The best seat in the house at José Andrés' excellent Cosmopolitan Hotel Mexican-Chinese mashup spot is at the counter, where you can watch chefs assemble dim sum like pork sui mai and har gau. Read more

This place rules. Chinese/Mexican fusion sounds odd, but it really works here. Chips and salsa are $$$$. Small but inspired tacos. Really nice noodles dishes, especially the Ants Climbing a Tree.

Jose Andres at bargain prices for Vegas. Ideal meal: guac, habanero sauce, carnitas (with pork rinds) and viva china (oyster) tacos, shrimp mojo, chicken ji song, and a bunch of Micheladas.

Try the Lucky 6 Siu Mai - Love this. From bottom, beef, seafood, traditional. Traditional is my favorite, but I don't usually have it garnished with gold leaf! (via @Foodspotting)

We did the tasting menu. Phenomenal - absolutely the right decision if you want to fully experience the fusion style here. I’ll always dream of the mango sticky rice dessert - stellar finish.

Create your own dishes from a selection of regional flavors, from tacos and guac, to Chinese soups, noodles and dim sum. Chef José Andrés brings you street inspired fusion fare at its finest.

A must visit in Cosmopolitan. The setas tacos are excellent. I also recommend the Avacado Smash. The tequilla and avacado is tasty & is refreshing. They sometimes have a Pork Belly Taco that's great!

The tasting menu was a lot of food, but a completely unique and delicious experience. Definitely worth trying once. The tacos, fried pork buns, and fried rice were just a few of many hits.

When Pigs Fly steamed dumplings are made fresh all day long. You can watch them being made if you sit at the bar. Very good fusion food! Terry is an amazing bartender/mixologist! Ask him for tips!

Fuses two tried and true traditional cuisines together for something totally new and creative. It's mandatory I come here on each trip. Worth a visit for the margarita clouds alone.

A great spot for a light vegetarian lunch. Go for the Beijing Noodle Bowl: it's fresh, light and oh-so-delicious. The guacamole is the freshest you'll find; just leave off the cheese for vegan.

Love the concept! The fried rice was delicious and the calabaza sopes (pumpkin). The Palmito Salad could’ve been more special.

Holy tastebuds Batman! Very interesting infusion of Mexican & Chinese cuisine. You MUST try the Golden Pigs!! No seriously! Guacamole was good just not worth $15. Try Don't be jealous or 20 vegetable.

Mexican and Chinese cuisines live side by side as an amusing mix of elements from both traditions. Enjoy a signature dessert, the Terra Cotta Warriors, which resemble the famed Chinese statues.

Try the Rou Jia Mo Street Sandwich - Red cooked pork in a naan like bun. Prefer it in a traditional steamed bun, but still good. (via @Foodspotting)

Salt "air" is the perfect topping for a margarita, just the right balance to the fresh squeezed citrus. And don't even get us started on the homemade churros with Mexican hot chocolate...

Check out China Poblano's extensive brunch menu and indulge in innovative fare with offerings like fried plantains with sweet cream, and Chinese sausage with snow peas and carrots.

Don't choose between Mexican or Chinese tonight. Order the hyper-creative taco "Tierno": soft beef tendon, Kumamoto oyster scallions, Sichuan peppercorn sauce. It's the perfect fusion. Read more

Tasty tuna ceviche and pork tacos. Okay pot stickers. Be warned: you are paying Strip prices for tapas and communal seating. Too expensive for portion size.
