Leoncito is a Modern Mexican Restaurant and Bar located in the Red Rock Resort in the Summerlin part of Las Vegas Nevada. This is a nicer quality restaurant that offers lunch, brunch, dinner, happy hour, and a 3 course express lunch for $35.

By the entrance you walk by the open kitchen.

Behind this main dining area is a patio for outdoor dining.

They started us off with warm complimentary chips and two salsas.

One is green fruity and creamy and the other is tomato based and spicy.

I started off with the aguachile.

It’s a refreshing plate of cucumber, Serrano, tomato, and micro cilantro.

My husband tried the Bacon Oaxacan Cheese Potato Taquitos.

They were well seasoned and very tasty.

For my main I tried the Baja Rockfish Tacos.

The fish was batter dipped and was topped with slaw, avocado, onions, crema rosa, and these unusual pickled onions that really made them pop! Those onions were unusually great…..they were very citrusy….sweet…tangy…sour…really super flavorful. The rice was very flavorful too.

My husband tried a carnitas burrito.

It also had chorizo beans, salsa verde, yellow rice, pickled jalapeños, queso fresco, cilantro, and chipotle aioli. It was also very good and flavorful.

I ordered the sundae for dessert but the ice cream machine wasn’t functioning so we both got Bunuelos (Ice cream filled cinnamon doughnuts …..doughnut dough by Pink Box)

They were a nice sweet ending.

The Express Lunch (Monday-Friday 11-3) is certainly Worth a Try!
