El Segundo Sol

Flavorful Tacos & Margaritas Just Steps from the Strip

El Segundo Sol brings a fun, casual Mexican dining experience to the heart of Las Vegas. Located right on the Strip at the Fashion Show Mall, this vibrant cantina-style restaurant is just minutes from several major concert venues. With its relaxed vibe, colorful decor, and a spacious patio for people-watching, it’s an easy choice for anyone looking to kick off a night out with bold flavors and a margarita in hand.

The menu is loaded with freshly made guacamole, sizzling fajitas, and over 100 types of tequila. Whether you're dining inside the lively main room or soaking in the Vegas energy from the outdoor seating, El Segundo Sol captures the spirit of a pre-show celebration.

Why Concert-goers love it

Quick service and a laid-back atmosphere make this spot a go-to for concert-goers. It's a short ride (or even walk) from many of the Strip’s live music venues, so you won’t feel rushed. The spacious patio is perfect for groups, and the kitchen keeps things moving—ideal if you’re on a tight schedule before showtime. If you’re looking for something light before the music starts, tacos and chips with fresh guac hit the spot without weighing you down.

Who this Restaurant is great for

• Groups of friends sharing pitchers of margaritas and tacos
• Solo travelers grabbing a quick bite at the bar before the show
• Couples enjoying a casual dinner with a view of the Strip
• Fans who want a fun, social vibe before heading to a concert
• Budget-conscious music lovers who want bold flavor without breaking the bank

What People Say

Reviews frequently mention the “fun energy,” “great margaritas,” and “surprisingly good food” for a tourist-heavy area. Guests love the option to sit outside and watch the crowds go by, and many highlight the attentive, upbeat staff. The tacos and house-made salsas get consistent praise, and the tequila selection is a crowd favorite, especially for those starting their night early.

Areas for Improvement

As with many spots on the Strip, it can get busy during peak hours, so there might be a short wait for a table if you don’t have a reservation. A few reviewers felt the prices leaned touristy—but most agreed the flavors and fun atmosphere made it worth it.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for fast, flavorful Mexican food in a fun setting just steps from the Strip's concert venues, El Segundo Sol delivers every time.
