    a food truck with menus on the side
    Alex C.

    This little taco truck has become my latest addiction! Cukis parks just south of the intersection of Decatur and Blue Diamond, behind the Hospital, from about 11AM to 2PM on weekdays BRING CASH BECAUSE THAT'S ALL THEY TAKE! But I promise you won't regret it! Carne Asada Tacos; that's all I have to say. Carne Asada, Onion, Cilantro, Cheese, Corn Tortilla, side of Lime. These tacos are fucking heavenly...And they're so inexpensive! Cuki's also has way more than just tacos, but what are you waiting for? Stop reading this review and go indulge yourself!

    My Shrimp Cocktail
    Ingrid C.

    I drove by hundreds of times. It's a Mexican catering truck close for construction workers and unemployed men looking for work. Needless to say I never felt the need to stop, especially since I'm not taking my chances with street food I have heard nothing about, I want to enjoy every meal. My husband is more adventurous for he began to frequent this place about maybe a year ago. One morning after dropping me off at work and tackling a horrendous hangover his usual cure, In N Out was not yet open. He made that left turn on Decatur and Blue Diamond towards Southern Highlands and there he decided to stop at Cukis in desperation! He was so pleasantly surprised. He would not stop talking about it. He got, as he said the most f****** delicious breakfast burrito ever!! He began to go at least twice a week. Sometimes before I was leaving for work in the morning. He started to bring me this shrimp cocktail, that I refused to eat along with everything else he got from there. He would take my 6 year old there every morning, She would always get the quesadilla. They would sometimes eat it there. She loved it there! He began to be well known there, they call him the "Gringo"! Well i broke down and tasted his burrito (and yes it was very very good), and then the tacos also very tasty and fresh. but it wasn't until I had their shrimp cocktail was I so regretting not trying it!! They call it Cocktail de camarones, although I thought it was a ceviche. Whatever it is it's so so good. Fresh chunks of avocado, beautifully clean tasting tomato sauce, crisp tiny onions and wonderful seasonings and cilantro! It's s light yet so satisfying and healthy. I might be wrong but it really seems that they really take a lot of pride in making it!! So in conclusion, I had to share this and put this business on our Yelpy map for they really deserve it! By the way, I haven't personally stopped there myself but my husband tells me their clientele has changed a great deal. Sadly, he is not their only "Gringo" anymore and they are a lot busier. Sorry I don't quite know the hours or days. I'm assuming they are open very early on weekdays and maybe they are done by 5.

    I'm very hesitant to post a review on this little truck. We've been going here now for 4 years and it is by far the best el Pastore Taco in this city. I can only hope that it will never change. Every time I'm in Las Vegas this is breakfast for at least 5 out of 7 days. Can't wait to get back. Nice job everybody

    BIG Carnitas Burrito! Must try
    Matt L.

    Trust me when I say this is best taco truck on the south side of town. If someone knows of a better one please let me know! Don't play yourself and go to the red tack truck that is parked in the same location as Cukis. Cukis is 100 times better with essentially the same menu. Also don't be intimidated they speak both Spanish and English and are very friendly! Do yourself a favor and Grove then a try. My go-to is the carnitas burrito that is always very moist and flavorful and their avocado salsa is to die for!

    Pastor tacos

    Located on Decatur and blue diamond.. On the side street.. Every time I crave for tacos I would stop by here to get at least 3 pastor tacos. That's my favorite, tried the beef but don't really like it. Kinda bland and chewy.. Tacos are $1.25 each..I haven't try anything else here beside the tacos..This food truck is always pack. Which means it's good, unlike the truck on the opposite street.

    Pollo taco. A little more spice than I had expected.

    Super fresh and flavorful tacos. Al pastor was full spice and flavor but not greasy at all. Lengua was beefy and tender. Carne asada was lean and predictably bland for those with tamer taste buds; My 3 year old loved it though and ate two tacos before I even sat down. 4 salsas to choose from, all very different flavors and with varying heat levels. Next time will try the mulas and coctel de camarone - saw someone else order them when I was there and they looked awesome. Should be noted they have breakfast items and hamburgers, sandwiches, chips, sweets, drinks, etc available too.

    Two tacos. Carnitas and asada

    Just found this spot while dropping my son off at daycare. Seriously the best tacos I've had in Vegas.

    Asada and carnitas tacos. Salsas are super good

    They are still located on the corner of Blue Diamond & Decatur. Just one street south of Blue Diamond behind Dignity Health.

    Ask the Community - Cukis

    Did they move, and does anyone have their number?

    When turning South on Decatur (at Blue Diamond), there's a road where you will turn left (there isn't a turn lane) that's goes behind the hospital. Cuki's is the white food truck parked on that street!

    Tried looking for this truck today?Where are you usually located at?

    It is on Decatur south of Blue Diamond, on the east side of Decatur

They have a Loteria drinking game, with each card matching a drink on the menu. Fun idea, but when explained seemed confusing. The drink was ok, too sweet for me and a little small for the price. Menu highlights for me was The dirty corn, salsa flight, and my (2) taco plate. The dirty corn was a standout with elote-style corn in a bowl, topped with chicharron, chorizo, and spicy mayo. It delivers that street corn flavor, but with a good mix of textures and spice. My tacos were delicious. I tried one grilled shrimp taco and one carnitas taco, served with rice and beans. The blue corn tortillas were a nice touch and pillowy soft! The carnitas were amazing, great flavor and super tender. I shrimp tacos were just as good and when topped with their habanero, verde, and roja salsa, that heat and flavor depth gets elevated! Overall, it's a dependable neighborhood spot with a fun atmosphere, creative touches, and good food that makes it worth a visit if you are in the area!

    After an early morning flight into Vegas, my sisters and I went to Chica for brunch. We got a…read morereservation, which didn't really seem necessary as it was pretty empty when we got there. The vibes are really fun, very vibrant and there are various rooms that could offer more intimate spaces if you wanted. We were greeted pretty promptly, but the service was admittedly slow. He was attentive when around, and there was someone always coming around and filling our water, but it did take a bit to get our order in and receive our food. The food was absolutely delicious! I can't remember the name of my meal, but it had steak with chimichurri, fried plantain, pico, avocado, beans, rice and an egg. My favorite part was definitely the steak! It was perfectly cooked and the chimichurri added the best brightness that the dish needed! There are so many spots in Vegas so I'm not sure I'd come back but I definitely enjoyed it.

Every food item on the Happy Hour menu is $12, which makes it a great way to try a variety of dishes without spending a fortune in Vegas. We ordered the shrimp tacos, CHICA nachos, Firecracker Wings, quesa-birria empanadas, potato flautas, shrimp ceviche, and ahi tuna bites. Everything was absolutely delicious, and there honestly wasn't a bad dish in the bunch. One thing to keep in mind is that these truly are small plates. Don't expect a lot of food with each $12 dish. They're perfect for ordering several different things and sharing, but if you're really hungry, you'll definitely want to order multiple plates. The Firecracker Wings had a really nice kick to them. We loved the spice, but if you have a lower spice tolerance, be careful with those! Also, a heads-up about the shrimp ceviche: CHICA's version is more tomato-based rather than the bright, lime-forward ceviche you might be expecting. It was still really good, but if you don't like tomato-based ceviche, that's definitely something to know before ordering. For drinks, we tried the CHICA-Rita, Palomita, and Tommy's Margarita. They were running a 2-for-1 drink special for $21 total, which was such a great deal, especially for Vegas. Between the absolutely delicious food, fun atmosphere, and Happy Hour pricing, we really enjoyed CHICA. It's a great spot if you like ordering a bunch of small plates for the table and getting to try a little bit of everything.
