It always bums me out when something super amazing doesn't have any reviews telling the whole nation of its wonderfulness, but then again that makes it MY little secret. Well, Yelp, I'm going to share that secret with you. It's a little hole in the wall taco joint called Asada's on Fremont Street.They have a sign out front boasting of their daily special which is what drew us in. When we were there, it was $6 for 3 chicken tacos and a drink. My hubby decided to get that. However, I am ridiculously addicted to carnitas and had to try theirs. I ended up with two carnitas tacos on corn tortillas. They put some onion/cilantro mix and your choice of salsa on top. It looked perfect as is and that was how they "recommended" it, so I skipped the cheese and sour cream. Oh.my....I felt like I died and went to taco heaven. The onion/cilantro mix was sooo good and were some of the best raw onions I ever tasted. I'm going to have to try to re-create that when I get home. Their carnitas were also piping hot (temp wise) and it tasted like they'd been soaking the pork for days. So good! For 5 tacos and a bottle of water, it only cost us $13. I can't even get something that cheap at home, let alone on vacation. If you're going to be near/on Fremont, try one of their tacos and I'm sure you will fall in insta-love too.

Every time I visit Vegas, my first stop after my friend picks me up from the airport is Tacos El Gordo, my gold standard for authentic Mexican excellence. The next day I was still looking for a fix of tongue, and decided to give Asada's a shot. While it wasn't bad, it simply didn't hold a candle to Tacos El Gordo. I stopped in mid-afternoon to a mostly empty restaurant. I decided to go for a burrito with lengua. The burrito was a bit sloppy - it was rolled a bit loose and the lengua was on the bland side. The hot sauce on the table was really good and helped add some much needed flavor to the burrito.The location itself is a classic "hole in the wall" joint - but those places usually make the best Mexican food. If I were on Fremont St. and had a huge craving for Mexican, I'd give them another try, but there's MUCH better Mexican food to be had in Las Vegas.

I'm just gonna have to stop and call this place out.First, I typically love $2 tacos. I'm all about that. But this place is scum.We waited in line for 20 minutes. Not because the guy was helping another customer...no he was replacing cheese that didn't need to be replaced. It was like half full. Second, after he replaced the cheese he stuck some in his mouth and started eating it with his gloved hands. After the cheese he decided the ketchup bottles needed replacing too. All the while me and everyone behind me are watching this guy and getting more and more pissed.After we called him out on that to change his gloves after sticking it in his mouth he decided to be a jerk and stick the hottest salsa they have on our tacos. I asked for mild, not suicide hot. Couldn't even eat my damn taco.I am so pissed.

I am sure there are better Mexican spots in Vegas but if you are staying on Fremont the convenience (in downtown Fremont and open late) is unbeatable and the food was honestly delicious. I had 2 burritos a night during my trip.I got the steak burrito and pastor burrito with Spanish rice and all the fixins(onion cilantro, hot salsa, cheese sour cream, pinto beans). the meat was tender and flavorful and all of the fixins were tasty complemented the burrito. I also tried the chicken but wasn't as big of a fan. Will be back next time I am in Vegas!

Very pricey for what you get, but it's tasty. Service is slow, partly due to the fact that the customers in front of you are drunk.

The food is pretty decent. I had a chicken burrito bowl which did remind me a bit of chipotle but it definitely doesn't compare. Don't get me wrong it was good but chipotle is way better

When they say hot it's hot. I'm sure some eat hotter but this is not tamed down. Carne Asada fries were yummo!

We stopped here to soak up some booze. It certainly did the trick. The chicken taco was yummy as well as the black beans. The black beans had onions and some seasonings. Decently priced and quick service. The only down fall is the lack of seating. There could be more along the wall. We awkwardly ate our tacos on the ledge where you order. Lol it did the trick!

The food really SUCKS. I agree with reviewer Bee B. I ordered 2 tacos, very small and no taste. I payed $5 for garbage food.
