Delicious food! The sopecitos and barbacoa tacos tasted like authentic Mexican food and the calm atmosphere made the experience even better.

We were there yesterday for dinner. The margaritas were phenomenal. The Margarita Claus was a work of art with all of the little festive adornments. 🎄😊

Food and margaritas were excellent as always. Very short staffed with only 2 servers for the entire place, but the server was still wonderful. Great view of Chipotle and Moe's.

Ate there after seeing their drink specials sign outside (half off certain drinks on certain days). We had some large half off Mayan sunsets and split a dip trip w/ queso, guac, and salsa—all delicious! We all had a pretty cheap bill and leftovers from our large entrees Definitely will be back!

I like the Asada and Mahi tacos. Meat was tender and moist and delicious. I had Cancun soup was very light, refreshing, and tasty. My boyfriend got Large margaritas and he loved it while watching the birds outside. I had mango margarita and was very good. Love the Fajitas and tacos 🌮

Absolutely loved this place! The food was bursting with authentic Mexican flavor, you can really tell everything is made with care. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere was warm and colorful, and the whole experience just felt special. If you’re craving real Mexican food, this spot is a must!

Located on the upper floor of a building in Market Square, Las Velas can be a little tricky to find at first, but it’s absolutely worth it once you get there. The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, and despite being a random weekday, the place was bustling—always a good sign! I visited solo and chose to sit at the bar, which turned out to be a great spot to enjoy the quick service and friendly staff. I ordered the Al Pastor tacos, and they did not disappoint—flavorful, well-prepared, and satisfying. As someone visiting Pittsburgh, I had heard great things about Las Velas, and I’m happy to say it lived up to the hype. I’d definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for delicious Mexican food in the heart of the city.

Las Velas has always consistently deliver exceptional food over the years! Very happy that the full menu is back and get the sopecitos off the appetizer menu, a meal in itself! Also, do not miss the enchiladas with molé sauce, I can't get enough! And the chips are unsalted, the best!!!

Awesome place, Great Food, Service and Atmosphere. I ordered Chicken Enchiladas Mole... The Enchiladas need to be a little warmer and a touch more salt, the refried beans were Great... I believe they are made in house as well as the great Spanish rice. The Margarita was good too. But most of all my waitress Ash or Ashton was Fast, Nice and friendly and was Amazing to watch her work She had such a Rhythm about her when she was working and never missed a beat, I asked for the manager so I could compliment her to the manager and she said that's me... Amazing experience at this place and I highly recommend this place !!! From me a Top 10 USA Google food blogger Ask for Ash and you won't be disappointed. Way to go Ash !!!

I got a pork plate, taco,burrito enchilada with rice and beans. The food had good flavor. Everything was lukewarm. My taco had hard reheated pork in it, I thought they were bones. Good atmosphere, clean, good service. I think all the businesses in that area are suffering from construction right outside their door. First Mexican restaurant were you didn't get chips and salsa. They were extra.

I ate dinner here based on reviews. Did not disappoint. Service was extremely fast, but almost to a point where it felt like we were rushed to order. The food was great, however the stuffed jalapenos felt like they were missing something. Couldn't put my finger on it though.

Great views of Market Square from their 2nd story location. The queso that came with the chips and the watermelon Cucumber margarita were 🔥. My husband and I both ordered a combination platter that came with a taco, burrito, and enchilada. He ordered pork and steak (steak was good, just a little well done).

Service was a bit slow, seems understaffed. Our server was running around a lot of tables. I waited 15 minutes for a soda refill. Not impressed with the queso, it was very watery and dripping all over us and the table. I wasn't expecting all of the pork/carnitas tacos to be al pastor style; I'm personally not a fan of the pineapple taste in my carnitas but it wasn't bad per se. This is one of the most sparsely decorated Mexican restaurants I've ever seen, kind of disappointing. And if it matters to you, there is a discount if you pay with cash.

Date night with the wife. Not a spot to take your wife, maybe a friend or co worker. They were under staffed and that took a star away, the food was averaged at best for being so pricey. The photos I uploaded is all we got as it ran us $88 bucks. The only plus was the waitress was very centered and focused as she served half the establishment. That's why you got a 3 star without her it would been a 2 at best.

I have gone to Las Velas for years with groups from work. In the past, I have always had a good experience with quick service and hot, flavorful food. Yesterday, however, was terrible. I was part of a group of eight. We were seated in the main dining area, which had not a single other customer in it--the place was obviously not in the least bit busy on a Tuesday afternoon. The waiter was speedy and attentive in seating us and taking drink orders, but he did not come back to take the food order for nearly a half hour. Once we had ordered, the food took 45 minutes to arrive--we were now running so late that a few of us worried about returning to work in time for critical appointments. Although some of my colleagues were satisfied with their food, mine was terrible. I ordered a steak fajita, and it came with only filling, no shell (that was promised but never delivered), and everything on the plate was room temperature as if it had been sitting out for a long time. Only the refried beans had a hint of warmth and were halfway appealing to me, but I ended up eating everything because I was starving and desperate. I notice that suddenly the chips and salsa are an extra-cost item, not a great way to keep customers happy for an hour while they wait on their food. I cannot envision taking another chance on this place. If they cannot handle eight customers total on a weekday afternoon, I can only image what a mess they would make of the situation when they are busy. I will take my business elsewhere.

The restaurant is located in a super dope spot overlooking market square, but it almost feels like a waste of a great space. The service was slow and the waiter was unknowledgeable about the menu. The Margaritas were terrible, which is crazy at Mexican restaurant. The food was pretty good, but not worth making me want to ever return. I do not recommend going here.

Poor management. Bad service and miscommunications between managers on different shifts. The kitchen doesn’t know what’s going on and the managers are incompetent. Plus, lackluster and mid food. If you come here make sure you’re prepared to not eat good food

First, they charge for chips and salsa. Then the soft drinks had no carbonation. Next, asked for tacos with no pico de gallo and they came with it. Took plate and just scraped it off. Fish tacos were VERY fishy. That means the fish is almost bad. The manager would not come out to discuss our experience and left it on the poor waiter. Worse ”Mexican” food ever. I would stay away. May be hard to believe but this is a completely honest review.

Service here was not good , server took a long time to get our appetizers and food. And when the food did come , most of it was wrong or missing, when we told the server it was wrong she said she would check the receipt which is weird because we know what we ordered . We didn’t get any refund on the 3 orders that were messed up. I’m ok with paying my food but at this point there was 3 orders messed up and we only changed one of them because we didn’t wanna take up even more time waiting .i don’t remember the servers name but she was tall Hispanic with glasses and brown/blonde highlights .Here are the pics
