We stopped by for some tacos around midnight after a concert, and even at that late hour, the place was buzzing with people grabbing a bite. The restaurant was clean, and the staff were really helpful. The tacos were fantastic! I went with the pork tacos and paired them with a refreshing horchata. I'm glad this location on Sunset is a bit off the Strip, so no need to head to the one on the Strip.

This location is probably more accessible than the one near the strip due to having its own parking lot. Entering the place, you can see multiple lines for food of choice (mainly meat of choice). They also had other food items you can order such as fries. The lines were long and not as fast if the person in front orders a bunch of things. Since the lines were a bit long, we decided to order 6 beef options instead of waiting in line for the others. The tacos are tiny, flavor wise really depends on what meat you choose. You can also get it with or without salsa (green salsa is pretty spicy). Lots of onions and cilantro, tortillas were soft and held together nicely. The only one I didn't enjoy was the beef brain, I guess the aftertaste of the fat didn't suit me so well. Everything else was delicious. We also got a fountain drink and they had a series of specialty drinks such as horchata as non soda options. Overall, I'd come back and try their other items, we came for a taste as we had family dinner plans right after but wanted to come anyways for a bite. Restrooms are gendered and fairly clean.

Visited on a Saturday around noon and was pleasantly surprised--no line or wait for a booth. The pastor tacos were a solid 4/5, packed with flavor and a nice kick. A slice of pineapple on top would have made them perfect. The asada taco, however, was a bit disappointing at 2.5/5. While the flavor was good, the meat was quite dry. Overall, great spot for pastor tacos!

Tacos El Gordo is my favorite taco place in Vegas and I am so glad they opened this new location. The one on the strip is always so crowded and the one by Maryland is a bit shady. Pros - great location off 215. Wide open space and seating. Good consistent taste of their tacos. Cons - none! Definitely check out their new place! Going to be one of my staples.

Zero stars for a first timer knowing how to order. I felt like I was in a Seinfeld Episode and it would be "no tacos for you", so I had to observe for a bit to get the hang of it. I figured it out and was happy I did. I had a chorizo (didn't taste chorizo-y at all), a carne asada (yum) and an Al Pastor taco. The chorizo was OK, the Carne Asada was Good, and the Al Pastor was great, although it had too many toppings so the pineapple and crispy pork goodness got a little lost. Look at that meat spit (not Hawk Tuah, but the spinning spindle of pork/pineapple). That was some good stuff. So basically, you stand in what you think is a line (there are between 4 and 6 of them at the food counter, I couldn't quite tell what all the stations were). you scream your order to the person behind. Then scream it again. And then they put plates of tacos out for you. Get a tray and carry them over to the cash register to the right (and a bit behind you). Pay, get a drink, and find somewhere to sit and enjoy. I'd go back for sure and try some of their other tacos. Tacos are so good and these ones were some of the better ones I've had. Once you get the hang of it, it's probably easier to deal with. I'd love to try their sister location if it existed though.... Tacos La Flaca!

Absolutely worth the Uber ride from the Strip! Tacos El Gordo on Sunset Rd. is a bit off the beaten path, but that worked in our favor since there were no lines at 11 a.m. on a Saturday. We went straight in and were enjoying our food in no time. The adobada (spicy pork) was phenomenal--definitely my top recommendation--but honestly, you can't go wrong with any of the options. The tacos are on the pricier side, but with 3-4, you'll be full and satisfied. Will definitely be back!

Loved that this location was spacious, clean and had it's own parking lot. When I got there, it was busy, but since there were multiple lines it went somewhat fast. What I didn't like was that if you want to order different meats, you have to get in different lines and wait all over again. It was also somewhat hard to order because one staff member wasn't able to understand my English (but he was very professional and smiled). The food was good. I didn't try anything I didn't like. And I loved that they had nopales and grilled onions. Their salsa also elevated their food. I'd definitely go back for more

Tacos el Gordo is one of my favorite spots to stop by at when I'm in LV! Get ready to fight for parking spots and wait in line for a while cause this place is always popping. Nevertheless, definitely a must try restaurant and it is always worth the wait. After a long drive to get here from LA, we were famished and got the adobada and carne asada tacos. Wow, were they amazing tacos! My personal favorite was the adobada. I swear the sauce that they put on it is straight up crack. It is soo good and the meat is super tender. The carne asada tacos were also amazing. The meat had a really good smoky taste to it. Adding the guac really tops it off. Don't forget to get the tacos with jalapeño and onions! They are a nice addition to the tacos and free of charge. I can't wait to go back for more delicious tacos!

Our favorite! We usually get pork adobada (pork) tacos with everything including their infamous green sauce...& our kids love their quesadillas and the unlimited refill drinks is bomb! Never had a problem with service and place is big enough to sit comfortably. Great location, right across of town square and off the strip.

We arrived on a Saturday evening with just a couple of parking spots left. As we walked inside there were long lines across the floor as they have different sections for different type of food. It's a large venue with many booths that were all full. Once you get to order your food, you take your tray to another counter to pay for them and order your drinks. The ladies at this counter was cordial and efficient and they speak English which is a bonus at an authentic tacos joint like this. We ordered 2 Lengua tacos, 2 Buche tacos which was written pork face on the menu but it's really pork stomach and it's chopped up. Really good stuff! Must try! We also ordered Cabeza (beef head meat) Tortas which has a dry hard toasted shell. Too hard for my braces so I let hubby gobble it. We also had Cabeza Azteca tacos which is a normal tacos with grilled cactus. First time trying this and I enjoyed it! It has a pleasant texture to it that's like eating grilled bell peppers with your tacos. Washed all this down with Horchata (sweet rice drink) and we were on our merry way a happy customer. Oh we chose an outdoor dining table outside which is a plus since we have a dog. Even our dog got a taste of the tacos meat and he approved!
