I had such an amazing experience at The Taco Stand! The food is fresh, authentic, full of flavor, and you can genuinely taste the quality and care that goes into it. The flavor is honestly UNBEATABLE. I highly recommend the shrimp & steak fries and the shrimp & steak tacos you seriously cannot go wrong with either one. Everything was seasoned perfectly and packed with flavor. And the churros?! Those are made with LOVE! Fresh, warm, and the perfect way to finish the meal. I also have to recognize the amazing staff. Ada, the manager, was wonderful, Yessi, my cashier, was so friendly and welcoming, and Zita, the cook, absolutely did her thing! The food AND the customer service were exceptional. When you have authentic, delicious food and a team that genuinely makes you feel welcomed, it makes you want to come back. Thank you Ada, Yessi, and Zita for such a great experience. 10/10 I'll definitely be back!

I'm a bit sad that this place is a bit further off the strip but I knew I had to come here if time permitted while in Las Vegas because I go to the San Diego location each time I'm there! I've tried their meat based tacos but I prefer the Shrimp & Baja tacos here! It would be nice if they had trays to help bring ~~Parking: There's a shared lot where it appears this place is located at the bottom of a complex with a couple of other spots. Parking seemed a bit packed but there were still spots available, though I Ubered over from the strip. ~~Best Part: The Salsa bar! I like how they have many different types of salsas to choose from along with jalapenos & red onions. ~~Return: Yes

MAR Y TIERRA FRIES
Roxanne E.

We did a take out order for dinner. We ordered the bean and cheese burrito, carne Asada burrito, Baja taco, al Pastor taco, carne Asada taco and their Mar Y Tierra fries. Hands down the fries were delicious! It came with shrimp and steak with some guacamole and chipotle sauce. It did get soggy quick because of all the sauce and toppings, but it was still so good! All the tacos were yummy! However, the carne asada and Al pastor were a bit chewy. The fish in the Baja taco was cooked to perfection. The carne asada burrito was okay. Again the meat was kind of tough. My daughter enjoyed her bean and cheese burrito. It was huge! She definitely had a lot left over. Great spot if you are craving tacos!

CHURROS
Annie L.

Love this place! Absolutely delicious from carne asada burrito, to carne asada fries but mostly the churros!! Hands down best churros ever. Carne Asada fries have great seasons on the fries and can be eaten without any added items from the salsa bar!! Carne Asada Burrito a bit messy towards the end as things fall apart. LOVE the salsa bar! The Mild Avocado is good, and the Chipotle salsa with a smokiness is good too!! Service a bit slow but not due to laziness, just very busy place and very small kitchen cooking area. Tortillas are made fresh in-house.

Sonora tacos with cheese and burritos p fire, diversity of salsas unlimited (def try the creamy sauces) pairs well with thick crunchy chips rec buy a bag to share for table. Quite solid flavorful tacos. Seating may be difficult since the interior is quite tiny and it's very popular so be prepared to wait. Inside is cute and homey

Nopal and Camaron
Stacey W.

After having missed out on trying the nopal at one of their San Diego locations because they ran out, decided to come here and get one. This was delicious, just what I expected and the sauce bar is what I love about this place!

Pescado Taco, Baja taco

TLDR: It doesn't matter which branch you go to. Taco stand always delivers, and I've never hated a meal here. 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.

This place was worth the hype. For a reasonable price you get a fairly large taco. The Baja taco was my favorite. Even when hungry, two tacos will do it. The condiment bar is also excellent. Will definitely return.

Can't believe I have done a review for this spot yet! I've been a handful of times. Every time we visit Vegas it's our first stop. Food is always fresh and delicious. They also have a full salad bar with a handful of options from mild to habanero. The decor makes you feel as if you're eating in Mexico. Carne Asada is top notch. Pictured is the shrimp and pastor taco. The asada taco didn't make the photo lol

The Taco Stand in Chinatown is definitely worth a visit if you're craving great tacos. The carne asada and al pastor were both outstanding. The meat was flavorful, tender, and packed into fresh tortillas. Don't skip either of them. The restaurant also has some really cool artwork inside that gives the place a fun, vibrant atmosphere. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Las Vegas.

We have been going to Taco Stand a lot recently. The original location was founded in San Diego in 2013 by two guys from Tijuana. There are locations in Southern California, Florida, and Texas, We like how easy it is to get good food fast here. Parking at this location is ample. There's usually not a line when we go and the staff is always friendly. You order at the counter and then seat yourself. Sometimes it takes a little while to get your food, but that's fine because it's made fresh. My favorite items are the carne asada tacos, as well as the camaron (shrimp) tacos and elote. They also offer burritos, quesadillas, carne asada fries, and churros. There is a self-serve salsa bar that offers varying spice levels, from mild to extra spicy. The restaurant isn't fancy and I like that, too. This is just a great place to get some tasty tacos.

Taco spot under an apartment complex with decent parking. It was my first time trying it as I was craving street tacos and yes they are street tacos, therefore, I don't see a reason for 1 taco to cost over $4. Ordered a couple different ones: chicken which was dry and needed sauce and there was no flavor, fish which the fish tasted nice and was lightly breaded, however, there was just a tiny amount of sauce on the top, pastor which also was dry and felt like the pineapples were counted before putting it on, lastly, mushroom which was the only one that was flavorful and had a decent amount. I also requested extra sauce, onions, cilantro and lime on the side which was not there. The staff looked like they were over it and weren't all that welcoming. And the ordered was placed online for pickup but was not ready when I got there. It was Friday afternoon so I get there was kind of a lunch rush but that should be expected I feel. Overall was not impressed by the food or the lack of service.

If you are craving cheap Mexican food, this is the place. Had an Al Pastor burrito with rice and beans on the side. It was good. I'd still give the nod to Sergs but since the had an actual salsa bar, it's a winnah! I heard it's best to go on off hours cause it gets packed. We had no problem as we went just before 11am. The Pico de gallo was good,as were the rest of the salsas. Surprisingly the habanero wasn't very burner.

Is there a time frame that is not so busy to visit or is it always busy regardless?

Mostly busy, but line moves quick and chairs also become available fairly quickly.

Just curious do they put lard in there beans?

Im not sure but everything is so fresh.

Are your tortillas gluten free?

I also got their grilled onions and peppers, and that little extra kick took everything to another level. If you're coming to Vegas and want a cheap, filling meal, this is definitely a spot to add to your list. And honestly, one vampiro taco and you will be STUFFED! The hype is real.

It seemed a little confusing at first, but they clearly have it worked out to a science and everything moves pretty quickly. The homemade corn tortillas were probably one of my favorite parts. The steak and pork tacos were both excellent and definitely my favorites. The chorizo was okay, but I'd probably skip it next time and get another steak or pork instead. Overall, the tacos were delicious and we were really pleased with the experience. It's a fun place and a little different from your typical taco shop. I would definitely go back the next time I'm in Vegas.

After my spectacular first meal at Toca Madera, I had to schedule a return, which I did Friday…read moreevening. This time my daughter and niece joined me. I was excited to dine in the main dining room rather than at my bar-area table from Wednesday. Travis, our server, was fantastic, just like Mariah on my first visit. I will say, it seemed even louder in the main dining room. The electronic dance music soundtrack makes you feel like you're dining in a hot dance club. Definitely not the place for a quiet dinner, but it's all part of the Toca Madera experience. We started with the Watermelon and Passion Fruit Margaritas. Both superb. For a starter, we ordered the Queso Fundido. It arrived at the table like molten lava, so we had to give it a few minutes before diving in. Once we did, it was incredible. For our entrees and sides, we had the Petite Filet and Seared Scallops. Both were awesome. We also ordered the Street Corn, which I had loved so much on Wednesday, and the Whipped Potatoes. The potatoes, with a little jalapeño oil and lime salt, were insanely good. During dinner, Travis treated our table to Toca Madera's fire shots. They arrive in tall shot glasses topped with a seasoned lime slice and sugar cube, which is then lit on fire tableside. It's quite the presentation and fits this restaurant perfectly. Apparently we made a good impression on management, because dessert turned into an event of its own. We were treated to a huge platter featuring the Brownie Celebration along with the Strawberry Tres Leches and Brown Butter Cake. It was quite a finish to the meal. As great as my Wednesday dinner was, Friday night was even better. And this time we had a ringside seat for Toca Madera's female fire performer, who came out at 7:30 and again at 8:30. Watching her perform just a few feet from our table was amazing and really capped off the evening. Two visits in three days. That probably tells you everything you need to know about how much I enjoyed Toca Madera.
