  Inside the Cosmopolitan. Wait was about 30 minutes. God was good for price. We especially liked their homemade tortilla chips. They had a mix of spices and could be eaten without any salsa. The salsa was excellent too!

  Wow wow wow. Absolutely amazing. Staff was so nice and had great recommendations. Did the chefs experience off the menu and everything was so delicious. It's a lot more than you think, so be prepared.

  China Poblano brings together two bold cuisines—Chinese and Mexican—in a surprisingly seamless way at this José Andrés concept. The space itself matches the idea: colorful, lively, and full of energy. The menu is packed with tempting options from both sides, which made choosing difficult. Thankfully, the tasting menu solved that problem perfectly. I started with a salt foam margarita that was bright and refreshing, a great way to kick things off. The tasting menu included nine dishes, each thoughtfully selected, flavorful, and portioned just right so you leave satisfied but not overwhelmed. The mango sticky rice at the end was the perfect sweet finish and easily one of the highlights. If you’re looking for a fun, casual, and slightly festive dining spot in Vegas, China Poblano is a solid choice.

  The concept sounds weird — Chinese-Mexican fusion — but José Andrés makes it work brilliantly. The dan dan noodles and the tacos al pastor are equally excellent. The space is vibrant and fun with an open kitchen. Great for a casual but elevated meal. The cocktails tie the two cuisines together cleverly. One of those places that could only exist in Vegas and somehow it just makes sense. Don't overthink it, just order one of everything.

  Located in the Cosmopolitan Hotel and Casino on the second floor in the food court area. They also do takeout. We made reservations through OpenTable so there was no weight. Liz seated us and warmly congratulated Dad on his 94th birthday. She set a wonderful tone for our whole dinner experience. Dad's favorite dishes here are the Mongolian Beef and Dan Dan Noodles ($17) -- the latter being their version is like the Korean comfort food Jja Jiang Myun -- which involves black bean sauce and noodles. Deliciousness. Parents preferred hot water over cold per Asian health protocols and a kettle for two was brought out to accommodate. We also ordered the quail eggs over shumai as well as the oxtail soup (6 for $19) The oxtail soup came in a dark soy sauce soup base ($24) The flavors were all very complementary. The only slight disappointment was there were very few pieces of meat in the Mongolian Beef this time. It's presented as a dish for sharing and in past years has sufficed as such, but this time it really came across as a one person serving. We ordered extra rice and a mango pudding came out with a candle so we could sing happy birthday to dad and let him make a wish. Truly excellent service by Liz, who is attentive to the fact that we had two very elderly seniors at the table, and thanks to Alan and Oscar and (we think her name was) Jocelyn. Dinner for three of us was $90 before tip.
