    For anyone unfamiliar, I’d say that Tacos El Gordo alone is worth making the trip to Las Vegas. Everything is amazing. My faves are al pastor on sopes, but you seriously can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Don’t panic if the line is around the corner; it moves quickly. Absolutely get a michelada while in line and the michelada woman is selling.

    Hey I went there recently! Though I’ve had better random truck tacos in SoCal, this place is pretty legit and a good find for Vegas. I just wish it had a salsa bar. Would definitely come back if I’m in the area.

      They’ve sucked all the fun out of Las Vegas with their money grubber hands but they still have good restaurants

    I love chorizo in scrambled egg but not so much on its own. I feel the egg mellows it perfectly and it zazzs up the eggs perfectly.

    Any other must-eat spots in Vegas anyone can recommend? I’m going soon and other than the Hash House A Go-Go I didn’t have any “we have to go here” spots lined up yet.

      The Reuben at Greenburg’s Deli in NYNY is always on my must-have list. Pretty much anything at Block 16, China Poblano (Mexican-Chinese cuisine), and Momofuku in The Cosmopolitan. If you like tasting menus, Partage is excellent. And if you like tiki bars, Frankie’s (classic, divey) and Golden Tiki (next to Partage) are both great experiences.

      Across the street there’s a pizza place in Fontainebleau. You can try the pepperoni proper it’s expensive like $15 for a slice of pizza but it was really good. I wouldn’t go there unless you get all the toppings

      In New York New York casino there a sandwich place called Greenberg deli and have damn good pastrami sandwiches

    El Gordon wasn’t all that. Terrible parking first off. Second the different lines you form for certain meats. Asada in this line, chorizo in that line. You spend more time in line for different tacos than actually eating.
