    What a neat folkloric place! This is right off North Lamb Boulevard in a strip mall that's been around for quite sometime and I can guarantee you that El Zarape will bring business for the rest of the folks around. From the outside it might not look like much but trust that what matters is the inside. Once we walked in I knew this was going to be a promising experience and it was. The only thing that i'd like to remind the staff is that not everyone is familiar with the products so elaborating on the description of a meal will be helpful to many. My friend ordered separately a quesabirria but did not understand that there are two styles one of corn tortilla and the other of flour tortilla (tho simple understanding he could've been explained thoroughly). I myself did get the corn tortilla ones just to try out the flavor and let me tell you! This is what Birria is all about! The flavor this place offers is so outstanding from other birria places and the consome (dipping-broth) is so full of deliciousness! Definitely will come back with more friends. The aesthetic of the place is also great with many frames of hand-made loteria drawings and colorful aspects. This guys are on top of their game. Stop by and visit sometime soon!

    Checking this place out for lunch ! It looks promising

    New location near Starbucks on Charleston near Lamb. Since they just opened, it's super clean and the dining area is colorful with nice artwork. The employees were very nice and the food is made to order so it takes a little time, but that's worth the wait. I've tried them twice already and will probably be a regular. They have so much for me to try... ESPECIALLY THE HOT CHEETOS item.

    Family ended up here for Father's Day. The food was tasty with large portions. The staff was amazing. They were all incredibly kind and had uplifting rapport with one another. I believe they play Mariachi on Sundays (the band they hired was extremely talented). We definitely will be back again. |~~Español~~| Mi familia y yo visitamos a este restaurante para el Día del Padre. La comida es sabrosa y sirven cantidades de muy buen tamaño. Los empleados son increíblemente amables. Nos trataron muy bien y crearon un ambiente positivo. Creó que tienen mariachi cada Domingo. Definitivamente regresáremos.

    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!

    My first impression was Blade who later became our server. He was very helpful providing us a menu…read morewhile he was setting up before opening. 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.

I had shrimp al mojo and it was delicious! The shrimp was covered in a garlic sauce and they expertly recommended I add rice with it. The rice paired perfectly with the dish. I also tried a chicken quesadilla and it too was scrumptious. The old fashioned was potent and great as well.

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!
