Genuinely the nicest people working inside this great spot. I'm so happy with this find! We ordered online and got the quesabirria tacos, and barbecoa rolled tacos. To die for!!! Will be returning, thank you so much! read more

Maskadores Taco Shop - Tacos Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I'm a big fan of hard shell tacos. I found a spot in Phoenix. Ordered the three tacos: red chile chicken (meh), fish taco (meh). But their green chile beef tacos were so good. Their beans and rice could use an overhaul. If a Mexican restaurant can't perfect their staple beans and rice then it throws off the rest of the meal. It should be second nature, piece of cake, blind cooking to get the beans and rice perfect. Come on mi Amiga! Get it together. I'll be back for the green chile beef tacos. read more

Maskadores is a friendly hole-in-the-wall and a perfect place if you want to grab some authentic taco-truck-style Mexican food. You know a place is legit when it has a full salsa bar, and Maskadores doesn't skimp on the selections. You walk in and place an order with one of the two people cooking up meat behind the grill and then grab a table to hang out. Along with the street tacos and enchiladas (definitely recommend Christmas style shrimp), they have a secret kids menu option of a soft taco which our 2 year old loved. Service is friendly and fast, and we saw lots of what were obviously regulars wandering in to grab a quick bite. Maskadores is conveniently located on the drive back from the Desert Botanical Gardens to our home, so we'll be seeing them again shortly. read more

The food here was amazing! It was so good! I got the street tacos and did 2 of my favorite, carnitas and 2 the chef recommended l, the pastor. The pastor was so very good. I have to come back again. My son got chimichangas and said they were amazing. He got the Horchata as well and said it was one of the best he ever had. I gave the space five stars because the ambience was good. The staff was super friendly, the food came quickly and the price was reasonable and to top it off, it was beyond amazing.! I hope you all enjoy it too... read more

We ordered take out and were not disappointed. The chicken street tacos were huge- so much meat in each one it could be two meals! The taquitos with chicken tinga really hit the spot and the quesadillas were super good read more

Really good food. Great birria tacos. My combo was about 15 with tax. I thought it was slightly expensive. The food is really great though. Service is good not amazing or super welcoming. The place is in a shopping mall, steel table and chairs. I felt like I was in a place in Mexico City. The salsa bar could be better maintained. read more

Quick and delicious food. Must Try for those that are local. Quesadilla pastor was one of the best I've had in years.

Exactly What I Didn't Know I Wanted From the moment I walked in, the aroma had my mouth watering--this place smells like flavor. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and clearly take pride in what they do. The luchadores-themed decor is fun without being over the top, and it all ties together for a great vibe. I ordered the street taco special with a mix of five different tacos--each one somehow better than the last. Bold flavors, perfect textures, and clearly made with care. I only wish I had room for dessert... but they were already SOLD OUT (which honestly just makes me more determined to come back and try them next time). Highly recommend if you're looking for great tacos, fast service, and a place that gets it just right--even when you don't know what you're in the mood for. read more

I've never walked into a Maskadores and been disappointed until today. This was my first time at this location. The staff were not welcoming and seemed annoyed. The food was cold and the meat was chewy and hard like it was heated up from the day before. The screen they turned around for the tip was filthy, I didn't even want to touch it. Probably wouldn't go to this location. read more

Not kidding when I agree these are best tacos in the valley. I only tried the chicken tinga tacos but the meat quality is very good and soooo much flavor. I eat out often and have tried a lot of different tacos in phoenix, these are my favorite. friendly staff and quick service too. This is gonna be my new taco spot. read more

My first thoughts are to take heed when the nice lady who runs the place states, "the barbacoa is a teeny bit spicy!"... If you know me I live things a bit spicy but holy moly's this beef was spicy! On a scale with one being the lowest and then being the highest, these were an easy seven. I was so proud of my wife for eating two of her three barbacoa tacos. She mentioned she was so hungry from the morning hike that she thinks she just hammered them down so quickly she didn't even realize how spicy the tacos were. The store is in a rather large community,l but feels off the beaten path due to it's located behind a larger building. If you love authentic Mexican food then this is the place to try. We've been here once before so we must like to go here while in Phoenix. I've included pics from both visits. read more

Absolutely love this place, went there and had a couple tacos with everything on it and they had a nice salsa bar and some Agua Fresca to drink great service great staff read more

A big five stars for the service here, especially Miguel, who went above and beyond in helping me with a strictly vegetarian order. He was patient and understanding and then went and crushed some excellent tacos! We were in the area and stopped in for a bite, having completely forgotten that it was a Tuesday (read: Taco Tuesday). We took advantage of their 5 tacos for $10.99 special, and Miguel and his crew crafted some delicious eats. The tacos were fresh and flavorful, and you could still feel the heat from the flattop on those tasty tortillas. All of the ingredients were fresh, though the cream and guacamole stood out. A big thank you to Miguel for the amazing customer service. Wish more places had a Miguel of their own. read more

I wish I could tell you what tacos I ate but I asked them to give me a variety and it was awesome. I threw a scoop of each of the hotter salsas on my rice and beans and they were fantastic and super hot. The luchador vibes and music were perfect and the staff very kind. You should really check this out. read more

A nice Mexican taco shop with a very friendly staff. I ordered the steak breakfast burrito and it was pretty good and it was 11 dollars. I got everything in it and it's definitely a more unique breakfast burrito due to some of the add ins. They have a really good sauce selection and it's at a sauce bar so I ate there and it was a very pleasant experience, nice inside. read more

Protect this place at all costs, evey single thing is delicious, and the staff ia amazing and welcoming, and pro tip, always get the horchata read more

So glad they're finally in my part of town!! Since I'm working from home my visits to the Tempe location have been scarce! What a surprise to see them here!! I ordered the vinaigrette chicken tacodillas- a little spicy. I'm home now about to tear into my meal! First bite of the tacodilla- no fireworks. It looks pretty though!! But meh tasting. So with my order it came with rice and beans. The rice was gummy and the pinto beans were basic basic beans. I have to say I'm a bit disappointed. read more

I love maskadores so much. If I could eat here everyday I would. I love their food, service, and ambiance. Quick little stop for a big bite of delicious Mexican food. I've tried their tacos, but I always get a quesadilla when I come here and it never disappoints. read more

The staff is always friendly the service is always good and the food is AMAZING! This is our go to taco spot.

Delicious I have passed this little shop dozens of times but never havevstopped. So, today, I thought I'd give Maskadores Taco Shop a try. The interior is very unique, decorated with a luchador theme and the restaurant is very clean and the staff friendly and accomdating. On this visit we shared barbacoa and pastor tacos, rice, beans, cheese quesadilla, horchata and jamaica. The pastor tacos were amazing and the barbacoa tacos was just as good. The meats were tender not chewy, like at other places, and everything was very flavorful. The horchata and jamaica were delicious and tasted home made. Great service, delicious food, wallet friendly pricing. Stop by you won't be disappointed. read more

I'm happy that there is a new location near the Arcadia area. I knew I wouldn't eat 4 tacos yet I still got the combo and took some home. It would be nice to have ala carte options for individual taco purchases and to know the price of the guacamole before hand. It was $2.25 for a very small container (see photo) my receipt said it was a large size for some reason. I wouldn't purchase that again for that small amount. The tacos are what I love. The meats are well cooked and seasoned and everything is fresh. Since it's the first time getting the combo I was surprised by the rice. The rice didn't taste fresh and it tasted like instant rice. I have told many people about Maskadores for their tacos and I'll stand behind their tacos all day. I highly recommend the tacos and the horchata. The guacamole is awesome although overpriced. read more

I went to Maskadores with my husband and our friend. Our friend recommended it. We had never heard of them. We were pleasantly surprised. The food was very good. They had a lot of options. My husband and I both got the Chipotle chicken enchiladas. They were a little spicy but not too spicy. They came with rice and beans (choice of pinto or black beans). We enjoyed the meal and will definitely be going back. I only gave it 4 stars because the seating wasn't very comfortable and they don't serve beer. read more

We were looking for something quick later in the evening and the food was amazing. Friendly service and made to order.

We didn't dine at the location; however, we ordered the churros via DoorDash and they are a 10/10! Sooooo delicious! I ordered eight and when they arrived, I was thrilled to see the churros were individually wrapped in foil! ALL EIGHT OF THEM! The filling has the perfect consistency, not too sweet, and the churro has a nice crunch that gives it a change in texture. read more

We were working in this area. We saw the sign by the entrance and decided to give it a try. Taco Tuesday special, 5 tacos for $10.39. Got a variety. All very fresh and delicious. Salsa bar was clean and had a great selection. The people were friendly and polite. That with delicious food, got them a 5 star rating. I will be back. I saw items on the menu I want to try. read more

I recently ordered two carne asada burritos from Uber eats and was highly disappointed by the quantity of meat and cheese on each burrito...it was literally mostly flour tortilla rolled into small portion of meat. Additionally, the flavor on the few pieces of carne asada was suboptimal, it was tasteless. Their rice (which I ordered in the side) was tasty but know it is instant rice (clearly out of a box) doesn't take much effort to cook real rice. Overall I would say Maskadores is below average!!I would definitely not recommend, save yourself the disappointment and money. read more

PROS: really solid food, super nice staff CONS: wish I'd come here sooner, zero ambiance I love a good taco. I'm always seeking out my new favorite, and I think I may have a new contender! My husband and I have lived around the corner from this place for over a year and never bothered to stop in, and I'm not really sure why. Today we popped in for a quick lunch and I'm so happy we did! Upon first entering, I was very unimpressed. Ambiance score: zero, but don't let that deter you. It may smell like a Subway sandwich shop, but you'll be getting something so much more delicious than a $5 footlong. We were a little unsure of what to order, but the woman working there gave us great advice as to what's best. We got barbacoa flour tacos and a chicken tinga chimichanga. Let me start by saying their tortillas are just delicious! The meat in both dishes were moist and flavorful. THEN COME THE ADD ONS!!! I would definitely recommend adding lots of fresh elements to your meat/tortilla offering to brighten things up. They have so many delicious toppings, salsas/hot sauces - try a bunch! The tacos were delicious and the chimi was so crispy and surprisingly not greasy. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal and this is a definitely must try, especially for a fast casual joint. read more

Love this no nonsense spot. Staff takes care of you. Would be 5 stars if they were good about restocking the salsa bar. It's often out of key condiments. read more

The food is bomb the service is top notch and the ambience is amazing. I go there almost twice a week.

completely ignored me when I came in, ordered online and arrived well after the ready time and they hadn't even started my order. Had to wait and no one else was there. Very stingy with the salsa, Ive never been to a Mexican restaurant that gives you such tiny amounts of salsa or hot sauce read more

If you're looking for Mexican food don't come here! Tacos no flavor meet look and taste boil and the burritos not great either and the salsa have no flavors and taste weird will not be coming back. 5 tacos and a burrito $30 dollars no thanks. read more

I had just moved back in to the area and was craving a good breakfast burrito. Maskadores did not disappoint. I know their reputation is built upon the bedrock of their tacos, but I was left very satisfied. Charging the same for a breakfast burrito as a regular burrito might put you off, but trust me when I say you're getting your money's worth. You have choice of any sort of normal topping alongside the typical accompaniments. I picked the machaca and I was very happy to do so. Although I don't anticipate indulging very often so early in the morning, should I choose to do so it will be back at Maskadores. read more

Friendly and hardworking staff. Decent atmosphere, with insta-worthy luchadores wrestler figures. Sopes were a bit underwhelming but meat was good. read more
