This taco truck stands out from the crowd with its sensational tacos that are a true celebration of Mexican flavors. The stand-out service team, led by a genuinely engaging cashier, is as impressive as the food. It’s not just a meal, it’s an experience you’ll want to repeat.

Best Carne asada and lengua tacos in Las Vegas or Henderson. Tacos are huge two tortillas with melted cheese, beans,carme guacamole, and pico de gallo. This food truck is extremely clean, and the owner is an amazing gentleman.His entire team is very friendly .Don't forget to bring cash with you..

Do NOT sleep on this taco truck!! I’ve always seen them around town but never caught my attention enough to stop by and get tacos. My job hired them for celebratory tacos and let me tell you!!! These tacos were 🔥🔥🔥!! I got carne asada with everything on them and there are 2 tortillas with melted cheese and when you bite into it they have a crunch but still soft. They were loaded with food. Amazing! 👏 some of the best tacos out there.

This Taco Truck has THE best tacos. Where ever they get their produce and meat from is top notch! I've been coming for years now. They remember their patrons and will give out samples of tacos. Great crew in there!

First and last time going to this taco truck! First of all the young female cashier does not greet you and only stares at you! Also all the people inside that taco truck are not friendly, they don’t smile and they make us customers feel unvalued and not welcome! Second of all my carnitas burrito was full of fat and small bones, food here is too greasy!Disgusting!

I have been going to this place for 5 years. Ofcourse because of inflation food prices go up. Its happening everywhere but to buy these tacos, its definetly worth it. The Tacos come with 2 tortillas, a fried crunchy one and a soft one on the outside, the carne asada meat is super good. It comes with beans, cheese and guacamole which gives it a unique delish taste. Though the workers may seem mad or too serious at first they are actually nice workers are very focused on giving excellent quality food. We are moving out of town soon but if we ever are in town in again we will def visit this spot. Worth

Been looking for a spot like this since we move here but no luck till now! This taco truck is the best! It's like 30 minutes away from me but it's worth the drive! Remind me back home in San Jose.

I paid $5.75 for a taco more than I would pay for a taco comparing to some well known taqueros like el Gordo , Aguas Frias , and other local street tacos. I rate this place according the taste was good ; however, it lacks meat the taco has more of the other ingridients than actual meat, all the tacos I bought lacks meat, I would never go back for this price I feel that I over pay for a taco experience. 🌮

Have a food truck event tomorrow and they didn't call me to tell me they can't make it. I followed up myself only to find out they are no longer available. Now I don't have a taco truck for my event. Their food is good but now I know they can't be trusted for events.

If you want a SEVERELY overpriced taco, this is your place. They're good yes. But nothing special and definitely not worth the price

Amazing Tacos, 10/10 Worth trying and try to get there early when they open for the best tasting experience! They'll have more ingredients available, towards the end of the night they usually are out of everything bc of how good their food is. I'm from the east side so where its located isn't a con if youre not a wuss.

These are the best tacos in Las Vegas. My favorite is the carnitas , but the carne asada is really good too!

I'm not saying this lightly.... Best taco I've ever had in Las Vegas (: Also top 3 taco I have ever had world wide! This truck is in a very Skech part of Las Vegas... but totally worth the trip. If you aren't familiar with East Las Vegas (Sloan & Sahara). Yeah pretty much right at Frenchman mountain. Unfortunately the truck was sold out of every taco except carne asada. I really wanted the grilled chicken but my friends and I got there 1 hour before they closed (closes at midnight). The taco itself had 2 tortillas, one of them was toasted with some char on it .... and cheese was holding it together (: The guac was fresh with the pico. The asada was juicy and the cheese was gooey. It's hard to explain the party that was going on between my teeth at the moment of consumption. They were also sold out of some of the drinks like coke but there is a liquor store in the complex they park the truck so you can easily get something to drink there. At first I was wondering why they were so expensive but the tacos are bigger size than most of the other places I have ate at. They are called super tacos for a reason....

I showed up to the spot at 11. Nobody was here I tried calling 2x prior to showing up but no answer. My pregnant wife wanted tacos this place looked good ( due to the reviews) but they don't answer the phone and they don't even work the hours that they put. I only put 1 star because I have to put a star if not I would put 0.

I had been wanting to try this little taco truck since I moved to this side of town. We stopped by right after opening (5pm) and there were already people there waiting. I ordered 3 carne asada tacos and one pork taco with everything on it. My girlfriend got a carne asada burrito and a carne asada taco with everything on it. While waiting, we got the salsa together which was nicely placed on the clean counter with to go cups as well as sour cream. Very cool little set up, they came out of clean squeeze bottles. I liked that. We waited only about ten minutes for the food and ate the food as soon as we got home. (Maybe 5 minutes later) Oh my gosh. The tacos were insanely good. The tortillas really made the taco too. There were two of them and the bottom one had a crunch to it. I can't even describe it good enough for you to understand! The flavors were amazing. My favorite taco was the pork. The service was great. There was a line of four people in the truck taking orders, preparing the food and playing/bagging and giving out the food. They were all in sync with each other, it was cool to watch. Go try this place, you will not be let down!!! They do only accept cash so don't forget to stop before you get there.

My husband and I cannot stop raving about this place. We're always taking our friends here, every chance we get! These tacos are gigantic and well-worth the price! After only two tacos each we are pretty full. The carnitas are my favorite but the chicken tacos are a close second! The tacos come with guacamole, beans, and salsa. What makes them addicting is the crispy inner tortilla that gives it such a satisfying crunch. This is a family-owned taco truck with the best tacos in town. I'd give it 10 stars if I could!! They take cash only and they are typically here after 5 pm Thursday-Sunday. Seriously, a Vegas MUST-try.

Tacos de asada, more like tacos de cardboard.. they didn't even have toppings available. Oh and don't get me started on the rice water " horchata " . Honestly believe circle k has better horchata ( facts ) Definitely would NOT recommend -0 / 10

The tacos were really gooood like super good. the only problem I had was that they only take cash but there an ATM near by.

Yelp
what a joke, if you wanna pay 14 dollars for a burrito be my guest, for the price you pay you're given little to no meat in the burrito and mainly a bunch of beans, the tacos are good but again, if you wanna be paying 6 dollars a taco, there's plenty of other places that will actually be generous with the servings and the quality of the meat you'll have else where will be miles ahead of this place Used to be great, but, the owners got greedy and started charging more for less, ridiculous, won't everrrr be coming back again

This place is good and everything but the family is rude as shit and the owner thinks he's all high and mighty also always call to see when they will be there and it's always they hang up or reply saying oh we are not working today but have no professional ethic.

This is for the food truck on Sloan and Sahara on the east side. The one open Thursday - Sunday from 5-11pm. The one that has like three employees. The one that has THE BEST TACOS EVER. I've gone through taco phases. I used to like street taco combos that came with with three tacos and some rice and beans tortilla chips from places like Pepe's. Then I graduated to tacos el tizon where they melted cheese onto the tortilla as a taco base. Then I graduated to Tacos El Gordo street tacos that had adobada and tripas. Then I graduated to Los Tacos where a $4 filled to the max with everything taco was totally worth it. This taco truck is like a mix of all of them. They serve tacos, burritos, and quesadillas. They have perfected the taco in my opinion. They take two medium sized tortillas an melt cheese between them. The bottom tortilla touching the grill makes them crip and crunch. They then fill it with the meat, onions, cilantro, beans, and salsa. Wrapped in some foil and it's the taco PERFECTED! The textures are just awesome. I suggest the carnitas- super flavorful OR the lengua or tongue tacos. Eat them there while the tortilla is crisp! Then you can add extra salsa and sour cream. I've been here a handful of times and they get busy. Ive never waited long, but I totally would. I heard the owner used to work at Los Tacos and I'm a Los Tacos of Tacos El Gordo kind of guy so I love this place. Tax is included also.

They have one of the best burrito and tacos you can get in town when they get your order right. I ordered Super Burrito no beans and no pico, I only wanted the sour cream, cheese and the avocado. Only once they got my ordered right and I had to keep repeating myself at that point. I guess, I am questioning the part where how hard can it be to understand that I want everything else in it except beans and pico.

This truck is an east side classic. Hands down the best taco truck in the whole Las Vegas valley. The tacos are basically mini burritos bursting with flavor and dripping with quality. They're best right off the truck, the perfect ratio of meat, crunch and size. You won't find anything remotely close to these taco's anywhere else. The only downside are the hours of operation, the truck is only open on certain days. Though I do suppose that makes it even more of a treat when you do get your hands on them because YES they are that good!

WTF! $3.75/ per taco? It's good but not that good. I will make this straight and to the point. This taco truck/trailer is deep into the East side, on Sahara in a small parking lot that might get a tad tight if more than a half dozen cars try to come at the same time. I made my approach to the truck to read the menu of the most expensive street tacos i have ever seen $3.75 for Carne Asada....madness. I ordered two tacos, and they came out pretty quick. They lack much in the condiments area with only the choice or a red/green sauce and the standard plastic tubs to serve that. The tacos are larger than your standard street tacos, and they were good yes, but certainly not worth the money in my opinion. I came, and i ate, but there are too many options for street tacos to come back. I need value, when eating curbside with no real service or wow factor.

My family and I used to love this place! The tacos were huge and they had so much variety, including vegetarian tacos. We went back recently and their menu is so much more limited, no more vegetarian tacos and less meat options. Not only that, but their prices went up. According to my husband, the tacos were still good but not worth the price.

This is my favorite Taco truck hands down. They're a family run taco truck & are very nice people. The food is always fresh made. I usually get the Pork Burrito with extra Pork. And I get the Verde Salsa & extra sour cream. The Verde Salsa isn't too hot for us gringos. And the other Red Salsa is a little Picante but so good when my stomach can tolerate it. I also get the street tacos in steak & pork. They are usually there on Thursday - Sunday from 5 pm till whenever they run out of food. They're fast & delicious!! Come & get it.

Definitely my favorite tacos in Las Vegas! We drive from Henderson just to eat ! I wish they would have other locations but in the meantime I'll drive across Las Vegas to enjoy their food!

I gotta give it up to this place. Some of the best tacos in all of Las Vegas. I've recommended this place to family and friends and all come away satisfied! They're not shy about stuffing their tacos or burritos with meat and all of the fixings like other places. They're homemade guacamole and hot sauces are on point! You definitely get your money's worth and leave with a full belly! Definitely recommend this place

Let me just say this is one of my favorite taco places in the whole city and not just because they're literally down the street for me but they're super awesome. Yes I will be mad they are kind of pricey than what you're used to but I'm honestly believe that there are worth it.

This taco truck is right next to our house and we are so lucky. Honestly best tacos in Vegas. The staff is always friendly, and we never had a bad experience. Whenever we have visitors from other states we always take them here and they all fall in love. The tacos are amazing!!

Best tacos in Las Vegas hands down. It's pricey, but well worth it. The quality of the food is top notch. My family can't get enough of the food. The salsas are also on fire, so good.

Let me start by saying that the tacos were good, but what baffles me the most is that they cannot get one damn order right. I ordered 5 lengua and 1 asada and it came out to be 4 asada and 2 lengua like wtf obviously since its crowded your not going to check, but obviously its necessary. I live near the food truck and I've been going there for about 2 years and its a real pain that they don't get their oders right especially when they charge extra for the lengua. This is my 2nd time they get my order wrong, and it will be the last time since they don't manage their orders so my advice to those who come here, Check your orders b4 u leave. I don't hold anything against those who work there, its just frustrating that u get home and u don't get what u ordered correctly. Thank you

Nothing not to love about this place. If you are a fan of Los Tacos then this is the place for you at nearly half the price. The meat was moist and flavorful, the toppings were fresh. The tacos are priced appropriately for their size, these are not the tiny little street tacos you would typically expect. I love this place and am thrilled that they are right around the corner from me.

By far the best taco truck in Las Vegas. Before ever coming to the intersection of Sahara & Sloan I had these tacos on two occasions thanks to them also catering. #TacoTrucksOnEveryCorner

What can I say tacos are good, just really bad service they should be more polite knowing that we are the business. Tacos are very good but these people just need to be polite and at least smile.

The food is really delicious ! I am vegetarian and I get the vegetarian tacos , the only reason I am giving it a 4 stars is because I have had a couple of bad experiences with my food. The first time there was a small piece of meet in my taco I did not eat because I luckily checked, but it discouraged me from keeping coming back as much as I used too. And I will encouraged you are eating the vegetarian tacos make sure you check your MEAL for any meat. Overall the food is great ,they are really friendly and helpful!

Love this place!!! We go every single week! The tacos de carnitas are absolutely the best! Just the right amount of avocado, queso and frijoles se la olla. We recommend to all our friends on this side of town. Had the taco truck for our son's graduation, will have it again at our next family event! Simply the very best carnitas! I am in WW and can have these items on my diet!

Great tacos! I would recommend to anyone. They are huge tacos and they come with big amount of meat, guacamole, pico, and cheese! They are delicious! Only reason why I didn't give them 5 stars is because a guy( apparently friends with the owners) parked his truck right in front of the food truck and played his music so very loud we had to leave ! I mean really, scaring customers away lol, people passing by we also very disturbed. So... hopefully next time that friend is not there or at least playing his music so so sooo loud, did I mention it was super loud? Well, I will make a u turn if he is. Anyway, food flavor is a 10! Service was meh! But not bad so overall 4/5

This is my favorite taco place. I think this place is better than tacos El Gordo. The bad thing is that it's a food truck not a restaurant. However; it's well worth the wait and eating outside or in your car. They have a few chairs where you can sit, but its always busy. I like it so much that i don't mind eating standing. I'm giving 5 stars because the food it's just great. Also, because it's hard to find clean, fresh and great food. I live in SW and I dont mind the drive just to get my taco fix.

I can't even explain how much I love this place and how good the tacos are. Hands down some of the best tacos I've had in my life (and I've had A LOT of tacos). The flavors are most authentic and I believe they have a vegetarian option for those interested (although I've never had one because the carne asada and chicken tacos are amazing). The best thing is that this is near my home and I can visit if I ever have taco cravings (but only Thursday through Sunday of course). Would definitely recommend for late night taco runs with family and friends!

I just can't get enough of you. Simply perfection! I'm so lucky to be close by but even if I weren't I'd go the distance. I just love you, miles won't keep me from you for long. Lol yes I am this in love with these tacos. It's hard to like any others once you've had these. Everyone loves them, there's always a line. One I'd surely wait on in the highest heels, on the hottest day even for just one & all there's left to say is YUM .

Greatest tacos here in Vegas, for an amzing price. No other taco place can compare with these!
