Tamale & Taquitos!
Luna H.

So good and the woman who works here is so sweet! Found this place yesterday... Had to stop by today to get some more food because it was so good.

I ended up at Fantastic swamp roaming around and suddenly I see this booth with Mexican decorations and a menu. I ordered 2 tacos and got to try their juice, which I then also ordered: cucumber juice. The chicken taco was good but the fish taco was out of this world. Delicious!!! The juice was really good too just too sweet for me. I was gonna water it down but ended up drinking it as is. This spot is a hidden gem! Friendly staff, good service and simple but superb Mexican food.

I was checking out Fantastic Swap Meet and came across Tia's Cafe. I decided to try it. They have authentic Mexican cuisine. From what I learned, their food are made-from-scratch. They have Burritos, Nachos, Tostados, Quesadillas, Chicken Wings and more. I tried their Chicken Wings, and also tried their Churros for dessert and Mexican corn. They are located at the corner of Oakey Blvd and Decatur Blvd inside the Swap Meet. Oh, don't forget to try their specialty drinks Horchata. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. There are several small seatings. The service was fast and on par. This is a great find and a hidden gem and I want to try the other items on the menu. The menu are not overwhelming and the prices are reasonable. You pay the $1 to get in to the Swap Meet and I believe it's in the aisle H and follow the Food sign. They don't have a separate door. Remember they are open only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 9am - 6pm. Maybe that will change in the future.

fish tacos, beans & rice. pollo sopa.
Alitalia A.

Honestly some of the best Mexican food I've had... even better than some places in Mexico! For $6.99 I ordered the 2 fish tacos, beans & rice combo.The best fish tacos I've had. The batter was thick & crispy, it wrapped around the fish & matched the soft fish texture perfectly and wasn't greasy or flaky... paired very well with the flavorful refried beans and fluffy spanish rice. For $5 the pollo sopa has a whole chicken thigh, marinated carrots, (cucumbers or zucchini, couldn't tell) and cabbage. The broth was light, full of flavor & however, not heavily salted...just a perfect blend. For $2 you have your small drink choice of homemade cantelope, pineapple and the BEST HORCHATA I've ever drank. Seriously, I've had some over cinnamon-ed, over milky horchata and the flavors in this blend are just perfect! I think perfect seems to be the key word to describe this place. Whoever's Tia is cooking, MUCHAS GRACIAS!!!

Sopes!

2016 Yelp 100 Review Challenge - 38/100 A hidden gem at the indoor swap meet! The food is made fresh. One thing you need to try is their torta. Torta is delicious & a good size. I had a half and it was more than enough for me. The bread was soft on the inside and crisp on the outside. The meat was flavorful and tender, soooo DELICIOUS. Good amount of sauce as well. And dare I say it... it may be better than some I've had in Cali. (Sorry no photo of torta, I was hungry :-P I will take photos next time, for sure!) Our group had the sopes, elote, fried chicken & fries, enchiladas and horchata. All were delicious, no complaints. The torta and horchata was my fave from this spot. Food & service were amazing, it felt like going over to my Mexican cousins' house for some home cooked meals. Looking forward to coming here again next time I'm at the Fantastik Swap Meet.

Best enchiladas I've tasted in my mouth!
Gil R.

Are you serious? This restaurant is legit and tasty beyond words! It is in an indoor swap meet and it doesn't disappoint! I was really hungry after walking around the swap meet for deals and they have great finds. I really wanted tasty mexican food during my trip and I'm glad that I found this restaurant! I asked the worker what is their best seller and he said their enchiladas are tasty! I ordered one order that includes 3 enchiladas with green sauce. Inside has tons of cheese and tender steak. On the side has lettuce, cucumbers, and radish. It complimented well with the cheesy tasty enchiladas! The enchiladas were very cheesy and delicious that if I lived in the neighborhood then I'd visit each weekend. Also I bought a refreshing strawberry lemonade! Check out this restaurant in the indoor swapmeet and you won't be disappointed. :-)

Cheese enchiladas double beans really good
michelle c.

This place is inside the Fantastic Indoor Swap Meet in Las Vegas off of Decatur and Oakey really good food the cheese enchiladas with red sauce are great I've also had a with green sauce There bomb their tortas are also good. There elotes are jamming

Dobt miss out!
Philip P.

This little Taqueria is amazingly good! The owner Alboro has a passion for excellence. Everything that comes out of the kitchen, made by one of his 3 beautiful cooks, is looked over by him and does not hit your table unless its perfect. I fully recommend paying the dollar to get into the Fantastik Swap meet just to get into this place for food. If your already going to the swap meet check out Tia's you won't be disappointed its quality Mex grub for sure. The Mexican Corn is probably the most popular dish.

Yummy

Seriously, you can't go wrong with anything you order. And don't let the long lines scare you! The service is super quick, so you're not waiting nearly as long as you might expect. 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. Definitely worth the stop!

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.

The quesadilla featured a flour tortilla stuffed with melted Monterey Jack cheese and tender chicken breast. It arrived on a sizzling plate, accompanied by pico de gallo, sour cream, and guacamole. The combination was flavorful, satisfying, and perfect for sharing. By the time we finished, our bellies were full and happy! I'm looking forward to returning and trying one of their World Famous Nachos. The Fiesta Nacho, Fajita Nacho, Nacho Average Burger Nacho, and Filet Mignon Nacho all sound tempting. With so many options, it'll be hard to choose just one!

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.
