Asadero Norte De Sonora - Carne asada tacos - Mexican Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Hubby and I needed a quick bite before I drop him off for his flight and we weren't going to settle for airport food. So we found this gem right next to the gas station while we were filling up. The order took 10 mins to be ready which is a good sign because it means they are making it fresh! I got the veggie tostada and oh my goodness. I do not know what they put but I remember that they spread refried beans on it, it has some raw onions, avocado and tomatoes as far as I can remember and it tasted so fresh. Hubby got some type of burrito, I cannot remember the meat but he mentioned that he enjoyed every single part of it and glad he was not eating airport food. Hubby and I agrees to stop by here whenever we are in the area! read more

Unassuming, simple, authentic hole in the wall restaurant. They offer cebeza (beef head) and lengua (beef tongue) which is a plus. These meat cuts are common in Central and South America and should be more popular. read more

This place is one of my favorite restaurants OF ALL TIME. I had never had a parillada until Asadero, and now this is my favorite way to eat tacos! Family style, heated plate, and build-your-own tacos! Usually I get a 1/2 parillada with half carne asada and half pastor for 2 people and a full parillada for 4-5 people. We've gone to Asadero with large groups (10ish people) during lunch and they've always been helpful and accommodating. Note: Sometimes we call ahead for larger orders since it takes a certain amount of time to prepare! The parillada always comes with some veggies on top, bean soup per person (absolutely delicious), tortillas, guac, salsa, cucumbers. read more

Asadero Norte De Sonora - Parillada media - carna asada y pastor (pure perfection and plenty for 2 people) - Mexican Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Asadero Norte de Sonora is the ONLY place where I go to get tortas! It's a simple yet insanely delicious meal. Something about their combination of bread, carne asada, and Mayo makes it's flavors incomparable to any other restaurant in Phoenix. It's a family owned business and the staff there are always very welcoming. They have other items on the menu such as tacos and quesadillas. Their frijoles charros are lowkey underrated. The red salsa is not watered down and has pretty good amount of spicy. Fun fact- they have one of the best horchata in the Valley! read more

This place literally takes the cake as one of my favorite meals ever! I stumbled upon Asadero Norte De Sonora after leaving the airport. Mind you this is my first time in Phoenix and to have my first meal as Barbecued carne asada, al pastor, and lengua made the start of my trip memorable. As we pullled up the parking lot was small but packed to the gills -I knew then this place was good. As we entered the tables were spaced out to provide socially distant accommodations. We walked up and were seated in no time. We ordered the parrillada over charcoal and it was divine. The meat was firey and fresh and the added vegetables created a smokey added layer of taste to every taco. I would fly back to Arizona just to come here. It was that darn good! read more

Food is a bit disappointing, rib hardly has any meat in it, beef steak was not tender...

Paradilla with 3 meats is clutch!!! This hole in the wall seems to be packed all the time. The tortillas were delicious as were the salsas and guacamole. The carne asada and pastor were especially good. Barbacoa was good but not my favorite. Great for takeout too! read more

I always only get the chicken burrito and an horchata. The burrito is filled with grilled chicken and refried beans. It comes with a side of salsa, grilled chile, cucumber, lime slices, and pickled red onions. The horchata can be sweet and doesn't taste homemade but regardless it's part of my order!! read more

One of my favorite Mexican food places in Phoenix, hands down. Hole in the wall place with an unassuming interior, but the food is out of this world. Whenever we have visitors from out of town, I take them here so I can see their eyes widen when the parillada comes out. The rest of their menu probably is fantastic as well, but we always get the parillada because it's so good and honestly has the wow factor. Choose three meats, and it comes out on this burning little grill with onions, peppers, and tortillas on the side. Even the charro beans that come with it are delicious! I've tried many of their meats but my favorite is the cabeza or lengua - so tender, juicy, and flavorful. You can't go wrong. The half parillada can easily feed three people and still have leftovers that are bomb the next day, too. Note: if you're looking for beer to go with your food, they don't sell alcohol, just sodas. read more

The food was delicious, it's a small restaurant but the service was great and as stated above the food was delicious.

Wanted to try this place and waited so long (the pandemic) So finally!!! Attention was perfect.... The food was ok...not what I expected .. Ribs were plain,no flavor.... Chicken was dry ,over cooked And the barbacoa was the only one that I enjoyed the most . The chips & salsas were better than the meat.. I may comeback...if I'm around and there's nothing open .. read more

Everything here was super tasty and fresh. Salsa and charro beans was spicy but very good. We got the half chicken and an asada burrito. All was very good portions for the pricey and I would eat again if I am ever in the area. This was the first spot we ate at after flying into Phoenix from San Antonio. read more

Asadero Norte is a small mom and pop shop located near downtown Phoenix. If your looking for a super authentic place, look no further. I grew up coming to this place. My parents really like the quality, taste, and the food has been so so so consistent over the years. The technique charcoal grilling gives the meat a very distinct taste that is hard to beat. If you are with a party of 4 or more I always recommend the parrillada. If you aren't super hungry other great options are the carne asada burritos, caveza tacos, frijoles charros. They have some really classically flavored drinks (Horchata, Jamaica, and Lemon) all of them are very good but super sweet. (I'd recommend getting another cup and a cup of water and mix it together to taste). Check this place out if you haven't already! Thanks y'all! Cheers enjoy!! :) read more

I came to Phoenix on vacation from New Jersey and was looking for a spot to eat when this came up. Let me tell you I was NOT disappointed! Each table receives a complimentary chips and salsa (homemade and spicy) with a cup of bean soup which was so flavorful I couldn't get over it! Who doesn't love free food, especially when it's good?! I ordered a large cheese quesadilla and that comes with shredded lettuce and guacamole. My parents ordered a whole chicken asado which was the best chicken I've ever eaten! The chicken is properly seasoned and the smoked flavor is out of this world. Also the chicken comes with white corn tortillas and guacamole. I also ordered a side of pico de Gallo and that was spicy but so good! If you're looking for fresh, quality, and inexpensive food come here! You won't be disappointed! Everything is amazing! From the service to the food. I highly recommend. read more

Asadero Norte De Sonora - Dining area - Mexican Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I liked the inside. It feels like a rustic adobe home. My waitress said the chicken is the most popular item. I like chicken. I ordered the half chicken. It was dry and needed salt. The tortillas weren't homemade. The chips were from Costco. The guac had no flavor. Everyone raves about this place in the reviews. I feel like I did something wrong. Is it me? Am I the problem? Gonna go reevaluate my life. read more

Loved the torta and the frijoles charros. Good quality and service. If you enjoy authentic Sonora style food. This is your ticket. read more

Had to grab a quick bite with a friend and we had noticed this place for a few years so we gave it a shot. Service was nice and the place was clean. The ribs had flavor but not much meat, the asado was greasy with to much fat. The bright spot was the chicken which was moist and flavorful. The corn tortillas tasted as if they had been frozen then thawed in the microwave. I expected more based on the reviews. In other words not the spot for good tacos unless you had no choice or options. read more

Dined in and had a tremendous meal. The service was quick and food came quickly. Their salsa is bright and has good spice. I got three tacos and they were all outstanding with corn tortillas made in house. Their charred beans were unbelievably tasty. I could have eaten a while bowl of those beans. I also got a small portion of guacamole with my salsa which was a nice touch. If you're into authentic, really well executed mexican food, this is a spot. read more

I can not possibly speak higher of this place. Absolutely the best food in Phoenix. And reasonably priced. Couldn't recommend more

The half-chicken I ordered came with warm corn tortillas, salsa, guacamole, fresh cucumber slices and charro beans - and of course, a bowl of tortilla chips as starter. For the low price, it was quite a lot of food; they're pretty generous here. The mesquite-roasted chicken here is the best-tasting chicken I've had in a very long time. The salsa was more savory than what I've had in most other Mexican eateries and the guacamole was the thick creamy type - not the thin guacamole taquero served in taquerias. The charro beans were not quite as hearty or tasty as I had expected, but I'll give that a pass because the rest of the meal was really delicious, very filling, and quite inexpensive. It's a popular place (for good reason) but be aware that parking is very limited. read more

Asadero Norte De Sonora - Grilled half chicken. - Mexican Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Amazing food, I stop here whenever I am Phoenix. Chicken is my favorite. The carne is very good as well and best fresh!

I had to pick my mom up at the airport, and decided to grab some lunch at this joint. I had read about it before, and finally made it down this way to get some chicken! I walked in and was immediately assaulted by the smell of deliciousness! It was even a little bit smokey in there! That was a good sign! There were maybe a dozen people sitting down eating lunch. A quick glance at their tables made me start to drool. I couldn't wait to grub! I walked up to the register to place my order and this is where I ran into just a wee bit of a problem. I asked the lady if I could order a half chicken, all white meat. She got a little confused and called over to another lady working there. She informed me that they could do two 1/4 chickens with white meat, but couldn't do a half chicken all white meat. Why does it matter, you ask? A quarter chicken is $5.50, and a half chicken is $8.00. Way better value/deal for the half chicken. At most other Mexican pollo places I have been to, they will let you get the pieces you want for the same price, or maybe charge you an extra buck or two in order to substitute all white meat. Not here though. Kind of lame, definitely more expensive, but whatever....... I was dead set on getting 2 breasts and 2 wings for my lunch, so I went with the 2 quarter chicken meals. My total came out to $11.91. I took a seat and waited for my food. About 5 minutes later, they brought out my plastic bag (yeah California....take that! Plastic bag...and it was free, lol jk) full of my lunch. I took it to the car and when I closed my door, my car was engulfed with a lovely smell. I drove down to the airport cell phone parking lot, undid my bag, and inside was a bunch of stuff! A container of frijoles, a little thing of guacamole, a little thing of hot sauce, a tin foil wrapped pile of corn tortillas, and my styrofoam box of chicken. I did notice that there was no fork in there. There were 2 spoons in there, but no fork. WTF? Lame! Also, since this was "2" 1/4 chicken meals, shouldn't I have received double of all the condiments? (I didn't NEED an additional order of beans, guacamole, hot sauce and tortillas, but still....if you are going to charge a la carte, shouldn't you get everything like it was "2" separate orders?) Anyways...... Here is how it was................. Mexican Grilled Chicken Meal- First of all, I just want to say that this was the best chicken I have had yet in Phoenix! This chicken reminded me of my San Diego joints, and was even better than most of them! The chicken had a beautiful red/orange skin on it and it looked amazing! I picked apart most of the chicken and separated the bones. I took a bite into the breast and hit all the textures right away. Crispy skin, slightly dry (I prefer a drier chicken over a moister chicken...this was in the middle kind of....fucking delicious!), but had the perfect flavor! It was SO.DAMN.GOOD! The wings were real small, but still packed great flavor, too! I kept taking my pieces of chicken and alternated dipping them in the guacamole (tasted just like what I make at home....avocado, some salt and pepper, and some onion....very simple and very pure!) and the hot sauce (nice heat, vinegar based hot sauce). The plate came with a little salad, cucumbers and onions but I didn't eat those. Even though I am trying to limit the carbs, I had to try the tortillas...I had 2 of them and they were awesome, too! I finished my meal and was smiling from ear to ear! Overall, this was a great lunch! 4, and not 5 stars just because I was a little upset that they couldn't accommodate my all white meat request without having to go the a la carte route, and the fact that they didn't give me a fork on a to go order. Considering how good this chicken was, those are small potatoes in the grand scheme of things. I'll just know how/what to order next time. The chicken was flat out amazing! I will definitely be back! It's a drive from Surprise, but this may be my new chicken spot in Phoenix. Man, it was great! read more
