  • Are you interested in waiting in line for over an hour for "just okay" Mexican food? Well you are at the right place! Tacos El Gordo is supposedly a highly rated and preferred restaurant from what I've heard. This past visit would make number two for me and again I'm left with too much more to desire. I arrived with already have anticipating a long wait, that's a given! Day before a holiday(Thanksgiving) on the Las Vegas strip? Yeah you'd think everybody would be home that night preparing some Thanksgiving dinner but nope! Organization is something that could've possibly earned this place another star from me but the jury is still out on that. This location unlike the other one I have visited in town didn't seem to have a very good process in place for the crazy line. For starters, those of you who've never been there is about 4 different lines that they normally offer, depending on what kind of meat you want on your order decides on what line you should be standing. That wasn't the case this weekend. Upon arrival I noticed there was a security guard outside which I didn't think too much of because in my mind I thought he just patrolled the entire parking lot. No.. He is designated specifically just for Tacos El Gordo and manning the traffic that goes in and out? Seriously? What the hell goes on here that they need security at a Mexican fast food joint? Inquiring minds would really like to know... Once inside there was a "snake line" meaning that there wasn't no lining up according to the meat you want. Complete chaos! The capacity of the place easily fills up and so the security guard at some points of the wait had to stand in front of the door and make sure that it never exceeds I guess the capacity of what's allowed. Oh okay is this what he is here for? Yikes! Hungry as I was I just couldn't have an order of a couple tacos. I thought I would treat myself to some campechana fries which is a mixture of the "Al Pastor" and "Carne Asada" meats. Large order will run you $13! Once I was to the ordering station I clearly stated that my choice of order was campechana! The man taking the order and also making the food was an excellent multi-tasker and I really have to commend him on his fast skills! 5 minutes later my order was being prepared and I noticed that the fries were being made without the "Al Pastor" I politely brought this to their attention. Fixed! When my order was being handed to be I guess there was another customer who ordered the same that didn't get his, by the time I took a few steps my order was snatched lol yes.. snatched from another guy. The worker saw this apologized and made me another! Security?! Umm yeah we have a campechana fry snatcher on the loose! On to the next line.. To pay.. I waited another 5 minutes so now we are talking a whole hour and fifteen minutes for some damn fries! Geezee! $14 and some change later I was on my way. Will I be back? Honestly no time soon. I just can't cope with paying $14 for some fries that weren't that spectacular. Whether you want to compare them or not I literally would prefer the Carne Asada fries from Roberto's over these I just ordered and oh save $5! Tacos El Gordo my friend you are just "iight"... **side eye**
