Flecha Cantina by Mark Wahlberg is a creative style Mexican Restaurant and Bar located in the Towns Square shopping center in Las Vegas that is not too far from the Las Vegas Strip. This restaurant is bought to you by local celebrity and resident Mark Wahlberg. (at this time) this restaurant offers lunch, brunch, and dinner. This restaurant has an outdoor patio, bar seating, booth, and traditional tables.

On every visit (so far on 5 visits) they served us complimentary fruit cocktails on the way to the table.

On all our visits we received delicious spicy salsa and chips to start on.

The pistachio goat cheese appetizer used to be so delicious that we ordered it on 4 out of 5 visits so far.

It was described as goat cheese with pistachios and spicy tamarind sauce with fried pita breads.

This is the July 2026 version below.

You can certainly see that it is no longer the same. You can see it’s a less layered sauce that is more flat and you can also see that they cut way back on the pistachios. I can’t say for sure but I think? it tastes closer to cream cheese too than to goat cheese?

The dishes we tried today were the new $20 lunch special menu.

I tried the Verano Watermelon Salad – watermelon, cucumber, goat cheese, baby spinach, arugula, cloud 23 honey mustard dressing, basil, mint, candied pistachios, option to add chicken

I don’t tastes basil or mint. The candied pistachios are impossible to identify. If they are there they are crushed so fine that you don’t really get them. The dust on the salad tastes spiced and possibly includes a candied crushed pistachio? The watermelon, cheese, and chicken are all ok. The dressing is tasty on the salad.

My husband tried the Street Tacos (pork belly, carnitas, chicken)

He said that the tacos were tasty but they were lighter with the meat in the pork flavors than the chicken taco.

The lunch specials included a soft beverage and a dessert. We both tried the ice cream with churros and took 1/2 the churros packed for home because two orders are too much to eat for most people.

The ice cream and sauces are good.

The churros are all different.

Some seem raw inside.

Some seem filled

But they all lack cinnamon and sugar on the exterior.

Below are some pictures from previous visits to Flecha Cantina.

The FORKING Truth is that EVERYTHING is subject to change.

La Casa De Juliette is a full service Mexican Restaurant and Bar located in the Centennial Hills or North/West part of Vegas. It’s a little dark inside but well lite so you can read the menu.

They currently are offering lunch and a $21. special 2-course lunch.

I tried the fish tacos. They were HUMUNGOUS but more importantly REALLY DELICIOUS! Maybe the best I’ve tried in Vegas so far.

Plump moist mild whitefish with a creamy chipotle slaw and really great tasting pineapple salsa that they call “Pina Pico de Gallo.”

My husband tried the lunch special.

He started with the wings 1/2 mild 1/2 spicy

Unfortunately today someone over cooked the wings or they would have been good.

Then he had the brisket enchiladas.

The flavors are good but the brisket is over cooked today.

Previously we tried La Casa de Juliette for dinner and tried –

Not perfect but Worth a Try!

Burrito Tyme isn’t a fancy place. It’s a small casual Mexican restaurant connected to a gas station in North Las Vegas Nevada. They offer things like breakfast, tacos, tostadas, combo plates, fajitas, cheeseburgers and bottled soft beverages. You can do take out or do some dining in.

It’s very casual. You order and pay at the counter. You pick it up when it’s ready and you can dress the food as you like with their salsa bar.

A chile relleno (fried battered poblano pepper stuffed with cheese) is tasty and you might want to give it a try.

Or maybe you want something like a taco salad.

Something more hardy is something like a green chile pork plate. (it comes with tortillas)

Or maybe you just want tacos

Not destination Mexican but neighborhood Mexican.

If you are in the area Worth a Try!

What’s Zaap? Thai Food is located in Las Vegas Nevada sort of between Red Rock Casino and the Durango. If they seem familiar to you then maybe you saw them on Food Network on Diners Drive Ins and Dives.

They also won multiple awards. Some more are on a another wall.

They have these super special Chef Sauces and seasons that you should use to embellish your foods. (Special Chef Sauce Left side one from the end)

The crispy spring rolls are so unusually good we had to get them again. (Use just a drop or two of chefs special sauce with a small amount of sauce it comes with)

Las time I got the most amazing green curry salmon that I ever got in any Thai Restaurant.

LOOK how amazing the cook on it was.

You won’t get this at many restaurants PERIOD in Vegas. Oh and the flavors were just wonderful too.

Last time my husband got the dish that is often called Spicy Basil and also Pad Gra Pao.

This by FAR is the best Spicy Basil that we’ve tasted in Vegas. It’s well infused with HOLY BASIL (in case you don’t know that is the basil that you are suppose to use for this dish. Most places just use either regular or Thai Basil) Also the protein is hand chopped creating more surface area that that means more flavor. Many places just slice the protein.

This time I tried the basil eggplant with chicken.

It’s made with sweet white flesh eggplant and the chicken is tender and moist.

My husband tried the spicy basil with crispy pork belly.

It’s a slight up charge if you select Holy Basil for this dish. He loved this dish and it’s one of his favorites.

Fine Company is a casual restaurant located in the downtown Summerlin part of Vegas. They offer breakfast, baked goods, soup, salads, bowls, sandwiches, and a few dinners.

My husband decided to try a smash burger.

The burger comes on a house baked English Muffin. This platter comes with a side and some pickles.He said that the burger is juicy and delicious.

I tried the house made pastrami rueben (no cheese).

The meat tastes like smoke and black pepper. It is also not cooked enough because the fat is hard like dental floss. This isn’t very good to me.

Fine Company – Say yes to the smash burger but NO to the house made pastrami.

Tamba is a Contemporary Indian Style Restaurant located in Town Square that is not far from the Las Vegas Strip. They have two main dining areas but on both visits we were seated in the first dining area,

They started us off with a delicious layered in flavors amuse bouche of spicy tuna with crunchy rice and interesting sauce.

Next was Madras Tuna Sashimi

great flavors and textures here

next was Truffle Tamari

Tasty but all the other dishes WOWED us more!

Both times here we enjoyed the Baked Samosa Chaat (SO FORKING GOOD!)

This is the best Naan I’ve tasted in Vegas (Garlic Cilantro) You need this with the above and below plates.

This time our main was the Banana Leaf Sea Bass

Banana Leaf Wrapped and Perfectly Roasted Sea Bass with Celeriac Puree and Edamame and other amazing sauces. DELISH!!!!!

A sweet ending with the check.

Tamba is CERTAINLY Worth a Fork!

We have THREE WSKY 24/7 gaming, bar, restaurant places in North Las Vegas. Each one is different with different menus so it is almost like different restaurants. The NEW 1435 W Craig Road Location has a smaller but sort of regular WSKY menu with breakfast, bar bites, sandwiches, burgers, entrees, and desserts. On the other side of the menu they offer a limited Mexican Menu. When you walk in the main doors you walk right into the bar and gaming but can also dine there.

We walked right through to the dining area called The Cantina.

This part is set up with traditional tables, half booths, and whole booths.

A word of warning with the whole booths.

The tables don’t have rounded corners so it is different to get seated inside the booth because you can’t make it around the corner. So you sit on the ends.

They start you off with warm powdered chips and an oily salsa.

My husband tried a T&T Smash Burger with Tots.

It looks good but is kinda average. Over cooked and a bit dry.

Ten minutes latter my meal arrives.

They gave me a nice thick cut of salmon and I appreciate that they didn’t serve me soft skin or bloodline. But this fish feels hot on the ends like from a microwave. The ends are over cooked but the middle is better. The teriyaki sauce on it tastes like chemicals. This was suppose to come with bell pepper succotash but what they gave me are like that frozen vegetable mix with squishy corn, carrots, and peas with added edamame and a BIG mound of white rice.

That was my trip to WSKY Cantina & Restaurant. I read recently that another WSKY is coming to Centennial in the spot where Born and Raised was.

Lucino’s Pizza isn’t a fancy place. It’s a Philadelphia Themed Pizzeria and Cheesesteak Restaurant. It’s located in Las Vegas Nevada kinda near to the airport.

Both times that we were here I wanted to try their enoki mushroom appetizer but both times they were out of it. So both times we had their Pino’s Poppers with cheese sauce and blue cheese dressing that is very tasty and good.

A little different than what you get at other places. Tempura battered jalapeños with some carrot sticks dressing (blue cheese or ranch) and their house made cheese sauce made with Cooper Sharp Cheese.

Las time I had their Steak Hoagie Sandwich that they call a Philly Philly but this time I tried a pizza slice.

This tastes like something that you’d get in Philly. Good cheese. A rich very good sauce and a nice thin crust.

But their Cheesesteak …..

Very Good Roll (seeded or unseeded) Ribeye, fried onions, hot cherry peppers, Cooper Sharp Cheeses)

REALLY REALLY GREAT!

Able Baker Bomb Shelter is a Craft Beer and Sports Bar Type of Restaurant located in Centennial or what is North/West Las Vegas Nevada. The opening chef is from Fontainebleau’s Mother Wolf Restaurant and that is pretty big for Centennial. It’s not a fancy place and it’s a bit loud inside inside with big screen TV’s, a separate bar area and two outdoor patios.

Dining Room

On my first visit (Opening weekend)

We tried the cauliflower appetizer

I thought that it was slightly over cooked and possibly blander than it should be but both main meals were very good.

I enjoyed the Strawberry Fields Salad with added Salmon.

The salad was tasty and the salmon was nicely prepared.

My husband enjoyed the pork belly dip.

It was a bit short on the onions but the pork was very good according to my husband.

We even tried dessert since the chef was the pastry chef from Mother Wolf on the Las Vegas Strip.

It was the lightest cinnamon bun ever made with ube gelato. It was very delicate and also delicate flavor-wise too!

Went back with some friends and tried the Lunch Special Pastrami Sandwich (special order no mozzarella cheese) It come with your choice of salad or fries. Here’s the good. The side salad was good and the fresh baked in house bun was good.

The roll is dressed with a dijonnaise that is pretty much just mayo, a few pickles, really HOT Fresno chilies, and it’s missing the pickled onions. I’m not a fan of the pastrami. It tastes mostly like the flavor that curing salt gives and some black pepper. I also don’t like the texture. I think too much Prague powder (curing salt might have been used?) It’s missing the flavors and smoke that pastrami should have. It should have tastes of juniper, coriander, allspice, garlic, bay leaf, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, onion, mustard, peppers. This can pass as cheap dollar store lunch meat so it was disappointing.

Someone else at our table said that the pork belly tacos were good. I know my husband enjoyed the pork belly dip. I had a strawberry fields salad with salmon that was good and a friend also had the strawberry fields salad but with chicken and she said that it was good.

A couple people tried margaritas. They said that the drinks tasted like they were missing something.

Service was below average on the second visit.

Pick pork belly over pastrami here.

And beers over margaritas here.
