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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Dani B.

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!

Worst experience! Ordered 2 taco plates. Carne Asada was absolutely flavorless. Tastes like old flavorless meat that was reheated again and again. To top it off, there was a hair in the taco. Carne Asada fries were same as well. Zero flavor and no seasoning on old meat. My son got the chicken strips and fries. Not sure if the meat was even chicken. More like sawdust. He ate half of one strip. My daughter said it smelled fishy when he took a bite. Next thing you know, he excused himself and ran to the bathroom to throw up. That's never happened before. Ever! I got a bean and cheese burrito. It wasn't much larger than Taco Bell and they cut the burrito in half. Who cuts a bean burrito in half. I poured green sauce in my burrito to give it flavor. Nothing was good at all. 4 out of 5 people have an instantly sour stomach. I'd avoid at all costs. read more

Ordered the chicken and beef empanadas, chili relleno burrito, and a couple of carnitas tacos. "KILLER!" The service was excellent. Everybody with smiles on their face and eager to serve you.

Your better off having Taco Bell next door for a more authentic Mexican experience. I had the burrito and my friend tried 5 taco plate. No flavor at al in the carne asada and over salted pastor. The salsa was just as bad, my burrito came with green salsa on the side that was waaaaaay too over watered. I also asked for a side of guacamole and what they gave me was some imitation trash guacamole that just had cilantro, no onion and tomato like your traditional recipe...and again it's fake guacamole meaning it probably comes in a powder form or they used squash. This too was really watery. Stay away! Don't waste your time if you've ever had the real thing. read more

This place was an absolute dump. The service was horrible. they gave us 2 salsas for 4 tacos and a burrito. when we politely asked for a few more she rudely responded with, do you have a dollar for me! I'm not giving you salsas for every taco. Really! WTF, being from L.A. I've grown up on Mexican food, and this isn't it. cold burrito with burnt interior of burrito tortilla? the tacos were gross and super greasy, the burrito was just awful. I just normally don't return somew I don't enjoy, but this place had me steaming. Don't waste your time or money in this dump. Taco Bell would have been a better choice which says a lot. Not a big fan but anything would have been better than this garbage. Stay away, Service food all in all read more

Food was okay, but service was horrible. We were making a pit stop on our drive home and decided to grab a quick bite. We ordered the Carne Asada Fries, some tacos, and both my sister and I heard my cousin order two Cokes. We sat down and spilled one of our little cup of hot sauces and went to ask for more. They took their time grabbing us some more and seemed a bit irritated that we asked for more. As we started eating, we realized we didn't get our Cokes. My cousin went to ask about it, and the lady said my cousin never ordered it. My cousin asked her to check the paper she wrote the order down on to see if she was charged for it. The lady said rudely and pointed to the counter and said she didn't have the paper anymore. Instead of finding a better way to deal with it, she starts calculating everything we ordered to prove that my cousin didn't order the Cokes. But the total didn't even add up to what my cousin paid. The whole ordeal just went on unnecessarily for too long. My cousin got frustrated and lost her appetite. read more

Stopped here because there was not much around but i was glad that we did. I figured since there was not much to choose from that the food would not be that good and would probably be overpriced. Much to my surprise I was WRONG! From the outside the place looks like a typical hole in the wall , but inside is spacious and very clean and the staff was very friendly. We ordered a 5 taco plate combo, a bean & cheese burrito, a carne asada burrito, a beef empanada and chicken taquitos. The taco plate comes with 5 tacos and a drink no beans and rice but the meats were really good asada/pastor. The bean and cheese burrito was good. We got one empanada to share it has beef and cheese inside and was very good. The taquitos were very tasty. The asada burrito was good, I found it kind of strange that the burritos come with lettuce and cheese so I ordered mine without. It had rice, beans, asada and pico de gallo. It was also really good. The one thing that made everything absolutely delicious was their red salsa!!! It was so flavorful and spicy I loved it. The green salsa was good too but the red was just over the top. I would definitely come back here. If you're in the area definitely the best choice. read more

We visited Alex's during President's day weekend. First of all the Primm Valley outlets and surrounding casinos/hotels are pretty much all dead. But that doesn't mean you don't have a great excuse to make stop here on your way to Vegas. Alex's is a very unassuming place. In fact as we were parking I told my husband the place is probably as dead as the rest of business in the area. But boy what a surprise!!! We got the salsa verde Ribs, the menudo, an omelette, and pancakes. Prices are very affordable but the best part is how delicious and generous the portions are. To top it all off, the service is extraordinary. This is a family owned restaurant. The entire family was there on the weekend, everyone from the serving staff, to the kitchen were super friendly and made the experience even better. Definitely will be coming back on my next trip to Vegas. read more

Unfortunately, my visit to this restaurant fell short of expectations. While I appreciated the staff's polite demeanor, the food quality and overall value did not justify the price. The scrambled eggs with cheese had an artificial, powdered taste, and the steak add-on was overly fatty and didn't complement the dish well. The side of potatoes had a strange aftertaste that left me uneasy about finishing them. Overall, the food lacked seasoning and cohesion. Additionally, loud music from the kitchen made communication difficult -- the cashier struggled to hear my drink order, which added to the discomfort of the experience. Given the pricing and execution, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant at this time. read more

Doesn't look like much when you walk past but we were practically dying of hunger so we popped in. I ordered the taco salad with al pastor and my husband got the Carne asada burrito and of course, had to have our mexican Cokes. Everything is made fresh so There was a small wait time but it was fine since we had fresh hot food. While we were waiting, we took a look at the different mexican candies and treats they sold and admired the decor. I loved how close it was to our hotel, too. The pricing is very good for the amount of food you're getting. We will definitely be back! read more

This establishment is sure to curb your hunger cravings. While I found the food to be decent in taste, I believe it could benefit from a bit more flavor. Our order included huevos rancheros, a ham Torta, and the Denver omelette, paired with refreshing agua de Jamaica. The ambiance is inviting, with tasteful decor and cleanliness throughout the establishment. Furthermore, the service was exceptional, adding to the overall positive experience. read more

I recently visited Alex's Mexican restaurant and I have to say, it was a fantastic experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff and the atmosphere was lively and inviting. The menu had a great variety of traditional Mexican dishes and some unique twists on classics. I opted for the traditional asada burrito and it was rich and flavorful without being too heavy, and the meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned. read more

This is the best food and service that is in-between the drive from Las Vegas to Los Angeles. Everything is authentic, the tacos are to die for ( especially the choriqueso) . You will not find a better place to eat if you are driving from Las Vegas to Los Angeles. It's located in Primm, in front of the casino and mall. I've never had a bad experience and the management and staff are just as awesome. A must get for the road trip. read more

Amazing selection of food that will satisfy any pallet. A combination of Mexican American cuisine that will have your tastebuds yearning for more. My wife and I loved this place as soon as we walked in. Stop by Alex's Mexican, you'll be pleasantly surprised and for those who like menudo, you will make Alex's Mexican your only stop on Sunday or any day. read more

We came on a Saturday morning and it was super calm vibes. The food was great! We ordered the 5 tacos with different meats (asada, pollo, pastor, buche, and carnitas) and none of them disappointed. As for service, they were fast and efficient. I didn't have too much conversation with anyone, but the whole place seemed like a nice spot to have a meal. read more

Un lugarcito con sabor a casa. Hace un año pasamos por primera vez y aquí estamos de nuevo. El menudo sin duda es mi favorito y los pancakes con fresas y bananas otro nivel.
