About Mandalay Bay
BBQ Mexicana, a fast-casual takeaway counter from award-winning Chefs Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger, is conveniently located between the Shark Reef and Michelob ULTRA Arena. With limited seating, BBQ Mexicana is ideal for convention attendees and those seeking a delicious meal on the go before continuing on to the casino floor, pool, Shark Reef, game or a show.
Making for an ideal lunch or snack, and catering to meat eaters and vegetarians alike, the fast-casual eatery smokes everything in-house, utilizing only meats raised without hormones or antibiotics and offering mesquite smoked tofu. Guests can wash down their meals with a variety of non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages to-go such as housemade daily aguas frescas, freshly made traditional lime or fresh fruit margaritas, Mexican beer plus more.
On select days, BBQ Mexicana will open for breakfast at 8 a.m., offering morning specials, such as the Breakfast Burrito with housemade chorizo, eggs, crispy potatoes, black beans, guacamole, Mexican cheeses, and salsa fresca on a flour tortilla.
Keeping it in the family, Milliken’s son Kieran Schweitzer’s colorful artwork is featured in the vibrant and modern exterior. Incorporating bright pops of red, blue, yellow, green, purple, and orange with metal detailing, the art reflects Mexico's street food culture to further ignite a sense of warmth and energy.
Praise for Mandalay Bay
“First rate slow-smoked barbecue is turned into first rate Mexican comfort food, and everything from the imaginative entrée salads to sides was rock solid - this place is an innocuous gem and great addition to the Vegas food scene. It’s called BBQ Mexicana, it is in the back of Mandalay Bay, and the burnt end burrito isn’t just good, it is stunning, the best burrito of any kind I have ever tasted, worth the trip and really budget friendly." - Forbes
“Prepare for a possible epiphany at BBQ Mexicana, a quick-stop lunch spot for barbecue stuffed burritos and on-the-go margaritas, now open at Mandalay Bay right across from its mother restaurant, Border Grill." - Urban Daddy
