24/7 Mexican food?! Perfect for after a concert, or even if the mood strikes for late night eats. Usually, I've had to go to a diner or Jack-in-the-Box after a concert so this was a nice change when a friend suggested. The interior is nothing exciting, but overall clean. All the staff were pretty friendly, and the food came out quickly. Overall, I've had better Mexican food, but it hit the spot. Definitely somewhere I'd go when other locations I prefer are closed. read more

My review is based on the food when we had take out only! I have had their breakfast burritos twice and one time my friend got it for me and bought it home. The other time we went through the drive thru. Both times I got the same thing, sausage, egg, cheese, and add potatoes. My favorite. These breakfast burritos are huge, I never finish one in one seating. It is always a 2 meal burrito for me. read more

If you're picky about meat, and want it seasoned well then this is your place. Both the carne asada and cubed chicken were seasoned to perfection. You can tell they marinate their meat, which we prefer. & being from CA and trying Mexican food for the first time in AZ, we weren't disappointed. We tried the carne asada burrito, added rice and beans, chicken quesadilla, carne asada fries and enchiladas. Everything was great and so were the salsas. The mini claw machine was fun too. read more

I ordered through uber and the chicken chimichanga and a large horchata it was amazing! read more

Food is really good' always get a Cali burrito and tastes great and fresh. The reason I said 4 stars is because I've been coming here for years and it feels like the portions are smaller now but taste is still good read more

They have the Best quesadilla wet Juicy with peppers mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm And it's great that they're 24 hours read more

Absolutely the best Mexican fast food in town. Portions are large and the flavor is authentic. Service is quick. Try the Adobado taco

Their carne asada fries or the special Amado fries are my stinking favorite. They're so good. I get them xtra crispy. With the spicy red salsa and it's amazing. I prefer the special fries cause they're about 1/2 the size, cheaper & comes with a drink as well as pico. Not just mean guac & cheese. They remind me of McDonald's fries cause they're a long shoestring read more

Searched around and found this place in Tempe about a 15 min drive from phoenix where I was staying. Reddit said they had "the best" carne asada fries in Tempe / phoenix area. I can say.. they were mid at best. Fries were a mix of soggy and hard, the meat too chewy and barely enough cheese to mask anything. Not a fan. San Diego still has some of the best carne asada fries I've had anywhere. My search in phoenix continues. read more

I swear I've rated Amados Mexican food several times already, but I will continue to take the opportunity to give them five stars. Here's the order: Amado's breakfast burrito with french fries instead of potatoes add Carne Asada. 4 salsa verdes and a Mexican coke. You can thank me later. read more

The yummiest food and nicest employees ever!!! I am a regular and I will continue to be!! They deserve all the business!!

I am obsessed with the food, but they need to be updating their availability on postmates and doordash. Everytime i order it will say they cant get to my order, yet shows its avaliable. I have become pretty disappointed in this. read more

The food was delicious. Good portion for the price service was great. They were all good and the place was clean. I really look forward to going back again. read more

Great food. Fast service. Authentic Mexican food would highly recommend this place . Everytime we visit Arizona this is our go to stop for Mexican food. They also have a drive thru read more

One of the best carne asada burritos I've had in a long time. Beans and rice side also had wonderful flavor. Red and green salsa are delicious, even better mixed. Service was incredibly fast as well! The vibe is a little dated but the food is worth it. First time customer! read more

This place sucks. Not worth the money at all. I ordered for delivery and I ordered the "beef or chicken fajitas" and I can't even choose between the 2 because there's literally no options. Pretty terrible. They also don't pick up the phone when trying to call to let them know if I want "beef or chicken". This is a very low tier fast food mexican food. I hope this restaurant goes completely out of business permanently. They deserve to be shut down for good. I know this place will shut down soon and for good read more

Drive thru was super convenient. We were out and about running a few errands and didn't want to get out of the car yet again. Service was great and food was ready quickly. Everything seemed fresh and tasted great for a quick meal. We will definitely be making this part of the usual rotations! Next time we will go inside. read more

Never been disappointed anytime I have eaten here in the last 20+ years. The place is always clean staff has always been friendly too.

After placing an order on line and having our credit card charged, my husband arrive to pick up the order with them claiming they had no record of the order. He was able to provide them with the online receipt and proof of the credit card charge and they still refused to fill the order. This was a large order for a group of volunteers so it made it even more upsetting. read more

Thought I would try a new restaurant. The food was served cold and the place it filthy. Enter at your own risk. read more

With how often we go here (once a week) I have to update from 4 to 5 stars. Amados is our favorite. I always get the mini tacos (barbacoa & chicken). We all love the carne asada fries too. read more

I don't expect much when I go to Amado's- cheap, fast, Mexican food! If I'm at Amado's it's because most everything else is closed and I need a taco fix! If you have these expectations you'll like Amado's. The fish tacos are on the pricier side- $3.20/each! But again, at 10pm there were limited options. They are on the bigger size. They were decent. There was a burnt little fish nugget in mine. Bf got 2 beef tacos for $1.50 ($1.55? Can't remember) each on Taco Tuesday. A pretty good deal if you ask me! It was a pretty standard taco, not mind blowing but also not terrible. We asked for red salsa and received 2. 2 red salsas for 4 tacos *insert face palm emoji* The red salsa was weak- not spicy at all. Our total for 2 fish tacos and 2 beef tacos was $10. Again, not great but again, 10pm on a Tuesday evening. I did notice they still have the sign on their drive thru window about the beef shortage and needing to raise prices for beef tacos. The sign has been on there since the start of COVID. 2.5 stars. read more

I like the food no matter what get, the lady at the drive thru know my by heart so the service is great, love going into the restaurant because of their picked onions, carrots and jalapeño. So all together a great place read more

If you haven't been you haven't lived. Get one of everything. Tuesdays tacos are simple yet delicious. Every taco on the menu is generously portioned, full of goodness. You might hate yourself if you skip the adobada or carnitas.. The breakfast burrito is always a win. Top off whatever you're getting with a large horchata (best in the East Valley) and you'll be hooked for life! read more

I come here probably once a week - I absolutely love their chicken tacos! The green salsa is awesome, too.

Amados is a nice little Mexican food restaurant with a fun cantina style atmosphere. The employees are very friendly and the food is made fresh to eat. Always a good choice when in the mood for a good, easy meal. read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Amado's. This is our go to fast food Mexican take out place when we come to Tempe. It's nothing special. The menu is on the wall and you order at the window. They usually only have one cook and it's a small operation. They have just opened back up the indoor seating. Anyhow, I've tried a lot of the menu. The combination meals are a favorite cause you get a scoop of rice and beans with a side drink. I actually really like their carne Asada burritos, tacos, rolled tacos, tostada, and enchiladas. My son-in-law likes their carne Asada fries. Really haven't gotten anything bad here. I really like their green sauce which is more of mild than their red sauce but both are outstanding. They both add a nice kick to their food. I know this is just a small little Mexican shop but I feel like it's pretty authentic. Food is great and cheap. Their service is usually pretty quick and helpful. If you want something quick and good. You should try it. Oh yea, they do have a drive thru window too so if you don't like coming in. For sure I will be back cause our family loves their Mexican food. Enjoy we do read more

Best 24/7 Mexican spot I've encountered in AZ. The vibe is relaxing with beautiful murals in the dining area with authentic Mexican music playing. I got the chicken taquitos and mini chimichangas which were both great. The guacamole and chips were fresh. The best part? It passed the bathroom test - I wasn't sick a few hours later like most 24/7 Mexican spots. Highly recommended! read more

While in town for the holidays. We were led to this local eatery. I greatly enjoyed munching on there Pollo Asado fries & quesadillas. Washed it down with smooth tasting Pina Agus's Fresca. I knew the place was great when I noticed people willing to wait outside the door. The staff was courteous & patient while being able to compete orders in a prompt fashion. Whenever I return to Arizona, I'll have to make a pit stop. read more

This is probably one of my go to spots for fast Mexican food. They have the best carne asada I've had in that regard, and it definitely beats any of the -berto's. Their food is always fresh & comes out quick. The service is pretty minimal, but you don't really need to interact with the employees much. There's also a ton of space if you want to sit away from other people. I eat here pretty frequently, and every time I see new deals or combos that I'm shocked at the price point in a good way. Definitely worth trying if you've not been. Oh! And they're 24 hours, so if you need late night food; this is the spot. read more

To be honest I have lived down the road from Amado's for the last 2 years but I have been scared to try it from the reviews. Last night I ordered it at 2am for the first time. I got a Carne Asada Chimichanga. At first I was skeptical eating it, but as I ate more I realized this was delicious! Honestly soooooo good. To add more flavor I used their red salsa, amazing! Every single bite was so good. If you're concerned about trying this place because of the reviews, don't be. The meat is cooked perfectly and is full of flavor. Not the mention it is MASSIVE. I am definitely coming back and can't believe I waited this long to try it. read more

Go for delicious Mexican food, hot, well prepared . however over the years it has gotten expensive. I guess that's everywhere now.

I had food delivered to the Marriott where I was staying. The hotel's restaurant closes at 10pm and I had not eaten. Amado's is open 24 hours. The delivery was fairly fast. I got the super nachos and they were really good. I loved the sauce. It was a lot of food. Enough to share. read more

We go there at least twice a week. However this time I was charged $1.00 per taco for extra lettuce. One head of ice burg lettuce cost .99 cents. Not only did the clerk not tell me it was an up -charge but I ended up throwing out most the wilted warm lettuce cost $2.00 (more then half the taco) I don't beleive I've ever been charged for extra Carnesh in a seat down restaurant. Very disappointed!! Not sure if I'll go back. You should be told upfront if you want a tablespoon on extra lettuce it will cost you a dollar ... no more a regular customer. read more

Holy snap. Awesome burritos for sure! Pulled up around 2:30am and they hooked us up in less than 10 minutes. I had the carne asada with beans and my beautiful bride got the sausage and egg breakfast burrito. Well if you like sausage and a little bit of egg in your burrito this is the place Awesome and will be back read more

The rice and beans were good, but the machaca meat I ordered was trash. It tasted like absolutely nothing that's supposed to resemble meat. I don't even think it was edible. This plate cost $11, and you can get such better Mexican anywhere else around (Someburros can teach this place a thing or two about cheap, good food). I definitely did not enjoy it and wouldn't recommend you come, even for late-night fast food. read more

The food was excellent took a while to get it because they don't take your order until an orders finished but that's OK because it was nice and hot and delicious read more
