    Ranchero Steak w/ the usual.

    I have always enjoyed their food, the lunch special was not that good, it was on the salty side and the meat was cut in very small pieces. I'll return but stay clear of the steak. Service was excellent.

    I'm just going to count and say it, the food is just ok not great but ok. The service is ok, the mariachis were so load my ears were ringing. Crossroads has been there forever and I have had friends that love it, I understand that because it's overall experience is not that bad. I'm just not excited to go back.

    Beef Flauta Chicken Flauta

    This place was recommended by our customer since we were not from the area. I have gluten sensitivity so it was hard to communicate that to the staff who were super nice! So I opted for the rolled corn flautas . Super delicious!!! Both the chicken and the beef. My associate had the special chimichanga and was super pleased. The restaurant is super cute and the staff was excellent! I hope I make it back to try again!

    TL;DR Ate before 5 in an empty restaurant and it took 45 minutes for the food. It was good though. We stopped in Crossroads on a recommendation from a local, and we're seated around 4 PM. The restaurant wasn't very busy, and we were seated quickly. Two of us got the Sonoran Hot Dogs, one tacos and one a beef burro. Sadly, it took 45 minutes for the food to arrive. This was my first experience eating the Sonoran Hot Dogs and they are crazy good. The tacos had a crazy good, crack-like sauce on the side. The burro was meh. Pretty bland tasting. The chips and salsa were really good. They serve Pepsi out of the fountain and Coke from the bottle.

    Cheese Crisp

    Mexican Restaurant near the freeway to meet up with family coming from Sierra Vista. Met up at lunch time. Plenty of spacious seating. Friendly staff. Ordered cheese crisp appetizer, chips & salsa while we waited for everyone to arrive. We had Cheeseburger, chicken tenders, chicken flautas & shrimp enchiladas! We were craving so much. Haha. Good atmosphere had us munching & laughing. Good spot for good family time.

    Crossroads is one of the first Tucson institutions we began visiting almost 12 years ago & after over a year...we finally went again without disappointment. We've taken quite a few family & friends for a meal & never had a bad experience. After seeing numorous family restaurants closed because of dumb politicians, it was awesome to find them open & to give them some money. Saturday afternoon gave them plenty of business & as usual, live local music. The crowds are diverse. Large & small families, dates, friends. They have a buffet on Sundays & it was always quite busy in the past. We were seated under the bull, which made me terribly happy. Even though we contemplated a different dish or 20, we went for mixed fajitas..have to ask for them, they aren't on the menu. Steak, chicken, shrimp, along with rice, beans, sour cream, guacamole. All meats were cooked perfectly. We added a super nacho with carne asada & chicken. We piled fajita onto nachos & had a wonderful lunch. As usual, the portions were so large the two dishes could have easily fed 4 to 6 people. We took home 3 large clamshells of leftovers. We didn't add any drinks. The experience was a $40 bundle of joy. Went home, watched The Sound of Music & took a nap.

    If you're looking for a good place to eat in Tucson check out this place. They only have one big table but you can definitely sit together if you have a large group in the back. Friendly people and delicious food. If you like sweet corn and green chili tamales these are tasty.

    We have so many great choices in this area for Mexican food, and given we had never been here we thought we would give it a try. The moment we discovered it was a breakfast buffet (and only $10 plus change) my husband was ALL in. The first thing that I loved about Crossroad was their parking spaces. They just seem huge to me, so no cramming cars in and getting door dings here. The service was great, yes even though it was a buffet (although you can order from the menu). The server checked in often for drink refills and cleared plates. There was also a lady making eggs to order plus waffles/pancakes in the small buffet area. While the buffet area is small there is plenty to choose from when you think Mexican breakfast food. Chilaquiles, Chile Rellano, Pozole, Menudo, Potatoes, Beans, Calabasitas, and the list goes on. There is also a fruit/salad bar area, fresh tortillas and toasted bollilo and chips/salsa.

    I came in for lunch. It wasn't busy, It is a Monday though. I got seated fast. My waitress was pleasant. I got a basket of chip right away with a salsa and a little dish of limes with out having to ask. I had water to drink and ordered the Monday Special of shredded beef burrito for 8.99 I added enchilada style that is a little extra charge. The food was good the meat had a nice flavor. The rice was a little salty and dry. One thing did bother me thought as I boxed my left overs I say a bunch of dark colored baby ants. I put my phone light on to make sure I was seeing right. I immediately told the waitress and she said she will not seat no one there. I hope she tells her manager so they can take care of that issue. I feel itchy now :( She handed me my bill and it was under 16.00. Not my favorite way to end my lunch. Now that I think of it, I should have took a picture of them critters.

    Rice and beans
    Amanda D.

    Stopped by because we had a bogo coupon. The place was cute inside and reminded me of a typical traditional Mexican restaurant. The complimentary chips and salsa were decent... the chips could have been more fresh and a larger portion of salsa would have been nice. I did like the limes though! I opted for the steak fajitas and my boyfriend went with the shrimp enchiladas. The food came out quick but was simply lacking flavor. I had to salt my food generously. The steak itself was over cooked and the vegetables were undercooked. The rice and beans were also bland. Our waitress was friendly and the prices were decent but this wasn't a meal I'll rave to my friends about.

    We were hungry for a good Mexican breakfast but wanted someplace we haven't tried yet so we went to the crossroads restaurant after driving around for a while just kind a hoping we'd find somewhere. Great find! We chose the breakfast buffet which if I remember right was 1399 each you get your drink with that, ( coffee soft drinks etc.) the choices are wonderful we will definitely go back but next time I want to try the lunchtime buffet which I believe runs from 11 to 2 but you'd have to check and then at night there is no buffet the help is great the service is fast and friendly and the food taste just perfect ,Thumbs up and we will see them again

    chicken mole
    Berna V.

    Very satisfying meal! Crossroads does not disappoint especially if you're hungry. Even the appetizers are in big servings. Their salsa with the complementary chips is prob one of the best ones in Tucson. Some of my fave dishes include the carne seca, and the mole, but honestly can't go wrong with anything in the menu. It also helps that all the servers and staff have great customer service skills. Def a local favorite and one of the numerous Mexican restaurants in the area worth a try.

Spacious patio area, with cool lights, umbrellas, and many tables. If you have a choice and it isn't too hot, sit outside. The food is stellar! I got their ranch style flat enchilada, which is more or less a thick masa topped with enchilada flavors and spices. So yummy. (And it's vegetarian too!) The rest of the table (3 more) ordered the green chicken enchiladas. They didn't need to rave about it: their plates were completely clean at the end of the meal! We ordered Tamarindo and Horchata drinks between us, and frankly, the Tamarindo is some of the best I've ever had anywhere. Service can be a little slow, especially if they're busy. But we didn't really mind. It was a nice experience.

Their back patio looks super cute for warmer nights and the food was great. Little bit of a wait but the friendly servers got us sat as soon as possible at 7pm Saturday. Salsa and chips were tasty, the carne asada was excellent. The corn tortillas are thick and perfectly charred. The green enchiladas were good too. The sauce was thicker than usual, but that's probably the Native fusion instead of being just Mexican enchiladas. So glad we stopped in, we ate every bite. Forgot to take a picture until I was half through!

Honestly, I wish I could give Yaquesita a little more, maybe half a star more, because this place definitely has potential. Their flavors are good, but compared to similar restaurants the menu feels a bit overpriced. For a party of three we ended up paying around $100, which felt like a bit much for what we got. The restaurant itself is pretty small with only about 3-4 tables inside, but the patio is a decent size and has a cute vibe. It's actually a nice option on cooler days if you don't mind sitting outside. Some items were better than others. The wet-style burrito was delicious and definitely a highlight. The quesabirrias were good, however the birria felt more like fancier shredded beef. It was missing that rich, spicy, slightly acidic, earthy flavor that usually sets birria apart from barbacoa or traditional shredded beef dishes. The bowl was just okay and had lots of lettuce. It felt more like a salad with a bit of meat, rice, and beans. Honestly, Chipotle does bowls better, and that says a lot considering the price. The nachos were good, but I've had better. Seis Kitchen has amazing nachos to share. That said, it's definitely a place I'd come back to mainly out of convenience, not because one particular item on the menu won my heart. I really do hope they continue refining the menu because the flavors are there and this place could easily become a standout spot. Personally I just think at the total price of my ticket other restaurants should not even have room in my mind during my meal. If you're in the area and looking for a safe bet where everyone will probably find something they like, it's worth giving them a try.
