Roberto’s Taco Shop

Should be called reliable Roberts because they’re all 24 and everywhere. Some are not as good but only slightly. The girl that rang me up was not the most personable but not rude either, she looked stressed and everyone has their day (or month ;). I like the «go 2 Carne Asada burrito, recommend the Carne Asada nachos, or when I’m feeling like a baller the chimichanga! Hubbahubba!)

The food is always fantastic and likely always will be. But this particular location likes to skimp on portion sizes and consistently gets my order incorrect. Hopefully this time everything goes well!

It’s a great place open late. Love their specials and reasonable prices.

I’ve been eating Mexican food for 15 years and I just ate the thinnest burrito I’ve ever had in my life. To add to the insult, what little girth it had was due to massive amounts of lettuce – it was about 80% lettuce and 20% fish. When I was done, I felt like I didn’t even eat at all. Not to mention that at one point it had a weird bitter taste, enough to spit out what I was chewing – maybe I just munched on a cockroach. This place has gone way downhill since that Mexican-​version-​of-​Super-​Mario looking dude stopped overseeing the place. Along with my previous experiences with this place, this just sealed the deal – I am never going back here again. I highly recommend seeking an alternative.

If you decide to eat at Roberto’s Mexican Food, stay away from the Milanesa Torta. It’s basically a thin leathery breaded beef steak that tastes like old burnt beef jerky that may have been refried and then microwaved about 5 times. YUCK! And a $ 1.10 extra if I want sour cream added on my nacho chips? C’mon!

I love this restaurant even though it is fast food… the food is always excellent everything I’ve always had I have loved better than most restaurants

Always the freshest & tastiest ‘fast food’ for Mexican food! Got 4 99 cent chicken tacos– 2 bean & cheese burritos & a bit more… Everything tastes great! Everything is in the bag-​they never forget! This location is the BEST one in town!!!

I have passed by this place many times, and finally decided I wanted to eat a carne asada burrito. I’m used to eating burritos in California, where the standard carne asada comes with mexican rice inside. Yeah… I’m not a traditionalist.
I found out here as well (for the second time) that you need to ask for rice and pay extra for it. That’s fine and dandy, I can live with it. But, the carne asada meat itself was meh, and the burrito in general was an OK for me. I wasn’t too impressed. I also thought it’d be a hole-​in-​the-​wall, which is what I was hoping for, but it’s actually set-​up like a fast food chain store! That was unexpected.
Prices are way too high for what they serve. The salsa bar was okay as well.

I remember always going to Roberto’s Taco shop off of Nellis Blvd when it was attached to a gas station. Really good stuff and I even had friend’s willing to drive all the way from The Strip just to get to it because it was so delicious. Can’t say the same for this location.
The food was very filling but not very appetizing. The carne asada was a bit bland and though the al pastor was better, it could still use a bit more seasoning. The best thing the al pastor had going for it was the portion… the taco is stuffed with meat.
I also visited another location last year where the food was a little better than this location but didn’t meet the standards of the Roberto’s I mentioned early on. Therefore this leaves me to believe Roberto’s is hit or miss depending on the location you visit.
Dinner 12÷5÷2015

This location is hit or miss.
I’ve been here several times; the food is always good, and that’s not the issue. The issue is what makes it into your bag. If I can give one piece of advice it’s to fricken check your bag, especially if you have more than one plate of food in there!
It’s very frustrating to order something as big and expensive as Carne Asada nachos and receive 2 tacos, instead. That sucks. How does that even happen, if the rest of the bag had the right things? I hate to even have to look through my things, because I feel like a dick, but now I have to.

I like Robertos Taco off of lake mead better than this one. I normally get the shrimp burritos, the shrimp burrito here is like half the size of the other Robertos.

This is the 3^rd Mexican place we’ve been to in the valley so far. Tacos Tijuana on the east side was as authentic as could be (they had sesos, bucha, tripas, lengua, etc), cheap (just north of $ 20 for the three of us), and made a killer salsa. That place was a definite 5 star joint.
Habaneros Taco Grill just down the street had a wider selection, generous portions, a salsa bar with three salsas, pico, radishes, limes and the requisite pickled carrots. Nothing stood out but neither did anything suck. It was very satisfying and we left full and happy.
Roberto’s pickled carrots were much better than Habaneros’ but that’s about it when it comes to saying the former was better than the latter. Roberto’s should’ve been good but something was strangely lacking. There was no wow or even an oo-​o. The ambiance was a bit off, too. Maybe because it was kinda cold inside or maybe it was the way-​too-​big cutout photo on the wall of the not-​so-​happy-​to-​be-​celebrating-​50-​damn-​years elderly Latino couple staring at you while you tried to enjoy your meal. Something just wasn’t right about the place.
People kept streaming in one by one but nobody but us stayed to dine in. It was all take out. Maybe nobody wanted to stick around to actually eat there with Mr. and Mrs. Roberto staring at you without a smile on. If I had been in business for 50 years with multiple locations, I think I’d have a smile as big as a hard shell taco stuffed with all the fixings.
Back to the food. It was just ok. We went there because of the ratings, felt like we got suckered in, and had to go somewhere else to get a real fix. We don’t need to go back, unless it’s to steal the pickled carrots to go along something from Habaneros.

Roberto’s doesn’t hold up in comparison to the other places that have opened up or the food trucks around Vegas. Just not a fan of fast mex food. There are other places up and about. Old school Mex Food and taco shops. Even Taco y Taco play music and have liquor and better tasting items in my opinion. Chipotle, Zabas and the other fast casual «Mexican» grills taste better and don’t make me run for the bathroom or make me feel too full or heavy.
The employees aren’t terrible, though they speak English well enough or perfectly, the service can only go so far. Roberto’s just feels like an old outdated restaurant to me. It seems cheap but carne asada fries with a drink is still about $ 10-​$ 11 dollars, and you can spend just 9 at Chipotle and feel satisfied but not grossly packed in your stomach. All in all i can’t say i’ll be wanting to come back to Roberto’s.

I’ve been going to this place since 2001, since I’m new to Unilocal let’s funky with it.
Robertos is disgustingly delicious! You see the 5 pound carne asada fries before your eyes and you just feel happy. You take that first bite. You let it sit in your mouth, it’s so goooooood, you feel like you’re getting hit by a truck! That’s how flavorful it really is! Indeed pleasurable :)

The BEST thing about Roberto’s is they are open late (this one is 24hrs!), and it is an easy place to grab some food after going to the clubs or bars.
The bad thing about Roberto’s is the food is barely mediocre.
The quesadillas are soggy, the tacos & burritos are meh.
But the service is always great! Service with a smile, no matter which Roberto’s I have gone to in Las Vegas.

This place was our choice for dinner, it started off with walking through the door the place was clean and very professional.
We placed our order with the gentlemen at the front and he promptly submitted our order as we paid. The food was amazing and very good value, the value does match the quality. I would recommend and return to this establishment in the future!

I was in the area and craving Mexican food. I recognized the Robertos name from San Diego. We got carne asada burritos to go. They were really good with lots of tasty well seasoned meat inside. The sauces from the salsa bar were all very good and the carrots were crispy abs hot.
If you crave California style Mexican food then Robertos will definitely satisfy your cravings.

Who can really complain about mexican food. Always come here whenever I want a quick bite in the random hours of the night.
The 5 rolled tacos with extra cheese
The Carne asada fries after a nice workout
The California burrito to hit the spot
And the breakfast burrito to eat half and save for when I wake up.
Finally refreshing Jamaica to wash it all down
That’s my story when it comes to robertos. The cashiers are always funny and cooks always hook it up when I ask for that extra queso! Like whopping handful of it!

Okay so this is probably like my favorite Roberts to go to! The carne Asada fries are like a forbidden fruit to me. I know I shouldn’t be eating them but I get them. And eat the whole thing! Terrible! But oh well it shouldn’t be so damn good! The service is always very fast and friendly! If it gets to the point where they know you by name then. Yes you are officially a Roberts taco shop addict like me :-) anyways if You are in the area and want a quality Roberts to visit this is your place! My only thing is that these particular items on the menu have went up and they will definitely nickel and dime you for all of the normal things that should come on a burrito or whatever else such as sour cream, guacamole, cheese etc! Your lucky if you get the damn limes and lemons for free! Other than that it’s awesome!

Am I ordering wrong? Been here a few times just to make sure, but all visits left me craving real Mexican food even more. Roberto’s didn’t do it for me :-(Tried several items on different occasions and all were pretty boring — nothing special.
Tried: Chicken enchiladas, chicken tacquitos, chicken quesadilla, crunchy chicken and beef tacos, rice & beans etc.
I’ve never had their burritos, so maybe that is the ticket?
