| - I've been here twice & the food has always been really good... and this has become one of my favorite Mexican restaurants.
I'm pretty adventurous with food, so my party ordered: Carne Asada Fries, Taco de Lengua (beef tongue), Taco de Cabeza (beef head), Lengua Fries, Taco de Adobada (spicy pork), & Adobada fries.
[FOOD]
* All were really really good! The lengua was my fav, and cabeza has a bit of a gamy taste.
* Their fries were also really good... And HUGE portions. They're apparently known for their Adobada fries, but I wasn't a fan for some reason. I preferred the other 2 fries over this.
* They also have my favorite drink: Jamaica Tea (hibiscus tea) & it's perfectly sweetened, and free refills! Score!!!
* I believe corn tortilla is the default for their tacos. I prefer flour tortilla & they're able to provide that instead... And it's a little bigger too!
* They have this green sauce they put on their fries (cilantro aioli type) and it's soo good! I asked for extra sauce to add to my tacos
* They provide a pretty generous amount of guacamole on their fries
[PRICE]
* Reasonable & similar to Robertos & other fast food style Mexican restaurants. Although their fries are a little more expensive ($12 for a full size, $7 for half), their portion sizes make up for it.
[ORDERING]
* This can be a little confusing; You order first at 1 window, wait for your food, then walk over to the other side of the room to pay.
* They keep their hot sauce with the cashier. It's free, but they keep it refrigerated. I'm not sure why they don't display them together with the veggies.
[Restaurant]
* It's more fast food/to-go style: you order, receive your food, and pay at different counters.
* There are people cleaning the tables & removing empty containers while you're still at the tables, but no ones serving you.
* It's actually pretty clean for a restaurant on the Strip. Most fast food joints on the Strip are a bit janky. But, this isn't too bad!
It's a bummer the closest location to me is this one (on the Strip) & I wish they had one on the west side so I could eat here more often.
