    Churros were good
    Rosa R.

    I've wanted to try this place for a while and it was ok. We got the taco special for unlimited tacos at $35 which is a bit high when you only have 3 tacos but that was on me. I am disappointed that the tacos are advertised as made with homemade tortillas, and when we got our tacos the tortillas were not handmade and were a bit hard. Not impressed. Pork, shrimp and birria tacos were good. Asada was not good at all! Margarita was delicious! I also want to say that the bartender / cashier was great!!! Thank you for your service!!!

    Churros - AYCE

    AYCE taco menu- OF COURSE I'm down! We came here for Restaurant Week and I'm glad we did. For Restaurant Week you got a deal on the ACYE menu plus a margarita. I underestimated my appetite as I got full pretty quick off of 3 tacos and ensalada! But there is always room for dessert-which I had 2 orders of churros. The food was pretty tasty. And the sauce definitely had a kick to it-so if you're not into spicy layoff the sauce. Or maybe I'm just weak sauce. Although ordering took a while-you have to order first at the counter-the food did come out pretty quick. The decorations are festive too.

    I tried this place on a random night and seen they were open late and had decent prices for being downtown. The chicken taco wasn't The best, the drinks were OK, and the steak could have been cooked more. I appreciated the fact they issued me a refund due to my displeasure. The manager came out and she was so accommodating and even invited me back. With customer service like that , I will definitely give this place another chance .

    Great staff, great customer service and great food specials. I had their all you can eat tacos special ($20). Plus two michelladas plus tip, came close to $40. Good people, good food, good environment. The only thing that kept me on my guard, was the area. Downtown is sketchy at best. I also ended up paying $6 for street parking (1.5 hours).

    This taco bar is the newest restaurant on East Fremont Street is by the same owners of Evil Pie (which is directly across the street). To start of the vibe and interior design is nice, has a this is going to be a great night feel. They have a Mexican Luchador design and have both American and Mexican wrestling matches playing in the background. The drinks are great and the prices are even better (for being on Fremont). Try their signature drinks oh they do have a great tequila (and other hard liquor) selection. Had to try their Michelada and it was spicy and delicious! Now the food: two words delicious and cheap!! We had a side of chips and salsa, their Mexican pizza and three tacos (two chicken and a shrimp taco). The pizza was amazing and very filling. Btw try their hot sauce, gives the food a good kick! The tacos were on point, the perfect amount of meat. Oh and the best part: all this food was around $50. Will definitely come here again.

    This mushroom taco is unbelievable! Well done Chef Carlos! Shrimp taco with the queso shell upgrade. Do it!

    On the last night of our 30th anniversary Las Vegas getaway we wanted to keep it close to the Circa (our home away from home). I was looking for a hard pour and the hubby was in search of some soft tacos. On our first day, we passed Taco Escobar on the way to the Downtown Container Park. Hubby looked it up and found they had options for his pescatarian bride of three decades. So, after a full day of running around Vegas, we closed the chapter on our Flirty 30 trip with a corner table at this interesting joint. You order at the register near the bar and they bring your drinks and food to your table. Or you can just enjoy it at the bar. Everyone was exceptionally welcoming and helpful. Felt like you were coming over to a friend's for drinks and a meal. The margarita was a very reasonably priced hard pour in a Tajin rimmed glass. Started with the chips and salsa and a side of guacamole. Generous servings, fun aesthetic, tasty beginning... Added the corn queso and black bean sides. The corn was sweet, savory, and cheesy. And the beans were rich and flavorful. We had so much chips we ended up topping them with the corn and beans and salsa and guac. Like a make your own nachos--so fun and so delicious! Who says you shouldn't play with your food?!? Hubby tried the birria and steak tacos. I had the shrimp and mushroom. We also added the queso shells on one of our selections. DO THIS! It added a savory and crispy layer of cheese around the corn tortilla shell. Fillings were flavorful and fresh. And the mushroom taco had so much umami that it tasted like meat. The texture was unbelievable! Carlos the chef came out to check on things and said he doesn't eat mushrooms but he eats this taco. The mushrooms are braised for three hours. You can tell he puts his heart into his cooking and it shows. The meal didn't feel greasy or heavy. It was just the right amount of everything. We left feeling satisfied and happy that we decided to end our trip at this small but inviting establishments right off the Fremont Street Experience. If you visit Las Vegas we encourage you to 'step outside' the strip, the hotels, and the malls. Try these local establishments and discover some delicious food and fine people while creating a unique experience and lasting memory. PS--Hubby got bought some merch and is rocking is Taco Escobar shirt in the 808!

    Attended a private event here. Basically a dive bar on Fremont Street. Ambiance It is a dive bar, however I liked the lucha libre theme on the walls. Food They had shrimp and other types of tacos on trays. Tacos cold but had good flavor. Bartenders friendly. Made stiff drinks.

    Newer bar/restaurant on east Fremont street in downtown Vegas...food is mainly Mexican handhelds, street tacos, burrito, etc; prices are ok but the tacos are smaller in size...they do have an excellent happy hour daily where for twenty bucks you get as many tacos as you can eat in a one hour period...drinks are on special then as well...service was fine and the bartender did a pretty good job for being solo, it wasn't slammed but it wasn't dead either...Mexican wrestling adorns the walls throughout, pretty cool...small seating area in back that is available for family seating...has only been open for several months or so, hopefully they can sustain, the only drawback was the $9 charged for a can of hazy little thing, a BIT high in my opinion, but, the food is very good...will try again if in downtown area...RECOMMEND

    Service was amazing the food was great. Shout out to the girl working the bar and taking orders she was running that place with little to no staff forgot her name but yeah she was whipping that place into shape

    Allyson P.

    When I tell you, I love it here I seriously keep coming back! The food is so delicious literally anything you've ordered and dare. I say the hotdog may be the best thing on the menu! The service is very quick, I love sitting at the bar because the ambience to be able to watch Fremont Street go by is the best!

    What a delightful stop during our MInt 400 cruise on Fremont st. The bartender was awesome and amazing. The vibe was great!! Didn't have food but the cocktails were amazing!!!! Definitely will be back for some more treats!

    Guadalajara Hotdog
    Lilia C.

    They have a few Mexican street food favorites. The Guadalajara Hotdog wrapped in bacon It was ok, the bun was your topical bun and cold. These Hotdogs are supposed to be hot including the bun. The Sweet corn esquire has to much cheese and cream. The Tacos Al Pastor were good. Made with small yellow tortilla. They don't offer any sides or salsa.

    Nice place to visit for high end Mexican food when you're hanging around Fremont Street, just a 1/2…read moreblock away. Try the Mexican corn appetizer with it's crumbly cotija cheese, chili, lime, and mayo on top of charred corn kernels. It's in 'esquites' form, which means it's not left on the cob like 'elote' is. Their specialty, nachos, are also well seasoned and the chips are freshly made on site. What drew me in to this restaurant was a past appearance on the Maury Povich Show, where I took a paternity test for someone who claimed she was my daughter. The end result? I was cleared, so Maury pointed at me while telling her that he's "Not yo' daddy." And so I visit Nacho Daddy on occasion, strictly for celebratory reasons. Birria nachos are excellent, made with a high quality shredded beef with pickled onion, cilantro, sour cream, cheese, and lime on top of a stack of chips. Having birria without consommé was new, but this one didn't really need it with all the flavors jumping out. Another recommendation is the cheeseburger nacho, an Americanized version with ground beef, bacon, cheddar, jack, queso, onions, tomato, and lettuce. The 'mini nachos' are perfectly sized for a light meal but if you're hungry, get the full size order which is huge and shareable. This location has been in business for 17 years now and there's plenty of seating in a nice, clean atmosphere.

    Title: The Best Birria I've Had... Period!…read more (5/5 stars) If you're a birria lover, stop what you're doing and head to Birria Bite. This place may be a small tavern-style spot with just enough seating, but don't let the size fool you. The moment you walk in, the aroma of the birria comes rolling out of the kitchen like a raging bull--it lets you know you're in the right place! They offer both goat and beef birria, and the flavor is absolutely incredible. I've only been eating birria for about five years, but in that time I've made it a mission to try it everywhere I travel. I've had birria from Las Vegas, California, Nebraska, Florida, and Texas, and I can honestly say Birria Bite is hands down the best I've had. I always order the Quesabirria Combo, and it never disappoints. The consommé is rich, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned--good enough to sip on by itself. And even though it's outside my normal diet, I can't leave without getting the Piña pineapple drink. It's sweet, refreshing, and absolutely fire. The hospitality is always A1, the staff makes you feel welcome every visit, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and portions you receive. This is one of those hidden gems you'll keep coming back to. If you haven't been yet, you're missing out. Don't meet me there... beat me there... or be square!
