One of the best hidden gems in Phoenix! Great quality, variety of taco/burrito add ons, and salsa selection.

This restaurant was not clean .. the food was not good. I spent over $30 for two burritos. One was just a veggie burrito - rice beans peppers and onions and the lady charged me for a "custom" burrito for over $15. You gotta be kidding. I like their sauces though .. that was the only thing I enjoyed. Salsas weren't good and the salsa bar was gross .. the whole line behind the glass in front of the grill was a mess. Should have been a clue that it was pretty much empty on a Saturday. Bummer! I was ready to have a new spot. Both my gf and I did not like our food. read more

Owner is kind, food is good, overall a good experience. I'd post photos but I ate it too quick.

This place is across from St. Joseph's hospital, so it was super convenient for me to just run across the street for lunch. The dining room is kind of cool, with mannequins dressed in luchador costumes, large posters of luchadores, and luchador masks. The galvanized metal on the wall and pretty painted tiles go perfectly. The woman working was very friendly, yelling a greeting as soon as you walk in. I ordered the carnitas quesadilla, which was really yummy. There is a small salsa bar, and this is where Maskadores really shines. I absolutely loved both the red and green sauces. They were hot, but had such a delicious flavor. There are a few of these places around, so I may go to a different location, but I will definitely return to try some of the other items in the menu. read more

Wow! Simply unexpected! Street tacos are good but this was above and beyond! This was a one woman show and she had a steady stream of people coming through. She was quick, accurate and friendly! The prices were good, but the FLAVOR! We were surprised at how good it was! read more

I love this place. It's always fun and delicious. Thank you for being amazing! I love the Luchador atmosphere and vibe!

Came here before work the other day. They made my burrito pretty fast. The place was nice seemed ok I don't stay. The music wasn't loud, which is good for me. I just ordered and left. I got my burrito as it comes( I do that to get the full effect of the food). I got the surf & turf burrito, it was good the only I don't like in it (which I thought I would) was the jalapeno cream- not for me, but it was good other wise. I was so hungry that I didn't even take a photo but the burrito was pretty good size that I ate some before work and the other half for my lunch time. read more

Accidentally stumbled upon this spot and so glad I did. The staff was very inviting and the food was incredible! The salsa bar was very tasty as well. read more

Such delicious food! Family owned, clean and cute decor. Hot and fresh bowls and burritos. Chilaquiles breakfast burrito and horchata latte

The rice, beans and chips were fresh. The mild red salsa was very good. The mild green salsa was amazing. The birria tacos were better then most that I've had but not the best. They could've been crispier, that probably would have made this 5 stars. I work in the area and I will definitely be back to try different items. Excellent service and a very relaxed atmosphere. read more

The food was really good. Was ready for pickup within 15 minutes and service was great!

The taco salad was great! You get a lot of meat. Tacos were just so so. I didn't like the rice. I'll go back for the salad read more

Shouts out to the owner (Esmeralda), I don't know how she does it all... Every time I visit she's doing 1 million things (while being extremely friendly) and I can only imagine this extends to prep too when the restaurant is closed. So impressive! I love her veggie/vegetarian burrito, with beans, rice, veggies she grills to order and as many toppings as you like as well as salsas/chiles from the salsa bar. Delish food thank you! read more

If you've never been and are a first timer like me, they provide their service like a much better chipotle. They literally build/cook you food right in front of you! I ordered cheese enchiladas with rice & beans. I also ordered two tacos, carnitas & carne asada. The friendly woman helping me, put my enchiladas on the flattop and got them cooking. While that was going, she got a sauce pan and put together my green sauce to start cooking. While that was on the grill, she got the meat for my tacos and well, you get the idea, everything getting cooked right in front of me. They have a salsa bar and fountain drinks that are self serve. Everything I ordered was amazing! Was disappointed that they only serve pinto beans. I will admit that I didn't care for the rice. It wasn't typical Mexican/Spanish rice but not white rice? Kinda like wild rice, maybe? Not a deal breaker but mehh, would skip the rice next time. Flavor and freshness was amazing and I will definitely visit again. read more

We stopped here before going to a high school soccer game for a late lunch/early dinner. It was nice and quiet when we got there and we were greeted right away. The menu had a lot of great choices but we went with the street tacos. They were out of the al pastor so we got the carne asada. It came with four tacos, rice and beans. There was also a whole salsa and station for add ons. All of the ingredients were really fresh and the meat was very tender and delicious. They put double the tortillas to support the weight of the toppings which I always appreciate, so you always get ingredients + tortilla in every bite, instead of one soppy tortillas or all your toppings falling out and you basically get a little salad leftover. If we hadn't been short of time I would have liked to get one of the mini cakes. They have little table toppers that show you all the different ones they have and they all looked delicious. I had my eye on the vanilla tres leches cake. Next time, I'm also going to order the mini chimis and the cake! read more

The best carne asada street tacos in the valley and it's not even CLOSE! This is a great location. Meat, salsa and tortillas are consistently fresh. True family owned and run GEM and it must be treated as such. read more

Asked for more rice they give 2 teaspoon more rice. Portions use to be good but not anymore

Out of this world flavor. I really hope this place is successful the owner deserves it. Highly recommend

The food I got was such a disappointment. I'm a born and raised Phx native and I'm Mexican, I know good Mexican food, this was not that. I ordered for pick up and got a chimichanga with the spicy chile verde beef and ordered it enchilada style with salsa verde, looked nothing like their promo pictures did and it was genuinely 99.9% rice and beans and I got a SINGLE BITE of the beef. Whole burrito was soggy and the rice and beans were bland had they not been drenched in the enchilada salsa. The pico was pictured on the side but it was put inside and it was overwhelming. I wish there was protein to balance out the portions and taste but that flopped. I also regretfully ordered a churro, the custard and churro itself was cold and dry. This was my first time ordering from here and the last. I'm sure the service is good but my first experience is based off the delivery and it was a 2/10 experience. read more

The cook was very clean and sanitary. We all loved our food. The churros topped it off nicely.

Food and flavor was amazing!!! Awesome guacamole. Super cute clean little shop. Very quick to get our order out. the ONLY drawback was the cheap silverware... the kind that bends and breaks. Made eating my giant burrito hard to do! Totally recommend this place but bring your own fork!!! read more

Quick, friendly service. Several meat options. I had the carne asada which was very good. Customizable toppings. I wish it was more clear how hot the various options were. Even the salsa marked mild was pretty spicy for my palate. read more

Some of the best food I have found in Phoenix. When they say spicy, they are not lying. Very fresh. Great atmosphere and service. I have been several times over the last couple of months while working in Phoenix and I plan to go again while I'm out here. read more

Our new go to taco spot (we've eaten here twice this week already). This location specifically is the best! The service is always great and very welcoming. You can add on any extra toppings or sauces, which I've heard is not always offered at other locations. My go to plate is the #4 tacodillas. Everything else I have tried (wet burrito, flour tacos, street tacos) are also delicious, but the tacodillas just hit different. It's like a mini cheese quesadilla made into a taco - simply amazing. The pricing is good too, each plate is around $8-10. The portions are large and some plates come with rice and beans as well. My only advice is beware of the green chile beef and any "hot" salsas on the cart - they are SPICY. All in all, I wouldn't be surprised if I came back a third time this week! read more

Hands down the worst nachos I've ever had in my 34 years of being on this planet. Stale chips. Barely any toppings Zero flavor on the salsas. It says (hot) next to them not even remotely close to being spicy. The meat was flavorless. They used this weird shredded cheese with what I believe was bagged shredded lettuce from maybe a grocery store. I wouldn't give this to a homeless person. read more

I had the green chili beef and it was amazing had a lot of flavor and the perfect amount of heat will definitely come back to try some of the other dishes. Took home a banana banana cream cake that was also super delicious. read more

One of the best Maskadores. Clean and friendly atmosphere. They're prompt and quick. Defiantly a go to.

The service at this location was excellent. The menu is pretty standard (ref pics) but they have large "cake" menu for dessert, the theme of the restaurant does not bog down the ambiance of a quaint local taco shop. I will be returning here. Often. read more

I was super excited to try this new taco shop. This area is in need of a place like this. I walked in and checked out their menu with a long list of varieties of different meat to choose from. I spotted taquitos but was slightly disappointed that they don't have any a la cart options. Every option is a meal. I chose the 4 street tacos so I could try different meat. I had asada, carnitas, red chicken and barbacoa. The carnitas was a stand out. Not too dry or fatty but perfectly juicy and delicious. I did like the red chicken a lot too, it's just shredded chicken in red sauce. After I ordered the gentleman that helped me took fresh tortillas and slapped them on the grill and took the meat and heated it up on the grill. There's many toppings to choose from including jalapeño cream cheese and they have a salsa bar too. I opted for the pinto beans as a side and they were not good. They had this terribly heavy Smokey flavor. The rice was just ok. I did love their tortilla chips! Fresh hot and crispy. The decor is totally cute. read more

It's been some time since I've been to one of the Maskadores locations-- was excited to stumble upon this location near worn! Tacos, enchiladas & chimichangas are great-- & they have hot carrots! Skip the rice & beans though. read more

This is our Wednesday go-to place for dinner. We usually order through DoorDash and it's amazing that the food arrives STILL TOO HOT TO EAT. They have never messed up our order and the food is incredible. So much that we just made it our Wednesday default instead of rotating through a few other Mexican restaurants. They can be spicy, but if you ask for it non-spicy for kids, it comes out perfectly. Salsas are excellent but VERY SPICY. Guacamole is my picky 9yo's favorite. (Note it is full of tomatoes.) Highly recommend the carnitas burrito, quesadillas with meat, or the nachos (real cheese and amazing fresh toppings). We have been known to order more than once in a week :) read more

Wonderful atmosphere and an amazing owner. It's wonderful having such a wonderful spot here.

This place has delicious meat burritos and rolled tacos well prepared and cooked just great, the employees are very assisting and real polite hard at work, the inside of this establishment is well nice too I definitely don't mind coming this place whenever I'm in Arizona. read more

Everywhere else next to it is closed rn so I decided to stop in (wanted Pho). Absolutely amazing. Tortilla was perfect. I'll go out of my way next time for this. Hole-in-the-wall burro w/indoor/outside seating. Carne asada burrito black beans/cheese/white onions/cilantro/cabbage/corn/sour cream/medium salsa. They have many other options for adds, but this was perfect! Mandarin soda, no beer. Bringing the kiddos next time. Prob what chipotle was supposed to be if it were local. read more
