My favorite taco shop in town everything is flame grilled. The chicken is good, the Asada is, quesadilla is packed with meat and cheese. I mostly stop in to order a burrito on the go. Some times, I do the carne asada plate, hurrache, or quesadilla. Don’t get me wrong tho a lot of people order the tacos.

Not the cleanest place but the food is legit. Carne asada is really good, super thin and has a great smokey flavor. Try the Aguas frescas make sure they’re not the ones from the machines! Refried beans are good and the salsa are good too. Feels like a home cooked meal.

Tacos al pastor are excellent, the flavor of the meat with pineapple made me remember my home country Mexico. The carne asada is cooked when you order it, the asada tacos are good too.
I ordered «agua fresca de piña» and is real pineapple drink. Taste good.

Great place! Tacos de carne asada are always delicious and reasonably priced, can never go wrong! Coming from California I was searching for a Good taco spot and this place takes the gold medal!

Yum, best tacos I’ve tried in Vegas. Way better than tizon #1. Great salsa bar with grilled onions and a very good guacamole salse. Yummy tortas and even better tacos. Overall, very nice.

Somehow it doesn’t quite live up to El Tizon #1.
The portions are big and the tacos are decent, but the food is nothing to write home about.
Checking out El Fish Taco right next door next time I want some takeout.

I have aye here twice and boy its delicious! Definitely my new favorite place in Las Vegas!

This is my favorite place to get Mexican food! I recommend the cheese quesadillas with guacamole (only $ 4.25) and the carne asada (which is a little expensive at $ 9.99). They also have a nicely sized condiment and salsa bar which is free. The location is a little ghetto but my only negative comment is that the woman who takes my order is rude every time I come in (no smile, mumbles, rushes me). I’m giving it four stars based on the absolutely delicious food!

Tacos here are good, better than king tacos back at home in LA. I always come here when I’m in Vegas. The tacos comes with beans and everything. It’s really good. My 5^th time here. My favs are the Asada and lengua (tongue) and cabeza (head)… Tasty tasty and spicy spicy… just how I like it… hahaha

The carne asada had good flavor, the salsa was fresh. We didn’t stay to eat, it was super dirty inside. Food was good, though I was worried I’d get food poisoning from the dirty restaurant– I didn’t… So yeah, if they cleaned it up they’d get more stars.

My burrito was exceptionally huge, and not half bad. My friend got two quesadilla’s and probably ate more than she should have, but she loved it. We both spent under $ 8 for a very complete meal, and it filled us for the whole day. You should check this place out.

Awesome place to go if you are hungover and in need of some food to pick you back up. Great al pastor tacos. The menudo is also very good. Make sure to call ahead to see if they still have menudo. This is definitely a spot to go when you are in Vegas.

I eat tacos all over the town and these tacos lacked a lot of taste. They were very bland. I did enjoy the salsa, but the chips I got I felt were a little stale. I think maybe the menu items are way better but basing my review in the tacos.

I only buy the Carne asada tacos, because they are good and cheap. I can’t vouch for anything else here. The tacos come with onions and cilantro and pinto beans. Although, I wasn’t sure about the pinto beans they are actually pretty good on the tacos.

Me and my girl went she got tacos I got a burrito both had no flavor was plan first time going and last time waste of money

Mexican food usually tastes pretty similar from one restaurant to another to me unless it’s really good or bad. Everyone seems to have one thing that sets them apart. Since this was my first time here, I don’t know what that is yet here, but what I can say is their sauces are amazing. Good hot sauce gets 5 start f from me.

White boy friendly!
Walked in to this friendly environment with my wife and not only were we treated great, but the food was awesome! Totally a cost effective hole in the wal lil mex restaraunt… Mmm delicioso! Would highly reccomend, and we will def be returning i only wish i would have ordered more of the tacos el pastor :)

Oook… my husband and I have been here a few times and I would call it my new spot but last night I came across a baby roach crawling it’s way around the salsa bar. Now, I understand and know that restaurants attract rodents bug isn’t it the responsibility if the people who run these places make sure shit like that is taken care of?! I mean come on bro…“yea can I get a burrito with sour cream, hold the roaches” hell to the no. My husband will eat anything so I think he didn’t mind rodent in his food and he said he thinks the roaches came from the kabob place next door lol! Either way, super gross. I don’t know about anyone else but I will never return to eat here nor will I recommend it.

Dependable, tasty tacos.
I’ve only eaten the carne asada and el pastor tacos. But I’ve had them both a number of times.
The carne asada is served with cilantro, onions, and refried beans. The addition of beans is different for me, but I enjoy them. Those tacos are solid. They are consistently enjoyable. Not earth shattering, but good.
The al pastor, on the other hand, is a different story. Sometimes it is «good». Tasty and pleasant. But there are times that their al pastor is AMAZING. I don’t know what they are doing different on those days, but I plan to find out. I am not a fan of pork, but the taco filled with semi-​sweet, perfectly charred tender meat served with pineapple is the best I’ve had in town. Again, they are not consistently outstanding, but they are always tasty. I would add an extra star if their pastor tacos were more consistent.
I am a fan of this local joint. Did I mention they have a self-​serve bar with grilled onions and jalepenos? Delish.
EDITED TO ADD
IMPORTANT DISCOVERY: After eating here more than 20 times, I stumbled in a few times before the lunch rush. And guess what? The carne asada was amazing. Like award winning. Come in later (as I often have) and who knows what you’ll get (Ok to delicious fare). But come in around 11:00 AM, and get ready to be moved. Possibly to tears. If they keep this up i may have to add a star…

Soooo the best part about this place is the 98 cent tacos! I got some carne asada tacos, some al pastor, and tacos de papa. I was SOOOO excited to try the tacos de papa, I love them! Well here theyre not like traditional ones, they deep fry them which I didnt like.
The carne asada tacos are ace! I love them! You can get them plain or with beans, oinions and cilantro atop… or any combo. Plus I always put hella lime on it! YUM!
The tacos al pastor were not my cup of tea, I wasnt digging them. They were WAYYYY too sweet!
All in all I’d go back!
