1 – Mariscos Playa Escondida – This hidden gem is off the Strip and a favorite among visitors and locals, alike. Just wait until you try their seafood platter, which features the best choices on the menu, all in one spot. Chow down on shrimp cooked three ways, crab, scallops, and fish.

3 – Casa Don JuanCasa Don Juan might be the best Mexican food that Las Vegas has to offer. They understand that no two guests are the same and customize the dining experience for anyone who walks through their doors.
