    Fish tacos
    Shawndean B.

    I was on this side of the Valley with a friend and we wanted to get some tacos when we came across this restaurant. He had the beef tacos and I had the fish. It was 2x1 for tacos!!! The food was delicious and the service was pleasant. If only I had room I'd order dessert. The place was nice, clean and very welcoming. (His tacos didn't last so no pics)

    El servicio muy agradable y el lugar limpio y la comida muy deliciosa está recomendado para que lo disfruten

    Camarones Culichi
    Troy A.

    I was looking for something new and just like that I found it. I already cannot wait to go back. The menu is filled with all kinds of delicious food to try. I wanted all of the Camarones! I order the Mojarra frita, my wife selected the camarones culichi and my little chose the hamburger plain with fries. The food was so good and the best part of it was the fresh salsa...so bomb. The waitresses were serving us happily even though we showed up an hour before closing. The menu was fairly priced and the restaurant overall was extremely clean. Yelp tip...check in and get 10% off

    Spicy Alfredo

    Parecia sopa calduda envez de pasta alfredo. Era mas caldo que sopa.. siempre venemos y pido lo mismo pero esta vez estaba diferente

    Tostada de camarón cocido
    Glow S.

    Great place for mariscos the servers are nice and the pricing is decent! The tostadas de camarón cocido are my favorite there

    Molcajete beef chicken and shrimp
    Sofie S.

    Food was good but the fajitas strips in the molcajete were to skinny, could of been thicker. Michelada was tasty. Service was friendly and attentive. Prices are reasonable. There is a small bar area and several TV's in the restaurant. I enjoyed it. I don't know if I will come back since I'm from California.

    7 mares
    Yezy M.

    From CA and when looking for seafood thru yelp this place was one the 3 options. Read reviews and were exactly as experienced. Service was friendly + location clean. Used my 10% yelp discount and no questions asked! Way to go!. 7 mares was tasty and warm enough. Camarones con crema- ah just ok. Modelo beer was very very very cold. Loved it. Did I say a very cold beer ?! Highly recommended . Bye bye AZ

    Yes, Yes, Yes! Today, my husband said let's try this place…read more I said ok! As we got closer, I realized I've been in the area several times. I have never ate at any of rhe places though. You order at the counter and the food comes out to the table. You can tell this place is family owned. The owners, whom I assumed were there tonight, were lovely people. While we waited, the woman who took our order brought out a basket of chips with refried beans and fresco queso on top with a side of salsa. Woah! What? Epic. But wait! A few minutes later, a precious girl with the most warm inviting, and beautiful smile came out with 2 warm, homemade corn tortillas, with salsa and cheese for us. These were just complimentary extras we didn't expect at all. Soo good. The restaurant is a humble place. Cute, clean, inviting and roomy. There is an inside seating area and an outdoor section. Someone was grilling meat out front. I think, the owner. I ordered a chili relleno combo. It comes with rice, beans, tortillas, and a drink. Hubs ordered two carne asada tacos, and a carne asada sope. I didn't try anything my husband ordered. ( I was laser focused on my meal lol) But it looked really good. He said, you can tell, they make their food with love. Yes, yes, yes, you can. My dish, was the best chili relleno I have had the entire 5 yrs I have been living in AZ. And the beans were phenomenal. Honestly, I prefer eating at places like this. We came for an impromptu date night. I can say it was one of the best meals and date nights I've had in a while. Thank you. Y'all are gonna see me alot. :)

    Lately, I haven't wanted street tacos but the crispy hard-shelled ones of my native San Diego. This…read morefriendly, cozy restaurant more than delivers. No matter how busy, the wait is never long but your food is made to order. They have an abundant salsa bar and, if you sit outside, an employee is cooking up something on a plancha. We don't know what. We have only ever sat inside or carried our tacos home. Next door there's a modern bakery next door with cakes, bars, cookies and traditional Hispanic treats. We're looking forward to checking it out at some point. Stay tuned!

    Pretty good mole offering. For some reason it's hard to find a really good one here in Phoenix.read more

    We went here for the first time yesterday as we've heard good things about their brunch. We waited…read more20 minutes to be seated which was fine even though they had plenty of open tables available. Staff were friendly when seated and ordering. We ordered chips and Gaucamole and were given something else instead. When my husband asked about it the server said we were given the wrong thing but we said it was fine and we would just keep it. We ordered food, my husband a breakfast burrito and me the chilaquiles. I had asked the server which sauce he would recommend as they offered three, and he had said the red was spicy so I chose it as I love spicy foods. It took 35 minutes for our food to come out. Once it came, my chilaquiles had green sauce on them, I stated that I had ordered red sauce and the server picked up the plate to take it back and got a little attitude with me and said I'm pretty sure you said green but ok. I then told him I'd keep it if it was an issue but he continued to walk away with the plate. He came back shortly after with red sauce and I thanked him. However, I was disappointed with my meal because I had also ordered my eggs over medium (cooked whites/runny yokes) and they were basically hard boiled with cooked yokes. The red sauce also was not even spicy but lacked any flavor at all honestly. So I was pretty disappointed. As soon as we left after eating and paying my stomach felt off, I got sick when I got home and stayed sick all night. I was fine before coming here and hadn't eaten anything else that day so I know it was from eating here. Needless to say we won't be going back here. If you want good brunch and especially good chilaquiles go to Park Cafe not too far from this place they have the best I've had so far in the area.

    I was raised in Mexicali and I been living in Az for over 15 yrs and I can say I have never tasted…read moreanyplace that their tacos as exactly Chicali style tacos. Just like back home just like street tacos from Mexicali. No combo meals no burritos only tacos . And their aguas frescas Horchata & Jamaica super good not to sweet is just perfect and what's even better no other place does this is FREE refills. I was shy to ask for a 3rd refill but they were super friendly and they did it. What can I say about the tacos they were great asada had flavor and really good I had to get a second order cause that's how good they were. Had a quesadilla con carne asada, and that was delicious. I normally never get a quesadilla any other place cause I'm not a fan of quesadillas or how they make it but here I LOVE it. I had to get a second one as well cause it tasted just like how they make it in Mexicali. The tripas super crunchy and delicious as well my husband couldn't resist to get a second order as well. We have never been to a taco place that they make it crispy and that it actually has flavored. They even have a little cart that has guacamole, salsas (which are really good the darker one is spicy but delicious) onions, cabbage, cilantro, limes, radish for your tacos is self serving. So you put what you want in your tacos. Staff super friendly and ready to help you, the inside seating super clean and they even had seating outside just like back home. Music wasn't to loud just right but I did feel like I was in Mexicali for a moment. I don't get paid or anything I'm just a real person who will give you the honest truth about my experience. We will definitely go back but next time I will bring my mom and my Tia who are born and raised in Mexicali to get their honest opinion. I definitely recommend 100/100 so worth your money and time.

    Street Tacos anyone?…read more Damn this place has now made it on my places to return when travel throughout this country for work. Tripa tacos, perfectly cooked and to be honest I should've gotten more. Pastor tacos, not bad in my opinion, I've had better but they were still pretty good. Sincronizada, just like a quesadilla but this one I had was mixito. Packed with flavor and when I return I'll be sure to get it again. Chicali beans, omg these are a must try! If you are looking for some really good street tacos please make this a priority, you will not be disappointed.
