    Mi primera vez visitando el restaurante y la última. No hubo necesidad de probar la comida porque a simple vista estaba un cabello largo entre el huevo. Logré verlo a tiempo así que no tuve que sacarlo de mi boca. Me parece lo más antihigiénico y asqueroso. NO RECOMIENDO VISITEN EL RESTAURANTE. No dije nada por que me provocó más asco que pena. Me levanté de la mesa y dejé el plato intacto como me lo sirvieron. No soy un comensal exigente, soy Mexicano pero un cabello largo a simple vista me parece asqueroso. 00/10

    Street tacos - asada & lengua Taco Azteca - asada & al pastor
    Griselda B.

    It's pretty big and clean inside, very nice decor, good Spanish music. You smell the asada as soon as you walk in. Workers were nice, can't complain. Food was amazing, I enjoyed all the meats. Did not get a photo of the street tacos carne arabe or taco cabeza but those were also delicious. 10/10, I would come back.

    Ramen Birria

    I ordered this for lunch tacos in Birria Ramen. I didn't receive any broth or to dip the tacos in, but the tacos are tasty. I got delivered so there wasn't any customer service, but the delivery was fast and they made the food fast as far as ambience, I will have to visit the restaurant one day. The Ramen lack flavor I had to add seasonings at home but this is not what Birria ramen should taste like.

    Probably one of the best taco places I've been to in the whole country! The waiter was very nice and easy to talk to. They also have a generous variety of salsas and condiments in the self-service bar. The place itself is quite clean and spacious, and creatively decorated too! The tacos had nice and tender meat and were not overly seasoned or cheesy - just the right amount of flavor! I also had a lengua vampiro (kind of like a tortilla sandwich - think overstuffed mulitas) that had a lot of cheese that really melted with the meat, but wasn't overwhelming. They also had some complimentary chips to go with all of it, which was a nice touch. Really my only complaints are the bathroom doors which didn't seem to work, and how empty the place felt. I suppose we came during down-time when fewer people are eating. I imagine more people come in throughout the day to fill it up, but either way, I recommend checking this place out to liven things up a bit!

    Chicken burrito

    The chicken burrito was delicious! My husband got the shrimp taco plate and it was gorgeous and delicious!! Highly recommend if you are training in the area! There's a salsa bar to dress your burrito as you wish!!

    Birria Burrito

    This is a really good spot, very small, but extremely underrated! The food is tasty and my favorite is the Beef Birria. It is pretty pricey, For three meals I paid about $60. I guess that standard nowadays at any restaurant. Their Agua de Jamaica (hibiscus) is so good as well as their Horchata! If you like either one of those drinks, you will enjoy theirs. The parking area is small, but they have a steady flow of people so it's never too packed. Every time I've came here it's always been around lunchtime hours. Their menu is small, but it has a variety of different meals. Try it out if you're looking for some authentic Mexican food.

    Two tacos pastor & two tacos asada.

    When we go on Pokémon go adventures at sunset park, the best place to fuel up and get our taco fix is here. Place is really clean and food comes out fast and hot. Really friendly service. The pricing is super reasonable considering the quality.

    Saw this establishment being advertised and their carne arabe (pork) tacos caught my eye. So I dragged my husband here to have lunch with me one Saturday! It was pretty empty when we walked in but it was very clean. You'll go up and order your food and they will bring it to your table. I decided to get two carne arabe street tacos, one pastor street taco with pineapples, and one lengua street taco. I also made sure to get my pastor and lengua on flour tortillas. My husband got almost the same variety except he got carne asada instead of lengua. We also got an order of chips & guac. There's a stand/bar where you can grab some salsa, lime, cilantro, onions, radishes, etc. They also have containers for you to get it to-go as well! When our food came out, they actually included chips to your order, which is great. Cause you can just grab some salsa from the bar and you got some chips & salsa! The carne arabe (pork) tacos are, by far, their best. It was delicious and the sauce they used on it was different from your regular salsa. It had a smokey BBQ type of flavor to it so it did have sweetness. I added cilantros and onions to it as well. The pastor had good flavor but it had a lack of fattiness to the meat. The meat that they used seemed pretty lean so extra salsa was needed. The lengua was the same as the pastor -- it didn't have the fattiness that I was used to but flavor was good. Everything that we had was pretty good. I would definitely come back for the carne arabe. Maybe next time I'll try a burrito or something!

    Family of 3 enjoyed the quesobarria combination plate, Tacos de Asada combination and my plato was also a combinatione of arabe (pork). We're from New Mexico and thoroughly enjoyed the cuisine of 2 Carnales! Friendly people, awesome guacomole n chips, yummy beans and rice. We enjoyed tge ambiance of cumbia and other greats. Loved it!

    Salsa bar
    Nai L.

    A nice sized restaurant with about 10 tables with some Hispanic music in the background. The staff were all very nice and attentive We really enjoyed our food: The árabe taco was unique and flavorful and came with a sweet chipotle sauce that was delicious. They use a flour tortilla vs a corn one. The carne asada taco had great flavor and they did not skimp on the meat. Meat was not dry but had that nice grilled flavor The lengua was tender but needed a little salt The Al pastor was delicious in the taco and vampiro - we enjoyed the flavor and liked that small pieces of pineapple were mixed in. The salsas had good flavor with a little kick. Solid place to grab some fast Mexican food as we enjoyed everything

    Cemita with fries and birria plate.
    Lad D.

    I've probably driven and rode my bike by this place over 20 times, but I was watching Mexi Papa on YouTube and he highlighted Taqueria 2 Carnales. The cemita was in his video and I knew I had to try it. I picked the beef cemita. The meat is cooked milanese style, it was tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. The sandwich is loaded with avocados, queso, pimentos, and some other goodies. The papas fritas were nice and crispy. The birria plate was very generous and could feed two people. The meat was tender, moist and juicy. With a good helping of frijoles, rice and tortillas you are good to go. They also have a fixings bar with different salsas, onions, cilantro and pickled vegetables. The staff was super nice and the dining area was clean and spacious. Can't wait to try the quesobirrias next time!

    I can say these are the best tacos in Vegas!

    This place is just "meh". The al pastor was under flavored and lots of the meat was either burned to a crisp or overly fatty.

I tried several dishes, and while some were a bit too spicy for my taste, the flavors were great. I did try to request some items without spice, but that wasn't always possible. The margaritas were just okay--not bad, but not particularly memorable either. I wouldn't say they're among the best I've had. The tacos were definitely the highlight, especially the pork carnitas, absolutely delicious and highly recommended!

The crab cake smelled and looked like cat food. It wasn't good. They also only have Pepsi, Diet Pepsi & Starry. That's it. The busser cleaned a table with a rag/towel and then reset the silverware without washing hands or anything. It was disturbing. The staff is nice, and the view is lovely. It was ok, it wasn't a $60 meal. There's a whole ass food court 200 steps away, with a huge variety of food. Just saying.

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!

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!

Placed my order and started to collect some condiments. After getting my Sriracha and a little bit of soy sauce, my order was ready and when they handed me the bag, I was shocked at how heavy it was!

I got the Nori wrap and and had a little crunch, added to the proteins and fresh avocado and cut it in half and this was literally a meal for three! The best bargain I have seen in Vegas for the last week! I typically will spend $60-$70 on Sushi at my Sushi bar north of Atlanta. And I know have I gone to one of the local sushi bars I would've also spent over $100 and probably had not had as much food or fresh tuna, salmon and yellowtail. After cutting it in half I dipped it in my Sriracha pile and bid in to a wonderful flavorful fresh seafood bundle! Never had a sushi burrito, but I am hooked. Wish I would've come here earlier, but was literally only able to eat half of this and put the other half in my mini fridge and eat it the next day for lunch. Fresh ingredients, great flavors, brilliant execution, and it really hit the spot. Inexpensive and was exactly what I was looking for. Great staff and service. Highly recommend.!!!

An amazing appetizer is the Shrimp Empanadas! Truly, the best empanadas we've ever had. Combining this with their fresh guacamole takes this plate to the next level. BEST DRINK = BLACK MAMBA! For seafood lovers, their Camarones Al Mojo De Ajo is a must-order. It features four large king-size shrimp cooked in their flavorful garlic butter sauce. If you're feeling peckish, their Polvo Asado is an absolute delight. The chicken breast appears to have been marinated for an extended period, resulting in a tender and incredibly delicious dish.

They are filled with a generous portion of shrimp and their fresh guacamole green sauce is very delicious. Not spicy but rich in flavor. Another standout dish is their Cabo Azul. This plate is a feast for the senses, featuring a Maine Lobster Enchilada, a chile stuffed with shrimp and crab, and a shrimp taco. Be prepared to be hungry after indulging in this culinary masterpiece. For dessert, indulge in their renowned Pastel De Guayaba (Guayaba Cheesecake). It's a must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth.
