El Tacontento II

Honestly the best tacos here in vegas. The corn tortillas are hand made, the meat is well seasoned, and the salsa bar absolutely slaps. The only tacos that come close to the ones I've had in SoCal.

Easily some of the best queso birria tacos I've found in Vegas. Fresh made tortillas that were crispy, incredibly tender birria and totally stuffed with cheese. This place is tucked away in back of a gas station and hits the mark on quality hole in the wall Mexican food.I also tried a couple of street tacos with Al pastor and chorizo. The chorizo was especially great; crispy and flavorful. There was one woman working who was friendly and took care of everything from taking orders to cooking the food, and everything came out perfect.

The best quesadilla birria tacos on this side of Las Vegas the staff is super friendly and I go so much they already know my order.

I found this place on a whim. I used to live in the neighborhood years back and back then this used to be a pizza spot. Now? It's the location to quite possibly the best tasting tacos in Las Vegas! Yeah, I said what I said and I don't care how many Tacos El Gordo fans have a problem with my claim.Now, there's a saying that goes: the sketchier the neighborhood the better the tacos and this place is no exception. This particular shop is located off of Jones Blvd and Vegas Dr inside a gas station. For the uninitiated, you might want to visit during the day, but for people who grew up in el barrio, just show up whenever you're hungry because not only is the food amazing the service is top notch!It might be a gas station taqueria but the corner of the store this place is in is always clean and every time I've visited has had the scent of fabuloso, so you know they mop frequently. The tortillas are advertised as being hand made and the authentic taste backs it up. I had their huaraches, tortas and tacos. I've tried their carne asada and their lengua and I can't wait to go back again and try the rest of their menu.

I've been a fan of El Tacontento since their street vendor location on N. Rancho so it was cool to find their second location towards the back of the store of a gas station.Clean area, pleasant service, and price point is just right, considering the generous portions, handmade tortillas, and made-from-scratch(not powder mix) agua frescas. Seems like they have more items available at this location, so there's definitely something for everyone. We shared a Gringa de Al Pastor and a Huarache de Asada which were both delicious, and the Agua de Jamaica was a perfect compliment to our meal. Stop in if you're ever in the area...casual setting, great grab and go option, and won't leave you with buyer's remorse. ALOHA!!!Shaka Meter: \uuu/ \uuu/ \uuu/ \uuu/ \uuu/ 5

Today was in the mood for tacos. But who isn't in the mood for tacos. Ive seen this restaurant a few times and knew it was time to try it. It is located in a petrol station but don't let that fool you. I ordered carne asada, pastor, birria, frijoles, and arroz, horchata, and pepino.The food did not disappoint at all. The birria and pastor had such a wonderful flavor. My fav drink pepino was amazing. There are a couple of tables and chairs, plus a television. One thing I really liked was the condiment bar was enclosed. It wasn't exposed how most are. This has an open and close lid that keeps everything very cold. Location is Jones/ Vegas- ample parking

Literal hole in the wall (in a gas station) and the food was SO MUCH better than other specialty birria places. DEFINITELY coming back. Their tacos and salsa had so much flavor and were really filling. Oh and they don't use cloves (clavos de olor) in their birria - which to me is great because other places use a ton of cloves and it ruins the birria for me. Soooooo worth it! And the staff was helpful and really nice.

The taste man oh man it's fire! And the guacsauce amazing so happy I ran out of gas that day! I'll be there for breakfast today! The breakfast burrito talk about chorizo hashbrown and queso all wrapped up in a home made tortilla uuuffff!

The quesabirria tacos were awesome, crispy and stuffed full of cheese and birria. The huarache with carne asada was also really good. It's in a gas station but it's very clean and I had no problem getting a table for a Wednesday lunch. Food came out quickly and was piping hot.

I had the Birria tacos and quesabirria. AMAZING!! So flavorful and I love their green salsa! I'm obsessed. Don't let it being in a gas station turn you off. The food and service is good and it's clean!
