The best tacos!!!!!!!! Went for happy hour with my friends on a Wednesday. The restaurant has a happy hour special on 818 tequila margaritas for $8.18. I tried 2 of the margaritas and had the Build Your Own - Taco Supreme. The meal comes with so many toppings and the beef was so flavorful. The service was absolutely amazing. I was able to make a reservation online days in advance. The vibes and aesthetic were just so amazing.

Crunchy's

While staying at MGM went down to Diablo's. The menu is pretty small. Not a lot of options. I got the steak. Server said it's kinda small but comes with peppers and some onions. So I ordered that and the crunchy's app. The steak was small like she said and it came with 2 small peppers. The steak was not really seasoned at all. So kinda bland. The crunchy's app is their version of chips and salsa and guac. One of the salsas was pretty good. The other not so much. Strange orange goop. Over all the meal was $47. Not really worth it unfortunately.

Mocktail

Came here on a Thursday night which was so much fun. They have salsa and bachata lessons every Thursday by a great instructor. This a place to meet people and dance all night. The vibes are great! The outside is very pretty and they have an outside bar. The inside bar is first come first serve. The tables you would need to make a reservation. The food is pretty good and comes out really fast. The mocktails and drinks are amazing! They also have flights. We got the steak fajitas, crispy corn cakes, guac & chips. Everything was pretty delicious.

Chicken fajitas

I always come to the MGM but this is the first time I have been in here. We sat at the bar and had the best server Brian! We got margaritas and fajitas and were not disappointed. Everything was good. And the bonus was DJ 5_9 was playing music! It was definitely a vibe I want to go back to.

Drinks were great had the been there done that and the dusk to dawn and added tajin to it...so good. Not a fan of the salsa tasted like puréed tomatoes nothing else. But the chips were different but good. Whole fried tortilla shells Service was great. Waitress was very attentive and personable. We sat outside beautiful patio area.

Mixed tacos

Much better than expected based on reviews. Service was great. Sat outside in a nice evening before a show. Outdoors was lovely. Food was delicious.

Visited for their Cinco de Mayo specials the weekend prior to May 5th. Had an evening reservation. The front entry host stand was a little crowded and challenging to navigate who to speak with to enter the restaurant however since I was meeting friends who already had a table I just walked around the host stand and entered the restaurant. The restaurant is very bright, open, and spacious with several indoor and outdoor seating options. We were seated outside on the back patio. The table service was prompt and the staff was very attentive and lively to ensure we were enjoying our time at the restaurant. We ordered various appetizers to share and they were good especially the cheese bread. The noise level is moderate even with live music and a DJ playing inside we were still able to hear each other when speaking. I did not have any bar drinks or cocktails during this visit. Free parking Restaurant is located on the casino level (the first restaurant you will see on this level when entering near casino) $$

Restaurant Interior is very bright and gives a good vibe!

I had a great dining experience! The service and food were superior. The manager even took a dish off the bill because it took too long to come from the kitchen. I didn't even have to say a word and that has never happened before. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and dine here again. It is a bit of a long walk from the theater area for people with mobility issues which is a shame but other than that, I really enjoyed it and hopefully next time I can spend more time and relax and enjoy the atmosphere. I was dining here pre-theater and I couldn't get a reservation at the Asian restaurant - where I actually wanted to dine. I was lucky to get one here and they really worked with me to make sure I got out of there in time to make my show at the in-house theater.

Went for dinner with a few friends around Cinco de Mayo. When we got there, we learned that they very recently (as in a few days before) changed the menu to be more tapas style for more of a lounge type of feel. I was so disappointed. I've been here a few times before and was looking forward to tacos and nachos! The food was pretty good -- we tried most of the menu items between the five of us. The drinks were great. We were seated in the outdoor area on some couches around a coffee table. The bar and regular seating area were still available and there didn't seem to be much traffic (which honestly should have been a sign because anytime I've been before, it's been busy.) Not what I expected and I really think changing up the menu was not the best idea!

Heyyy 10/10 if I…read morecould RATE higher!!! Found them while passing by, staying at the hotel near by, but looked on Groupon and seen they had a voucher for $13.50, you get $30 worth of food! We tipped of course and the FOOD/SERVICE: QUALITY!!!!! Original Mexican taste!! Original Mexican restaurant!! Parking lot packed, food is goooood!!! The wait time was literally 10-15 mins!! Amazing customer service! Sweet workers!! I'd come back!

I'd put sub ZERO if I could…read more Our first time at your restaurant today. We saw people give positive remarks about your food, and so as lovers of Mexican food and coming from the N.E. we were excited to try a new Mexican place! I'm not sure how you were given such good reviews because nothing was great about it. So disappointing on all fronts. The service was horrible - she didn't smile, she basically came up to the table and asked us what we wanted. Then when we said it was our first time and we needed some time to look, she walked off. No personality whatever throughout. The margharitas were so bland, full of juice and LUKE WARM - for 20.00 - that we ordered an extra shot - which she forgot until she stopped by 15 minutes AFTER our meal already came. The food was terrifically bland as heck. Nothing was seasoned well at all. We asked for the manager, and one said he was one of them. He was basically useless. He didn't apologize. He came back to our table and wanted to see if we wanted something else, this is after waiting forever for our first food. He didn't offer to take off anything, not that would allow - but it's called great customer service, which this place sorely also lacked. Then, clueless, asked if we wanted to wrap up our food that we did NOT like. The fajita was dry and hard - chx, steak, shrimp and over the top fried cod. No flavor in either rice or beans. Enchalada with chicken was so bland and boring. The sauce on top seemed like a tomato sauce from a can. Service/food/drinks were all bad. If that's the standard the people seemed to like around here, that's telling. Best part of the place, cold water. Amen to that.

I don't make it out to Alexandria too often, but since it was a halfway point between a friend and…read moreme, it worked out perfectly. My friend chose Don Taco because it's one of his favorite spots, and he kept raving about how great the tacos were. And because really, you can't go wrong with chips, salsa, and drinks for a quick happy hour. The salsa which is not pictured had a great smoky kick, the tacos were very flavorful, fresh and hot. The host and waitress were very sweet, kind and attentive. The atmosphere was pretty cool, nothing to complain about. A lot of space, we sat upstairs which I enjoyed. Unfortunately, this place isn't handicap accessible so if you're unable to walk 2 flights of stairs this wouldn't be the a great option. Thank you Don Taco Staff

I visited after my yoga party, and one thing I really appreciated was that they were able to…read moreaccommodate our large group at the last minute. We had the entire upstairs area to ourselves, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The restaurant was clean, and I loved the mini fans placed throughout the space--perfect if you're feeling a little too warm or have enjoyed a few drinks! As for the service, it was a bit hit-or-miss. The young lady who took our orders was pleasant, but it took quite a while for drinks to come out. There were also several missing items from people's orders, which caused some frustration since those items had been ordered well in advance. Now, onto the food--the real star of the experience! Everyone in our group enjoyed their meals and had great things to say. I ordered a salmon taco, which I actually saved and ate the next day for lunch, and it was still delicious. The queso, however, wasn't a favorite among our group. On the other hand, the chips and salsa were a hit. The mocktails were excellent, and everyone seemed to enjoy their cocktails as well. Despite a few service hiccups, the food, drinks, and atmosphere made for a great experience. I would definitely visit again.
