Lindo Michoacan Opens Its Newest Restaurant Inside a Casino

Lindo Michoacan. | Stations Casinos The family-owned Las Vegas restaurant takes its sizzling fajitas to Palace Station The Original Lindo Michoacan first opened in 1990. At that time, the family-owned Mexican restaurant only had 12 tables. Now, the Las Vegas restaurant is opening its fourth restaurant, this time inside the Palace Station casino. Timed to open just days before Cinco de Mayo, the newest Lindo Michoacan borrows quite a bit from its predecessor. The walls, which used to belong to Tacos & Tequila, have been painted yellow and pottery and colorful ceramic line the shelves that border each room. But its new digs are a little gussied up — with sparkling pendant lights, touches of brick and hammered copper, and pretty tiles that run along a tequila-stocked bar. In total, the restaurant can seat 106 people in its booth and table seating. Expect the same enchiladas, tacos, fajitas, and tableside guacamole found at Lindo Michoacan’s three other locations. The restaurant offers lobster tails in a Spanish-style garlic sauce, green chilaquiles with steak, and carnitas braised in Coca-Cola — a recipe that owner Javier Barajas’s mom used to make for him. And for Cinco de Mayo weekend, the restaurant is, of course, offering drink specials — like $12 Patrón margaritas. Station Casinos Lindo Michoacan.
