Tamale
Maribel T.

This place is straight basura (trash) what a disgrace to Mexican food. I keep trying to give them a chance and order something different but food is horrible each time. Service is horrible too staff is rude, site mentions they take Apple Pay yet according to staff they don't so I'm digging for change and the lady just shuts the window and walks away. This is what they call a "tamale"

Machaca Plate
Lauren C.

Coming in on a slow Sunday night was probably not the best timing, but the food was still okay. It fit the bill for a to go order to satisfy my Mexican craving. I had the Chicken Taco/Chicken Enchilada combination plate. The price was low for large portion. The chicken taco was tasty, but the meat was dry. I attribute this to coming in at a slow time. I'm sure everything is fresher during busier times. The enchilada was appropriately loaded with enchilada sauce. The rice and beans were good and there was enough cheese on everything to make me happy. My husband had the Machaca plate which came with even more food than my meal. He loved it. This dish came with several large tortillas and guacamole. I'm pretty sure we could have split this one meal and it would have been plenty of food. The restaurant was clean and the gentleman that took our orders was friendly. He prepared everything quickly, we barely had time to get our salsas from the salsa bar which is a good thing. You can't beat the price for portion sizes either.

Pretty sure this is mold

Tortilla has mold on it. How disgusting. What a waste of money again. Never going back.

Soda fountain has tropical flavored drinks

Open 24 7 and they have tacos Lengua? I like this place already! Food is good and so is the price! Ordered the special combo 2 Taco Lengua rice and beans drink included for $6.25 that's cheap! Portion wise plenty enough. Yum Factor- 3.7/5 its tender but Taco y Taco is better seasoned (shhh) but hey it's all good What's Cool - the tropical soda fountain drinks see pics below. Staff - friendly, even cook engaged in chit chat. They speak both English and Spanish. Open kitchen.. You can see it's CLEAN Dining area clean, modest furnishings has seating for 24 but is spacious Location - tucked in corner of strip mall where that gymnastics school is .. only noticed this place at night from their neon sign and the banner on Horizon Ridge. How is it compared to the other Mexican fast food 24 hour place down the street? Well.. first thing I noticed the clientele late night aren't a bunch of drunk fools. So much rather come here for sure. Disclaimer: This review was done on my phone on the fly. While eating no doubt. So don't go grammar police on me. .. and there you go... my first review using the new Yelp app feature for Android users.. About time!

I stopped there tonight for food. I never made it in my car broke down. Your employee Andrew was in the parking lot and helped me! How nice! I really appreciate his help and 10/13 a simple order of two tacos was bad!! Both tacos were broken in pieces! Awful service! Come on guys! Not that hard to get tacos right

Bacon where are you...?

2.99 breafast burrito especial os a joke!!! Plus egg under cook . Well at least was real eggs.. And the girl on the counter was nice... I think she was the only one there ... Better deal on other taco shops

#4 Two cheese enchiladas with rice & beans
Steven H.

I have driven passed Don Tortaco on Horizon Rdige several times. Being lunch time we decided to stop in and try it out. I figured it was like Roberto's but it turned out to be much better! Luckily, we arrived just before the lunch rush. The prices are very reasonable and we asked for suggestions from the friendly cashier. She recommended the carne asada nachos which we ordered, along with the #4- two cheese enchiladas with rice and beans. For around $15 it was a lot of food. The nachos were HUGE. Loaded to the top of the container with steak, two cheeses, sour cream and beans it was really good. Usually with nachos you run out of toppings before chips, but this was not the case at Don Tortaco, it was almost the opposite! The cheese enchiladas were good as well as the rice and beans, just not as great as the nachos. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of food here and very reasonable prices. I would definitely return again.

My absolute favorite thing on the menu was the sopa de fideo. This brought back many amazing memories of my mother's cooking. The view of the strip from the lower level was gorgeous. I suspect the nighttime view is even better. I can tell this is definitely a locals favorite. I was surprised they even had a few table top slot games near the bar. Staff was epicly friendly and kind. The food came out quickly. One of the members of our party had the Chile Colorado. They said it was not as spicey as it should be. I had a bite and the meat was a little harder than expected but flavoring was nice. Plus, I have never had it anywhere else. Overall a nice little lunch. But yes, the caddilac needed grand marnier, not so much ice and less oranges inside. Will be back!

I like to refer this place as "that big orange building on the hill". They take reservations; call the restaurant directly to make yours. It can get busy during peak hours, so if you can't find a parking space in the parking lot, you can park on the street along Carnegie and walk over, which is what we did. We made our reservation at around 7:30pm and arrived on time, but we had to wait an extra 5-10 minutes for a table to open up. We got a table that had a great nighttime view of The Strip and other parts of the city. For drinks, I ordered a Raspberry Margarita on the rocks and my LTP ordered the Golden Road Mango Cart beer, a drink known to be very popular in other restaurants and bars these days. It did take a long while for both drinks to come out, but we passed the time by enjoying complimentary endless chips and dip. The dips were salsa and beans, but the salsa was incredibly spicy, so I stuck with the beans. Our food also took a while to come out - I think we waited about 10 minutes. A bowl of soup is offered with every meal. We shared a quesadilla appetizer (4), which was excellent and included a mix of sour cream and guacamole dip before moving on to the entrees. My eye caught the Torta (aka the Mexican sandwich) on the back of their menu, and I got this with grilled chicken breast as my choice of protein and fries on the side. The Torta was HUGE. It was really good and packed with sour cream and guacamole inside, but at the same time it was so big that I had to take the rest of it home with me. My LTP had the carne tacos, which were also huge and also had to take home with him. Service was a little slow, but the food and drinks were excellent. I also really enjoyed the view from our table.

The flavor is on point and it's always satisfying. The only dish I wasn't too big on was the posole. It wasn't bad at all, but it didn't taste like traditional Mexican posole -- it leaned more toward a Tex-Mex flavor. Again, not bad, just not what I personally look for when I'm craving authentic posole. I also love that it's not overly popular to the point where you're waiting forever to be seated. It has a nice, relaxed vibe. That said, I really hope they get more clientele because they deserve it -- I'd love to see them expand and grow. Definitely a hidden gem!

She acknowledged every other table plenty of times, but never stopped by us again. It's unfortunate, but the owner sent us shots and the fedora man really tired to make up for it the trash service we received from our server. My dad is a regular here, but I think this is the last time I'll stop by.
