    Tacos El Gordo catered our wedding in Virginia City last weekend and we could not be more pleased with the communication, service, and quality of food that was provided to our guests. Everything went smoothly thanks to Jazmin and her crew, and they went above and beyond to ensure that we and our guests were satisfied. I couldn't recommend them more!! Thank you Jazmin and staff for making our wedding a huge success and a wonderful experience

    Catered at my work today and got a Mixed Pork Burrito. Got to say, probably one of the best burritos I've had. So good that I got another to bring to a friend of mine. I will be looking for this truck. I was told they hang out around Telegraph Ave by a recycling company. High quality and they are quick.

    Lunch time was upon me and as I walked out of my building I was greeted by sight of a new food truck. I originally ordered two pollo and two asada tacos. When I saw there was no Yelp review posted, I went back and got a quesadilla. The good...The menu is simple...tacos, burrittos, tortas, and quesadillas. The food was reasonably priced. $1.50 per taco. $6 for the quesadilla. Both entrees were tasty and filling. Yes...I packed both away (guess I don't need dinner). I also liked the fresh pico de gallo which came with the quesadilla. The prep time was fast which is essential for a lunchtime food truck. The bad...Since I have to put a "bad" comment in to balance the review I'm going to have to get nitpicky. They do charge an extra $0.50 for the credit card transaction. They also did not have my soda preference...as I said...nitpicky. Bang for the buck this truck is definitely a great option!

These things are definitely two-meal burritos - which is the whole goal of ordering a massive burrito. The meat in all options was tender and flavorful. My dad is a huge mexican food fan and was asking about specific options. The owner came over and was speaking to him and offered us a free plate of tacos with his newest meat creation! How could we say no?! I really hope he adds this to the menu because it was the most tender, juicy, saucy, flavorful shredded beef I have ever had. 10/10 on the taco scale. My dad even said that it's the best he has ever had and he has travelled all over Mexico! My father in law is also vegan and they were careful to offer him options that matched his medical dietary restrictions. The place is cute with an adorable bar stacked with all the tequilas you could ask for and included an amazing mix of handcrafted cocktails. The habanero margarita is my favorite. This place will definitely do well and welcome to the Reno scene!

We were in a bit of a rush and were seated right away with fast and I amazing service. The lobby was decorated for Christmas already. I got a blue demon that was delicious and definitely didn't skimp on the alcohol and I ordered the carne asada flat steak plate. The steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly and it was easy to make some amazing makeshift tacos out of the fresh corn tortillas. Everything prepared was so tasty and fresh it is a no brainer that this is a regular spot for us. You gotta try it if you haven't!

Met with the owner Daniel who shared some of his experience with being a business owner in Sparks as well as the Mexican food market in the area. Service was quick for a to go order and it was hot!!! It was definitely table side ready when we got to our destination. This family owner business speaks loudly to the pride and cultural roots of Mexican food that you look for in the flavors, in the hospitality, and the time that it's taken to perfect recipes. -Barbacoa plate: 5/5 Ordered this to go which to no surprise was delicious in flavor. Wasn't too salty, or over seasoned. The braised beef was deliciously tender to the bite, as well as rich in sauce that wasn't too wet or thick. Pair with the rice and beans you have a delicious bite that's accompanied by the traditional tortilla. This meal provided for a savory bite that you can still taste after you're done eating. The rice and beans pairing it were very well done and rich in flavor and the cheese for the beans was perfect. The barbacoa had a taste that will make you appreciate the work and time that goes into braising the beef to give you that perfect bite of the strands that just melt in your mouth as you go for another bite. 5/5 I'll definitely have to stop in for a sit down meal as this experience was rich and just nice to have some home cooked tasting Mexican food in the heart of Sparks. Definitely reasonably priced for the level of food you're getting. Give Daniel and Macho Tequilas a chance to earn your business with their delicious food! Oh, and the nachos were also really well portioned, priced, and flavorful! But, this was more for the barbacoa. Overall 5/5!!!

They do have a large selection of Mexican drinks and snacks. I came here for the advertised $2 tacos that's posted on the window. The tacos are on the smaller size than most are used to, but don't let that fool you. They pack it with meat that falls out with every bite. I tried the asada, pastor, chorizo and the taco Guadalajara. As Guy Fieri would say "flavor town" in every bite, I was not disappointed. They also give you sauces in small containers which is much more sanitary than the ones that sit out with a ladle. I came in early on a Tuesday and sadly a lot of the tacos meats we wanted to try, they ran out. But Tues and Thursday is when they get shipments in so usually later on in the day they are able to offer all the meats. This also tells you they keep things freshly stocked often. I'm a fan and I'll be back.

I got 4 street tacos at $2.50 each they were $10 of the fastest and well prepared tacos I've found anywhere outside of Tijuana! I got buche, carnitas, asada, and al pastor. Each one was amazing, so juicy. I also had the piña agua fresca in a large and that was also yummy. Not too sweet. The couple things I'd recommend is; a better salsa bar. They give you squeeze bottles of green, dark red and light red salsas but I like picking my own along with limes and they didn't have pickled jalapeño, onions or carrots. They recently added outdoor seating with cement and tile tables/chairs but in the summer it's too hot. So I Highly recommend getting umbrellas or shade sails for people to enjoy it outside. Also some music, it was pretty dead inside at 3p on a Friday and they had the Latino news on. Overall, great experience and the staff were friendly but closed off behind the agua fresca machines and empty salsa bar.

I completely understand inflation. However, it went up and got way smaller. I went by today and the burrito was so small and had no avocado. I was there on Sunday and the burrito was small but today it was crazy small! I don't know if it has to do with who is making them. The gentlemen that work there tend to be very nice and have great aguas frescas. I just wish the quantity was still the same...
