I love this place which is cool casual rustic Mexican vibe. The chips are fresh and warm (salsa is…read moreokay). The taco salad was very nice with excellent shredded breast of chicken and a fresh taco shell bowl - lettuce was like it was picked out of the garden and just freshly washed & served (very fresh lettuce, which is always a bonus)! Prices are reasonable and location and parking is super easy. Service was rough this visit: 35 + min for a taco salad (they were very busy inside, but the patio was not even at 1/3 capacity, so for those of us sitting on the patio we would have no idea that the inside was super busy). Clearly experienced waitress was apologetic about the long wait when finally serving my lunch, but having waitressed for many of my earlier years, I would've liked to have heard that there was going to be a long wait when I sat down (she said unexpected busy Labor Day weekend); I would've liked the option to have opted out, as I was traveling and was looking for a quick meal break (just my opinion, but it's far better to lay out timing expectations from the onset so people can decide if they have the time to wait [then to apologize for them after the fact, when people are already frustrated and wondering why the wait felt unreasonable]). Although I wasn't as thrilled with my service experience this trip, I will continue to visit and next time just ask the question about timing ;)

We heard good things about this place and were in the mood for Mexican food. They were busy when…read morewe arrived and we were sat at a skinny table for 2 in the middle of larger tables. I was kind of in the aisle and felt like I may be in the way of people and staff walking by, but it worked out ok. Despite it being busy, we were waited on quickly. They brought out chips and salsa to start while we reviewed the menu. I ordered the chicken with shrimp that came with rice, beans and tortillas. My husband got the chili verde chimichanga with rice and beans. The food was fresh and the plates were hot. I really enjoyed my meal and liked the flavors of the shrimp and chicken topped with cheese and fresh mushrooms. I must have been hungry because I cleaned the plate. The beans were good, and had a sweeter flavor like I like. The rice was cooked well and did not have any undercooked crunchy bits. I would surely return again when I'm in the area.

Service: My order had to be repeated like five times.

Order was two asada tacos and one al pastor with green salsa. The other was one taco de Al pastor and one buche and an 8 ounce cup of beans. Asada was nothing special, kind of bland. Al Pastor: it was decent, would eat again, it's better than most. Buche: was nicely flavored. Beans: I love beans that aren't completely smashed and have some texture! Their beans were a beautiful texture. The beans fell really flat on flavor. The taste was beans, not beans cooked with any additional flavors. I didn't have more than one bite. The texture was on point though, wish they were flavorful. Taco size: the tortillas are the very small street size. We did see someone get served asada fries which were huge and looked good, I'd swap the meat out. Cleanliness: The store, meat market and restaurant were all clean. Would we return? For the pastor or buche yes, would skip anything with beans and asada.

Service was very good, friendly and attentive but not intrusive. The food was very good, in fact the chile colorado burro was excellent. Prices were fair and portions were large.

Overall Rating: 1.0 / 5.0 Date of Visit: September 17, 2026…read moreTotal Spent: $87.00 I paid $87 for what effectively turned out to be eight carne asada tacos and a michelada, and left completely dissatisfied. The T-bone steak was ordered medium-rare, but it was served thin, completely overcooked to well-done, and had the texture of rubber--entirely inedible. To make matters worse, the tortilla soup we ordered never arrived at all. While management applied a partial discount for the spoiled steak, charging nearly $90 for a handful of tacos and drinks due to kitchen errors is unacceptable. The service made the experience even worse. Server check-ins were non-existent, and no one ever came by to ask how the meal was or ensure our missing items were delivered. Extremely disappointing service and poor quality control for a high-ticket dinner.

Oasis 29 is one of the longest standing seller of Indian tacos and fried bread that I can remember seeing in the desert. My husband has enjoyed stopping here with me for several years as well. Before all the sellers of bright lights, car washes, and other items started popping up, Oasis 29 was cooking authentic Indian tacos, served with meat or beans (vegetarian) on a hot fried bread. They have a shaded area to sit out front and they put out fresh cut onions, homemade salsa, and a couple of hot sauce bottles to garnish your fresh taco. Chairs and tables are often full. Luckily the food doesn't take long to make and most people are gobbling it down quickly, so it doesn't take long to find a seat. This is definitely one of the freshest places to get an Indian taco. While I assume many other of the spots are great also, sometimes you pull over for the tempting "Indian Taco" sign, and you get a family selling tacos under an umbrella out of a cooler. I stick to Oasis! They are fondly visited every year that I'm in the area.

The tacos and tostada were bigger than we thought they'd be, so the family was pleasantly surprised. We weren't as impressed with the enchiladas. Ordered a beef and a chicken. The sauce didn't taste much different than canned and the beef was a bit dry. Wanted to try the menudo since it was a Saturday, but we didn't want a full $14.99 portion - 1/2 size would have done the trick. The place wasn't busy. The furniture is a bit run down. Bathrooms were adequate. Service was quick. Would definitely stop in again.

Opened recently by Miguel & Wendy Esquibel, the young couple strive every day to meet the growing demand for their delicious artisan tortillas and other specialties. I've personally tried the regular flour, whole wheat flour, yellow corn, cilantro/jalapeno corn, avocado corn, blueberry/cinnamon flour and banana/pineapple flour tortillas. I'll say this about La Tortilla Factory tortillas - we cannot keep enough of them in the house. Mass-produced grocery story tortillas are a thing of the past for us, now. Customer service has always been friendly (especially the liberal sample tortillas). If you driving through Winnemucca - this is a must stop. They're right on Winnemucca Blvd - next to the Shell Gas Station and Convenience store. You can also follow them on Facebook, check La Tortilla Factory-Winnemucca.
