Las Vegas Weekly

This Mexican restaurant is very upscale though I think the interior decorator may have pulled a fast one on the owners. Our server, Jose Luis, was exceptionally informative and assisted us as we worked through the menu. We started off with complimentary tortilla chips and 3 excellent dips. My wife settled on the avocado leaf crusted sea scallops with poblano and corn rice, mango relish and salsa verde. I selected the tamarind ancho chile glazed pork tenderloin served with a mango relish and Mexican risotto (double cream, poblano and corn). The tenderloin took 20 minutes to prepare so be forewarned. We both agreed that this was our best dining experience in a very long time.

After visiting the Las Vegas Premium Outlets we decided to have lunch at Mundo. The restaurant was very busy on this Friday afternoon so it was fortunate that we held reservations. We received a bowl of taco chips plus 3 housemade salsas. We both ordered the jalapeno chile spiced chicken enchiladas with roasted tomatillo sauce, salsa asada, melted chihuahua cheese and crema fresca. Everything was very good including the service until our waiter was reassigned to duties at the bar. 3.5 Forks out of a possible 5.

This highly acclaimed Mexican restaurant is located in the World Market Center, within walking distance of both the Las Vegas Premium outlets and the recently opened Smith Center. We had OpenTable reservations for noon on a Friday and were soon munching on the complimentary housemade chips and salsa. We both ordered enchiladas with my wife choosing the chicken with roasted tomatillo sauce, Chihuahua cheese and crema fresca. I ordered the garden enchiladas with roasted tomato garlic sauce, Chihuahua cheese and crema fresca. Both dishes were very good though Ann thought hers lacked balance because there was too much chicken.
