GrubHub Brought You Here. We Would Rather Cook for You Direct.
One of the oldest habits in food delivery is opening the same app you have always opened. Here is one good reason to break it—and it is not about the food, because the food is identical either way.
Open 24 Hours • Every Day
Looking for the Best Tortas in Town? You Found Them
If you went looking for the best tortas in Las Vegas, you landed in the right place. These are the most delicious tortas you will ever taste—the sign above our door has said Tortas Gigantes for years, and it is not an exaggeration.
Alongside them: street tacos, quesadillas, flautas, burritos, sopes, soup with lime and cilantro on the side, elote, and aguas frescas straight out of the vitrolero. All of it cooked to order, all of it available at any hour, because we do not close.
We are glad you ended up here.
You were looking for food on GrubHub and you landed on our page instead, and you are thinking about ordering direct. Thank you—sincerely. It is worth more to this kitchen than an order placed through the app, and the next section shows exactly how much more.
Longevity Has Not Made the Fees Any Smaller
GrubHub is one of the originals, and it helped invent the model everyone else copied: charge the restaurant on one side, charge the diner on the other, and sit in the middle of both.
If the order goes through GrubHub
Up to 48% of one order
| Who pays it | What it is | How much |
|---|---|---|
| The restaurant | Marketplace commission | up to 30% |
| The restaurant | Card processing | about 3% |
| You | Service and delivery fees | up to 15% |
| Taken out of one order | up to 48% | |
GrubHub's published plans start low, but the effective restaurant rate climbs with delivery and marketing add-ons and is widely reported up toward 30%. Card processing takes about 3% more, and your own service and delivery fees are charged separately.
If you order direct from us
A small ordering fee
- A small ordering fee, and that is it. Nothing else is added.
- The restaurant pays no commission at all.
- Because of that, the menu prices are the same as calling us or walking in.
- What you spend stays with the kitchen, the staff and the neighborhood.
Nothing stacked, nothing tiered, nothing deducted before we have been paid for the food. A small ordering fee, and the same menu prices as if you phoned us.
A Dollar Spent Direct Is a Dollar That Stays
Independent restaurants do not run on big margins. When a commission takes up to 30% off the top, that is not profit being trimmed—it is the difference between a kitchen that can keep its staff on overnight and one that cannot.
Ordering direct keeps that money inside the Las Vegas economy, where it pays wages, buys supplies from local vendors and keeps the lights on at 577 E Twain Ave. Same food, same price, very different destination.
Checking the Other Apps Too?
Here is the same honest breakdown, one page per marketplace.
GrubHub is a trademark of its respective owner. Las Famosas de Jose is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by GrubHub. The figures above are the upper end of commission and fee ranges that delivery marketplaces publish or that are widely reported; the exact rate depends on the platform, the plan a restaurant is on and the market. Our point is the shape of the stack, not a quote for any one order.
Break the Habit, Keep the Tortas.
Order direct from Las Famosas de Jose. A small ordering fee, no commission, and a kitchen that is open 24 hours a day.
