Las Vegas continues to be a hot spot for food lovers, with a wave of new restaurant openings and exciting promotions hitting the scene.
Weera Thai Street Food, the latest venture from the family owners of the four Weera Thai restaurants in the city, is expected to open this spring. The new location will be situated at 328 W. Sahara Ave., in the same center as the Golden Steer Steakhouse and The Mint bar, taking over the space previously occupied by En Fuegos Cigars & Lounge.
Known for its authentic cooking from the Isan region of northeastern Thailand, Weera Thai Street Food promises a more casual dining experience, with a menu inspired by the street stalls of Thailand. The restaurant has teased, “Get ready for bold flavors, sizzling woks, and a true taste of Thailand,” on its Facebook page.

Alebrijes by Chef Paco, a rustic Mexican eatery, has opened its doors at 450 E. Fremont St., Suite 310, in the former Crash N Burn location. Chef Paco Cortes, a veteran of the Las Vegas culinary scene, brings a vibrant new dining experience with a menu that includes traditional dishes such as chapulines (toasted grasshoppers), panuchos (corn tortilla pockets filled with black beans and Yucatán barbecued pork), and various tacos and burritos.
The restaurant’s unique name derives from alebrijes — vividly colored sculptures of mythical creatures from Mexican folklore, which reflect the lively essence of the cuisine.
