For anyone unfamiliar, I'd say that Tacos El Gordo alone is worth making the trip to Las Vegas. Everything is amazing. My faves are al pastor on sopes, but you seriously can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Don't panic if the line is around the corner; it moves quickly. Absolutely get a michelada while in line and the michelada woman is selling.

Hey I went there recently! Though I’ve had better random truck tacos in SoCal, this place is pretty legit and a good find for Vegas. I just wish it had a salsa bar. Would definitely come back if I’m in the area.
Looks absolutely delicious!
Was just there last weekend by chance. It was great, glad we got to stop. Had no idea is was famous.
Any other must-eat spots in Vegas anyone can recommend? I'm going soon and other than the Hash House A Go-Go I didn't have any "we have to go here" spots lined up yet.
Necro'ing this to say thanks for the heads-up on this place - my wife and I bee-lined it here when we got to Vegas and everything was ludicrously good!
I love chorizo in scrambled egg but not so much on its own. I feel the egg mellows it perfectly and it zazzs up the eggs perfectly.
My standard orders are cabeza and abobada or al pastor. Whatever the taco shop has listed
I didn’t realize anyone went to Vegas these days.
El Gordon wasn't all that. Terrible parking first off. Second the different lines you form for certain meats. Asada in this line, chorizo in that line. You spend more time in line for different tacos than actually eating.
