Bandito Latin Kitchen & Cantina

"Bandito Latin Kitchen & Cantina was the previous occupant of the space at 325 Hughes Center Drive, which has been vacant since May 2019." - Bradley Martin

"Bandito Latin Kitchen & Cantina, the Mexican restaurant from Kent Harman, closes on June 9 after two years in business at the Hughes Center along Restaurant Row. 'After two years of serving guests in Las Vegas, we have made the difficult decision to close Bandito Latin Kitchen & Cantina,' Harman, the owner and operator says in a press statement. 'Bandito was a project of passion of ours and we are incredibly proud of what we achieved in that time. Unfortunately, we opened what we consider a great neighborhood restaurant without the neighborhood, but will continue looking for a great location to hopefully serve our guests again in the future. We’d like to sincerely thank everyone who supported us during this journey and hope to see you all again soon. Our last day of service will be June 9.' Bandito opened in June 2017 in a new 4,000-square-foot space in the Hughes Center. Natural light fills the restaurant through its 30-foot tall glass windows, while diners could sit around a huge bar with butcher-block counters, hand-laid tile, and a 30-foot steel shelving structure. Local artist Brett Rosepiler created two huge murals of “Bandito” and “Rosie” in the main dining room." - Susan Stapleton

"Bandito Latin Kitchen & Cantina has a Black Friday happy hour from open to close with $5 margaritas and half-priced appetizers." - Susan Stapleton

"The 4,000-square-foot Bandito Latin Kitchen & Cantina opened a year ago in the Hughes Center with a mix of rustic and modern decor, including finished metals, hand-distressed woods, and bright colors, all lit with natural light that fills the restaurant through its 30-foot tall glass windows. A hand-pressed tortilla station anchors the open kitchen, while the rectangular bar features distressed butcher-block counters, hand-laid tile and a 30-foot steel shelving structure that houses the liquor and a pair of 60-inch television sets. Local artist Brett Rosepiler created two huge murals of “Bandito” and “Rosie” in the main dining room that seats 150 in the cantina and dining room, and also on its outdoor patio." - Susan Stapleton
