"A California-based concept opening a third local location in a 1,600-square-foot space, currently hiring and still in development. The menu will lean into an Asian–Hispanic fusion of treats, including mangonadas, ube milkshakes, spicy Dole Whip, and a hot Cheetos chilote." - Bradley Martin
"I learned that the third local expansion for California-based Zero Degrees will occupy 1,600 square feet near the intersection of Fort Apache and Spring Mountain Roads, is planned to be ready before the end of December, and will feature menu items such as brightly colored mangonadas, ube milkshakes, spicy Dole Whip, and hot Cheetos chilote." - Bradley Martin
"A California-based, counter-service franchise with a highly photogenic menu that debuted on the west side earlier this year and is expanding to three Las Vegas locations. It's known for mango-forward treats and creative offerings — including mangonadas, ube milkshakes, spicy Dole Whip and a hot Cheetos chilote — and is moving into Spring Valley’s Apache Center in a 1,600-square-foot space at the intersection of Fort Apache and Spring Mountain Roads (arrival date TBA). A second local opening at The District at Green Valley Ranch in Henderson was hoped for in March but has been pushed back as the team finalizes plans; that site will replace the shuttered Oil & Vine a few steps from Me Gusta Tacos and sits within walking distance of the upcoming PWKY District and Ritchie McNeely’s." - Bradley Martin
"After a recent Las Vegas debut that prompted hour-plus waits, the westside outpost will take over the former Oil & Vine retail space near Me Gusta Tacos. The California-based chain is known for wildly colorful, attention-grabbing dishes — bright red hot Cheetos cheese fries, purple ube milkshakes and fruit-topped mangonadas (including a mango slush version) — and a range of beverages such as matcha teas, coffee horchata, lychee crush and spicy watermelon drinks. Snack and savory offerings include popcorn chicken, spicy Sriracha wings, chilotes and grilled cornelotes that can be finished with melted cheese, chili powder, mayonnaise and crushed hot Cheetos. The westside location is slated to be open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. (until 11 p.m. on weekends), and a separately planned opening at The District at Green Valley Ranch has been delayed and is now being targeted for April." - Bradley Martin
"An already-open spot drawing long lines for fruity mangonadas and brightly colored items like purple ube milkshakes, hot Cheetos elote, and spicy Dole Whip cups. The concept has proven popular enough to expand, with a second location planned for The District at Green Valley Ranch." - Susan Stapleton
