Hot cheetos tacos
Roy M.

Came here while visiting from Reno and honestly, I wish I ordered more. We got the Hot Cheetos tacos, asada gordita, lengua taco, chicharrón taco, and an asada taco. Everything was so good. The lengua taco is a MUST. Super tender and full of flavor, probably my favorite out of everything we tried. If you want something different, try the Hot Cheetos tacos. They're unique but actually really good, not just a gimmick. The asada gordita really impressed me too. The tortilla tasted freshly made and the texture was perfect. You can tell they care about what they're serving. On top of that, the customer service was great. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Definitely coming back next time I'm in Vegas. Highly recommend.

Sorry! Wasn't impressed. Idk....everything tasted like it was missing something. My son got a bean and cheese burrito.... We shared the carne asada fries and I got the chicken Flautas with rice n beans. I messed up and should have got beef! Oh well!

I made it to Abuela's for their 15th anniversary in business celebration. They had a huge party, some city council member made it there and other officials. A dj was present and a mariachi band was also present. A huge contingent of low rider vehicles were there ti help celebrate the occasion. Now let's get down to what I'm interested in, the food, I ordered the lengua taco and a al pastor. The lengua seemed to be just boiled with no spices to bring out some flavour, it was rather bland, just boiled lengua without any character. The al pastor is certainly not what I expected, I'm normally used to al pastor being more moist with a little sauce, this was also not the case. Other than their celebration the food was lacking for me. Nothing really special but passable.

A shrimp taco, chicken taco, & 2 carne asada tacos.

After a busy day working & running errands, I decided to grab a quick lunch to enjoy at home. I'd seen a lot of TikToks about this place, and it was on my way, so the timing was perfect. The restaurant has a super cute, homey vibe. The pictures of the abuelas on the wall are adorable, and the decor is both cozy & a bit eclectic. My food did take a little while, but I could see everything being made fresh, so I didn't mind the wait at all. I appreciate made-to-order food. I ordered a shrimp taco, a chicken taco, and two carne asada tacos. I'm glad I got a mix so I could try different options. The tortillas were delicious; honestly some of the best I've had in a while. They were fresh, slightly puffy, and sturdy enough to not fall apart. No need to double up. Loved them. The shrimp taco was decent. I assumed it'd be grilled shrimp, but I did enjoy the breading. The carne asada tacos were my favorite. Juicy, tender, flavorful, and just a little fatty in a good way. The meat had a delicious char flavor. I would order them again. The chicken taco, unfortunately, was very dry and a bit bland. Even after adding toppings and lime, it still didn't move me. Customer service was great and the prices are fair. One small downside was that online ordering wasn't available when I tried, which was disappointing. Granted, I didn't try calling, but the website does have a button to order online for pickup via GrubHub. Also, while most of the restaurant was clean, I did notice crumbs & what looked like a spill on the bench next to me. It looked like someone had the Hot Cheeto tacos & the bench hadn't been wiped off. Overall, this is a locally-owned worth checking out, especially for the carne asada.

Al pastor Torta.

I have no idea how this place has so many positive reviews because the food is an absolute insult to authentic Mexican cuisine. It tastes like bottom-tier cafeteria food. I ordered the torta al pastor and it was completely inedible. The meat was a salty mess but somehow had zero actual flavor, the bread was the cheapest quality possible, and they literally just tossed a whole tomato inside instead of actually preparing it. It was so repulsive I couldn't even finish it. If you want real Mexican food, stay far away from this place. It is pure garbage.

Flautas Specialty
Cindy R.

Our first time coming here and we were greeted by Leslie the owner. You can tell she takes pride in her business and delivering amazing food. We had the tacos and tortas Al pastor and chicken flautas and tacos. All were so delicious and the handmade tortillas were just the icing on top. Not a lot of places do tortillas hechos a mano so we're happy we found this spot. The owner was so nice. She came out and asked us how our food was and just had a nice chat with her. She even gave my son complimentary rice and beans and said I know my kids liked this when they were little and she was right haha. Don't let the unassuming shopping center fool you. This place is definitely a must try when in Vegas.

Carne Asada Tacos
Cara B.

I got the carne asada tacos from Abuela's and they were very good. We took our order to go, but there is seating available if you want to dine in. We had heard about the freshly made tortillas and they definitely lived up to the hype and they were amazing. The flavor of the meat was also excellent and everything tasted fresh. The workers were very kind and you can tell they put a lot of effort into their food and service. The inside of restaurant has a simple, welcoming feel that makes it easy to enjoy a meal there if you choose to stay. If I lived closer, I would definitely come back more often.

Asada taco hot Cheetos no onion
Ligia D.

The aroma of food when we walked in we knew it would be tasty. Decided to try their famous hot Cheetos taco and get it with asada. And wanted to get a burrito but not be too full so decided the bean and cheese. The tortilla was handmade there so even better. Very soft texture and had a kick to it. The habanero salsa I liked better than the green. Very clean establishment even restrooms were spotless. Great customer service and fast.

Hot Cheetos Tacos
Robin H.

I came here on a whim as it was one of the places I've wanted to try whenever I was in Vegas seeing it on my Instagram. The service was very helpful and kind. Ambiance inside gave me a very family friendly experience. I got their Hot Cheetos Tacos (asada) and they were pretty big. It was like 2 small tacos packed in 1. Their tortilla is handmade I believe and the tacos were pretty good. The asada didnt taste as fresh but still packed a punch. It's definitely a must try.

Today, I came with my family for lunch and it was the first time bringing our kids who have multiple food allergies. Our server, Vanessa, was very accommodating, and Ruben, who is one of the main kitchen staff, came over and gave us complete confidence that none of the food we ordered would contain any of the food allergens we notified them of. All of our food came out without issue and tasted super delicious, as always. We ordered the Vegan Loaded nachos, Shrimp street taco plate, wings, and two kids meals (Sauteed shrimp and beef tacos) and everyone loved their food. In past visits, we've ordered their Margaritas which were amazing. I highly recommend coming to Nacho Daddy for both big groups, couples, and even families. They have a very nice variety of food and drinks and it's also conveniently located.

This place is not worth your money. You can get better quality food and larger portions for one-third of the price at Don Tortaco. Yes, this place is THAT bad. We ordered the carne asada nachos, a chorizo breakfast burrito, a bean and cheese burrito, and two strawberry churros. The breakfast burrito honestly wasn't bad. However, it was $20, and I still felt like I needed another burrito afterward. The carne asada nachos looked were made with a mix of ground beef and carne asada instead of just carne asada. The most disappointing item was the $15 bean and cheese burrito. I included a photo in this review because it was mostly tortilla, and the cheese wasn't even melted. As for the churros, we originally ordered regular churros, but they told us they didn't have plain churros available on a Friday night, so we were pushed into getting the strawberry ones instead. Despite being strawberry flavored, they were drenched in cinnamon and sugar. They were awful.

OMG what an experience at this restaurant. My husband booked it for our anniversary…read more It is located next to the Aria entrance at the Crystal Shops, so do self parking at the Aria Hotel. This is a place that you need to make reservations and come nicely dressed. No flip flops, no shorts for men, no baseball caps. They have a VIP Lounge for their Members, including a Hidden Menu for them. Ambiance is very romantic, low lights, music, performers staring at 8pm every night. Perfect for a romantic date, business dinner or celebrating something. Food is Mexican upscale an very exquisite. They have original drinks and each dish is beautifully decorated. We ordered a Matcha Martini (can't even describe how good it was). For food we had the Crispy Calamari and Chicken Enchiladas. Perfect for sharing, delicate and it is a explosion of flavors in your mouth. Service is so outstanding, Mariah and Jesus were our servers. You get assigned two servers even being a party of two. Since entering the restaurant we were treated like VIP and everyone said Happy Anniversary to us. They had even read our special instructions of dietary restrictions (gluten and dairy free). At the end of our dining experience the Chef sent us a Dairy Free, Gluten free and Vegan dessert on the house to celebrate oour special day. It was such the perfect touch to end our dining experience. It was our first time here, we will definitely come back and reserve for a later time since the only thing we missed were the performers because they show up later at night.

I don't give out a lot of 5's and if someone were to argue against it I can see why. For me though,…read morehere's why it's a 5. In short, the food is delicious, the drinks are consistently good, the service is on point and the vibes at night scream date night. This place has a special place in my heart because it's where I discovered the carajillo, the carajillo I use as the gold standard for all carajillos; granted the OG version with cream is the best. They have great variety of cocktails and getting them is an experience all on their own. Each drink and its presentation are unique to one another. Great IG worthy drinks. As for the food everything was delicious and the proteins tender. Portions are pretty decent for this type of place. Also they're on online so you can kind of splurge a little if you want to Not sure if it's every night but I have seen live musicians and fire dancers there.
