    “I love the shrimp tacos and jalapeño cheese tamales at Casa Don Juan. It’s my go-to meal,” says Chris Decker, Managing partner of Metro Pizza and Lulu’s Bread & Breakfast.

    They also serve a classic plate of nachos in a classic Mexican restaurant, right down to the Frida Kahlo mural and weekend mariachis. A heap of tortilla chips is topped with a pile of beef, chicken or pork with cheese and sour cream (customize with more of the chips or either of the salsas that automatically come to your table). Popular choices also include enchiladas, chicken mole and margaritas.

    Chef's choice

    Dec 01, 2014

    Why let the food critics have all the fun? This year, we quizzed six local culinary luminaries — from high-profile restaurateurs to the city’s most innovative chefs — about the year in dining. Voila: A little praise, a little panning, a dash of OMG-I-can’t-believe-he-went-there — served piping hot.

    In the Main stream

    Mar 26, 2015

    Luxury intersects hard-nosed necessity on Main Street, where unsentimental auto lots and bail bondsmen mingle with vintage shops and high-end home decor. The unlikely mix tells a story of transformation on one of Las Vegas’ oldest streets.
