We found this place by accident and I'm so glad we did! This is by far the best menudo I've had outside of my mother's cooking, which is saying a lot. The flavor was incredible and tasted so authentic. The flan was WOW! Perfect texture and flavor. The aguas frescas (horchata and limonada) were also delicious, refreshing and not overly sweet like other places. On top of the amazing food, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. We will definitely be coming back! read more

Hole in the wall Mexican restaurant with delicious tacos. Just down the street from Casa del Sabor so if you're looking for more quiet vibes and better tacos, this is the spot. Lengua (5/5) Al pastor (5/5) - I normally don't get Al pastor but these were crispy and hit the spot! Birria taco platter (4/5) - tacos are just ok for me but the beans and rice are 5/5 Service is kind and prompt. Noticed folks grabbing catering pans and I may try that next time for a party! read more

I'd say this place is a step up from your normal Roberto's. It's a casual restaurant where you go to the counter and order your food, they give you a number, you go pick your seat and they bring your food to you when it's ready. The food was really tasty! I ordered the three enchiladas with rice and beans and my friends ordered the sopes and the chilaquiles. My one small critique is that I like a lot of sauce on my enchiladas and there wasn't much sauce. But the flavor was really good. Next time I come here I will try either the nachos or tacos! read more

El Zarape - This should be a dang crime how are you charging $4 for a dang fish stick taco - Mexican Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND RACIST. Ordered birria ramen, they use spaghetti noodles NOT RAMEN NOODLES. Asked for something different the lady at the counter yelled and said "YOU DONT LIKE MY COOKING" very unprofessional. Refused to exchange my item, then started talking loud in Spanish about me to her co workers. Her name was Sammie, this charge will definitely be disputed read more

Food was amazing, second best pozole I've ever had! No need to add spices or chili, flavor was perfect as served! The chilaquiles were amazing as well, perfect red salsa. The restaurant is very homey and welcoming, the waitresses were super nice! 10/10 recommend read more

Came here a few times because I couldn't decide if i liked it or not. I got carne asada and carnitas tacos. And a carne asada burrito. The carnitas was ok i was expecting more flavor. Same with the asada it was plain. The burrito was more beans and rice than anything but decent . I really did like the salsa though. They came in these cute packages not like most places that come in a small cup. Service was great the people running the place was nice. read more

A treasure in an unassuming plaza. Inside is a warm and inviting place with a great and knowledgeable staff. The menu has so many great options that you really can't go wrong with anything. The quesadilla is a great choice; the pastor very flavorful and well made. I appreciate how loaded the carne asada fries as well. The salsas come in small containers definitely need more than a couple per dish (they charge extra), which I'm not a fan of. read more

Food was good but everything felt off. The horchata was very watery when i asked the cashier for a lemonade instead they were happy to give it but unfortunately it was watery as well i would stay away from their drinks in general very over priced for them. I asked for everything without onion due to a allergy and somehow it was still put in the consume which I didn't notice until i got home. The general visit felt very cheap/stingy feeling in a sense when their prices are very market to other good places that will put some meat in the consume instead of just the soup! The ambiance was 2 star in my opinion. read more

Great customer service and yummy, quicker Mexican food. Good homemade sauces. My husband and I both would eat again

I would say this place is average and rather forgettable. I was hoping it was going to be a really authentic hidden gem experience, but for me they missed the mark on flavor and attention to detail. The queso Birria tacos were not crispy at all and were falling apart on contact. The consume was just ok with a slight flavor of cloves which I don't love. I've been to other places where the consume is so good you can't stop drinking it. But this wasn't doing it for me. The menudo was also forgettable, no "mmm's" coming from us at our table and more than half taken home. Was too expensive to not take it. Refried beans were not smooth, and didn't have great flavor either. The rice was really good, fluffy and went well with everything. Cheese enchiladas were good, those are hard to mess up. But the sauce was really red, like Korean food red which looks artificial. I prefer a more natural, muted, home style look for my enchilada sauce. Prices were relatively expensive I thought and the strip mall wasn't the most inviting. Needless to say, this won't be a place we'll be retuning to with all the great options around the valley. 3 stars isn't bad but I'm looking for exceptional. read more

This is a really great place to visit! The tacos are some of my go tos. We've tried a variety of the menu from tacos, tortas, flautas, quesadillas, etc. Everything is so good! They are always so kind. read more

Family owned restaurant with 4 locations in the valley. Great service and great food. They have the best quesabirria tacos. The family and I enjoyed. Glad we came back after years of not eating there. Also our first time trying pozole and we loved it. Street tacos are a must. Don't skip on the horchata. Didn't know they have chilaquiles which is my favorite breakfast item. Now I can get anytime! read more

I see why this place has high reviews. The quesa birria is one of the best I have tried in Vegas. It is full of flavor and perfectly tender. They got the cook on the shell just right not too hard or too soft. The carne asada plate was good and had a nice flavor. The steak was a little over cooked they should have taken it off about 2 mins sooner. The rice and beans were good but the beans could have used a little salt We will definitely be back. read more

I give this place a fire review cause it was incredibly delicious. It was bitter sweet finishing that burrito de tripas. I haven't had a burrito that good EVER! The seasonings in addition to the texture made this a top tier burrito. I ordered it medium crispy. When I tell you this was fire, it was next level and I am a Mexican food connoisseur. I can't wait to get another one lol I strongly recommend this place to everyone. If you haven't tried it, you're missing out. read more

Best Pozole in the whole entire valley!!! Such a hidden gem! The guy who works the counter is so friendly! It's small inside with few tables and is always busy. The food is absolutely delicious. I can't wait to try more things on the menu read more

Friend suggested to try out El Zarape. We visited on a Saturday night around 7:30pm and it was empty. Ordered the carnitas combo plate and was happy with what I ordered and my friend was satisfied with her plate as well; salsas were really good! We loved the interior along with the restaurant not being so busy and loud. Would definitely come again when I'm on this side of town. read more

If you're in Vegas looking for authentic Mexican food, this is it and a good option if you're in the area. It's hard to find good authentic Mexican food around Vegas and I have yet to try some others that are on my list.. Anyway, I ordered the carne asada and al pastor tacos and a carne asada burrito. I love that they add refried beans, rice and cilantro to their burrito. The tacos are tasty! I'll be back to try more! Good portions.. and other locations in the valley. read more

Amazing, usually go to Aloha Mamacita for a birria fix but usually theirs is too spicy for me because i don't eat anything spicy. However found this place on yelp and by far the best i've ever had. My new go to, my new favorite in town hands down. Compliments to workers and chef. Birria ramen is my new favorite thing, the birria tacos are heavenly as well and quesadillas can't go wrong. Service is TOP Tier girl at front desk is fast, efficient and very friendly to all. Super sweet. Inside is adorable i love it. But nothing compares to the food Thank you! read more

Food was really good. We had this for lunch while on a business trip to Vegas. I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely recommend it.

One of the best tortas ahogadas I've had in my life. (And also biggest!) Was in Jalisco earlier this year, and the whole feel of this place really took me back. Loved every bit of the experience. Highly recommend. read more

We got there about 45 min before closing and they did advise that we needed to order asap or the kitchen would close (like I get inside seating being shut down but the kitchen 30 min early?) a little annoying but it is what it is - also be advised the tiny place has limited seating and its pretty toasty inside so i might get my order to go next time! Anyway - the food was super good - the ramen was so meaty I actually wished there were more noodles! They do not skimp!! They have some great deals on the Birria plates and the tacos were really nice and full too!! The Birria Quesadilla was HUGE - you WILL get your moneys worth!! read more

Literally one of the best Mexican food restaurants I have had in my life. My husband is from a small town in Mexico that has amazing food and I'd say this rivals it! Of course they will have off days and maybe the menudo will have an extra piece of fat or an employee isn't the friendliest but that has no bearing on the deliciousness or authenticity of the food. My hubby and I always say it's a good review when you go to a restaurant and the people whose food it is are eating there! I.e you go to a Chinese restaurant where there are lots of Chinese eating, Indian restaurants with lots of Indian people eating there....same for this place! It's always filled with people who know what the real thing tastes like....what better review could you need! This trip we were in Vegas for 2 breakfasts and we ate there twice and literally had the exact same thing -2 quesabirria tacos $7 -menudo with corn tortillas $13 -chilaquiles rojo with over easy eggs $12 - cold Coke in a glass bottle $3 read more

I hail from the East Coast and have never understood the taco hype. I visited here one day for dinner with a friend and let me tell you - El Zarape was a huge step forward in jumping on the taco train. We tried the birria, carne asada, pollo and (I think) cabeza tacos. They were fresh and warm with soft shells and not shy on the fillings. I enjoy the double shell to keep everything in place and to have an extra shell to use for the over flow of contents from the initial taco. The warm hospitality at El Zarape was a nice cherry on top of an overall great experience. read more

First time here, place was super busy and all the food I saw coming out and being served looked good. I I had an adobada taco and queso birria taco. The queso birria taco comes with a cup of beef juice for dunking your taco in it. Tacos were very tasty and the hot sauce was good. There was also an asada burrito that was ordered and was told it was decent. Staff was friendly and location looked clean. I did not check bathroom but will check next time I stop by to try something else . read more
