Food was great i had ceviche very good, My wife had the aguachiles and the shrimp was a little over cooked in lemon other then that it was good, chicharrones snak were great. Now on the ortherhand service was poor thats why i gave it a 4 star 10 minutes to be seated with only a few customer on tables, after they brought our food we dint see the waiter againt until they brought us the ticket, i had to be getting up to asked them for condiments.

First time eating here, my wife and I really enjoyed the food. We first tried the Chingo Chicharrones. They are hot and crisp, arriving popping at the table. The portion is huge (see photo). I would have liked some guac with them as the pico, since the pico, while nice, isn’t enough for all the chicharrones. Took half home, and they were great the next day. But the star here is the fish. We had the Ahi Plate, which was amazing! It’s very fresh and tasty Ahi Tuna, avocado, pico, pineapple (which really works so well here), and two great sauces: Habanero Mayo and a spicy honey sauce. Wow, this is a great dish! They serve very good horchata, too. Our server, Sabrina, was very attentive. Sat in the lovely patio with our three dogs, so points for being very dog-friendly. We will go back and try

This was my first time going to Tacos & Shell-ah's for brunch and they did not disappoint! I've been to most spots in Las Cruces for brunch and Tacos & Shell-ah's may have the best Chilaquiles in Las Cruces. My table tried several items: Dulce de Leche Pancakes, various chilaquiles, and the Cafe de Olla. Everything was excellent! Service was great, food was delicious, and everything was reasonably priced. I absolutely see myself going back for brunch very soon!

Tacos were fantastic and hit the spot! I opted for the Carne Asada and Chicken Tacos, and they were delicious. They also have some seafood options that looked great, so I highly recommend trying them as well.
