Tacos El Compita #2

Hands down, the burrito here is amazing! But let's be real, the salsa is where it's at - it's seriously great! Perfect combo!

Absolutely exceptional. I read about this place on Reddit as I was looking for good authentic tacos and this company was recommended. There are a few around town and we stopped at this one because it was most convenient for us after a hike in red rock canyon. We order tacos (in order of most deliciousness: asado, chicken, and El pastor competing for first place and carnitas last personally I wouldn’t order them) all without onion. We also tried one quesabirra which was fantastic but the tacos still win. We washed it all down with Jurritos lime and pineapple, pineapple hands down the best. Service is fine, they are warm and you can order in English but Spanish is better. Cash is king here. The atmosphere is basic, cantina style, which I think is perfect. Absolute must stop if in vegas.

Came in ,and tried the quesadillas ,they were pretty good ,we tried the asada,birria and the pastor and they were delicious. The green sauce is very good not spicy at all and the red is pretty spicy. The service is great.

Food/Taste/Flavor: 4/5 - Platos de 5 tacos (#2) and Compita Nachos with Birria. The tacos were delicious overall! The cabeza was tender and flavorful but the tripas were boiled and a bit queasy as they weren't cleaned well. The nachos were generous in serving size but the shredded beef was inconsistent as some pieces were quite dry. Service: 2/5 - not sure if language issue or the cashier just didn't care. After we ordered but before we paid, I realized that the cost was higher than expected and was trying to figure out why it's almost a $2.50 difference. We finally figured out that we ordered a Birria Nachos (#10) but he rung it up as a Compita Nacho (#18) with Birria (shredded beef). We tried to explain that we wanted number 10 and showed him a picture of the menu. He walked around the

price and menu update: Plus 3% credit card fee Update Jan 2024: After having endless Taco in california for a couple of weeks, from taco truck, taco stand and off grid restaurants, Now I can tell the difference the tenderness of the meat & lack of flavor, the birria consome is not the same, even the red/green sauce are not as tasty as I first remember. Update Nov 2024- 11 months after the last time we ordered from here. Now it’s official it’s out of my list unfortunately. Food portion has drastically reduced by half at least! Carne asada barely any fries and meat and their burrito are half of the size from the original pictures I’ve taken from this review years ago.
