Sea bass taqueria and short rib tostaditas at a Wine Spectator Award-winning Mexican steakhouse — with a happy hour menu that makes the Strip’s most dramatic room accessible. The Toca Madera happy hour at The Shops at Crystals runs Mon-Fri–4-6pm- the bar only, with discounted cocktails, beer, and a focused food menu built from the same organic and sustainable ingredients as the full dinner service.
Order This:
- Short Rib Tostaditas ($12) — three per order; rich, generous, and the item Las Vegas Advisor described as “so plentiful we couldn’t finish them”; order these first
- Sea Bass Taqueria ($5) — Beer-battered, cucumber radish slaw, habanero crema. Reviewers call them some of the best bites in the room at any price
- Toca Margarita ($8) — blanco tequila or mezcal, lava salt; the signature cocktail that earns its name; the watermelon-Thai basil version is the interesting call
- Guacamole with pomegranate and plantain chips ($9) — the happy hour table starter; order it when you sit down
- House wine ($9) or Corona/Pacifico/Modelo ($5) — the beer pricing is the most accessible entry point in the room
Toca Madera is the Noble 33 group’s Las Vegas flagship, tucked into the courtyard between Aria and The Shops at Crystals — a location that’s easy to miss if you don’t know to look for the unmarked door. The happy hour is how you sit in that room for $30–$40 instead of $100+. Dress accordingly.
Mon–Fri 4–6pm. Bar only. Located at The Shops at Crystals, 3720 S Las Vegas Blvd, Suite 233 (enter through courtyard between Aria and Crystals). Valet at Crystals.
