Absolutely exceptional. I read about this place on Reddit as I was looking for good authentic tacos and this company was recommended. There are a few around town and we stopped at this one because it was most convenient for us after a hike in red rock canyon. We order tacos (in order of most deliciousness: asado, chicken, and El pastor competing for first place and carnitas last personally I wouldn’t order them) all without onion. We also tried one quesabirra which was fantastic but the tacos still win. We washed it all down with Jurritos lime and pineapple, pineapple hands down the best. Service is fine, they are warm and you can order in English but Spanish is better. Cash is king here. The atmosphere is basic, cantina style, which I think is perfect. Absolute must stop if in vegas.

Typical small taco shop that is one of the best tacos spots I've been to. When I say I want tacos, this is the type I want. Reminds me of when I was growing up. I ordered the 5 birria taco plate, and it comes with consome. Perfect flavor in the tacos and consome! Would be coming here again. Can't wait to try something different next time I'm here. I went here on a Sunday for lunch and there was plenty of parking on the lot. Also, not packed at all so it was super fast service!
