Waste away with five simple ingredients: Tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, ice and kosher salt. Don't waste your time with sour mix.

Cinco De Mayo is a day we all love to celebrate… especially when it lands on a Friday! Is there anywhere better to celebrate than in Las Vegas? Whether you’re a Las Vegas visitor or a Las Vegas local, you’ll love the selection of tasty margaritas served in some of Las Vegas’s bars and restaurants.

El Segundo Sol
If you’re looking for traditional margaritas, then El Segundo Sol is a great place to go. El Segundo is known for making some of the best margaritas in Las Vegas using fresh lime juice and high-quality tequila. You can choose from classic, frozen, and fruity margaritas with flavors like strawberry, mango, and peach. And if you don’t want to miss out on the LOCO Hour deals – 3:30 pm – 6:30 pm Monday-Thursday.

Hussong’s Cantina
Another great place to try margaritas is Hussong’s Cantina. If you’re looking for the best margarita experience in Las Vegas, you won’t go wrong with the Original Margarita, actually created at Hussong’s, created by bartender Don Carlos Orozco in 1941. Hussong’s also serves various kinds of margaritas, from classic to modern variations, like the Smokehouse Margarita, which is served smoke-infused and with smoked salt.

Border Grill
With a modern twist on Mexican cuisine, Border Grill is a great place to have some amazing margaritas. The establishment offers classic, fruity, and creative margaritas, with the Prickly Pear Margarita being a favorite. Made with freshly squeezed lime juice, Patron Silver tequila, and prickly pear puree, this margarita is a must-try!

Javier’s
Now listen I know we are talking about the margaritas but I have to tell you one of my favorite things about Javier’s is the ambiance. It’s by far the best on this list. The food they serve there is so elevated at this restaurant. So when you’ve had one too many of their amazing Margaritas – (classic, on the rocks with salt is my favorite) make sure you get some food.

Juan’s Flaming Fajita and Cantina
Make a reservation before you head to Juan’s there is almost always a wait to get a table at Juan’s because it is probably my favorite all-around restaurant on this list from the food and service to the margs and ambiance. On Wednesdays Juan’s has $4 16oz margaritas all day. I promise if you go there once you will go back!

Las Vegas knows how to celebrate Cinco De Mayo, and with so many amazing places to get margaritas, it’s easy to see why. From traditional to modern and everything in between, there’s no shortage of places to get the best margaritas in town. So make sure you try at least one (or all!) of the margaritas we’ve mentioned.

Happy Cinco De Mayo 🙂

8 Best Mexican Restaurants In East Las Vegas

East Las Vegas is a central hub for all things flavor. If you live in the 89101, 89015, 89121 or anywhere around that area you know what we’re talking about.

Summerlin is cool and Henderson is nice but East Las Vegas is really where heart, love and soul come into play. Many outsiders see run down streets and old buildings but behind the cosmetic imperfections lives a part of the city that thrives on culture. A large part of the Latin X community live on the east side which sources family recipes and hidden gems.

The restaurants in the area know how to cook up a mean plate of food. From carnitas tacos, flautas el paso, carne asada and some of the most refreshing aguas frescas. What’s also impressive is the amount of food that these restaurants serve. They don’t skimp on the meats or sides.

Not all but many of the restaurants stay open late catering for those night time hunger cravings. Check local listing times for any updates or changes.

Customers are valued which is why these restaurants stay in business and have continued their success on the east side. We also want to mention that many of the places listed are fair with their prices. It won’t cost a whole pay check to eat at any of these restaurants.

Vegas is one of those cities where you can drive past a business without ever realizing who or what they’re about. Residents of the area understand the struggle of getting their name out there for the masses.

Each of the Mexican restaurants below were rated on Google with a 4.2+ in star ratings. Each of the eateries that were chosen have at least 200 or more reviews.

We wanted to highlight the businesses below that are known for making people smile. We hope you enjoy.
