| - I've been to Tacos El Gordo multiple times on my last few trips to Vegas, and they continue to remain my favorite taco stop around. They get everything right:
- Street tacos
- cheap price ($2 - $5 a taco)
- fantastic "toppings"
- variety of meats from beef tongue to pastor, chorizo, asada, etc
- prompt and polite service
- on the strip, just a block down from Encore
The tacos here are delicious, miles better than anything I've had back in the Midwest or anywhere else for that matter, and considering El Gordo is only in a few cities it's worth the pilgrimage just for these alone. My favorite is the El Pastor tacos, with the meat shaved off fresh right in front of you, and some mixture of green toppings that sends the senses into a warm embrace.
Warning - this place gets busy at night, so be ready for lines if that's when you arrive. But they're open late (we've been at 3am before and during the day), so added bonus if you're having a night out on the town and need an after party spot. Thankfully the line moves extremely fast, and you will walk away ready to plan your next trip.
Don't skip this one
