Where Fast Food Meets the Finest Quality: Welcome to Los Tacos" By Ted Cucuro, Las Vegas Nevada AI News, Hospitality Correspondent When you first walk into Los Tacos, you immediately sense that this isn't your typical fast-food taco joint. There's no table service, no flashy online presence, no delivery apps buzzing in the background--just the aroma of fresh-cut ingredients, simmering sauces, and authentic recipes passed down from the owner's grandmother and father. And that's when it hits you: this place is different. In the best way possible. Los Tacos makes a bold claim--"Simply the Best"--but after becoming a regular customer, I can tell you they've earned it the hard way; through an uncompromising commitment to freshness, quality, and tradition. Every single item on the menu is made that same day. Nothing carries over. Nothing gets reheated from yesterday from the rice and beans to the salsa to the guacamole, everything is hand, cut, hand prepared and made from scratch each morning. The only thing in the building that isn't house-made is the ketchup. Their ingredients? USDA Choice Sirloin is used for every beef dish--tacos, burritos, quesadillas, no shortcuts. Shrimp cocktails feature generous 31/40 size shrimp and can even include octopus and Hillmans' certified oysters. Fish tacos are made with beautifully flaky New Zealand Hoki, lightly seasoned and cooked to perfection. They even offer beef tongue (lengua) - a delicacy rarely found outside true traditional kitchens. Fresh tomatoes, onions, and cilantro are chopped daily; nothing comes pre-bagged or pre-prepped. Even the meats are processed in-house every single day And let me tell you from personal experience: you can taste the difference. My personal favorites--the shrimp tacos, fish tacos, and shrimp cocktail--have never once disappointed. The shrimp is plump and sweet, the fish is tender with a crisp edge, and the cocktail is bright refreshing and packed with seafood. It also includes fresh chopped avocado, which came by great surprise. These dishes that don't just taste homemade... they are homemade, built from recipes and methods passed down through generations. The menu is mostly in Spanish, but don't let that intimidate you. The staff is wonderfully friendly and always ready to help you understand every dish so you can choose exactly what you'll love. Their warmth is as much a part of the experience as the food. For the kind of quality you're getting; truly top-tier Ingredients, meticulous preparation, and made fresh daily dishes; the prices are surprisingly reasonable. This place easily competes with full service restaurants while offering the simplicity of counter service. Los tacos may look like a casual walk up eatery from the outside, but step inside and you'll discover a culinary gem hiding in plain sight. If you want food, that's authentic fresh handcrafted and absolutely delicious. This is the kind of place worth driving to-- and worth coming back to again and again. Simply the best? Yes. And then some. read more

After a long day of traveling, Sin City and being from Texas, I didn't want any more buffets or any more cafés at the moment I wanted something quick and fast and I targeted Carl's Jr. always a great standby, However, I end up passing it missing the turn had to make a U-turn, then I seen this place Los tacos with a drive-through. I thought to myself why not give it a chance in the blind support local businesses, right? The menu seemed pretty basic lots of choices lots of meats but for me it's Carne Asada. I asked for the burrito. The lady at the speaker told me what came in it. I added rice and cheese. I had also asada taco all for about $19. Didn't have to wait too long. They were pretty busy inside the hostess who took my money was very pleasant. Very happy doing her job. I think she's the face of the business. I asked her do you charge for ice water and she told me no it's free so she gave me one. I mentioned this because earlier at Del taco they want to charge me the full price for an ice water as a soda or a Coke. I'll pass thank you. Who starts charging for water? What's up with that anyways I got the food. She gave me some salsa and I'm off to back to my hotel. It was about 15 minutes by time I started biting into the burrito and I will tell you this sucker weighed like a pound very solid, pico de gallo beans, rice, and cheese and lots of steak. The green sauce she told me that was mild had a little kick to it, but it was the perfect topping to compliment my burrito. So full, I forgot I had a separate soft taco in the bag which consisted of two corn tortillas more steak pico de Gallo and beans. honestly, I just ate steak and left the tortillas behind because that is a huge meal. Definitely a fan. Definitely will try again on my next trip down here. according to yelp, they have two locations. I would definitely give them a chance and give them your business. Five stars all the way great tasting burrito very satisfied. read more

I love this place. Doesn't matter what kind of meat you order it's all done to perfection! Simple menu, but the most delicious food. And the chips are crispy and salsa are freshly made. The loaded tacos are packed with flavor and toppings. There is a drive through and lots of parking. Good amount of seating inside, but if you come between 11-12 for lunch, expect a line at the register and a wait for a seat. (But the food comes up fast) Stsff is really nice and efficient. It's a nondescript white building that's easy to drive by, but worth the visit!!! read more

food is overpriced not good and they serve you with an attitude also the tacos have no meat mostly beans ,4 carne asada tacos and a small bottle of water for 28 dollars is ridiculous read more

Charging that much for a single taco is wild. The price doesn't match what you're getting. And the guy at the register had the nerve to get an attitude when I asked if they raised the prices on the tacos NEVER GOING THERE AGAIN ! Gave it 1 star can't give it anything less. read more

Los Tacos - ROBBERY!!!!!! 1 taco - Mexican Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

My husband and I came in here and walked right out ! 1 single tacos is almost 7$ !!! That's insane you can literally get tacos at a food truck near by for half the price and great quality . These prices are insane. read more

Been coming here for years and the food is great! but the male cashier they have upfront now always had an attitude and an obvious face expression that clearly says "I hate my job". Makes me not wanna come back solely on that cashier who also messed up my order 2 times in a row now. read more

Excellent taco! Meat was juicy, toppings were plentiful, and green salsa was delicious but not spicy. Service was quick for late lunch time. Seating was enough for that time but assume nighttime rush would be a bit small. Easy parking lot. Only one star off because $8 a taco seems a little wild but it was tasty! read more

Los Tacos - Carne Asada Tacos Con Todo - Mexican Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

This used to be my favorite taco spot, but in the last year the food quality severely declined. I ordered chicken tacos with everything and added pico de gallo. The chicken is in huge chunks, boiled, and no flavor. The rest of the ingredients are just as bland. I'm disappointed and won't return unless something changes. read more

I would rate this Los Tacos Location a 0! I I brought my mother through the drive-through to enjoy the food because I always have a great experience at the Charleston location. When I came to the Sahara location, we went through the drive-through and the worker got angry at me because HE couldn't speak English. I had a very easy order. He was angry because I told him he charged me for extra things that I didn't want and proceeded to ask me "mommy do you want the tacos or not?" It was a very nasty experience. He was a very nasty worker. Nobody in the location speaks English, and when we asked for someone who did they all laughed.The Sahara locations sucks. Very unprofessional. read more

Inside and outside dining. Big parking lot plus drive thru. Fresh meat is all cooked in an open kitchen. The tacos are fully loaded and the fresh taste is delicious! read more

I used to love this place! I typically go eat there with my mom for lunch break and it's always been a great experience. Today I decided to go back and I had the worst experience there. I kindly asked the cashier if I could get my shrimp cocktail warmed and after almost half an hour of waiting for it, they served it to me scorching hot. I patiently waited 20 minutes before eating it and the first bite burned my tongue horribly. I went up to the front and asked the girl who was prepping the food if they could help me because I couldn't eat my food from how hot she made it. She rolled her eyes at me and told me to ask for the cashier to help me. When I got to him and told him what happened, he asked them to fix my food and told them he didn't have the energy to argue with me as if it was my fault. He told me to wait 5 minutes for another shrimp cocktail and after 15 minutes when my lunch break was pretty much over, I get called up there and I told them to just pack it up to go. The same girl who rolled her eyes at me didn't bother packing it and the guy who was also working with her serving food decided to do anything but pack my food for a few minutes. I could tell they were both bothered by the fact that I almost burned my mouth off and had kindly asked them to redo it. I am super disappointed with the customer service of that place and I hope they work on their people skills especially the guy and girl who work the front and the cashier who I think might be related to the owner of the restaurant. Make sure if they mess up your food that you don't complain about it because they will just laugh it off like they did with me today. read more

Top Tier. Nobody do a fully loaded asada taco like Los Tacos. I've been going to this location since 2016 and they have never failed me. They got me eating things that I wouldn't normally eat (avocado & pinto beans) but you really cannot go without those ingredients. Everything goes together beautifully. I usually order one at a time bc it's so juicy, it can get soggy if you don't inhale it quick lmao. I just found out about their other location down towards the east side and I'm pretty excited to try it, hopefully they pull thru like Sahara location does! read more

Hands down the best tacos and Camaron I've had. The tacos are packed with meat. Totally worth it. Every time I visit Vegas, I always come here. Service is great. 10/10 Highly recommend. read more

Los Tacos is a solid whole in the wall Mexican joint located right off the Las Vegas strip. My friend and fellow California transplant introduced me to this spot for lunch one day and it is now one of our usual haunts when we are craving Mexican food at lunch time. The area is sketch, and the interior is dated, but they make up for it with the love they put into the food. Service is always friendly, and our food always comes out nice and hot. I was sold from the first bite of my mission style carne asada taco. Buttery beans, tasty carne asada, super fresh pico, guac, and sour cream- get in mah belly! The quesadillas are things that dreams are made of. Buttery, crispy tortilla stuffed with all of the cheese, meat, pico, sour cream, and guac that your heart desires. I bathe my food in their tasty salsa verde. They get bonus points for having Jamaica. For some reason- some places in Vegas don't serve it which is just plain blasphemous. read more

This is probably my favorite taco spot! So happy it was introduced to me. Hands down it's better than Tacos el Gordo which is next door. Everything I've had here is delicious...rice, beans, carne asada and lengua tacos! The service is impeccable! I usually will go through the drive-thru, which is so convenient and usually fast. The lady at the window is always so pleasant and welcoming. I've eaten inside the restaurant which is not modern, but always very clean. I look forward to eating here whenever I can. I highly recommend to give it a try! read more

The food was excellent as of now one of my favorite spots. For Mexican food Service needs a little help. The guy behind the counter, taking your money was not very friendly when you asked him for things he seemed annoyed. The people making your food were quick and efficient ambience definitely indeed of the remodel, but that's doesn't matter when the food is so good we were there when it opened and by the time we left, it was packed read more

Tacos you eat with a fork. That big. About $8 per taco. But it's worth it. Flavorful Carne Asada with everything. Horchata is delicious. Close to downtown but fsr enough from the disastrous strip. 24hrs. So it's a great after-hours stop. read more

Los Tacos - Delicious.. - Mexican Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I went here on April 15th. My petite burrito was $7.86. I gave the cashier in the drive thru $8.11 so that she would give me a quarter back. She told me I gave her the wrong amount, and I explained that I wanted 25 cents back. She gave me two dimes and a nickel for change. I still remember this 2 months later, which is why I'm writing a review. The food is not remarkable enough to go back and deal with cashiers that don't understand how to give change. read more

A piece of metal from a (cleaning sponge?) was found inside my husbands burrito today. Not cool. This can kill someone and at the very least, cause MAJOR problems. read more

I like their food I just went through the drive-through. There was a new girl working and she screwed my order all up because she does not speak well enough English.!!!!! You guys screwed that one up!!! read more

Ordered 3 tacos to go for my lunch. The lady preparing the tacos is rude and with an attitude. Just because I asked for extra salsas. Which is okay if they charge for it but she doesn't need to be rude about it . I am paying for the extra salsas any way not getting them for free so why be rude about it. The lady can easy say it will 25 cents for each. read more

**Warning** Hot spot alert ! Let's start off by saying this is not your typical Mexican taco shop, there are no little tacos. But what there is A next level magical gourmet taco, quesadilla and burrito shop and some pretty amazing shrimp cocktails. Look no further they have hands-down the best quesadillas in the Americas, there lightly toasted, order it with everything which includes pico de gallo guacamole and sour cream I like it with Chicken but wanted Carne today, imagine if you will the best pizza and Mexican food all wrapped into a delicious cheesy concoction cooked to absolute perfection. The Carme Asada tacos are two regular size tortillas with cheese meat order it with everything one taco is enough for lunch very big portions but full of flavor and deliciousness. The shrimp cocktail I had , had fresh shrimp and squid, The sauce was a little bit slightly on the sweeter side which I really enjoyed a lot of cilantro avocado and other items. If you're in Vegas looking for something not typical for Mexican food this is it. read more

Ok so this place was down the street from me so I decided to walk over. Once I go there the ac was out! About 5 mins in I start overheating, it was sooooo freaking hot I tried to call ahead but they didn't answer the phone. I had order the chicken quesadilla and the asada nachos which I waited about 25 mins for. And the chicken quesadillas tasted like a chicken sandwich no seasoning at all . And the nachos were just ok. The prices are really high too I'd probably skip this place next time. read more

Idk how they don't have 5 stars .. mini burritos. REAL guacamole not that weird green slime like everywhere else. The nachos are super good too. read more

Some of the best tacos I have ever tasted! Definitely a must go for locals and tourists alike! Thank you Los tacos tacos!

Their food is good and their service is ok. Cashier seemed like he didn't want to be there but the cooks were very nice. Their cheese quesadillas are my favorite! Their carne asada burrito is good too but a bit mushy. Pastor tacos was a bit too salty but it's good. Carne asada tacos were good but mushy like the burrito. Carne asada nachos were good. Again good food. read more

I love Los Tacos! My only complaint - can you open earlier? The food is so good. Burritos are not full of rice. Salsas have flavor and spice. The quesadillas are my favorite! The aqua frescas are not powder mixes. The melon and Sandia, taste like melon and sandia. read more

Great tacos! They always make them the way that I request. I usually get veggie or Asada. They are very forthcoming about their ingredients and the person at the window is always really friendly and cool. This is one of the only drive-through I ever go to. It's great to have a quick affordable tasty friendly spot nearby. read more

The tacos are outstanding and probably the best ones in Vegas! The only thing wrong with this taqueria is that it isn't on any of the food delivery companies, Uber eats, Postmates, Dash, etc. They are missing out because I would order from them, EVERYDAY! read more

Los Tacos has the best tacos in town! They are delicious! The restaurant is dated, but the food and customer service is great!

Food was just average to be honest. A taco con todo can run about $8 lol. But what I didn't like the most was the service. The guy in the drive thru gave me attitude when I asked how much an item would be. Then they messed up on our order and gave us 1 less taco. The good thing is that we live nearby so I can head back real quick. I went inside with the bag and he gave me attitude again like I was lying. Bro how you gonna get mad at a customer when you fucked up? read more

EVERYTHING went well. From Yoshi being so amazing to the food and salsa giving us life. Thank you for always giving an amazing experience read more

Los Tacos - Love the staff and food!!!! But nothing tops their verde sauce! - Mexican Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

My first burrito in Vegas and i really liked it. The carne asada burrito was very tasty. I got it loaded and I really enjoyed it. I get picky sometimes with my burrito and they made it the way I like my burrito, meaty. Lol. I was glad that my coworker took me here. He said it's one of the best, and I agree. 5 Stars. read more

Los Tacos - First time here - Mexican Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I've been coming here for years and it never disappoints. The quality is amazing. The employees are always very nice. The only issue I've had is on an occasion I'll drive all the way down there and the door has a sign that says "cash only". So anytime I plan on coming here I make sure to always have cash just in case! 10/10 read more

There are 3 of this restaurant in the city and they have a drive through, which is also nice. Their tacos are $4 plus but they do give you a ton of filling which includes beans, which isn't something I've seen before. They also wrap them in 3 shells which allows you to pick up anything that dropped. The overall flavor of the taco was good but definitely is better eaten in the restaurant if you want real cheese pull. They wrap their tacos in paper and then foil which steams them a bit inside on the way home. With all this being said, they are the most authentic tacos that I've had in Vegas so far and I'd probably return if I was in the area of this location or another. The standout for me was their tortilla chips, which were not too salty and had the right amount of crunch. Despite being warm in the restaurant, staff was friendly even when customers weren't so friendly. There were a good number of people eating in this small place, which had seating similar to a diner. read more

Los Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Cashier is very rude. Ordered 4 steak quesadillas with pico de gallo and sour cream. All four of them were missing the pico when we went up and asked if they could put it on there. They had an attitude. Part of the order was to go and they said they would make it when we requested instead they made it all at the same time. It use to be very busy in there but with the terrible customer service and the presentation of the food it is noticeably slower. Now I wish that I had not tipped them cause they surely don't understand what tip stands for. read more

It is no longer the Los Tacos that it used to be before. My recent experience on 5/22 8pm was horrific to say the least. I will never go back nor recommend this place to anyone any more. I have been to Los Tacos a lot before COVID, My wife and I really loved the food here. The employees were friendly and I had no problem with ordering anything on the menu. However tonight, it was only me in the drive through. And it took 15 minutes for them to even let me start ordering food. I asked politely if they were still there and they rudely yelled back to "wait a second wait a second " though they were not busy at all, just talking and cleaning. When it was finally my turn, all the things (3 different items) that I wanted were sold out. They blatantly and proudly said "we don't have that" and didn't even say they were sorry. At that moment I was so frustrated and said nevermind Thank you I'll go to a different store. And the girl at the window laughed and ripped my order in front off me and sarcastically said have a good day. Sure, thank you los tacos for ruining my day. Plus: Today, it is $8 for one taco with everything. How could its still just have one $ for it's price? How could this price is reasonable in Las Vegas area? read more

We visit either one of the Los Tacos every time we visit Las Vegas. The food is always delicious. We get their famous taco. I have had the cabesa and tripas as well. And the prices are reasonable. The food is prepared quickly so you can take it to your table. It's a nice enough place. Fast food vibe. Go for the food. read more

If you love, great hole in the wall, Taquerias, this place is worth the trip. Super tasty food and great salsa.
