosphere that feels like home. Every corner of alebrijes is Instagram-worthy! The combination of vibrant colors and chic decor makes this place a visual delight! Our server brentlee was amazing accommodating every request with a smile he ensured we had everything we needed and made the evening special.The Food was absolutely delicious 10000/10 "Churros are a must try"

We went today to Alebrijes and it was amazing. Our server Kayla was very attentive to our request. We ordered some fajitas (not pictured), the Mar y Tierra, and some piña colada. Definitely authentic Mexican food. We had a flan delivered to our table on the house. The flan was very creamy and delicious. Chef Paco came to our table to greet us. If you're in downtown Las Vegas I recommend you to try Alebrijes.

Wanted to try it out for Restaurant Week, but when we arrived there was no restaurant week menu and we did the math and it was going to be about the same so we ordered from the normal menu. I tried to the Enchiladas, and my bf ordered the Cilantro Garlic Shrimp, we also got the Panuchos and the Mole Chips for appetizers. The panuchos were super good! The meat was good and the shells were soft. The Mole Chips were also a good starter, definitely a traditional mole taste! The enchiladas were really good! They reminded me so much of my dads enchiladas, that have that homemade taste to them! Rice and beans were a good side! My bf said he liked my plate better than his shrimp plate and i don't eat seafood so i can't review those, but he was underwhelmed with the presentation and the sides. It felt basic to him, he also wished they were more saucy. We got the coffee flan at the end and it was super creamy! I was too full to eat more than 2 bites, but my bf enjoyed it. Overall it was a good experience! The service was friendly! They didn't bother us too much! But kinda took long to come around with the check, I was ready to go. The ambiance was very Mexican focused! They had Juan Gabriel playing then went to Sonora Dinamita! Restaurant was clean and it was kinda empty! We went on a Friday night and the restaurant is super spacious!

Best Mexican authentic food I've tried in a minute chef Paco is the best from his mole chips too his short ribs with cheesy mashed potatoes and table side delivery. Alex one of most educated of culture definitely appreciated.

My family and I came here while exploring Fremont street. We wanted Mexican food and found this place on yelp. I LOVED the decor bright, colorful and very open. We were seated immediately. Our waiter Marvin was so kind and attentive. Our food came out quickly. We all ordered different tacos and everyone loved them. After lunch Marvin brought us a complimentary flan. I don't normally like flan but this was delicious. Highly recommend this place. It's on the third floor and a little out of the way but so so good.

Located on the 3rd floor of a very sketchy building. Should have gone with my gut to turn around and end this questionable experience. No surprise, there were no customers. Again, why not turn and leave? A sweet hostess/server quickly ushered us in and into a booth. No wanting to commit too much to this experience, we opted to not have cocktails and have ice water. Asked if we wanted appetizers and we said we're ok with complimentary chips and salsa. OMG, no free chips and salsa. Again, why stay? Fine, we ordered carne asada burrito and carnitas plate. While we waited for our food, the TV played mariachi and Spanish music videos. Then they opened the bar windows to let the 107 heat in. UGH! Our meal finally arrived. Let me tell you, after the first bite of my carnitas, I felt nauseous. The meat was spoiled. We told our server. All she offered was 'Oh'. No apologies, no refunds. The burrito had more rice than meat. Overall a really bad experience. My husband and I paid and quickly left. We were lucky not to have food poisoning. Couldn't believe that the small portion of spoiled carnitas cost $30. Next time I would go with my gut and turn away. So many red flags to avoid this place.

Just wanted some food authentic Mexican food and let me tell you it's the best! Great drinks and service! Shoutout to Kayla she was so helpful

Great experience at Alebrijes! Bartender Brentlee took care of us all the way. Great service and even better food. 5 star service with a great Fremont experience view. Can't wait to come back!!

Big shoes to fill here - this top floor space is beautiful - and gigantic. Let's hope this high caliber cuisine will convince enough folks to explore the ruins of neonopolis to find it.

Food was amazing! I got the alebrije salad with chicken and it was delicious. My husband ordered the mar y Tierra tacos and he said they were also great. The ambiance was beautiful-picture Disney's Coco, but in restaurant form. Alejandra was our server and she was very sweet and attentive. We also got margaritas-passion fruit and mango. Probably the best margaritas I've ever had. I already want to go back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

A New Mexican restaurant that serves high quality food with fresh ingredients. Beyond happy this place exist as I stay nearby for work and they have late hours. Staff is beyond hysterical and kind. Very attentive and they gave us a tour of the restaurant. Please bring your friends and family here. It's spacious and the margaritas are the best in town!

Stepping up to the main counter we were engaged by a friendly face expressing their gratitude for coming to the restaurant, we are shortly lead to our table, which was an overlook of Fremont Street. Within a few moments we were greeted by our waiter where we ordered drinks and a few apps. The restaurant had a nice laid back old school feel which was nice to hangout and relax. We were told there's live music after 10 however there was no live band that night. Less than 20 mins after ordering our drinks and apps they arrived to the table, we ordered some chips and chicken nachos. All were good and had an authentic taste to them, we chilled on the overlook area and enjoyed the nice weather and good food before heading out. The experience was complete and proper, I talked with Chef Paco and he seemed like a very nice guy. If you go to Vegas and looking for some great food I highly suggest Alebrijes.

5 Stars. Our server Kayla was awesome. If you're looking for authentic, flavorful Mexican food served with heart, this is the spot! Every dish we tried--from the street tacos to the enchiladas--was absolutely delicious and clearly made with love. The homemade salsa had the perfect kick, and the margaritas were spot-on. The service was incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel like family from the moment we walked in. One note: it was a bit warm inside, but honestly, the atmosphere and food more than made up for it. Just dress light and come hungry! Highly recommend for anyone craving a cozy, satisfying meal that hits all the right notes.

This place is amazing. The environment is amazing. Super sad we missed Karaoke but Marvin was awesome. Definitely recommend their espresso martinis !!! Great service from the whole staff!

We came here on Saturday evening. We had pozole and quesabirria tacos and they were amazing! Juan was our server and he was very attentive and very kind. Chef Paco came out to check on us and see how the food was. The place is decorated well and has a pretty unique mural. You can see Fremont Street from the restaurant. Overall our experience was amazing and we can't wait to come back next time we are in Vegas.

The food was amazing. Customer service was top notch. Gabby was extremely sweet she had great recommendations. The view is phenomenal I will absolutely be back. If you are anywhere near Fremont or downtown Las Vegas come check it out you will get an amazing experience.

We are members of the Rotary Club of Downtown Las Vegas and decided to have a Social at Alebrijes by Chef Paco . What a great experience we had. We had drinks, appetizers and Tacos throughout the evening . The service was wonderful... thank you Claudia and thank you to Chef Paco for the great food. All 20 of us loved it. We are looking forward to many more events at your fabulous facility.

Came in on a sunday night. The food was good and the service as well. We will definitely come back

Fantastic lunch, excellent service and beautiful atmosphere. The margaritas were fabulous.

The flan is to die for, as is all the food. Claudia was super attentive, and so sweet. The restaurant is lit! 5 stars all the way!

Great service great food and great ambiance. Even the restrooms were decorated nicely. The owner came out to make sure everything was perfect. They even have really cool items to buy, if you like. We were on vacation so went right after they opened for the day but I would love to come back for brunch and the drag show. Highly recommend and we will be back!

Great location over looking Fremont St. The outdoor patio has amazing views. We ordered guacamole, queso fundido, churros and drinks. Our awesome bartender Víctor took great care of us. Everything was fantastic, and we will come back soon!

Had the steak (Asada) burrito. Very good! They brought it out quickly and the service was outstanding!!!! I recommend stopping by.

Our server Kayla was very informative about the menu, she was personable and overall the food was very fresh! We will be back, thank you!

This please is beautiful and the food top tier! Gabby the bar tender was amazing! Definitely will come back!!
