We had a taco party with several friends. Some ladies brought a cowboy caviar, guacamole & chocolate-flan. We got various types of tacos here; shredded pork, carnitas, & shredded chicken. Some indulged with margaritas, others had water. Nice party with good tasty tacos! Small lot outside. read more

Delicious food every time! Clean & friendly service. Nice new seating area to eat inside.

So freaking good. I would like to say I have a photo of the most excellent chorizo burrito but... it was gone before I could take a photo lol. Beautifully soft and chewy tortilla that holds up next to the made to order eggs and chorizo and we added potatoes. Would have grabbed a second to go (someone else there finished and went back for seconds) but was on the move today. Will prioritize better next time. And can't wait. Sounds like indoor seating coming soon. read more

If you want a stellar breakfast burrito, this is the place for you. The tortilla and fillings were delicious. I had the Desert Breakfast which had a little of everything. I can't wait to go back and try their other items! read more

Based on Yelp reviews, I decided to try the Desert Cave breakfast burritos. Yelpers did not disappoint and the Desert Cave nailed it. It's a walk up place and food is to go only. The service was fantastic, very pleasant, and friendly. Even the cook acknowledged me. I ordered the bacon breakfast burrito. The burrito was large and packed with bacon. It was very flavorful and was one of the best that I have ever had. The price was very fair and I can't wait to return and try the other menu selections. read more

While we looked at the menu posted outside the front door of the restaurant, the cashier opened a window on the side and asked if we wanted to come in. As soon as we entered, everyone working here greeted us (cashier, cooks, everyone). It being our first time here, the cashier told us which dishes were customer favorites. I got the carne asada burrito (which came with guacamole and pico in the burrito), and my friend got the bacon breakfast burrito (which came with egg and cheese in the burrito, and she added potatoes for an extra $0.50). The food came out super fast. The carne asada itself was very bland and tough, and I wish the burrito had less meat and more guacamole and pico. My friend said her burrito was one of the best she's ever had. The tortillas were hot and soft, and I really wish I liked my burrito more than I did. The green hot sauce was delicious, and the cashier gave us three other hot sauces to try (mild, hot, and habanero). He also gave us two 16.9 fl oz water bottles for free. I would give the service here ten stars if I could. I'll come back based on that alone. The parking is ample and close to the entrance. The bathrooms are clean. The seating area inside is nothing fancy, but it's well kept and a quiet place to enjoy your meal. They accept Apple Pay and credit cards for an additional $0.50 charge, so bring cash if you can. read more

They don't have an extensive menu but the burritos are great and I love their sauces. Plus the owner (I think) is always super friendly.

Great spot to stop by for a quick lunch! My husband had a steak burrito and I had a chimichanga. It was delicious. Chips and salsa were good (salsa was spicy). Don't forget to ask for the pickled carrots! This is real Mexican food! The people there are amazing and so kind and you really felt the care put into this family owned business. Will be back! read more

Got a Chorizo Breakfast burrito 10/10, service and staff was super inviting and friendly, great place!

We found this place on the way out to a few different restaurants we frequent. It may look small and unassuming but the food is amazing. The two gentlemen running the place or working there are extremely friendly and even stayed open few minutes late for me to pick up my burritos. I've been here multiple times and the burritos never disappoint!! Stop in and check it out! read more

Best breakfast burrito I've found in the valley and the service is a 10/10 every time.

Best breakfast burritos in the Cave Creek area. They are friendly and service is quick. We have tried the burritos with ham, bacon and chorizo and all were great. Level up by adding potatoes for $0.50 more. They recently added tables outside to expand seating, otherwise take away is the way to go. Don't forget to order some pickled carrots and jalapenos. read more

Desert Cave - Chicken street tacos - Mexican Near Me - Cave Creek, Arizona

Best burritos! Great service & fast! Looking forward to trying the tacos, rice & beans

Moved from California, heard the nightmare of trying to find an authentic place. Well, as far as the basics I think we found it. Got a bunch of carne asada street tacos with green and red salsa and some guacamole and chips. They gave us some marinated carrots & jalapeños. All was excellent. Service was basic but good and friendly. Ambiance was more of a to go place although there is a few outdoor tables. Will return. read more

Went this am for first time. The burrito and tacos were wonderfu. Both my son and I were amazed at the quality of the food and the friendly service. It very close to what you might find if you hit a street taco stand in Mexico. Sophisticates might not like it and they could use real silverware to cut the burritos rather than plastic, but if you go for the food carry out or eat in, it''s the real deal. Both of us give it a five out of five for food and cheerful friendly service Very economical as well. Erik and Erikson Nystrom by read more

Great Burritos! Had the California and my son had a pork burrito- both fantastic! Very friendly staff - will be back!

Had a wonderful breakfast burrito at Desert Cave Mexican Food this morning. My wife and I were able to share one and we both had plenty to eat. Great tasting food, great value, and excellent service. The team at Desert Cave is extremely courteous and had my to-go order prepared very quickly. Highly recommend!!!! read more

Being a transplanted Illinois gringo, I have never really been a fan of breakfast burritos. For me, a Denny's Grand Slam or similar is usually the way to go. However, I rode past Desert Cave over the weekend and saw a Grand Opening sign. I hadn't really noticed the restaurant until fairly recently. I read the positive reviews on Yelp and decided to give the place a try for breakfast. My wife and I are big fans of bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwiches, so I ordered a Bacon Breakfast Burrito (bacon, egg, cheese). The young woman at the counter and the gentleman at the grill were extremely friendly. The wait was pretty short for a made-to-order item. The burrito: Big, hot, tasty, and filled with lots of bacon and eggs. My wife and I split the burrito and were satisfied. The salsa we got was supposed to be the red salsa, but I think we were given the hot salsa instead. It was pretty hot. Verdict: Excellent experience. Outstanding service and a great breakfast burrito. On my next stop in, I will likely try the Carne Asada Lunch Burrito or the Cheese Enchiladas Plate. Note: The restaurant has a new menu that now includes some additional items that were requested by customers. This place is certainly worth a visit if you have never been here. Adios! read more

Some of the nicest people in town, always welcoming and always remember my order when I walk in. Best burritos I've had

Small hidden place. Menu is limited. We had their breakfast chorizo burritos. It was HUGE! Filled with delicious eggs, chorizo, cheese, added potatoes too! I only ate half and saving the rest for later. They offer two types of home made sauce on the side to accompany my burrito. Both were pretty good. The staff were super friendly. This is a very small place. No tables inside. They do offer one big picnic table outside in the shade plus a few random folding chairs. Wish they offered other Mexican meats like carnitas or chile verde. As for right now, it's only carne asada, chicken, or chorizo. Next time, we'll try their lunch burritos. You should come here! read more

Desert Cave - Breakfast chorizo burrito - Mexican Near Me - Cave Creek, Arizona

Amazing little hole-in-the-wall spot in Cave Creek! They are definitely a new kid on the block, but I hope others stop in for a bite because this spot was so good. My partner and I each got a burrito and split them (they halved them for us otherwise we would have made a mess lol). Grilled chicken with guac, and the California burrito - both amazing. I recommend the green salsa for the grilled chicken and guac it was SO FRESH. The red salsa was perfect with the carne asada and cheesey potatoes in the California burrito. We also got the pickled carrots and jalapeños were complimented both burritos nicely. Chef and teller were both super nice to talk to and happy we stopped in. Will happily come back to try more things on their menu! read more

Desert Cave - California Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Cave Creek, Arizona

Highly recommended. Great Chorizo burrito and it was huge not to mention very friendly staff.

Great food and great service. Let's you call ahead to place your order so you aren't waiting at the restaurant. No tables inside and only have seats to wait but it doesn't take too long for them to make the food. The sausage breakfast burrito is my favorite and their sauces are good but extremely spicy. Very fresh though. read more

Amazing food & service!!!! I'll be back every Thursday to treat my team with the awesome breakfast burritos

Food was incredible! People working were really nice as well. Went on Monday and already planning to go back on Friday. Tasted so fresh and hit the spot! Manifesting that they add Mexican street corn on the menu. read more
