We love our breakfasts and looking for new little spots to try and take family when they are in town. We yelped for breakfast after my daughter's Saturday morning soccer game and saw that Buena Vista Kitchen was close by and had great reviews so we gave it a shot. BVK is located in Desert Shores in the Lakeside Village Plaza. It's a bit hard to find and does not have much for signs so you really have to look for it. It has a very small patio on the first floor just off the parking lot hidden behind some greenery and decor. The patio area is the only dining area and while decorated nicely it has an awkward feel and is quite cramped. There's also quite a bit of traffic and noise since it is right off the parking lot and in the middle of the plaza walkway, so lots of pedestrian traffic through the dining area as well. We arrived around 10:30 and were seated at a very small table up against the outside wall of the restaurant, it looked like the only one available but was a very tight fit for me, my wife and our daughter. We started with two coffees and an OJ while we looked at the menu over. The menu is not very large or extensive, but does have a few good options, depending on what you are looking for. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros, my wife ordered the Chilaquiles and we got our daughter the French Toast with a scrambled egg, hash browns and side of bacon. Our breakfast came out to about $56 for the three of us, a bit pricey in my opinion. Overall the food was good, nothing great but not bad either. To be fair, my wife's family is from Mexico so our standards are a bit high when it comes to Mexican food. I could have used a little more flavor and spice from our dishes here, they were a little bland. My daughter on the other hand loved her French Toast and pretty much devoured it, so that is a plus! The staff was friendly and the service was good so no complaints there. Once you are done, you will not get a check so just walk inside to the counter and pay there when you are ready. We are always happy to try out small local places and are glad we tried BVK, so go ahead and give it a shot for yourself and see what you think!

Delicious food and cute little patio. We will definitely be back for breakfast. I had the Mexico burrito and my husband had hurvos rancheros.

It's in a nice location and you can dine there as well! I grabbed take out! These chilaquiles are really delicious! I called ahead and they asked if I wanted them spicy which I liked! They also have them in green sauce! I got mine red and medium spicy! When I bit into it I loved that the egg yolk specifically looked nice and orange! I hate egg yolks that look a pale yellow! The sauce was so flavorful and they had black beans mixed in which was new to me but I enjoyed it! Also I think it was cheddar cheese but I also liked that they mixed it in with the tortilla! As for the service, I won't fully know until I dine in, but they seemed nice! I recommend trying them for sure!!

Y’all! The carne asada burrito changed my life. It’s delicious and huge and more bang for your buck than all the other mediocre food out there. Will definitely be going back for more.

This was our spot for years!Things have changed though… the friendly customer service that was offered by the same personal, has dwindled away… The chips decorated with sour cream, chives and pico…have long gone. Now, the waitress says they, “don’t serve them no more…”. I kindly asked, “can we have some chips with the adding, and add it to my bill..?” She smirked and said, “I’ll ask…”.My wife loved their “secret menu” birria bowl… Now, it’s mostly greasy soup with shards of beef meat. It is so hard to find a delicious, consistent restaurant here in town…Well… off to the next one…Cheers!
My husband and I love the breakfast burritos We gobbled them up so fast we didn't have time to get pictures lol

Lovely breakfast/lunch/brunch spot in Desert Shores! Highly recommend. They have the best quesabirria tacos! They come with fresh onions & cilantro. The quesabirria sauce was heavenly! And it's on the side so you can personalize your dipping. I did notice that the price on the board was $1 less than I was charged, and I had asked if they charge for to go orders (they do not). The keto shrimp bowl was amazing! It was so fresh and the shrimp were pretty large. It has guac and salsa, which are such a great match with the shrimp. I love the outside seating area, which has been upgraded recently with a cute "Insta" (is that what the kids call it?) background. They have limited hours, which is a bummer cause I'd love to come here at night! Tell your friends and enemies, this spot is not be missed!

The worst customer service the girl who’s the hostess or waitress don’t even say hi at all , she don’t welcome no body. If feels like she don’t like her job. I asked her any recommendations she said not really. She took forever to bring me straws for my drinks & silverware. She never once came back to the table to check up & to see if we needed anything else worst costumer services. it looks dirty when you walk in to order the cooks drinking a soda while their cooking & eating. Disgusting. The rice was hard. & I thought maybe it just me but no another couple the was next to us got the same treatment even worst she leave the drinks on the table she never once asked them anything else like a regurlar restaurant does. Wonder where they got their health card at ? & their training skills it looks bad for your brand especially because we got os much to choose from Mexican Restaurants thank Go! I tried calling today to speak to the kitchen manager or the general manager the food is good not the rice just trained your employees better. I spend Money there’s 100 Mexican restaurants & I gave this one a shot never gain. There is also so much people wiling to work if your employees don’t like their job or they don’t like to interact with people they should find another job.

A little hard to find but worth the extra look. I am a breakfast person and went out of my way to find a really excellent breakfast in the entirety of the LV metro area. Buena came up in a couple of searches, in the must try category. I was acknowledged immediately and seated on a lovely little patio. It was 80 degrees at arrival and the patio was very comfortable. The menu is informative and easy to navigate. I found exactly what I wanted and it took just a few short minutes to arrive. The food was excellent and I was in and out in 30 minutes but didn't feel rushed. I had enough time to go and try another spot they were so quick. But of course the portion was plenty to fill me. I will be back!!
Highly recommend! Hole in the wall. Love the atmosphere. Friendly, attentive staff. Amazing food! We loved Chef Manny’s Chilaquiles. Food is made fresh when ordered and authentic roasted salsa. Bought 2 salsas to go. Wendy was so sweet and all the staff had Great Hospitality.
One of my fav brunch spots in Summerlin. Service time is normal, environment is friendly, and the food is at a great price/served in solid portions. Will def be back again!

By far this is one of my favorite places, this jewel, Mexican restaurant is by far one of the best here at Desert Shores. It's almost like a little hole in the wall getaway. The food here is amazing. Must try the Chilaquiles platter with Carne asada they make their own homemade salsa I like them both they have a red one and a green one conflicted on which one I like the most. They also sell it here. Highly recommended!Este restaurante está perfecto la comida está bien buena los chilaquiles están sabrosos la salsa la hacen fresca aquí verde y roja me gustan las dos vienes escondido pero bien perfecto para venir con tu pareja o solo también el café está sabroso y todo lo recomiendo mucho y la mesera y el cocinero son muy buena gente .
