Letty's de Leticia's Cocina offers an intimate dining experience nestled in the bustling Arts District of Las Vegas. Despite its small size, the restaurant exudes authenticity, serving up genuine Mexican cuisine that's been sorely missed in the city. Our waitress, Michelle, added to the enjoyment with her infectious energy and attentive service, despite the busy atmosphere. The flavors of the dishes were undeniably authentic, hitting all the right notes and leaving us craving more. While the venue was bustling, it only added to the charm of the place. Letty's de Leticia's Cocina truly is a hidden gem in the heart of Vegas. Although we left satisfied, the only reason it falls short of a perfect score is that we found ourselves still craving more of their delicious food. Nevertheless, we'll definitely be returning soon to indulge in another round of culinary delights. If you're in the area, don't miss the chance to discover this Mexican culinary treasure near the Arts District.

We came to Letty's because it was recommended by Atomic Scooter Rental Shop (we had stopped by while on our scooters). Be prepared for your food to take forever to come to your table (The restaurant wasn't busy) It was a Monday, yet we still waited what felt like an hour for our food. The complementary water tasted like metal pipes. I was offered more salsas by the male waiter. The salsa never showed up and I had finished eating my tacos with no salsa. The bean and rice burrito came out so hot that I burn the roof of my mouth when I took my first bite. The outdoor seating ambience was lacking. No background music or anything interesting to look at... except having to hear the other couples phone notifications of the Kim Possibles theme song go off repeatedly, and then the waitress noticed, and started dancing to it, while we were just sitting there waiting for our salsas and food.... A new couple showed up and sat behind us. I think they noticed how long it took for our food to come out as they questioned the waitress on how long the food would take. The waitress basically told them it's a standard time just as long as any plate would take to be cooked (LIES)... would not return to Lettys, I don't get what the hype is all about.

Terrible service! Don't come here unless you want to be ignored! I was one of 3 tables that walked out after waiting 25 minutes (without water). Didn't ever get to order. Restaurant only had 2 other tables seated when i arrived, so really weren't busy at all!!! Called Mgmnt to advise they just lost 3 tables worth of customers. They were oblivious! Spare yourself the aggravation- don't come here!

What is going on in this place???? Delicious authentic Mexican food! Menudo, Pozole and the Empanadas are Delicious! And don't get me started on the service 10 out of 10 . I recommend this place if you are in Vegas and looking for some delicious authentic Mexican food.

Terrible service, we waited 15 minutes and didn’t even get talked to. Meanwhile the server was getting others refills on beers. People ordered and got their food before we walked out because nobody helped us. Very poor service. Place sucks.

We started our food adventure here. Breakfast was delicious and so filling. I was stuffed for hours and mine was a whole $10! The Mexican coffee to help it down was also delicious!
One star for sadness! Went in at lunch time and was seated rather quickly with two other parties. We were second out of the 3 to be seated. After what felt like 15-20 minutes without drinks or anything, the 3rd party sat was ordering with the server. So we left. I really wanted to try this spot but they clearly can't handle a lunch rush. At least keep track of who you're seating and when.

This mom & pop Mexican restaurant hold serves tasty dishes but needs more help when they're busy... Located in the arts district, this tiny mom and pop restaurant is housed in an old house...literally. The seating is extremely limited because of this. There is seating outside but it was too windy during our visit. The parking is also limited which overall makes this a challenging visit. They were understaffed on a busy Saturday for lunch. The servers were pleasant and were trying their best but were put in an impossible situation. We added the avocado dip with our chips and dips and everything was fresh.I had their signature plate, the Chilangos: 2 beef QuesaBirra tacos and it was fantastic. I totally get why it was featured on Diner, Drive Ins and Dives. Highly recommended. The guava flavored margarita was very tasty and put together well. The logistics can make this a difficult visit depending on your timing. I think if I swing by again, I'll try and schedule it during a time where they'll least likely be busy. It's definitely worth a visit for the chilangos alone. Enjoy!

The food was mid at best. Been there before and I had a reason to go back. They brought the tortillas as we almost finished our food with us reminding the staff about them.

These quesa birria tacos are thicc in the best way. What tasted like fresh made tortillas with tender, juicy birria. They call them "Chilangos" on the menu, and they don't disappoint. The restaurant is a cute space with a small dining room and some outdoor tables, and the service was very friendly.

This is a great find in Las Vegas art district. We think this might be the best Mexican food we have ever had! The Taquitos Enchilados are wonderful, the fanciest presentation in tomatillo sauce. We also had huevos rancheros, chips, salsa, guacamole, rice, beans, and Mexican corn. All delicious! We recommend and will be back!
