My work colleague and friend found this place that was in route to our hotel and had an upcoming Teams meeting so we needed to have a quick lunch. Fortunately, we came across this place and we were not disappointed. Food was prepared quickly and it was very tasty. We each had 2 carne asada tacos. Each came with two small tortillas and very generous portion of carne asada which ended up being like 4 tacos each! I had the Horchata drink that was homemade and delicious. The service was efficient and friendly. The place was clean and had plenty of seating for a small taco shop. If you're in the mood for tasty and authentic tacos, this place is one to check out! read more

Best well-priced Mexican food on the East Side. Don't waste your time with Jason's and make it across the street instead. $4 for a taco that is absolutely STUFFED. Carne asada burrito is my favorite. Inside is always very clean. Try the horchata too. Friendly staff, and the guy in the kitchen is always working hard. read more

Great shredded beef tacos. I am usually one that loves great burritos, but I have to say the tacos were excellent.

I was craving some taco therapy. Fitos provided and I was happy. Tender beef made for a perfect taco. read more

I love this place. It's one of the best fast Mexican places in the Tanque Verde area. Their Nachos Supreme is huge and delicious, and their carnitas torta may be the best torta I've ever had. I'm in here pretty much every week. read more

The food is always delicious and you receive it super fast! Everyone is always super friendly as well!

Food is pretty good, but there is some poorly trained staff with little manners. Don't mind trying place out again, but this was poor experience. read more

Fito's Taco Shop - Not a hello or how can I help you. Just stood there. I was not sure if she was ready to take my order or what. - Mexican Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Came here after a hike on a Sunday for lunch, not many people, quiet place to eat and a very casual place, parking lot pretty empty too. Order first, sit down, and get food once it's done, red and green salsas available for grabs too. Got a carne asada, pastor, and carnitas, friend got ground beef (hard) tacos. The first three came with guac and pico de gallo, the carne asada was super flavorful, probably would've given this place 5 stars if it's the only one I got. Pastor and carnitas were alright, and the ground beef one was flavorful too, came with a ton of lettuce and cheese on top too, quite wet though. Taco had a lot of meat. Tacos were a bit expensive, about $4 each pre-tax pre-tip. read more

Used to love love this place. Has really gone downhill on food and customer service. I always buy the same thing super fries extra Pico an Carne asada. Last time I got home an had nachos when I called guy said that's what I ordered. To bring back for refund which was 20 miles each way. Tried again today after a year and the meat was so over salted. When I brought back for full refund she said half burrito was eaten!! 2 BITES do disappointed and won't ever go back. Extra Carne Asads was 2.50 now 4.50 so French frie meal over 22 bucks! Ridiculous read more

The tacos were good but then I picked up this lime that obviously didn't get washed well. read more

The chimi I was looking for tonight. Usually I am weary about something rated around three stars but after failing earlier at Pacos I knew anything could be better. Fitos took my expectations and double downed. I went with a long time customer (fanatic may be appropriate) who gets the two ground beef taco combo. She swears by it and with a taste I could agree, solid flavor, but my preference on tacos is more towards lengua and corn tortillas. My chimi was prepared to my pickiness - shredded beef, crispy, add potatoes and chicken. You also get enchalada sauce with cheese, lettuce, guac and salsa fresca. Even when i got home the steam was rising from the perfectly cooked filling and fried burrito. This had plenty of both meats and the potatoes were perfectly firm. All of the trims made this an awesome make up session from prior disappointment and I will return for another picky order as they are nothing but kind and accommodating. read more

Do you ever just crave tasty, no frills comfort food that feels like a hug? If you desire crazy good shredded beef tacos that drip delightful juice down your hand, then head over to Fito's. The food is fresh, made to order goodness that will leave you full to the brim. I had the shredded beef taco and cheese enchilada dinner (served with refried beans and rice). The enchilada and taco swim in an insanely good enchilada sauce. That dark brown liquid would taste good on anything! I'm not kidding - I didn't lick the styrofoam, though. I showed restraint (yay me!). The lettuce and cheese are finely grated, which I love! The beans still had some that weren't mashed. Just good Mexican food. My husband had the two taco dinner, and they were great, but he didn't have that amazing enchilada sauce. Therefore, I had the better dinner. Just kidding - both dinners were complete winners. We also got chips and cheese with salsa. The salsa is super fresh, and the chips are crisp and covered with melted cheese. Yummy! Simple, good food fills the bill and the tummy!!! read more

We used to eat here probably 4 or 5 times a month, same order every time. Always respectful and sweet and I always leave a tip when I go in. Tonight we ordered our usual and this was sitting on my husbands paper, so I asked uhhh what is that, and him being a man thinking it was just an onion in the pico took it off his chip because it looked funny. I took a close look and realized what we have here is a crispy catapiller. I get it, things happen and not all things can be avoided, but in this case I'm really bummed. My husband called and just to let the guys know what had happened and before an apology we got excuses that they wash their veggies. Also fine, but my husband got frustrated because there was no apology given, once my husband asked the guy said he was "sorry" my husband got very frustrated because we were not even offered an apology let alone any compensation. The employee said " well if you use kind words man than I'm sorry and I could like idk refund your money" Terrible customer service. I get it. Things happen. But at the least you could say " im sorry" and maybe even offer a remake of the food that had the catapiller in it. read more

Food is really bland the meat is boiled and not good quality. SMALL PORTIONS not real Mexican food taste. I highly recommend POTOSINOS for quality and quantity and TASTE. read more

A go to for us for quick, delicious food - breakfast, lunch or dinner. The serving size is large - with the breakfast burrito, I eat half and then the other half the next day. read more

Today I stopped in to have lunch with a friend. I ordered a pollo asada burrito and he ordered a steak-egg-potato burrito. I had been there before and had eaten a breakfast burrito. The breakfast burritos were average and needed to have salt added for my taste. Today was different with the pollo asada burrito. It was above average and flavorful. I asked my friend about his burrito and he stated it was very good. I believe they hired a better cook and it made a world of difference. This place has 5 bench seats inside and a couple more bench tables in patio. I am giving 3 stars as I need a couple more tries eating here to see if maybe this was just a one time deal or this cook is here to stay. Hurry in and try that pollo asada burrito. read more

I can't believe how happy we were to find a neighborhood taco shop. Their stuff is fresh and their servings are abundant. Ate twice here and just tried it this week. Everything we've tried is really good and the beans seem authentic. read more

Absolutely thee BEST torta I've ever had!! The carnitas were very, very lean and the bread was so fresh! This place has great food but this was the first time I've tried the torta. Do your tastebuds a big favor and order one as soon as you can. You'll be glad you did. read more

Really disappointed for the extra charge to "toast " my veggie burrito especially since I said no cheese or sour cream which are probably the two most expensive ingredients that I am saving them from putting on the burrito.....time to head to another place....bummer read more

This place is a must place to go and get a burrito or taco , the flavor just hit your mouth differently, I would 100% recommend this amazing place. There staff is nice, clean , and always there if you need help finding out what's good. Keep up the good work fitos! read more

What is a Nico's doing so deep on the NE side of Tucson? Who cares. It's Nico's: it's tasty, it's fast, and you know what you're getting. In this case it's not open very late and I think it's a little more expensive than other locations. Still, it's in the middle of nowhere (near my house) and that is enough to make me love it. (Edit: I also forgot to mention their special! If you like Chile Relleno Burritos, wait until your try out their special, a Chile Relleno Burruto!) read more

YUM!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE the carne asada burrito and the sausage breakfast burrito (minus the potatoes). They also do good ground beef tacos and green chili con carne. The service is never cheerful, but it is normally fast. In spite of the unfriendly people the food rocks. read more

Was much better when it was Nico's....now it's Fido's and my Nacho Supreme is not the same...way less toppings except the beans....way too many beans. It's also much smaller than it was...sad...I used to go here several times a week. read more

They have never gotten my order right not once. They are also rude when you tell them what they messed up on the order and make you repay for a new fixed order, not worth the money. Customer service is also terrible and are very rude. read more

Amazing food and amazing service, at a good price too! Me and my friends always come here and the workers are the kindest and most hard working people ever! We come here all the time and fitos always has what we need! I highly recommend you check it out! read more

I love Fito's. Breakfast burritos, burritos, enchiladas, rolled tacos, chimichangas are all delicious. Everyone that works there is super friendly and the food is always prepared fresh. read more

The food is fresh and hot. Our orders were accurate. The environment is the typical "mom & pop" family style restaurant. Our burritos were good value (size) for the prices. It would have been soo much better of the items in the burritos had more in them. The potatoes had a steamed consistency which is never good in any breakfast burrito. The staff were friendly and the orders were made quickly. We'll give them another try some day, just not anytime soon. read more

I am a huge fan of breakfast tacos....but I may have just converted to breakfast burritos! In love with the bean, egg and cheese breakfast burrito!!! They make them fresh while you wait. They are hot, tasty and the tortillas are amazing! So much for low carb diet?!? They have some salsas to add amazing flavor to the burritos as well. I suggest the green salsa. It is spicy but a little sweet. Yum!! The guacamole is amazing as well! Wish I had a pic to post, but I ate my burrito too fast. read more

I have been going to Fitos , formerly Nico's for years. Awesome employees good food. Reasonable prices.

This review may seem a bit brutal, but I have to be honest. First, I've only ordered dinner items, and have yet to try any breakfast fare, which may sway my review. I can update later. My main issue is that there is little to separate Nicos or make it unique. I'm specifically thinking about there Carne Asada and ground beef tacos, which generally lack any real flavor in the meat. It's as if they avoid committing to strong seasoning, which is unfortunate. The chicken tacos on the other hand, are covered in a nice red sauce, which imparts quite a bit of flavor. The beef? Not so much. The refried beans are just that, refried beans, and I love them. The rice, standard fare. Listen, Nicos isn't bad, but it could be so much more. I just moved from San Antonio, where I ate a disgusting amount of Mexican, and there is little here to make it stand out. Commit to some strong flavors, grill that Carne Asada, and let's do THIS! read more

Let's be honest. Nico's is not fine dining. It's actually not dining at all. You go there to order, eat and go. That's it. End of story. So the story I want to tell is about a burrito. A breakfast burrito. A beautiful breakfast burrito. You see, once upon a time there was this HUGE breakfast burrito served on an immense, fresh flour tortilla. The burrito was filled with fresh potatoes, scrambled eggs and melted cheddar, all cooked up together on the grill and wrapped up like a yummy blanket'o'breakfast. Now, I was introduced to said burrito early one Saturday morning around 8am. It was love at first you-know-what. This baby was served piping hot with a side of Nico's standard little cup of hot sauce. (When was the last time you had to actually wait for a meal to cool down before you could enjoy it? It was that hot and has consistently been so every time I've been back.) All told? Nico's is fast, excellent, any-time-of-the-day-or-night fare. I would have given it the full five stars, but hey, you don't go there to dine. You go there to order, eat and go. That's it. End of story. read more

This place is classic Tucson fast food--and has saved my hide on many nights where I did not feel like making dinner! AMBIENCE: 2 stars. Tucson strip mall. It is a bit run-down and dive-y, but what do you expect? I would not necessarily stay and eat here, though it is nice to sit outside on the patio when it is not too hot! SERVICE: 4 stars. I swear the same person is always working the register--whether I come in for breakfast burritos and dinner. Register staff is quick and efficient at taking orders and preparing them. FOOD: 4 stars (for fast food). The breakfast burritos are THE BOMB (and available any time)--especially bacon/egg/cheese/potato! Quesadillas are big and tasty, carne asada is decent, beans are authentic! OVERALL: 4 stars (keep in mind, this is a fast food place, not El Charro, etc). We pick up breakfast or dinner here at least twice per month. read more

I love this place. Their shredded beef hard tacos are really good. That is my favorite thing there. There breakfast burritos are awesome, simple and delicious !
