    Fantastic place! Everything looks brand new -- furniture, equipment, and the exterior design are beautifully done. You can immediately tell the owners really care about this place. Some of the best tacos I've had in my life. The meat was perfectly cooked and the salsa was absolutely divine. I also loved the taco bar -- being able to add fresh toppings is a big deal for me. What impressed me even more was the service. They were already closing and had run out of onions and cilantro, but they still went out of their way to freshly chop a new batch just for my order. That level of hospitality is rare. Friends, if you're reading this review -- please support small businesses in America.

    My partner and I were on our drive home from vegas when e stumble upon this little town! We needed to go to the bathroom and just walked into the first place we saw which happened to be this amazing restaurant! we decided to stop and eat here and i'll have to say I don't usually write reviews but this place was too good not to. we both got the chicken which was perfectly cooked and very tender. they also have a whole table full of different salsas, toppings/ sides to choose from. such an amazing experience and if you're in wickenburg I would definitely recommend you stop here.

    Delicious food, easily best Mexican food in Wickenburg. Only complaints I have would be the odd shape/entrance of the restaurant and the chips/salsa are not free ($5).

    The patio dinning is lovely

    Food is sooooo bomb. I love the birria tacos and burro percherón. The cabeza is also really good.

    The Mexican hot dogs were different and delicious. We'll go back soon to try other dishes.

    Wow,we were welcomed at the entrance by a beautiful woman who asked us if we would like to dine…read more(with a huge smile)! We were offered fresh, warm chips and red salsa which were delicious. We knew right there that we picked the right restaurant. I asked the sweet lady her name. She says Lydia! We asked about the Chile sauce and she brought us samples. No one ever offers that in my experience. We both had our eyes wide open with desire to have more. So we ordered our tamales enchilada style with an egg! When you know, you know! Lydia offered us a military discount (usually we have to ask) she thanked my husband for his service. Our meal honestly was THE best we had during our entire trip in Arizona. I told Lydia that she was so sweet and thanked her for treating us like family! She must have sensed I needed a hug, so she asked me for one. Little did she know our trip to Arizona was to say our last goodbye to my cousin in hospice. I'll always remember Lydia and her delicious meal. Hope to return soon!

    Not sure what has happened to this restaurant but it saddens me to only give 2 stars…read more What used to be a great Nana's Special, is now not good at all. The red chili was terrible. The chili itself was not good and they use small chunks of pork, not beef and not much of it. The green chili lacked flavor. This used to be a very good dish. The prices have gone up above what it should be for the quality of the food and the prices are too high as well. The service is still though. Not going to visit here again and that is unfortunate.
