I ate there the same year weed was legalized in nevada and walked by it on the way to the dispensary with my group for EDC. Seriously some of the best ive ever had, so happy it stays open late so when you are drunk or stoned it always hits the spot
I don't see myself venturing to the Strip much when I move to Las Vegas, especially since other videos tell me how bad the parking is but this place looks awesome. Nothing beats hand made tortillas. One of my favorite spots in Sparks does the same thing and I dream about those tortillas. So, I guess I'll take an Uber out there or something to experience Tacos El Gordo for myself!
I agree with this whole video, I always go when I visit Las Vegas. You are right it can be intimidating not know how to order and standing in multiple long line but when you finally sit down with everything it’s worth it
Great video and looks amazing George! Been wanting to try tacos El Gordo for the longest time... Had a chance to go about 25 months ago, but...well, you know the rest 😉😆
Looks amazing. Thanks for sharing. I never would have understood how to order so that was very helpful! Funny if you possibly just took a bag of their limes from the fridge haha.
Yay! I love taco❤️❤️❤️ Let get it 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻 Your videos so much fun !!!!! I learn a lot by watching your videos 🙏🏻 Thankyou for the amazing video ❤️🔥
I'm choosing the Speakeasy at the Mob Museum. Going down the stairs would definitely creep me out - liked the atmosphere down below - pic's on the wall gave me a Mobster vibe which is a time in history that intrigues me. Just from all the reading I've done, podcasts, video's, Vegas appeared to be a whole lot more fun when the mob ran it. They depended on vacationers to spend a lot of money thus treating them much better than today. Real informative vlog George - I know where I'm going on my next trip!
the best tacos EVER!!!! I absoutely LOVE the adobada fries with a side of the special green sauce for the adobada (the creamy one), it's the best bang for your buck, the fries are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The flavor of the pork is to die for
I went to the Charleston location and initially I was confused by the line system. Then I thought you need to bring friends to stand in the different lines if you want to try various meats, etc. Genius move by them!
I often think it's by design but having ran a food truck that sells tacos before I can understand how they would have different stations for different meats so maybe it was by accident lol still kind of annoying if you're by yourself
I have never had tacos el pastor but have always wanted to try. Your right about being intimidating but your video has given me some confidence to give it a try. I may have to watch it a few more times to get the whole line ordering situation down.
Another great vid bro. Going back to vegas again next week and Im def hitting up Tacos El Gordo 👊🏼 Gon slam atleast 8 tacos after a night of heavy drinking 🙌
Taco El Gordo is good and convenient- late night on a Friday or Saturday it's a lively, party atmosphere. Tacos are very good, Tortillas made by hand, the meat carvers are pros, very welcoming atmosphere. For a quieter, off strip taco, have you tried Taco Y Taco? I prefer their Al Pastor. And no taco stop is complete without Harchata. Great video!
As a former local I had only tried El Gordo on Charleston Ave. On my visit last week I did the taco challenge. Ate at El Gordo, had 4 pastor tacos, amazing as I remember them. It was easy to order as the signs are bright and easy to read. Only negative for El Gordo was they do not have Mexican Coke. Following night tried Tacos Al Pastor which were not bad but not as good as Gordo. The spice they use seemed a little strong for the meat, and overwhelmed other parts of the taco, salsa etc. Plus for Tacos Pastor was they sell Mexican coke. They use TV screens for their signs directing you where to order. Multiple screens were dimmed and hard to read, so I was not sure where to order pastor, but eventually figured it out after the workers were done ignoring me. Cannot wait for more Gordo pastor tacos, closest to me is San Diego Gordo but doubt I will be in that area, will have to wait till October :( Nice work Jorge!!
Hi Jorge..., I heard through the grapevine on TH-cam (3/8/2022)... that the prices have gone up on ( all ) food, and the cooks were told... to put less meat/beef on their tacos and dishes... However..., while inline ( ask the cook nicely ) for more meat/beef, they normally will work with you... * Excellent video and very informative, and thank you for sharing the video... "Tacos El Gordo" is a must-stop and enjoy the food... Mike in Montana :)
I definitely like Tacos El Pastor better. I went over there mostly because they have chicken and it was amazing so now we go there every time we visit!
What is wrong with the system is that if there's a lot of people once you get your tacos and then get in the pay line for your tacos by the time you sit down to actually enjoy your tacos they're cold.
1:21 Wait a minute! The line usually goes out and all way around and to make one order I have to stand new line over and over until I get what I wanted?! How does it even work?! You stand in one line then you need to go to another line which is filled up from people coming from line outside. Do you squeeze yourself cutting cutting people in second line to order or you walk out with ordered food on street to stand new line? This is a mess. How does it?! I don't want to spend 2 hours in lines.
The funny thing is this place “ Tacos El Gordo” is a Tijuana based taco shop and in Tijuana “Tacos El Gordo” is the worst place to go eat at the tacos suck have no flavor but the good thing is there is no line that’s bad they are
I go to this place out by me in illinois. It's super cheap and so gooood. They put so much meat on them it's crazy. It's like 3* the amount you normally would get and they cover it entirely in lettuce, onion, cilantro, tomato, cheese and sour cream. So much that you can't even find the damn tacos. You have to dig to find them LMAO. I honestly don't even understand how they make a profit off of it, because they also give you like 3 sauces for each taco. So you get 9 big cups of sauce for 3 tacos. My girlfriend doesn't like it because she said there's too much meat. Not me though... you can order extra tortillas to make more tacos.
1:45 What part of bull is this? Why he pulled something like skin from it? 1:32 Beef gut. beef eyes?! This is not a beef. Do they have a beef poop if they sell a beef guts?
Para mí no son la gran cosa los tacos de el gordo yo fui y después de esperar mucho tiempo me dieron los tacos con mucha manteca y quemada la carne si para mí es pura fama que agarro porque la comida he probado tacos en otro lugares y son mejores que los del gordo
I don't know what you people are talking about, this are the worst tacos I ever had, I will never eat there again. I had the tripa tacos and they tasted like dirt. My son had the molleja and they were nothing but meat fat. Very disorganized. You waste more time in line ordering than eating.
Tacos el gordo has never been the best tacos in Vegas tacos el gordo are the nastiest tacos in Las Vegas I don't eat taco bell but I prefer them then tacos El gordo they are just plain tacos with no flavor at all
They are the worst tacos I have ever eaten. The meat was raw, the tortillas too. I think that you the promotion that you give them because they pay you
HAVE YOU BEEN TO THIS ICONIC TACO SHOP? 🌮🔥
SI SENOR....

Just stand in the line of your meat of choice order your food then make your way to the register to pay for your tray :)

Cooked over charcoal, homemade corn tortillas and the carne asada tacos are Bomb...🌮😍

I went to one in San Diego. Yeah, it was good, but so is the taco shop near my supermarket.

Always a must in Vegas!!! Delicious authentic tacos & great price!
Yes, I'm glad they stayed true to having low prices even on the strip

Tried pastor, asada and chorizo, pretty good to be honest. This place is always packed! Crazy.
Absolutely love Tacos El Gordo except I always go to the one on Charleston cuz this location always has a long line lmao
I’m town this weekend from Chicago (for UFC) and came here. This place is 🔥 🔥 🔥!!!! Hell yeah!!!!
Yes!
They're the best lengua I've ever had!!
See you this weekend brotha
Thiss weekend G! What are you doing Sunday?

THAT LOOKED LIKE YOUR TWIN BROTHER MAKING THE TACOS DE LE LENGUE...I LOVE THE TACOS MULETAS DE PASTOR
HAHAHA i kinda felt that same way too man 😂
mmmmm. he makes it look so good
He doess huh 👌🏼
Yes tacos el gordo is the best in las vegas nevada
Vamos a comer!
Cuantos? 🌮
Solomente Cinco, soy muy gordo.
Do they sell Crunch wrap Supreme? I didn't see it on menu in this video, but it's in every Taco restaurant in California.
I always mean to try tacos el Gordo but still haven't. Everytime I've been in the area, the line is crazy, which says something in and of itself
Give yourself like a good hour or so to spare and try it next time! So worth it!
Love tacos el gordo!!!!

George how many different kinds of meat did you eat? I got the beef tongue 🤮 & pork. Any other kinds?
👍
Tacos el pastor is my new favorite
Bro i gotta tryy
Donde se encuentran esos tacos 🌮 direccion
@@sergiozamorano6413 estan a lado de tacos el gordo
Bro, theres no queso fresco or avocado in them...nothing better than tacos from Brownsville, Tx
Tu comiendo tacos i yo comiendo sopa pa😭
Do you think one location is the best or all locations deliver the same results?
The Strip and Charleston location are always super busy and the one up north is a little better but still. all pretty much are the same thing
Bruh, it’s still packed even with everyone at EDC lol. Also, it gives me anxiety 🙆🏼♀️
1:45 What part of bull is this? Why he pulled something like skin from it? 1:32 Beef gut. beef eyes?! This is not a beef. Do they have a beef poop if they sell a beef guts?
Why can't they have a system like actual stands in Mexico, or like in some sushi restaurants?
I’m 100% gonna pass on the beef eyes but I can easily eat al pastor every single day for the rest of my life 🔥
YOU DIDN'T ASK FOR THE GRILLED ONIONS AND GRILLED JALAPENO'S ON THE SIDE????
I'm new school bro! I just go raw with salsass hahap
LOl!! That's good to know. I just left Vegas, but the next time I come, I'll definitely stop in.
I'm surprised they have enough buyers of tongue, brains, and eyes to dedicate a line to them.
so if want three different tacos i have to line up three times... what a strange system
I was there last weekend, they jacked up the prices and staff is very rude.
How Do u eat and drink like that and stay fit??? I paid $10k to get lipo but still watch my figure 😂
Shoot man! for 10K I'll make sure you don't miss your workouts with me! haha I stay relatively active fitness wise
Dude has to get a mic! I like the content but the audio is rough at times
Sad part is that i had a mic but it sucked lol
decian tu taqueria no va pegar
The tacos are loaded but, the chile sauce needs improvement.
As a Mexican these are probably the worst tacos I’ve had
The line is always super long
There damn near $4 a taco
If anyone thinks this tacos taste great, you clearly haven't taste great tacos.
I agree I didn't think they were that great
Sinceramente en las vegas sy mejores y mas baratos
The Tacos El Gordo in San Diego sucks.
Para mí no son la gran cosa los tacos de el gordo yo fui y después de esperar mucho tiempo me dieron los tacos con mucha manteca y quemada la carne si para mí es pura fama que agarro porque la comida he probado tacos en otro lugares y son mejores que los del gordo
