Modern Taco Las Vegas Reviews
Love the food here, for the most part I always get food to go and use the drive through so I'm not sure about eating there and seating. The burritos are great and they travel well when driving the food home. I've had the tacos and the meats great just like the burrito but due to the juices the tortilla won't make it too far of a drive without getting soaked and becoming useless. Overall great flavor and worth the trip
We were visiting from Out of town and oday was our first time visiting this place. Oh my goodness The food was so flavorful. My son and I shared the plate of alambres and it was enough for the both of us. The carne asada was also very flavorful and rich. We will be back here every time we come to Vegas. They accept cash and ATM cards.
This is a fun place. And the food was very good too. The sign says they are open 24/7/365 however this is not true. They were closed Christmas Eve around 6pm or so. The decorations for Christmas were certainly a lure to come see There's a drive thru and a walk up window. There's plenty of inside and outside seating. Being so close to the airport, if you had a decent layover, it'd be worth finding your way here to get some good tacos. I was unsure which taco sauce was supposed to be mild versus hot because the orange and the green were pretty spicy, both. After trying three different taco places in Vegas/Paradise area, this one is number 1 so far.
This my second time eating here! This place has delicious food plenty of asada meat and chicken. Burritos are nice in size and tasty. They have plenty of seating and and a place to sit inside restaurant style or you can go through the drive thru or walk up. The staf is friendly and polite! I will definitely make this this my go to taco place!
Taqueria Casa del Sabor on Palo Verde Road, near Harry Reid International Airport, in Las Vegas, is an outstanding Mexican restaurant/food truck-hybrid eatery with equally outstanding atmosphere, amazing and vast decor, complete with inside and outside seating spread across its campus with appropriately loud Spanish language music played everywhere adding to the buzz. Both drive-thru and walk-up windows are available. If walk-up, they will find you no matter where you sit and deliver your order. This place is great for families or any size parties. There are large-size games to play (for example, chess and jenga) suitable for all ages. It’s kept very clean here. Restrooms are inside. The food is excellent; maybe the largest and tastiest burrito I’ve ever experienced. Located next door to Best Western McCarran Inn; if you are staying there go no further and head right over. You won’t regret it. Highly recommended.
The whole style of this place I quite like, it was always busy when we passed by so clearly people around frequent this place. For me, the tacos was perfectly good, nothing really negative to say, but the star of the show in my opinion was the quesadillas. Really good portion size and very filling, really enjoyed it.
Corner location drive thru they also have a little window you can order. They do have sitting areas that are shaded. They are open 24/7 We went on 08/16/2025 @ 11:30 am We ordered through the window to eat there. We ordered: Torta de asada Asada burrito Lemon agua fresca It came with 4 salsas green and red (chipotle), limes, cilantro and onions. They charge for ice, which we thought it was odd specially ordering $30 worth of food for 2 people and already having a cup. We just wanted ice….. The staff was nice, ice factor was odd. Food was made to order and it was sooo good! Really the food was sooo good and large portions! Probably biggest torta I have ever encountered yum! The burrito was huge would definitely comeback and bring my own ice 😉
This taco spot was amazing, the food is so authentic and flavourful, felt like I was back in Mexico! First time to this spot and for sure will be going back, food was served fast! And the horchata was to die for, everything they do is just perfect! Also it was super clean inside and out, this place definitely takes pride in what they do!
Date of Visit: 15 June 2025 at 20:00 Rating: ★★★★★ We had a great experience! Marlen as well as Omar served us and they were absolutely amazing – hands down the best service we’ve had in a long time. We ordered the veggie, chicken, and steak burritos, and all of them were delicious – great quality and very generous portions. The hot sauce had just the right kick and added so much flavor. Just a heads-up: they only accept cash or debit, but honestly, it’s a small thing considering how excellent the food and service were. We’ll definitely be coming back!
We ordered the chicken and the Birria Tacos. The chicken was average. But the Birria was next level. It’s a bit off the strip but worth visiting. The green salsa was spicy and went well with everything. The service was fast but the lady was hard to understand. The atmosphere was good and the outdoor seating area has a huge chess board, some bean bag throwing and other games to play. Open 24/7
The food is excellent and actually fantastic for the price. However nachos without beer just doesn't do it for me even though the nachos were among the best I've ever had. The fact that they don't accept credit cards is also a downer. Don't tell anyone, but I grabbed a Modelo at the Arco next door 🫣. Also we walked over from our hotel and couldn't figure out how to get an order in because it appeared to be only a drive-through but, with help from friendly locals, we figured it out eventually 😇. Highly recommend (with above caveats).
I am doing a taco run this late at night Burp! Love this place. My go to place. Music, outdoor seating. The Jamaica drink is SPOT on. The tacos are good. Management: pleeeeeeeease, por favor, replace the STYROFOAM plates with paper or eco friendly plates. Listen the cost per plate will go up by 10 cents, increase the cost of all items by 5 cents. Styrofoam is bad for environment and health. Gracias Love the music.
First time I eating there yesterday. Tacos were 10/10 so delicious I also ordered a sandwich to have for later and unfortunately was quite disappointed. I started eating it today to find two huge plastic pieces in my sandwich after only a couple bites definitely not enjoyable after biting into plastic pieces
