Authentic Mexican dishes, happy hour, Sunday brunch, great margaritas

"Local chef and restaurateur Leticia Mitchell opened Leticia’s Cocina and Cantina at Boulder Station Hotel and Casino on August 27, her fourth restaurant and second partnership with Stations Casinos. The cantina was built to resemble a Mexican hacienda with large flowers painted on the homey white exterior wall and string lights dripping from the ceiling in a dining room that has the feel of a courtyard patio. Mitchell insists on only serving freshly made tortillas and relies heavily on family recipes. That means every dish — from the roasted poblano soup to the mole chilaquiles, and quesabirria tacos — feels intentional. Ask about the Comida Corrida menu, a daily three-course special approachably priced at $18." - Ryan Slattery

"A new location is opening at Boulder Station this summer, replacing the now-closed Guadalajara restaurant; led by a chef who earned national attention on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, the concept is known for dishes like birria quesatacos, shrimp ceviche, and Mexico City–style enchiladas suizas and expands the chef's existing stable of stations and fast-casual spots." - Janna Karel

"A member of the Station Casinos family since 2001, restaurant options included the 24/7 Cafe Fiesta, an outpost of the Feast Buffet, fine dining at the Fuego Steakhouse, Leticia’s Cocina, plus Villa Pizza and Fatburger within the food court." - Bradley Martin

"I can get a three-course meal that includes one appetizer, an entrée, and a dessert paired with a glass of wine, sangria, beer, or a margarita for $30." - Susan Stapleton

"The original full-service outpost from chef Leticia Mitchell that remains open at Santa Fe Station and serves as the basis for the new fast-casual expansion; described as a full-service Mexican Cocina operation that informs the menu and concept for the Arts District project." - Bradley Martin
