    Front desk for ordering food and shopping for treats

    Cheap tip: bring cash to avoid 4% upper for credit cards. Large parking lot so easy parking. Huge variety of Mexican favorites. We had the breakfast burrito no meat but it didn't have any potatoes as advertised on the menu board. That's the only disappointment. The cheese enchiladas were good, I had it with red and green sauce. Comes with a side of beans and rice, topped with sour cream and onions. Overall good quality food. Recommend coming here for a pit stop.

    Stretching the legs before getting into Vegas, I don't think anyone wants to stop by, this casino plaza is dying. Wow wow, I wasn't expecting much but this is pretty good. We got the carne asada plate it came with salad beans and rice. Thinly sliced, but it wasn't that stale chewy texture it was actually good. Also got the wet burrito with pork, hearty amount of pork and food balance of filling. It's real quiet here, the staff barely noticed since we're the lunch rush.

    I dont recommend the tacos - I felt they were expensive for the price with not a lot of meat. I've also been to places that have an open salsa/condiments bar so the lack of radish was also a bit disappointing. However, the shrimp ceviche was pretty good! I would come back to try their seafood as that might be their specialty. They also have another restaurant on Tropicana. Torta was okay. The asada wasn't very flavorful and the beans were beaning (they didn't add much flavor either and were there to make the sandwich more filling). I did like theu toasted the bread. The owner was very nice to talk to. Primm is a quiet area overall, but it's not a bad stop to eat here. It looks very festive for events and there's nice wall art if you are the type of person who enjoys photos for Instagram.

    Posole

    Decided to give this place a shot today, but definitely wish I wouldn't have. The food was absolutely overpriced and it was terrible.. The lady who took our order, was very short and kind of rude. Almost seemed like she didn't wanna be there. The place itself is rundown and definitely a hole in the wall. We ordered the posole and Menudo and I ordered some chicken taquitos with rice and beans. The taquitos were OK, but they didn't give you hardly any guacamole with them. The rice was terrible no flavor at all very plain and the beans were bad as well. The posole had no flavor. It was like water and they give you lettuce instead of cabbage, which just got soggy inside the soup. My husband said the Menudo was OK. I didn't try it so I wouldn't know. They don't have any fountain drink drinks with ice. They just have cans and bottles, which are also high priced. We will definitely never go there again and if you're a connoisseur of Mexican food, I suggest you try somewhere else. I was hoping it would be better but it was not good.

    Two carne asada tacos

    Would not recommend. Food is average at best and service is worse. Ordered 2 carne asada tacos in the drive thru, they gave me 2 rice and beans tacos. Tried to cover it with cabbage - probably didn't expect me to come back and return but I did. When I did they gave me what was clearly a different taco. Not an accident. Never coming here again, recommend you don't waste your time.

    Tacos de pollo

    Excellent food with friendly service. Loved the decor, felt like I was in Mexico. Be sure to stop when you are going through Primm! You do not want to miss this hidden gem.

    I asked for green enchiladas and they gave me this plate looking like throw up

    Would not recommend this place at all that customer service is bad and food is bad I asked for a cup of water and they gave me faucet water. They clearly do not care about their customers.

    This is the cup that was given for my drink. They had bigger cups but this is what they gave me.

    When we arrived we weren't sure if we would be seated or we should order at the front. No prices on the pictures of food, we were never given menus. I asked for a cup of ice for the canned soda and they gave me a cup the size of a shot glass. The food wasn't bad but the prices were ridiculous. We were also never given a receipt. We had Chilaquiles with coffee and a breakfast burrito with a canned soda for $40 Also no paper towels in the restroom to dry your hands. And the napkins are the cheapest napkins I've used.

    Bacon breakfast burrito no potato. Perfection!
    Jocelyn R.

    Don't judge a book by it's cover! Not a fancy looking place but wow is the food so good. Ordered a bacon breakfast burrito and it was perfect! Great service too. Eat here over any of the other choices in the area. Will be stopping every time I go to Vegas!

    TOO EXPENSIVE quality of food and quantity does not match what they are charging. three enchiladas plate was small they use the small corn tortillas chicken seemed old. Pozole meat was not cooked all the way the radish looked old. The tortas have very little meat and fillings. We wont be stopping here anymore.

    Taco plate...$16 for this

    Superb food. I'd been wanting to try this place for years and I finally see the hype. Everything…read moreabout their tacos is next level from the tortillas to the sauces. I can't stop thinking about the guac sauce that came with the pork tacos. There is so much variety and everything is cooked so tender or if you get the tripa, really crispy. But, the guest experience is awful. As a first timer, the layout is very confusing. I had to look on Yelp to figure out what to do, which was a good call because otherwise we would have stayed in the same line together and only be able to order one thing. It was just me and my fiancé, so we could only go in two lines. He lined up in the pork line and I went to the line that had the beef tongue, cabeza and tripa. If we had a third person, I would have also gotten the carne asada. So, the fact that there's no flexibility to order different things because of the line you're in makes the experience incredibly limiting. I happened to come after a BTS concert on a Sunday night, not anticipating a big crowd, but boy was I wrong. We waited more than an hour in each line, and it was a battle to find a table to sit after checking out. To make matters worse, the radish and lime bar was completely wiped out. We waited it out a bit for them to restock the bar but we eventually got impatient and started eating. I loved the food, but sadly the experience deters me from wanting to return.

    I'm very picky about Mexican food being from Phoenix and eating it at least 1-2 times a week there…read more I've tried a few other recommended Mexican restaurants and Carolinas did not disappoint!!! The salsas, guac, and their chips...out of this world flavor! Loved the tomatillo based salsa...SO good! I ordered the Cheese enchiladas as it's been years since ai had good enchiladas....ordered them with the Tinga chicken and they were amazing!!! The flavors were excellent, the cheese melted just right, and the chicken so flavorful and tender. I also ordered the Horchata hoping a praying it wasn't the watered down stuff you find everywhere....nope! It was creamy, thick but not too thick, cinnamon, rice, and I tasted a hint of a little something else...nutmeg.....surprised and blew my mind. I will most definitely be coming back here to order food again! So amazing!!!

    Located off the 95/11 and Craig road, this cute little spot definitely has a lot of personality!…read more From the second we walked in we felt welcomed and relaxed. They do have chips & salsa for a charge, but the chips are excellent and the salsa is yummy. We ordered birria egg rolls and our guests got Vegan enchiladas and tacos.
