NYNY - Gonzalez Y Gonzalez

Gonzalez Y Gonzalez at New York New York. Only my husband got food here because Mexican food is not my favorite and I couldn't decide what I wanted on menu. But I was hungry and I finally decide to get something BUT waiter never came back so I didn't order anything. I got starbucks after this and I wasn't hungry after that.
Food came pretty fast and the price seems reasonable for a casino.


Machaca burrito $10.95
My husband said: Better than TacoBell
