Brand-new Mercadito’s taco selection is so stupendous, it’s hard to choose an all-out favorite, but the seemingly simple shrimp tacos offer a dazzling, meteoric mouthful the likes of which we’ve never tasted. Juicy shrimp chunks are slathered in a spectacularly spicy and creamy garlic chipotle mojo sauce and topped with avocado, all packaged within a fresh, house-made corn tortilla. Trust us: An order of four will not be enough. Red Rock, 702-979-3609. Sun-Thu, 11:30 a.m.-midnight; Fri & Sat, 11:30 a.m.-1 a.m.
