    Al Pastor Bowl
    Jonas C.

    Overall portion size was pretty disappointing given the $16 price point (tip not incld). The bowl was mostly al pastor, so the bean and rice to meat ratio was good. The pastor was tasty and almost made up for the price

    My hair stylist who is a bit of a foodie recommended this taco spot. Stopped for a quick bite at lunch and tried the ribeye taco. Absolutely delicious but a bit messy to eat. Order at the counter and food is brought to your table. It's definitely worth a try!

    The viral infamous rib eye mouth watering tacos is what brought me in to try this place. Theyre delicious but they look a lot bigger in their Instagram reel. Its a little deceiving. The pricing on them is worth it but the size in person seems smaller compared to the person in the reels. The bean and cheese burrito though for $12 is quite pricey for a simple 2 ingredients inside a tortilla. For the size that it was....that is not worth it. Chips and queso was also a tad on the pricier side as well. Service was good. Got our orders in and food in a timely manner. For sure come for the rib eye tacos (maybe the chandler one though because I think thats whats shown on their insta) try other tacos but for a bean and cheese burrito, no.

    Gordos Tacos is easy and conveniently located right off the 101. Counter service was fast. Drink options are limited to canned sodas, bottled water and few other bottled drinks. A huge menu of tacos, burritos and bowls. We ordered tacos for our first visit, 2 crispy shrimp tacos, a poblano style carne asada taco and a Baja fish taco also poblano style. So tacos were pretty slow coming out they look good. The tacos were great. 5 stars. Kitchen speed is a little slow so don't come here in a rush.

    The birria style quesadillas was unreal and the tacos were filled with meat. I would definitely recommend Gordo's if you want so authentic Mexican food. They were also very nice and helpful.

    I should have taken a before picture but I was so focused on just eating it!! lol it was phenomenal!

    I just went here for the first time. I ordered the Carne asada fries and OH MY GOODNESS!! It was so amazing! It was the perfect combination of melted cheese, guacamole, and avocado sauce! The carne asada tasted so freshly grilled! Even my husband took a bite and was blown away! The girls that work there were so nice! They both had such big smiles on their faces! The restaurant itself was so nice And clean! would recommend this place to anyone! Seriously 100/10!

    Ribeye taco is probably the best taco I've had in AZ the meat had so much flavor. Birria and Phoenix Cooks tacos were really solid too. Service is really friendly! It can be slow at lunch if there's a long line so prepare accordingly. The ambiance is nothing special, but it's fine. I wish they had more drink options!

    Tacos were delicious. Birria and pastor on point. Mexican street corn was a good sized serving. It's casual atmosphere with quick service.

    If you want the best birria tacos in Scottsdale this is the place nice big tortillas filled with their delicious shredded beef great consume good amount of cheese but other than that the food is bad the Vampiro tacos cheese was burnt meat was dry the asada taco was just gross seems like the meat has been there all day and their Nashville chicken taco was a super overcooked I know if I'm in the area I'm definitely stopping for those tacos though

    Nashville chicken taco
    Colleen R.

    Fast and fresh! We ordered carne asada fries, carne asada taco, and Nashville chicken taco. The meat was great quality and each ingredient was super fresh, crispy, and crunchy! Tons of meat on each dish! The service was outstanding! Smiles all around! It's in a little strip center so rather small but the decor is very chill, warm, and welcoming! We'd be back for sure.

They have a selection of burritos, ceviche, flautas and salads, but tacos are a thing here. I decided on a shrimp taco and a green chili chicken taco. Lunch came with a six piece sauce pack, so you can customize the tacos to your liking. I'd been thinking of Mexican food and these tacos were good! I had a long drive back to the hotel, or would have indulged in one of those icy cold and delicious looking drinks, like the Diego Margarita or Fuego Fresa. The servers are friendly, prices are reasonable and this restaurant is popular with tourists and locals. The air conditioning is perfect for getting out of the heat and the food and ambiance make it even better! They also have patio dining for cooler nights. On my next visit, I'll return to Old Town, one of the best areas in Phoenix. It offers great restaurants like Diego Pops--it's on my "must come back and try a margarita" list.

It has a lively atmosphere that's great for meeting up with friends. Servers are always friendly and food comes out FAST! One of the best things about Diego Pops is their happy hour, which runs every day from 3-6 pm. I also just found out they do $3 tacos all day on Mondays... what a steal! The food is always delicious. My go-to order is the braised green chili chicken taco and the charred steak tacos. They also have frozen margaritas, and I'm already planning my next visit because I HAVEEE to try the blue raspberry flavor. Reliable place to meet up with friends, enjoy good food/drinks without breaking the bank!

The only downside was that that bathroom was down for the night so we didn't hang out for a round 2.

I saw only one server, he was waiting about 3-4 tables and seemed to be responsible for the to go orders, as well. He did not welcome me or my friend with me, so we took a seat until he was able to help us. After sitting for about 5 or so minutes, he hastily set two glasses of water down in front of us without making eye contact or saying anything to us. I said hello and asked if we could put a to go order in. He very obviously rolled his eyes at this request, and quickly removed the waters from the table and walked to the ordering POS. He did not say literally any words. Just gestured for us to stand and meet him at the kiosk. We get up and follow him, and I begin by asking for a chicken quesadilla. I did not realize this was something not on the menu, but it doesn't seem like a hard thing to make at a Mexican restaurant ??? He replies rudely, "That isn't even something we have on our menu. Do you even know what you want to order?" I was not understanding why he was acting with disrespect, as neither my friend nor I had treated him with any behavior similar to his. He quickly says "I am going to give you guys 10 minutes to figure your order out and get it together." He leaves. We sit down, and I texted my friend what she wanted instead of a chicken quesadilla. He returns a bit later and we try again. She asked for a bean and rice burrito, so that's what I ask for. He slams his hands on the counter, and huffs and puffs about this order, too. He goes "WE DON'T HAVE THAT EITHER!" At this point, I am really upset with how I have been treated. There was not one point where he was patient, kind, or respectful in any category. This is 100% not how you treat patrons. I ask, "Is us being here too much for you? Is our order too difficult? We can leave, if that is the case." He says it is. We leave. I have worked in food since I was 15 years old. I understand the stress and urgency that comes with a restaurant. At no point have I ever made someone feel badly for ordering. That is what your job requires. If taking an order for a bean and rice burrito is so overwhelming, I would heavily consider a different career path. Disrespectful and incredibly unprofessional. 0/5 stars if possible :(

The al pastor had a beautiful balance of smoky, seasoned, and slightly sweet flavors, while the tripa brought a deeper richness and satisfying texture to the lineup. The carne asada quesadilla was another standout--crispy around the edges, melty and cheesy inside, with generous pieces of seasoned carne asada throughout. The salsa bar was definitely a bonus.

Definitely worth remembering when the late-night cravings strike.

    Sometimes the best meals happen because your original plan falls through. That was exactly the case…read morehere, and honestly... I'm not even a little mad about it. I ordered the veggie tacos with roasted sweet potatoes (skin on, which was absolutely the right call), pepitas, feta, and all the right toppings. Whoever prepped those sweet potatoes deserves a raise because they were cut into the perfect sized pieces. Every bite had a little sweetness, a little crunch, a little saltiness... it just worked. My dining partner ordered the barbacoa tacos, and I didn't even have to ask if they were good. The involuntary "Mmm..." after the first bite answered that question. Four tacos disappeared in record time, followed by, "I could've eaten two more." That's about as glowing of a review as you're going to get. Now let's talk about these tortillas. Handmade. Corn. Tortillas. Are you kidding me? They're the kind of tortillas that had me question every tortilla I've ever eaten. Soft, fresh, and somehow they manage to steal the spotlight even with everything else on the plate being so good. The chips and guacamole were excellent, too. The chips have to be made in-house and they disappeared at an alarming rate. The salsa that came with them had this smoky, fire-roasted, chipotle flavor that kept me reaching for another chip... and then another... and then suddenly I realized I'd eaten way more chips than I intended. The bottled table salsas deserve their own paragraph because they completely confused me... in the best way. They bring three to the table... a green, a red, and a darker red. I kept tasting them individually thinking, "Okay, these are alright." Then I started mixing them. Game over. On their own, each one was solid. Mixed together? That was the magic. I don't know if that's what they intended or if I accidentally stumbled onto the perfect combination, but from that point on, every taco got the salsa trio treatment. The only tiny hiccup was when we first walked in. We were greeted, asked if we wanted menus, and sat ourselves. We waited for a bit thinking someone would come take our order, only to realize it's actually counter service. Once we figured that out, everything was smooth sailing. Not a big deal at all... just something first-time visitors might want to know. Follow the sign "order here" I also loved the layout. You can actually watch them making the food, which somehow makes the wait even harder because everything smells incredible. Two tacos ended up being the perfect light meal for me. Could I have eaten ten? Absolutely. Those two statements can both be true. Meanwhile, my dining partner polished off four barbacoa tacos and was talking about ordering two more. We only ended up here because another place happened to be closed, and honestly, I'm glad it worked out that way. This ended up being one of those meals we keep talked about on the drive home. Oh and the bathrooms?. I walked in and immediately thought, "Whoa... this is a cool bathroom" The lighting had this pinkish-purple glow that made me feel like I'd accidentally wandered into a trendy lounge instead of a taco shop. I honestly wasn't even sure there was regular lighting in there and I didn't look... because the vibe seemed so intentional. Finally, the music. .. upbeat, dance-worthy, the kind that had me bouncing in my seat while waiting for my food. Between the atmosphere, the lighting, and the music, the whole place had me want to hang out a little longer. Zero regrets. I'll absolutely be back... and next time I'm ordering more tacos.
