I was introduced to La Frontera on Lincoln and 35th Ave when I was just a little kid, and I've been…read moregoing ever since. As I got older, I eventually started coming to this location, and honestly, I feel like the tacos here are even better. The meat has an amazing flavor, the quality of the tacos is always on point, the service is great, and I really enjoy the overall vibe of the area. My usual order is 6 tacos de asada and 3 de tripa, along with a Coca-Cola en botella or an horchata. The food is consistently delicious, the service is fast and friendly, and the atmosphere is especially enjoyable on weekend nights. It's one of those places where people come after a night of partying or just because they're looking for somewhere open late to get some seriously good tacos. This place also has a special meaning to me personally. I brought my wife here on our first date, and I hope that one day I can bring my son here when he's old enough to enjoy the food. I've shared so many memories here with friends and family over the years, and I plan to keep coming back for as long as this place is open and I'm around. For me, this isn't just another taco spot--it's a place with a real connection to my life and a lot of great memories attached to it. I truly hope it continues to be around for many more years.

La Frontera is one of those downtown Phoenix food trucks permanently parked in a setting that looks…read morelike a semi truck stop and that hits the spot exactly when Mexican comfort food is what you're craving, day or night. It's casual, satisfying, and always a little bit of a scene in the best way. There are tables if you want to sit, and depending on the hour, you might find yourself surrounded by suited business people, construction workers, late-night wanderers, or a mix of all three. In any case, it's always a trip. The ladies running the truck are all smiles and especially patient when this gringo places his order completely in Spanish. That alone makes the experience feel warm and fun before the food even arrives. This is exactly the kind of place downtown should have: no fuss, plenty of character, and food that satisfies the craving.

From the planning process to the event itself, La was wonderful to work with--responsive, organized, and genuinely invested in making sure everything went smoothly. The food was incredible. The brisket was worth every single penny and was hands-down the star of the show. We had a crowd of serious BBQ fans, with about 90% of our guests originally from Kansas City, and even the biggest BBQ snobs couldn't stop talking about how good it was. More than one person commented that it was some of the best BBQ they've had in Arizona. The portions were generous, everything was served perfectly, and the food truck setup made the event feel fun and effortless. We would absolutely use them again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for any event. Thank you, La, for helping make my dad's birthday such a memorable celebration!

Lao and BBQ? After trying it last night I can tell you it works! We were finally able to try them…read moreduring their stop near PV mall at an apartment complex. The BBQ was top notch and I think the ribs were the best followed by the pork belly. The chicken was done very well but it's hard to beat the pork. The jeow som was a perfect compliment to the bbq and the sticky rice. The smoked brisket pho was also a hit. We only missed out on the papaya salad which would've been a nice way to cut the richness of the meats, we'll try that next time. They are honing their craft and clearly know what they are doing. I'd be excited for a restaurant some day to try even more of the Lao offerings.

It was heavily coated in oil between the layers of corn tortilla and even under the tacos themselves. I'm a local to the area and always passes the area and thought to give it a try but don't think I would be coming back here. They gave cucumber and lemons which was nice, I ate them with salt and pepper.

Great BBQ in this little place. This would be a frequent stop for us if we lived in the area.read more

This what we ordered: Brisket Hot links Pork Belly Pork Ribs BBQ Beans Collard Greens BBQ Spaghetti Hot Water Cornbread Cedar Lane Lemonade Everything was flavored nicely. If I had to omit one item from our order it would be the beans. My favorite was the BBQ Spaghetti, collard greens and the Hot water cornbread. I thought the beans would have a bit more flavor, but I've never been a bean kind of gal. You will need to try it for yourself! The Hot water Cornbread was great. The texture was a little gritty, but still yummy. The shape is what caught me by surprise. It was round and flat almost like a pancake. The service was outstanding. Friendly and hardworking. The food came out in good time. There is plenty of seating inside and outside. Has a warm but rustic vibe. I would most definitely revisit this spot whenever in the area.

I ordered half mixed of meat, you can choose 2 or 3 meats whatever you like on the menus, but I would recommend you to ask the service, she knows her family food very well. It's reasonably price, big portions and good for sharing 2-4 people. Come and give it a try , you will love it ! For me, I will come back again soon.

For a minute I forgot and felt like I was in Mexico. We even had to ask for our check because in Mexico the don't believe in rushing a person when they are eating. I loved it. My daughter the picky eater ate all of her enchiladas and finished my soup. Portions are good size too. Definitely coming back.

My wife and I have been hearing about this place for a while and how it's really a must-try…read morehotspot. My honest opinion of the place is positive. We went on a weekend morning. I had the gorditas with an iced café de olla, while my wife ordered a regular hot café de olla and a torta de tamal. We also received complimentary food in the form of a small tamalito when we ordered our drinks. The food presentation and overall aesthetic were a nice touch, and the ambiance was also pleasant. Overall, in my honest opinion, the food was average. Nothing really stood out apart from the café de olla. The service was good, but while we were there, we noticed a man had a grievance after repeatedly telling the waiter that his order was wrong. Even though the staff insisted that the order was correct, when the man tried to change the item, they refused. This ultimately caused the man and his family to leave. My experience was fine, although I felt the place was a bit too expensive. There are better and cheaper alternatives. I would recommend trying it out, though. It's a nice spot to take someone, or even to enjoy by yourself for a nice lunch or dinner. For me personally, it's more of a "try it once" kind of situation. I won't be returning, but the overall experience and food were nice.
