    Helado/icecream

    Food is cheap on certain days ambiance is very slow casual and a bit concerned watching g someone chewing gum while they work the food line. Definitely a health code violation. Sucks to imagine saliva or other contaminated food products when good training and food handling training can avoid this.

    Charlie's Tacos is mine and my husbands absolute favorite taco place in Phoenix! You can't go wrong with these amazing authentic street tacos. We come on Taco Tuesday starting at 7pm they're $1 and we get at least 20 tacos. 10 carne asada, and 10 al pastor. My mouth is water writing this review! Can't wait for this Tuesday to go back! These tacos really unlock a whole new craving you didn't know you had.

    Stopped by Charlie's Taco truck for grab and go.

    It may be a bit of a wait but nothing beats the tacos or food here. This place is huge and you can go inside for entertainment, dancing and great music while you order, OR you can just order from the taco truck outside. You can eat there or take it to go. My absolute favourite craving.

    Tacos / mini quesadilla
    Ana A.

    You might know that this was the spot where taqueria los Yaqui used to be. Decided to come give them a try because I miss those tacos so much! Well it did not disappoint! It's not the same but it's very similar. Prices are still the same $1 tacos and $2 mini quesadillas. They now accept cards and you can order online. You no longer have to do the 45min line wait! If you know, you know! The tables and services is still the same. You still got drinks and orchata. Will keep tacos Charlie's on my back pocket for more tacos later on!

    Beef Tacos

    Absolutely love their Tacos! Tried their Beef taco. Rumored to be that it was less than $1 per taco and is currently priced at $1.50 now. I wouldn't mind paying for it and could totally have 10 to myself. Easy peasy! It was just that good! I would rank this as one of the best tacos I've had at a non franchised place. The downside to this is the wait time. They're a little slow when it comes to taking the orders and making the.

    The quesadillas con carne were delicious! It's one of the few taco trucks in Phoenix open late and they are definitely worth it!

    If I could give this taco truck 100 stars I would. My husband & I are regulars at this place. Not only do they have the most amazing food, the price you absolutely can't beat for the best quality producta, they also have thee most amazing staff. From ordering your food from Jesse or Ray ( who I am I kidding they know our order ) to getting your food so quickly you will be amazed. We love to make it a family event. We bring every friend who comes to visit to this truck and I've never had anyone say anything bad about it! Amazing foo, bomb prices, & the kindest staff!!!

    Five chicken tacos

    Tacos are great. I always get chicken tacos. Id like to try other items on the menu but the chicken tacos are great for $2. Place is open til 4am. Best place around in that area no contest. Nothing else even open past 9pm.

    Delicious food but you do have to wait a quite a while for your order. However, it is well worth the wait!!

    The truck. It's awesome!!

    We landed late in Phoenix and were starving. With few places open past 11pm, we ended up at Charlie's. While the main disco parking lot is a bit sketchy, it's safe and there are a lot of people around. Walk around the corner to the Camelback Rd. side and the taco truck experience is awesome. Food is amazing and cheap!!! The Jamaica and Horchata were amazing too. Highly recommend the tacos and mini quesadillas

    Mini quesadillas! My favorite! Asada and chicken with everything!

The chunks of meat are generous and I've never bit into anything wierd (that's a deal breaker for me) and the broth is nice and thick. I'll rip a chunk of the perfectly fried, but not too greasy bread and dunk it into that fabulous broth and it emerges perfectly coated, getting soaked up by the little fried crunchies. And don't worry about it ever being soggy, you'll never leave it on your plate long enough for that to happen. Once you taste that first bite you won't talk to your friends, or check in on your phone, or even wipe up your kids spills until every morsel has been consumed.

I had heard good things about The Fry Bread House and during my latest trip to Phoenix I made sure to visit. I ordered the Combo Taco with extra red chile on the side. The fry bread itself was perfect. It had a nice crunchy texture on the outside, but was nice and fluffy on the inside. The red chile beef reminded me a lot of the traditional New Mexican red chile my family makes. Service was excellent. I went during the lunch rush and it took no more than 10 minutes to wait in line, order, and receive my food. The restaurant was nice and clean too. Definitely recommend visiting. This will be a must stop for me every time I go to Phoenix.

We went the same day, arrived to discover there was an accident that took out the stoplight and hit the owners car. Even with that going on, she welcomed us and we ordered a couple of burritos while taking not of all of the fresh pastries and other goodness. We ordered one beef and green chile and a Sausage breakfast burrito. They make their own sausage for these from a recipe that has been in the family for over 100 years, and I highly recommend it. Both were exceptional and they are huge and do not skimp on the meat. After those we could not pass up grabbing some of the Maple Peach bread pudding and an Apple Danish. The Apple Danish was outstanding, cannot speak to the bread pudding as that disappeared before I was able to try it. This place is awesome, great food, great staff, great atmosphere, and we will be adding this to our breakfast rotation for sure. I need to return to try the burgers, and I'm certain they will not disappoint. If you are in the area, this is the place you need to try for sure.

My previous order was a few years ago and I recall it being pretty flavorful. My more recent order was light, crispy and served hot, though it didn't have much flavor. It wasn't bad; just not great. My memory could deceive me, but the portion size seemed slightly smaller. My order was prepared quickly and the employee was nice enough. I do, however, wish they had offered condiments such as lemon wedges which were never offered. I know lemon wedges were available in the past. If they still are, it would have been nice if the employee asked if I wanted any or if they could be requested through the app (which I didn't see). The ambiance is casual and the facility was clean. Be aware late night hours can draw large crowds and parking may be limited.

    People treat fast food reviews like police reports, they only come calling when there is an issue…read more So I like to balance that out and provide reviews when fast food delivers! This drive-thru-only location is basically the Formula 1 pit crew of chicken sandwiches. The line can look terrifying, but somehow you still get your food faster than most places take to say "welcome in." The staff is consistently friendly, the food actually looks like the menu pictures (a miracle in fast food), and the whole operation runs with suspicious levels of efficiency. There is a patio if you're feeling adventurous, but this is Phoenix, where sitting outside half the year feels like volunteering to be slow-roasted. Thankfully, this spot is perfect for grabbing lunch on the go or picking up dinner on the way home. Fast, friendly, accurate, and reliable, the fast food equivalent of finding a shopping cart with all four wheels working.

    So I'm updating my previous review because... plot twist, we had a situation…read more I originally gave this place 4 stars because overall they've been solid. Fast, efficient, food hits, no major complaints. But after my most recent experience, I'm dropping it to 3. I ordered online, paid ahead, did the whole "I'm a responsible adult" thing. I get there, give my name, pull up, and suddenly I'm told my total like I never paid. Then someone loudly calls out from the back, "OH! it declined." First of all... what? Second of all... inside voices?? Here's the kicker: it did NOT decline. I had the confirmation email, and my bank showed the charge (I didn't know this yet). Instead of verifying, she told me matter-of-factly that it declined, so I handed her the exact same card I used online, and she ran it again. Boom, double charged. And at that point, I'm starving and not about to fight over a fast food order, trusting that staff are doing their due diligence, not just assuming and casually charging a second $30 like it's no big deal in this economy. I had to go back through the drive-thru line (again), wait (again), and deal with it while my food sat getting soggy (not again, unfortunately, just once was enough). To their credit, the refund was issued and it did hit my account. So yes, they fixed it. That matters. But... this shouldn't have happened in the first place. It's a training issue. If an order is confirmed, don't assume it declined. And maybe don't announce someone's "declined card" across the building like it's a group discussion topic. Still a decent location... would be smart to verify before you charge people twice (maybe my expectations are too high?) and I will never order online again because of this, lesson learned first time around on that.
