Good on point. The service was average
We got the Mexican Corn Pops
Ramen and chorizo and eggs
The Mexican Corn Pops were elote and fabulous. Covered in so much cheese
My chorizo and eggs looked gross but soo flavorful and were actually perfect
The ramen- stightky spicy. The beef was plentiful and sooooo tender. The soft boiled egg was actually hard boiled. This dish was huge
It is off the beaten path for most tourists
Was on diner drive ins and dives and rightfully so. Letty does an amazing job.
If you’re staying in the strip take the ride there then walk the he .7 mile to Fremont. Looks scary but is safe. Fremont has a different daytime vibe.
On Fremont go to the downtown grand and get the hotdog and pbr for 2.00 (10oz). 3.00 for a 16oz

This little out of the way Mexican restaurant was fantastic! Drinks are original and delicious and the entrees are familiar but with exciting new twists! Prices are reasonable for food and experience of this kind and I was full when I left. Our party tried all the specials featured on diners, dives, and drive ins and I had the loaded Bloody Mary. Recommended to anyone who loves Mexican cooking, but especially those who want a break from the usual Vegas hustle and bustle with a bit of familiar comfort food.

Heard about this place from a “Vegas cheap eats” YouTube video. We weren’t 100% sure about it when the Lyft driver dropped us off, but once inside we quickly realized we had made the right choice. We timed it to get there for their 3-6pm happy hour; the prices were very good and we tried several different items. The food and drinks were great. The lady that was working the front of the house was so friendly and helpful, it made the experience even better. Would definitely recommend this place to try somewhere different than the Strip or Fremont St.

On June 25, 2024, my son and I went to Letty's after watching a YouTube review. The video made my mouth water. The food looked SO DELICIOUS.
The restaurant is in a fairly new renovated area of old Las Vegas. The exterior was quaint and there was a small parking area for patrons.
The interior is small with about 10 tables with uncomfortable seating. Decor is standard Mexican fare.
I would say the service is "adequate" and definitely not speedy. Our female waitress was pleasant and informative, being our first time.
We ordered 2 Letty margaritas which were actually very tasty; 8/10. We each had a street taco; carne asada for me and a chicken taco for my son. It was a Tuesday, so they were $3 each. The tacos were tasty. We then ordered the Letty's fries which were not that good. I would give them a 4.5/10.
I ordered their carne asada burrito. Although it had cheese on top, it was dry inside. The burrito would be better if it came with some salsa, but that' extra. The meat was tasty but went missing in the dry burrito.
My son got the cheese enchilada dinner with rice and beans. He said the chicken was lackluster in taste 4/10. The rice and beans were good.
We finished the dinner with an order of flan. The flan was okay, 6/10.
All in all the dinner was a BIG MISS.

This was our first visit here, and based on the experience we will be back. It's a small, unpretentious place in the downtown Arts District of Las Vegas. We were here for lunch on a Tuesday and were fortunate to find a place to park for free in their lot. It was busy, but we got a table right away, no waiting. The dining room is small and on the noisy side, so we chose one of their outdoor tables in front of the building. Service was good, the wait time was also good, especially considering the quality of the food we ordered. My wife had their steak milanesa torta, and it was good. Not great, but solidly good. I ordered the chicken taquitos with tomatillo sauce, and they were excellent. The taquitos themselved had plenty of chicken in them, the tortillas were perfect, and the tomatillo sauce was outstanding. I would order that dish again without hesitation.

I’ll admit, I happened to be watching DDD on food network and saw this place and was going to Vegas a few weeks later. I went for lunch only to get the Chilangos. I thought it was very good. Crispy tortilla, tender meat, cheese and the consommé for dipping. Parking was available on the street very near the restaurant. It’s a small place with polite and quick service. It sure it’s a destination but a good option in the area.

Ok. I'm from New Mexico and I know Mexican food is different from region to region. But this is by and large some of the best Mexican food I have had in a long while!
It is a small restaurant, can maybe seat 40 max. But it is worth the trip! I had mole chiliquilles and my husband had the steak ranchero. We also place an order for barilla tacos to go. All three entrees were fresh, FULL of flavor and sooooo good! Each plate very distinct in its flavor.
This is definitely a place you will seek out to return to again and again. 10 out of 10.

So disappointed !!!! Stopped by with my family last Wednesday and there was no one available for us to order. We came in and stood in the front for about 5 -10 minutes and no one came. There was a young couple sitting inside the restaurant (probably the cashier and waiter) just starring at us. Very sad that Leticia had great restaurants and now this place that is so sad. Can’t review the food, since we didn’t get to order.

Some of, if not the best Mexican food we've ever had. That includes the food we've eaten in the actual country of Mexico. Not a huge menu, so they've been able to perfect the things they offer. Very relaxed setting with option for outdoor seating. Everything we ate was incredible. Prices were reasonable as well. This was our first dining stop on our trip. Wish we had waited. They set the bar too high and the rest all failed to reach the same level.

Stopped in after seeing the fun murals outside, fell in love with the fresh dishes inside. An authentic fast, casual Mexican grill. In house made tortillas and everything on the menu is affordable.

Hidden gem, get here ASAP. All good , tacos of all kinds, enchiladas great fresh chips and salsa. Great margaritas and plenty of modelo for sitting inside or out. Eat and walk the arts district. You’re missing out if you haven’t tried this one!

I had read a lot of good reviews on this place. So when we visited Las Vegas we had to go. Save yourself time and money. The Birria tacos are disgusting. They penny and dime you for everything. The menudo was fair. But, I could tell it was days old. I think a lot of these reviews were made up. I would go elsewhere if you’re visiting Las Vegas and want good Mexican food. Try Gordo’s on the strip.
