Tacos El Gordo · The Strip
Tijuana-style adobada and suadero on handmade tortillas, the crown jewel of Vegas tacos.
Tacos El Pastor · Las Vegas
A northern-Mexico chef's top-secret marinade makes the al pastor tender and unbeatable.
Chicali Tacos · Southwest
A Mexicali-style taqueria that grew from catering into a brick-and-mortar, letting the mesquite grill do the talking with carne asada, chicken, and al pastor folded into corn or flour tortillas. It landed on Yelp's national list of 100 taco spots.
Aroma Latin American Cocina · Chinatown
A Latin American kitchen from James Beard finalist chef Steve Kestler, now in Chinatown, whose tacos run from pork belly with pickled onions to shrimp with pineapple pico, chicken tinga, and a quesabirria finished with house queso fundido after its move from Henderson to Spring Mountain Road.
