    Great staff, great customer service and great food specials. I had their all you can eat tacos special ($20). Plus two michelladas plus tip, came close to $40. Good people, good food, good environment. The only thing that kept me on my guard, was the area. Downtown is sketchy at best. I also ended up paying $6 for street parking (1.5 hours).

    I tried this place on a random night and seen they were open late and had decent prices for being downtown. The chicken taco wasn't The best, the drinks were OK, and the steak could have been cooked more. I appreciated the fact they issued me a refund due to my displeasure. The manager came out and she was so accommodating and even invited me back. With customer service like that , I will definitely give this place another chance .

    Never heard of a place that has all you can eat quesabirria tacos for $35 !!! awesome deal, awesome decorations. i will definitely be back to this place. we went for restaurant week and it came with a marg, AYCE food, and churros all for $30. Normally it's $35 so i will definitely be back for that price when it's no long restaurant week. The staff was always friendly and checking up on us and I had zero complaints for this spot!!

    This taco bar is the newest restaurant on East Fremont Street is by the same owners of Evil Pie (which is directly across the street). To start of the vibe and interior design is nice, has a this is going to be a great night feel. They have a Mexican Luchador design and have both American and Mexican wrestling matches playing in the background. The drinks are great and the prices are even better (for being on Fremont). Try their signature drinks oh they do have a great tequila (and other hard liquor) selection. Had to try their Michelada and it was spicy and delicious! Now the food: two words delicious and cheap!! We had a side of chips and salsa, their Mexican pizza and three tacos (two chicken and a shrimp taco). The pizza was amazing and very filling. Btw try their hot sauce, gives the food a good kick! The tacos were on point, the perfect amount of meat. Oh and the best part: all this food was around $50. Will definitely come here again.

    Tart margaritas ...not my fave

    We went for the "$20 - All you can eat tacos" and only ate the 4 that we originally ordered because they just weren't that good. We had margaritas which were more citrus-y tart than we like. This place is from the Evel Pie pizza place across the street, which we like so this was pretty disappointing! All and all I wouldn't go back unless they improve the tacos or maybe... if the margaritas were super cheap for some happy hour. I'd skip this place and go to Carajillos about a block away for their happy hour. Drinks were better and cheaper during Happy Hour!

    My sister and I came here for Cinco De Mayo/Taco Tuesday. Ain't that crazy?! Taco Tuesday and Cinco de Mayo! Whew! What a combo! My sister got off late but we were determined to find somewhere to go so we googled and found this place. It is downtown so I was a little hesitant because it gets hectic down there but we had a great time. We were offered the option to purchase a shot at the door for $5 which we accepted! Inside is very small so if you come on a busy night you may not have seating. There was a DJ, people dancing! It honestly was a time. We ordered our food at the bar. This is where the lost star comes in. We ordered Nachos to share. My sister ordered 4 tacos and I ordered 4 tacos. When the order came, we only received 5 tacos and I realized he only billed me for 5. Which I guess is good that I didn't have to wait for more food but I really wanted my tacos! That's what I came out for. It was pretty loud in there so I get it but sheesh. My sister shared her tacos with me. The nachos and tacos were both good! When we finished eating we went back to the bar and shared a flight before heading out. I'll come back if I ever have a night out on the town

    This mushroom taco is unbelievable! Well done Chef Carlos! Shrimp taco with the queso shell upgrade. Do it!

    On the last night of our 30th anniversary Las Vegas getaway we wanted to keep it close to the Circa (our home away from home). I was looking for a hard pour and the hubby was in search of some soft tacos. On our first day, we passed Taco Escobar on the way to the Downtown Container Park. Hubby looked it up and found they had options for his pescatarian bride of three decades. So, after a full day of running around Vegas, we closed the chapter on our Flirty 30 trip with a corner table at this interesting joint. You order at the register near the bar and they bring your drinks and food to your table. Or you can just enjoy it at the bar. Everyone was exceptionally welcoming and helpful. Felt like you were coming over to a friend's for drinks and a meal. The margarita was a very reasonably priced hard pour in a Tajin rimmed glass. Started with the chips and salsa and a side of guacamole. Generous servings, fun aesthetic, tasty beginning... Added the corn queso and black bean sides. The corn was sweet, savory, and cheesy. And the beans were rich and flavorful. We had so much chips we ended up topping them with the corn and beans and salsa and guac. Like a make your own nachos--so fun and so delicious! Who says you shouldn't play with your food?!? Hubby tried the birria and steak tacos. I had the shrimp and mushroom. We also added the queso shells on one of our selections. DO THIS! It added a savory and crispy layer of cheese around the corn tortilla shell. Fillings were flavorful and fresh. And the mushroom taco had so much umami that it tasted like meat. The texture was unbelievable! Carlos the chef came out to check on things and said he doesn't eat mushrooms but he eats this taco. The mushrooms are braised for three hours. You can tell he puts his heart into his cooking and it shows. The meal didn't feel greasy or heavy. It was just the right amount of everything. We left feeling satisfied and happy that we decided to end our trip at this small but inviting establishments right off the Fremont Street Experience. If you visit Las Vegas we encourage you to 'step outside' the strip, the hotels, and the malls. Try these local establishments and discover some delicious food and fine people while creating a unique experience and lasting memory. PS--Hubby got bought some merch and is rocking is Taco Escobar shirt in the 808!

    Attended a private event here. Basically a dive bar on Fremont Street. Ambiance It is a dive bar, however I liked the lucha libre theme on the walls. Food They had shrimp and other types of tacos on trays. Tacos cold but had good flavor. Bartenders friendly. Made stiff drinks.

    Newer bar/restaurant on east Fremont street in downtown Vegas...food is mainly Mexican handhelds, street tacos, burrito, etc; prices are ok but the tacos are smaller in size...they do have an excellent happy hour daily where for twenty bucks you get as many tacos as you can eat in a one hour period...drinks are on special then as well...service was fine and the bartender did a pretty good job for being solo, it wasn't slammed but it wasn't dead either...Mexican wrestling adorns the walls throughout, pretty cool...small seating area in back that is available for family seating...has only been open for several months or so, hopefully they can sustain, the only drawback was the $9 charged for a can of hazy little thing, a BIT high in my opinion, but, the food is very good...will try again if in downtown area...RECOMMEND

    The queso Escobar style has an amazing cheese crunch. I tried Al pastor with pineapple and nicely grilled protein.

    If your in downtown Las Vegas , you have to stop by and enjoy the taco experience at Taco Escobar. The lucha libre decor is on steroids but adds a unique Mexican style to enjoy in the dining tables or bar. Samantha provided amazing service and attention while providing details about the menu and drinks. Great place to watch sports this World Cup summer and hangout with friends.

    Service was amazing the food was great. Shout out to the girl working the bar and taking orders she was running that place with little to no staff forgot her name but yeah she was whipping that place into shape

    Allyson P.

    When I tell you, I love it here I seriously keep coming back! The food is so delicious literally anything you've ordered and dare. I say the hotdog may be the best thing on the menu! The service is very quick, I love sitting at the bar because the ambience to be able to watch Fremont Street go by is the best!

    Birria tacos
    Taylor R.

    Found this amazing hidden gem near Fremont Street! The tacos were incredible, the vibe was perfect, and the happy hour margaritas are a must-try (10/10). Huge shoutout to Albert and Carlos for being so amazing and making our last day in Vegas so memorable. Great food, better people. Don't miss this place!

    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.

My carne asada chef's special tacos were incredibly juicy and packed with flavor (unlike the dry ones you often get elsewhere).

This place may be a small tavern-style spot with just enough seating, but don't let the size fool you. The moment you walk in, the aroma of the birria comes rolling out of the kitchen like a raging bull--it lets you know you're in the right place! They offer both goat and beef birria, and the flavor is absolutely incredible. I've only been eating birria for about five years, but in that time I've made it a mission to try it everywhere I travel. I've had birria from Las Vegas, California, Nebraska, Florida, and Texas, and I can honestly say Birria Bite is hands down the best I've had. I always order the Quesabirria Combo, and it never disappoints. The consommé is rich, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned--good enough to sip on by itself. And even though it's outside my normal diet, I can't leave without getting the Piña pineapple drink. It's sweet, refreshing, and absolutely fire. The hospitality is always A1, the staff makes you feel welcome every visit, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and portions you receive. This is one of those hidden gems you'll keep coming back to. If you haven't been yet, you're missing out. Don't meet me there... beat me there... or be square!

MAR Y TIERRA BURRITO - It's still the lightest burrito that provides the most size. I can't say enough good things about the aioli that they use to add flavor profiles to the shredded vegetables used to add body to the burrito. The steak and shrimp used here were good as usual, and the cheese added in is always a welcome surprise. Pescado Taco - The grilled fish taco is one of their better tacos. It's a meaty fish bite, and you get the "signature" slaw + avocado slice. Baja Taco - Most of their tacos are given the sauce + slaw combo along with the protein. I feel that the baja improves in my taco ranking depending on how much fish I get per taco. The batter is amazing and it's really a question if you want to eat fried fish or not. Camaron Taco - Crunchy shrimp, and very good slaw. But I feel that the shrimp is best paired with the steak, thankfully, they have a mar y tierra taco, which I think is the better thing to order. Ambiance: It's one of their bigger branches, so finding a table isn't difficult. Everything else inside the store is stock standard to all the branches I've been to. Service: You order, pay, and they call your name to pick up your food. Straightforward.
