Tacos El Gordo
No matter what the hour, you can find a taco in Las Vegas at Tacos El Gordo/Gallo. This is not a place you’d go to hang out and have drinks with friends while exchanging the day’s gossip…unless you’re some seedy degenerate. Some even say that their tacos are only great after a really drunken night. Others (myself included) think their tacos come pretty close to a traditional cart vendor’s tacos in Mexico. Taco Tuesday used to mean $2 tacos, HOWEVER rumor has it that they’ve discontinued this. When I called to verify, they just kept saying “yes” to anything I asked lol. IMO, despite its façade and red plastic trays, it’s still worthy of the Taco Tuesday list! My favorite taco: the traditional carne asada. YUM!
Abuela’s Tacos
Homemade
tortillas, barbacoa, asada, and some of the best
fish tacos in Vegas (or that I’ve ever had), make Abuela’s Tacos a
traditionally great Mexican joint. This is another restaurant that you wouldn’t
wear your best bobbles to and/or meet up with friends, HOWEVER, what you WOULD
do is take advantage of their Taco Tuesday specials - $2 for any taco! The
barbacoa is loved by all (except me – I can’t do cow face) and the carne asada
is tender and nearly fatless! If you’re not sure what to order, Abuela herself
will be there to make sure you love your meal!

$5 shots of tequila and $7 margaritas! Oh wait, this blog is dedicated to tacos ;) Rockhouse celebrates Taco Tuesday all day long with 10 different types of tacos starting at $1.50 each. Give their shrimp tacos a try; you might be tricked into thinking you’re near the coast!
Hussong’s Cantina
Finding a taco in Las Vegas is like finding a doctor in a physician’s office; there’s no shortage of them but finding a GOOD ONE is a little more challenging! Hussong’s is a feel good bar with great eats and one of the best margaritas I’ve ever had! Housed at the Shoppes of Mandalay Bay, it’s well worth the walk to get there. $1 beer and 50 cent tacos for locals… pricing isn’t much more for you out-of-towners. They don’t have a publicized Taco Tuesday but they have a following that hangs out there on Tuesday nights, partying and chowing some tacos! Hussong's has an exceptional staff!
