Las Vegas locals love to do brunch. Probably more than we love to do breakfast. And maybe that's because the Vegas lifestyle for many of us isn't very conducive to mornings. Either our out-of-town friends and family stayed up too late partying. Or we're in the hospitality industry and working the swing shift is all too common. Whatever the reason, we're brunchers. So we get pretty darn excited when a new brunch place opens up.

Mijo Modern Mexican Restaurant in Durango Casino Resort just announced a new brunch menu for the weekends.
