    Seafood Camarones Menu
    Alison C.

    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.

    The food is pretty good it's authentic Mexican food that's fairly priced. The menudo is really good here & usually isn't listed on the menu outside

    Chicken and carne asada tacos.
    Jennifer D.

    Grabbed chicken and carne asada tacos from the drive through, had a little wait while it was freshly made. Tacos were packed full of delicious meat with onion and cilantro. The woman who took our order was great. They also added a green salsa which was delicious but spicy. Will definitely stop here on my next drive to Vegas.

    Posole
    Michelle H.

    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
    Marina M.

    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!

    Hole in the wall place connected to a gas station, but one of the most well-balanced breakfast…read moreburritos I've ever had (and I lived in east LA!). I guess it tracks since their sign says "Authentic food from California." Their breakfast burritos are flavorful but not super heavy or oily, which helps prevent that post-meal coma. My biggest gripe with many breakfast burritos is that they're typically super egg or cheese heavy, but at Rodolfo's, the ingredients are pretty even; they include more veggies (onions, bell pepper) than normal, which adds a nice crunch. Everything is cooked on a flat top together so it's all well incorporated and fresh. The folks that work here are friendly and nice. I've only l gotten to go, but they have 3 tables inside that accommodate up to 4 people each if you want to eat here. During lunch time, they usually have a steady stream of people so it can take up to 10-15 min to get your order if it's busy, but they're worth the wait! They take tap and card. Can't wait to come back for their tacos

    Authentic Mexican Food made fresh. I had a Super Burrito…read morewith a two cheese enchiladas. Everything tasted great! I was disappointed the cheese enchiladas were cold. Was expecting them to be hot with cheese melted. Friendly welcome at order window. Casual seating area with large Billboard Menu displaying vast varsity of plates & side items. This small local business is connected to the Short Line Express Market. Open until Midnight! Super Burrito with shredded beef was UPTIGHT! A short drive from my hotel. Flavor was spot on, great portions inside Super Burrito! I'll be back if I am near here again!

    I mean where else can you get the beautiful warmth of TJ tacos than tacos el Gordo…read more Sure it's a tourist den late at night. But come in at 10a when they open. It's all the landscapers and construction guys. They could eat anywhere. But they choose the place that's $4 tacos. Good stuff. Go early and save yourself the headache of the long lines.

    The experience is definitely interesting…read more First, parking is a headache. I honestly wonder how the zoning allows this kind of setup with so many people coming in and out. Finding a spot can be frustrating. What I do find interesting is the variety of meats. You can get the usual steak and pork, but they also have things like lengua, tripa, cabeza, and even brain. If you're adventurous with your meat choices, there's definitely a lot to explore. The ordering system is also interesting. Different meats have different lines, so if you want several types, you basically have to move from one line to another. That's kind of fun in theory, but when the place is packed, it becomes a lot of waiting. One thing I wasn't a fan of was the tip box being right in front of you while ordering. I noticed some people tipping before they even got their food, and it gave me the impression that maybe people are hoping for bigger portions or extra stuff. The atmosphere can be crowded and chaotic, if you are first timer. The food and the whole concept are definitely interesting, but with the parking, crowds, multiple lines, and long wait, the service experience was below average for me. Worth trying once if you want to experience the different meats. It's just my opinion, I will suggest separate the guacamole from the tacos, some people put everything but I feel soggy and messy. My suggestion just cilantro and onions and everything on side but again they didn't give me the guacamole on side. From my experience from parking, the long waiting , service, price and the food taste....its not like wow so it's just more like new experience.
