| - OH MY TACOS EL GORDO! When you thought you lived in a city with authentic mexican food, Tacos El Gordo... hands down beats it all! THE BEST TACOS. Whether you are drunk or sober, it doesn't matter. I love how this is jam packed & open during early & late hours throughout the day.
* Ordered:
- Small Carne Asada Fries (3/4 stars): Sorry, I've tasted better in Southern California so this is just a good back up for your asada needs. A small is shareable for 2 unless you're drunkenly, hungry.
- Al Pastor Tacos (5/5 stars): SO good, that I wished I got more than 2!
- Asada Tacos (4/5 stars): Squeeze the lime all over & you're good to go. I think picking asada for tacos are better than the fries.
- Horchata (3/5 stars): Too small for it's price, but good enough to wash down the tacos.
- They have a salsa & lime bar
* Concept:
1) Come in, pick your "MEAT line." They have specific lines for all their meats from al pastor to asada to pork to beef to beef tongue & more!
2) Ask them what you want between tacos, fries, tostadas, sopes, mulas, quesadillas & drinks. They'll grill the meat in front of you!
3) Take it to go, they'll wrap it in foil for you or dine in, they'll simply put it on a plate hot & fresh for you to eat!
4) Pay at the registers.
5) Finding a table here can get difficult, but when you keep an eye out, people leave left & right here & there. We didn't wait very long to sit down because most tables were in groups.
6) They have workers coming around cleaning up & take your trays & trash when you are done eating.
Do not be intimidated by the lines & crowd. For a Friday night, lines were fast, got our food cooked fast, & the only line that was longer here was to pay because they only have 2 registers. This is THE SPOT to eat before, during, or after partying in Vegas!
GRACIAS, Tacos El Gordo!
ps - This isn't the only location! (North LV & the strip)
