    El Tacazo
    Ryan D.

    I generally come here when I am working in South Phoenix in the mid day. It's a decent place for meetings. The owners are often on site. The prices are great. The food is fast and fresh and the ladies behind the counter are very nice and fun to converse with. They have me a flan for my birthday! Yo puedo practicar hablando español! Jajajajaja

    Heard so much about this place and finally ate here for my first time. It's very clean and surprisingly well taken care of. Great authentic food and the steak is absolutely delicious. I highly recommend for anyone eating here their first time. Relaxing dining hall with soothing music and good service.

    "Try my taco" - that's what the sign says.

    This Mexican restaurant offers good eatin' on the cheap. Located in a busy strip mall (as a detached building) in a busy stretch of South Central Avenue near Broadway, it was recommended by a Mexican friend who described it as being "closest to Mexican home cooking as it can get, for a restaurant." I enjoyed eating in this place because it is spacious for its size, a large illustrated menu hovers over the counter, the prices are low, the food is savory - the vinegar, cilantro, and other seasonings stand out without being overpowering - and they have great flan! Sure to be a preferred dining stop during my trips to the areas south of downtown.

    Yes!!!! Flauta plate. My fav.

    Love me some El Tacazo! I love that they make their food when you order it. It's great

    Carne Asada Tacos!! Very good!!
    Paula M.

    The restaurant is clean and presentable. The cashier's are always nice, proficient and professional. The carne asada tacos are sooooo good. Perfectly flavored carne asada with onions and cilantro. The corn tortillas are double-rolled to hold the mounds of meat. The lemon to squeeze on the tacos is perfect. Love coming here and will continue to visit.

    Cannot wait to dig into these chicken flautas!

    We were lucky enough to find this restaurant on Yelp, and it certainly didn't disappoint! From the…read moremoment we arrived, we were greeted at the door with a huge smile and seated immediately, even though the place was super busy. Our server was wonderfully bubbly, friendly, and gave great recommendations. I ordered the Al Pastor hash, and the unique combination of flavors was absolutely amazing. The owner even stopped by to check on us, making us feel genuinely welcome. My wife and I enjoyed our experience so much that we even bought some merch on our way out! If we're ever back in Phoenix, we will definitely be stopping by again. Keep up the great work!

My brother comes here often and this is actually his favorite breakfast spot! The best part about this restaurant? The amazing service! Each and every item I've been to this restaurant, the staff here is so amazing and kind to me and my family! I feel welcomed and they always manage to put a smile on my face to start my day! We need people like them in every restaurant! One thing to note about this restaurant, they only take cash. But if you so happen to not have any cash on you, they have an ATM!

    I come to this resort often with my kids and husband and I absolutely love everything about this…read moreresort. It's beautiful. The pools are amazing and the breakfast brunch is one of the best brunches.. I would like to shout out an employee. His name is John J. and works in room service. He always goes over and beyond anytime we are there and always makes our trips so much better. I would highly recommend this hotel and the employees make it that much better

    First off i just want to say that the staff here at this hotel are all absolutely amazing and…read morefriendly from check in to check out. My husband i stayed here for two nights as a staycation for his birthday and we needed it to reset and recharge. we've visited this property in the past and they are always so helpful and it's easy to get around, albeit the hilly parking might make those prone to anxiety a little wary. but overall, this was a great time away from our home. The reason i'm updating my review to three stars is because there is absolutely no enforcement of the 21+ rule at the adult pool. While taking a night swim on our last night, we witnessed two teenagers openly fighting and throwing f bombs at a guest who was trying to ask them to not leave their little sister alone in the pool while they cared more about their stupid tik tok dance. Parents and staff absolutely nowhere to be seen. This happened at 8:30 pm and the guest managed to hold his own against two spoiled brats. Please, Hilton, in order for your adult guests to try and have some peace and quiet away from spoiled brats, ENFORCE THE AGE LIMIT AT THE ADULT POOLS.
