Wow - really couldn't have told you the difference between these and actual meat tacos. Juicier than most and definitely more flavorful than any other vegetarian option I've ever had. The Freida tacos were alright - a little blander than I had hoped and wasn't trying to be anything other than a veg taco. Personally, get the Cuban tacos. You won't regret it. Promise.

Honestly, I wish I could give Yaquesita a little more, maybe half a star more, because this place definitely has potential. Their flavors are good, but compared to similar restaurants the menu feels a bit overpriced. For a party of three we ended up paying around $100, which felt like a bit much for what we got. The restaurant itself is pretty small with only about 3-4 tables inside, but the patio is a decent size and has a cute vibe. It's actually a nice option on cooler days if you don't mind sitting outside. Some items were better than others. The wet-style burrito was delicious and definitely a highlight. The quesabirrias were good, however the birria felt more like fancier shredded beef. It was missing that rich, spicy, slightly acidic, earthy flavor that usually sets birria apart from barbacoa or traditional shredded beef dishes. The bowl was just okay and had lots of lettuce. It felt more like a salad with a bit of meat, rice, and beans. Honestly, Chipotle does bowls better, and that says a lot considering the price. The nachos were good, but I've had better. Seis Kitchen has amazing nachos to share. That said, it's definitely a place I'd come back to mainly out of convenience, not because one particular item on the menu won my heart. I really do hope they continue refining the menu because the flavors are there and this place could easily become a standout spot. Personally I just think at the total price of my ticket other restaurants should not even have room in my mind during my meal. If you're in the area and looking for a safe bet where everyone will probably find something they like, it's worth giving them a try.

I can't say enough great things about La Botana! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warm hospitality and a lively atmosphere. The food is consistently excellent--every dish is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Whether it's their tacos, enchiladas, or specialty dishes, you can tell the kitchen takes pride in everything they serve. What truly sets La Botana apart, though, is the service. The staff is attentive, friendly, and always makes you feel like a valued guest. A special shout-out goes to Leyda, the manager--she is absolutely amazing! She goes above and beyond to check in with customers, making sure every table is taken care of and every experience is memorable. Her attention to detail and genuine care for guests really elevate the dining experience. La Botana has become one of my favorite places, not just for the great food, but because of the people who make it such a welcoming spot. Highly recommend to anyone looking for incredible food, top-notch service, and an unforgettable dining experience! read more

While it's only a small place, it's definitely got some huge deals going on. Everything was incredibly cheap which I really wasn't expecting and the food was excellent as well which is unusual when it is that cheap. They did some amazing tacos there and based on that alone I would go back there. I love tacos and they definitely did them perfectly. The place was quite noisy but in more confined space I suppose that's just to be expected. But in terms of the food, I don't think I've tacos that good in too long. They also did some rice with it, I really liked that too but my mind is completely absent of what it was called now. No doubt in my mind that I would go there again though, some of the best food around in Tucson. I couldn't compliment this place enough if I was tried, I thoroughly enjoyed everything about it. read more

I always like waiting for both of us to eat together but it was 15 min later that I had to get up and ask where was the other hot dog that mine was already cold and the server had the nerve to ask me well why u wait so long to touch ur food and this totally ruin my appetite. We waited to long and then I got attitude so when we are about to leave I left five dollars to cover for one soda because I wasn't about to wait ten more min for another hotdog and the server had the nerve to follow me to the car demanding her two dollars for a freaking soda hell no I'm ever coming back to this place read more

My family and I used to frequent Botana at their old location and always had a fantastic time. It was a great spot with lots of fun memories. However, since their move, we've noticed some changes. The salsa bar now offers fewer options, and it seems like several items have been removed from the menu. Perhaps it was just an off night, but the mini chimichangas tasted like they had been frozen and had a hint of freezer burn, if that makes sense. We're a bit disappointed, but given our long history with the old location, we'll definitely give it another chance. For now, though, what was once a 5-star experience is now a 3-star. read more
