  • Actual rating 4.5. Since my last review Jaleo has become one of my family's go-to restaurants, especially if we have to think of a restaurant on-the-fly. It is a reasonably priced restaurant for Vegas standards (read: still expensive for tapas elsewhere) as my siblings and I were able to try a wide variety of tapas and still pay $52.95, including tax and tip. We ended up getting at least 2 plates per person. The key is to get an even balance of tapas. This should include some carb and a bit more non-carb items. Ideally it should also be part vegetarian, part seafood and part red/non-red meat but this can vary depending on the party. Our party felt happy with our selection. With our parents dining elsewhere we were able to be a little more experimental with our selection. There were some staples along with some new items. - Pan de cristal con tomate ($12.50). The Catalonian version of bruschetta using a bread with lots of holes due to carbonation. The result is an excellent starter as the bread doesn't fill you up as fast. The tomato paste is light as well. - Salmon tartar with salmon roe cones ($5/cone). Pricey for such a simple cone but it is so well executed it's one of my favorite appetizers at any restaurant. More appropriately an ideal amuse-bouche but not complementary. - Squid with aioli and piparra peppers ($22). The squid doesn't have much breadcrumb topping. It's also quite light. The piparra peppers are similar to pepperoncinis except thinner. It's less spicier than jalapeno. - Shrimp and lobster fritters ($14). Considering it's a fritter it's not anything too fancy. Though small, it provides a burst of taste in that one fritter. - Grilled Merino lamb with rosemary sauce and honey aioli ($25.50). The weakest selection of the bunch not necessarily due to taste but merely because rack of lamb is not necessarily limited to Spanish cuisine. A good rack of lamb tastes the same no matter what restaurant you go to. - Patatas bravas ($11.50). They serve the carb-heavy tapas last. This would be the weakest tapa for taste simply because the potatoes aren't crispy, which is essential to a patatas bravas preparation. The brava sauce makes the potato soft so it has to be crunchy to be able to hold the sauce. Will skip this in the future, but I'm disappointed because patatas bravas is one of my favorite Spanish tapas. - Chicken and wild mushroom paella ($25). The best paellas are simple. I was happy about this presentation because the dish was still hot when served and the chicken portions were generous. Rice was served al dente. Normally a dessert would be ordered here but ever since Milk Bar opened one floor down we just opted for dessert there because it's so renowned. Jaleo is best suited for small group dining due to tapas best for social dining. Might be too pricey for party of 2 unless you really splurge for their "é" dinner-in-a-show experience, a unique experience even for Vegas standards. Either way you can't go wrong.
