Tacos, cocktails, brunch, and Pink Brunch Saturdays
"A pink neon monkey marks the entrance to this downtown Mexican restaurant. Executive chefs Daniel Arias and Isidro Marquez-Castillo created a menu of regional Mexican classics and an inventive brunch menu with dishes like corn flour pancakes with strawberries and tres leche espuma, tacos with beer-battered shrimp and roasted green habanero salsa, and seared beef barbacoa served over savory baguette-style bolilo bread." - Janna Karel
"Operated by the same management group behind several Fremont Street venues, this newer restaurant focuses on Mexican and South American dishes and has become the current kitchen home for chefs Daniel Arias and Isidro Marquez-Castillo, who previously led the culinary program at a nearby Latin American spot." - Janna Karel
"A nearby restaurant that has become a destination for chefs who came through Vegas Test Kitchen, including Daniel Arias and Isidro Marquez." - Janna Karel
"A themed 'Pink Brunch' offering pink-hued food and cocktails and encouraging attendees to dress in pink; guests receive heart-shaped sunglasses and paper fans as part of the experience." - Janna Karel
"Offering a boozy Pink Brunch every Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., the Tulum-inspired downtown restaurant serves five pink cocktails and brunch dishes like pinole pancakes topped with strawberries, potatoes with fried eggs and chorizo, and chicken enchiladas, with a strawberry and rose sorbet with mint meringue for dessert; customers are encouraged to dress in pink and receive pink heart-shaped sunglasses with brunch." - Janna Karel
