Delicious tacos de canasta, we ordered the papa (potato), frijoles (beans), chicharrón (pork rinds) and the pollo (chicken). They were all delicious, they also give you shredded cabbage, pickled carrots and radishes, the tacos were so hot and made to perfection, had we not ate them so quickly, I would have had photos also. We have definitely found our go to spot for tacos de canasta. What are tacos de canasta you might ask, they are: Also called "basket tacos," they are known for their soft, steamy texture. They are typically filled with ingredients like refried beans, potatoes, and chicharrón (pork rinds), and are then folded, packed into a basket, and steamed. Try them if you haven't, El Birotazo also sells Tortas, Tacos Durados (Essentially fried tacos), they sell barbacoa (beef) and tostadas. Although I wish they also sold side dishes like rice and beans, which they don't, then they would be perfect for an entire meal.

Tacos de barbacoa/birria.  Deliciosos y de buen tamaño, bien servidos.

Segunda vez que venimos a comer aquí- (no vivo en Las Vegas) el servicio es excelente y la comida sabrosa. Las tortas ahogadas son deliciosas. Cualquier tapatío opinara igual! También tienen torta de pierna; tacos dorados de papá o frijoles, tacos de barbacoa, de canasta, y tostadas. Igual encuentran Jericallas! El Birotazo se ha convertido en uno de los lugares favoritos a visitar y disfrutar cuando visito Las Vegas.

Really good Food!

Came here looking for some torta Ahogadas, this place sure has them. I server quickly attended me and got my order. I ordered a torta Ahogada and 3 tacos de canasa. I am a little disappointed in the size of the torta. It was way too small for the price in my opinion but it doesn't take away that it was delicious. The tacos were great. I got a chicken, potato and chicharron taco. The chicharron was my favorite of the 3.

First things first, set your alarms for 7/8AM Saturday or Sunday, when you're planning on coming cause they open at 9am and they get PACKED! My visit was on a Saturday. My bf and I showed up at 8:50. There was at least 3 other parties waiting. We sat down and ordered 2 jarritos, we looked over the menu and decided on birriaqueso tacos. They're fried birria tacos with cheese. The messiest and most satisfying tacos that are trending. The waiter warned us that they'd take 25 minutes to make cause they we fried. We were perfectly fine waiting and they brought us the accompaniments, onions in hot sauce, salsa, limes, usual. As we waited, more and more people were showing up one after another, by 9:30 the place was full&for good reason. I got to admit, I've been here 2 times prior to this without a review and YUCK. I just did not like what I ordered, which were bean and potato tacos canasta. They were soggy and not it. BUUUUT tacos birriaqueso are some of the best tacos I've ever had. They were crunchy, they were soft inside. Writing this is making my mouth water. Seriously, you have to try them. Get the consommé on the side and dip those mothers. Ask for extra chiles asada and order 3. You're welcome.

Tacos de barbacoa dorados

Tacos are okay. Not many restaurants sell "tacos de canasta" so finding one that does is difficult. Find one that makes them good is unheard of. They would definately improve if their was a wider selection of salsas and if they were better seasoned. The tacos de barbacoa were perfectly fried but again they could use a wider assortment of salsas to improve the flavor. The service was good. Waiter was very attentative to our needs and answered all my questions with sufficiant information for my piece of mind

Bomb food. You can't go wrong going here. The food came out quick and everything was hot and made to order. Definitely going back every time in Vegas.

Average Mexican food…read more My friends and I got hungry when walking down Fremont Street so we stopped by Tacos & Miches for a quick bite. It is like any typical taqueria, nothing really extraordinary. I ordered asada tacos and was a bit unimpressed. There was a lot of meat but it was very dry and flavorless. I appreciated how juicy the limes were and the salsa verde was nice, but it was all very underwhelming. It was about $13 for the three tacos, so I expected them to be a bit better than what they were. Despite being a little busy, the food came out pretty quick. This spot is quite dingy. There is a lot of open seating but it is dirty and unkempt. When we were eating there, there was a homeless man seated inside screaming, ripping up newspapers and throwing them around, and playing with a lighter. Although there is an understanding that this is not a fine dining establishment, I think it is a bare minimum standard to host an environment where guests feel safe. It is very loud in there and very casual. It is accommodating for both small and large parties without prior reservation. Maybe the other menu items are better, but if you are looking for tacos, this would not be the best option.

Hands down one of my favorite and most affordable taco spots!…read more It's located next to a busy plaza so parking can be quite difficult They're open daily 10am-2pm. Definitely recommend going when they first open because otherwise it doesn't matter the time or day of the week, the lines are extremely long! Love how spacious the restaurant and how organized it is! Once inside the restaurant, there are several lines and you just line up according to which meat and item you want. The longest lines are definitely the asada and adobada (pork)! Once you reach the front of the line, you just tell the staff which and how many of the item you want, as well as any customizations to it. After you get your order, you just head to the cashier line and paying is so easy and convenient! Pricing is reasonable. - Tacos, tostadas, taco aztecas - $4.12 - Sopes, quesadillas, vampiras, & mulas - $7.54. - fries with meat - $22.18+ - soft drinks - $3.31 Arrived at 11am on Sunday and it was already super crowded. Stood in the asada line for at least half an hour but the wait was so worth it! Got 3 Asada Tacos and the tortilla was so soft, hot, and fresh. It was stuffed with plenty of tender beef! The beef was packed with flavor and marinated so well! The pico de gallo was so delicious, as well as the salsa and guac. The Horchata was ok and nothing special since it wasn't made from scratch like the phenomenal tacos! Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and my food. Definitely would recommend and return!

We spoke for a bit and he had a nice table set up for us right at opening. We enjoyed their brunch service for 6. It was dish after dish of foods that were wonderful and we finished it off with churros and chocolate mousse. Very good food presented very professionally. That and a few drinks made for a great Saturday the 25th. If I were to make any criticism it was the music was way too loud. Blade twice went to turn it down but somebody else in the staff kept turning it up to what even seemed to be Blades frustration. Made it a little difficult to have a comfortable conversation. Maybe at night when the atmosphere is not nice dining and more bar club the music should be that loud. Regardless we had a wonderful meal and a nice experience even if we had to speak loudly to each other. Blade the server was a huge part of the overall experience.

When they called my name, I went to the counter and notice that they got my order wrong...they gave me a pollo asado taco, instead of a pollo asado burrito with cheese. I swear I had told the lady that took my order that I wanted a pollo asado burrito, but perhaps I was wrong, or perhaps she was mistaken with what I ordered. Either way, I am not one to make a fuss, as restaurant workers already work hard (especially the workers at this place), so their ears didn't need a brat like me to give them an earful about getting my order wrong during peak lunch hours. Anyways, I pointed out the mistake, and mentioned if I can order a pollo asado burrito. An older gentleman (who appeared to be the owner/manager/someone important) working behind the counter said don't worry about it...he'll make the burrito and call my name when it's ready. I thanked them profusely, went back to my seat and didn't even finish my al pastor taco, because they had called my name in less than a minute. WOW! That's customer service right there! I wouldn't even put The Taco Stand on the top of my list of best mexican food in Vegas, even though their food is pretty damn good, but with customer service like this, they've made the jump on my list, and I'll be returning to eat there more often!
