    Taco spot under an apartment complex with decent parking. It was my first time trying it as I was craving street tacos and yes they are street tacos, therefore, I don't see a reason for 1 taco to cost over $4. Ordered a couple different ones: chicken which was dry and needed sauce and there was no flavor, fish which the fish tasted nice and was lightly breaded, however, there was just a tiny amount of sauce on the top, pastor which also was dry and felt like the pineapples were counted before putting it on, lastly, mushroom which was the only one that was flavorful and had a decent amount. I also requested extra sauce, onions, cilantro and lime on the side which was not there. The staff looked like they were over it and weren't all that welcoming. And the ordered was placed online for pickup but was not ready when I got there. It was Friday afternoon so I get there was kind of a lunch rush but that should be expected I feel. Overall was not impressed by the food or the lack of service.

    We were so hungry after a concert and happened to see this spot on our way back home. Thank goodness we stopped because the tacos here really hit the spot after a few drinks. My friends ordered the Carne Asada Fries and I got the Al Pastor Tacos. The restaurant is surprisingly big inside with a lot of tables. Hardly waited at all for food as the service was really fast.

    Can't believe I have done a review for this spot yet! I've been a handful of times. Every time we visit Vegas it's our first stop. Food is always fresh and delicious. They also have a full salad bar with a handful of options from mild to habanero. The decor makes you feel as if you're eating in Mexico. Carne Asada is top notch. Pictured is the shrimp and pastor taco. The asada taco didn't make the photo lol

    If you are craving cheap Mexican food, this is the place. Had an Al Pastor burrito with rice and beans on the side. It was good. I'd still give the nod to Sergs but since the had an actual salsa bar, it's a winnah! I heard it's best to go on off hours cause it gets packed. We had no problem as we went just before 11am. The Pico de gallo was good,as were the rest of the salsas. Surprisingly the habanero wasn't very burner.

    We have been going to Taco Stand a lot recently. The original location was founded in San Diego in 2013 by two guys from Tijuana. There are locations in Southern California, Florida, and Texas, We like how easy it is to get good food fast here. Parking at this location is ample. There's usually not a line when we go and the staff is always friendly. You order at the counter and then seat yourself. Sometimes it takes a little while to get your food, but that's fine because it's made fresh. My favorite items are the carne asada tacos, as well as the camaron (shrimp) tacos and elote. They also offer burritos, quesadillas, carne asada fries, and churros. There is a self-serve salsa bar that offers varying spice levels, from mild to extra spicy. The restaurant isn't fancy and I like that, too. This is just a great place to get some tasty tacos.

    Tacos de asada and taco de nopales, on handmade corn tortillas...yoooo, this place was legit!
    Cristina U.

    This place is legit! Bomb tacos on fresh tortillas de maiz, hecha à la mano! Asada had good flavor and a nice cut of mea, tender..the nopales were fresh and cooked just right, with a little crisp..do not miss out! Check this place out, it will not disappoint!

    Looking for a late night eat as everything in Chinatown was closing or closed! Stumbled upon this place closer to the freeway entrance and boi were we surprised. It was pretty busy for a Sunday late night & it definitely wasn't a loud environment. Walking into the place it was bright, employees were friendly, and the menu was bold with so many options! We ordered 1 fish taco with the works, 3 grilled chicken tacos with everything but guacamole, & a California burrito and nothing disappointed. Everything was fresh, seasoned perfectly, and the flavors were memorable! Service was also quick! They had a huge selection of glass bottled beers and drinks including Mexican Coke. The salsa stand was to die for so many choices and not one of them disappointed in the flavor department. Overall great experience and great place will recommend to others and we'll be back!

    Cannot say enough good things about this taco stand! The alpastor is the absolute best and has flavor!! Churros are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Tortillas are soft and wonderful. The staff is super friendly as well. They have great filtered water too which matters to the water lovers out there (which I am). Must go here!

    AL PASTOR TACO
    Mr. C.

    Came here late night, looking for a some solid tacos. This place had good reviews, walk in, I thought I was at Tacos El Gordo. "Stop son, we have Tacos El Gordo at home" ahhh spot. Anyway got some pastor tacos and asada tacos, took a nice bite, mid. They don't have the quality pastor you get at the good spots, flavor wasn't all there. The asada isn't even asada bro, it's like chunks of steak, not the real deal. The asada tacos weren't bad, they just don't use real quality asada. Overall a mid spot, wouldn't come back. Pastor Tacos: 7.1 Asada Tacos: 6.9

    Consistent!! Never had a bad taco or burrito from here. Always my first stop when I touch down in Vegas for a quick bite. The churros... it's like walking through the gates of heaven, cooked by Jesus himself. They are slap your momma good! I eat them before my tacos, all of them, don't ask me for any! If you haven't then you should.

    Our first encounter with The Taco Stand was in San Diego. It was a much smaller location compared to The Taco Stand in Las Vegas that is located at the bottom of Green Leaf Lotus condo complex. My eldest daughter and I stopped by for a quick lunch before exploring the city that never sleeps. Surrounded by friendly and good vibes all around. Big inside space with colorful seating. Tables had drink holders on the side which is a super idea so more space for more food on the table. Wall decor had beautiful art and vibrant colors. Soda fountain and condiments stations were available. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Ambiance was just wonderful. Authentic Mexican restaurant right at the heart of Las Vegas. We dined-in and ordered 2 mushroom tacos, 1 shrimp taco, 1 chicken asado taco, 1 Al pastor taco, and 2 churros. Everything from taco meats and seafood, veggies, tortillas, and churros were so fresh, flavorful, and yummy. Churros were thick and condense milk made it quite a supreme dessert. They were made to order. Quality was on point! Our lunch experience was amazing. We enjoyed it so much we wanted to come back before leaving Las Vegas. However, we didn't make it back. It's on our list to return for more taco greatness and more. Well done Taco Stand! Thank you!!

    Spicy Shrimp Tacos
    Kris K.

    Coming from Southern California, where there are plenty of great taco shops, I can say Taco Stand is solid. The carne asada is well-seasoned and authentic, the al pastor is great, and the carne asada fries are delicious. The spicy shrimp taco was excellent too. The manager was super friendly and made sure we were enjoying our food. I love it here. The carne asada they use as a better quality mean than some of their competitors. I always come here when I'm in the mood for straight tacos and I recommend visiting if you haven't already!

I had the mahi mahi tacos and they were too much for me, in part because they came with three sides, all delicious. My husband had the carne asada quesadilla and enough left over for lunch tomorrow. I tried the lime margarita, also excellent, and we couldn't leave without trying the churros for dessert. The ambience is lovely, with gorgeous decor, comfortable booths, and an excellent Hispanic music playlist. This is our new favorite Mexican restaurant.

I really like the interior decor which is like a very contemporary and upscale Mexican. They have a variety of table and booth seating and a large bar. Our server, Hunter, was very friendly and attentive. He always ended every interaction with "have fun!" I tried the "el corazon" sangria which was delicious! It had a wonderful, warm flavor with a light hint of cinnamon yet it was still cold and refreshing! A cool tip - each drink comes with a little card with a symbol on it and the drink ingredients. Save this card! At each table is a game board of sorts that offers various prizes as you match the cards on the game board sort of like bingo. We really enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa, and we tried the traditional guacamole with vegetables as well. The guacamole was wonderfully cool and creamy and flavorful. For my entree, I tried the chicken fajitas which is served on a steaming platter with various accompaniments. This was also very delicious, and the chicken was quite flavorful and juicy. A small side note - it was served with a cous cous of sort, but I think I would've preferred a simple Spanish rice. The chicken portion size also seemed a bit smaller than when we get fajitas at Chili's. I would recommend you get double meat if you want to share. We decided to try the chocolate flan and the fried ice cream sundae for dessert. I preferred the flavor of the flan and the unique textures of the flan which had the jiggly caramel flan part on top of a more cake like chocolate part below. I honestly think the fried ice cream was not too good. It did not taste freshly fried, and the coating was very dry and brittle and hard to eat. I prefer the places that serve the fried ice cream warm with a very bubbly crust that is both crunchy outside and a bit soft inside. This was not that. Overall, though, we really enjoyed the dining experience here! We will probably return and try their weekday "Fajitas and Ritas" special! I recommend Hola!

Perfect for sharing, delicate and it is a explosion of flavors in your mouth. Service is so outstanding, Mariah and Jesus were our servers. You get assigned two servers even being a party of two. Since entering the restaurant we were treated like VIP and everyone said Happy Anniversary to us. They had even read our special instructions of dietary restrictions (gluten and dairy free). At the end of our dining experience the Chef sent us a Dairy Free, Gluten free and Vegan dessert on the house to celebrate oour special day. It was such the perfect touch to end our dining experience. It was our first time here, we will definitely come back and reserve for a later time since the only thing we missed were the performers because they show up later at night.
