    Taco Salad with red pork carnitas.  Loved it
    Brett B.

    After sampling a couple of their proteins, like I was at a Costco, I unknowingly choose one of the best Taco Salads I've had, in recent memory. I will return, Maskadores... maybe even while wearing my luchadore mask

    The dynamic duel!

    March 2, 2025 It has been a while since I've visited this location and I was delightfully surprised at their upgrades! They have expanded and grown. NOT only did they purchase the suite next door, they constructed a sleek bar with TV screens, modernized the interior and expanded their patio seating! It was clever of them to have built an opening from the kitchen to the bar area so patrons on both sides could be served more efficiently with minimum travel for the workers. I saw this in action and it helped run things smoothly in both areas. I ordered a taco salad and they happily obliged when I requested a freshly fried tortilla shell for my entree. The cooks or owners were working with smiles even under pressure from the sudden numbers of patrons walking in for lunch. The food topped my expectations. It was better than my last two visits to other Maskadores locations. (I understand that some are franchised.) My taco salad was perfect! The tender beef barbacoa, pickled red onions, fresh toppings and dressing were fantastic! You can request for as much toppings as you'd like. Their burritos and taco salads are large enough to get two servings in each! If I didn't have to leave right after lunch, I would have loved to indulge in a margarita. The ones customers were enjoying on the patio made me jealous. The food, the lady and gentleman that were working the grill left such a positive impression on me that I would definitely return to support these two.

    Salsas are hotties!

    Ricos Tacos aqui en Maskadores Taco Shop! What a better day than Taco Tuesday for this review! Have you ever had a taco that changed your life? Yea, me either. But this one came oh so close! And don't get me started on the Margaritas that not only were adorned festively (see photo) but downright pucker up delicious. Line was long but patience pays off when you see your food being prepared right in front of you. With Sooo many terrific food choices, and additional condiments (about 15) to top the dishes, I was nervous when it was my turn. Only way to fix that was by ordering several dishes: 2 types of beef tacos, pork tacos, 2 styles of beans, rice, wet chicken burrito (fabulous!) and an ocean of Margaritas. Whew! I need one now! SALUD! which is Cheers to good health! Miss Marta was marvelous as she accommodated so many people that night. The mood was festive and all tables in house were having a terrific time. Thank you Miss Marta! Maskadores is a Lucha Libre (wrestling with masks) term which is evident throughout the many photographic posters in the restaurant. Cool! Bring your date, bring your tummy (i did) and enjoy the food and drinks! Taco's...they are not just for Tuesdays ;) *plenty of parking *lines are sometimes long but move quickly *plenty of vegetarian choices *bar area ;) As always, thank you for reading! Enjoy life while staying safe.

    So this time was not so great for a place that always IS great (except for the prices). So they have regular meat choices for their tacos and they have signature meat choices for their tacos. Signatures are like fish, and shrimp. So every time we go in and my girlfriend orders tacos, she will get a shrimp taco and then a "regular" meat one like green chili or asada or whatever. So the guy working tonight seemed to have a real problem with that. He kept telling us that if she wanted a signature meat on one she HAD to have signature meat on the other! He kept saying THATS THE POLICY and he wouldn't let it go. Then he said, "I will go ahead and do it THIS time, but don't tell anyone" Well ummmmmm, SORRY! Ima tell the entire YELP COMMUNITY! I mean, what kind of "POLICY" does he think he's slingin? Bro, give me an ala carte taco with this on it, then give me an ala carte taco with THIS on it! What's the problem?! It really sucks because this place is right next door to our kids karate studio so we often drop him at his class then go next door and eat, then grab him something to go when we leave. I probably wont go back because if we get treated like this again? Don't even get me started.

    Wet Burrito in red sauce
    Mike F.

    I have had Maskadores a few times from takeout but this was the first time I had been inside. I got a wet burrito and being careful with telling them what to put in it, I finally found a combination that didn't burn my mouth off. The red and green sauces and many of the salsa are packing heat, so be warned. The food is very flavorful and for ordering, think Chipotle/Cafe Rio but much more authentic and spicy!

    Carissa B.

    Maskadores is still our local taco shop and we always bring our family and friends who are visiting as well. The food is always consistent and we really enjoy their tinga chicken and al pastor. I love how you can pick your own toppings and they are very generous; the tacos are always stacked. They updated their location and are still working on some renovations, overall the expansion looks really nice. Staff is always friendly and super fast even with long lines. Their churros are fantastic and always a must with your meal.

    Tonight our boy had karate class and right next door is Maskadores Taco Shop. I think it's safe to say this our new taco shop. Not only is it delicious, everything is very filling and always more than enough. Service is great and the place is clean never too busy. Love this restaurant and recommend.

    The new bar
    Susan C.

    I'm updating a previous review, when this little taco shop just opened. It was good then... and it's great now! In fact, they've expanded into to space next door and added a bar and outdoor seating. The various meats are so tasty! Their salsas range from moderately spicy to extra spicy. They've developed quite a local following. They're generous with the taco filling and the burros are huge! Try the flour tortilla tacos. And tonight we had mariachis!

    Red Chicken Hard shell tacos
    Mike J.

    Red Chicken Hard shell tacos. It was a 10 minute wait in line to order, but that's the price you have to pay at lunch time for some fabulous tacos with a smile.

    Ash T.

    Delicious tacos!! I tried a variety of different ones and all the meats were great! You get to add different toppings to your desire, which is nice.

    My dad, my boyfriend, and I went to dinner at Los Sombreros tonight and it was fantastic. Our…read moreserver said they were the only one working tonight and that they'd take care of us, and they sure did. The parking lot outside was parking so we thought we may have to wait, but inside was not busy yet and we were seated immediately. I ordered the smoked chicken enchilada as I saw it was a Yelp favorite and it was delicious. I ended up taking half of it home since we all filled up on chips and salsa before our meal. This restaurant is decorated so cutely. I love how there is a Baja influence with all the surf boards but also southwest appeal. There is plenty of seating and tables for big groups. Even with other people yapping around us, the noise level was perfect to enjoy company. 10/10 would recommend.

Everything tasted amazing and was served fresh and in a timely manner. We will most certainly be back (and you should visit, too!)!

    This review is for the totality of the experience…read more I made an advance reservation at Alma Scottsdale for a mid-sized group of 7 to celebrate a special occasion. Our party arrived right on time for our reservation, but we were not seated until 15 min later because our table was not ready. It took about an additional 15 min to get tap water for the table (there was not enough provided anyways), and to place our orders too another ~20 min. The food did not arrive until 30 min later. For context, we eventually learned that the restaurant was short staffed and the bartender was also operating as our waiter. When the food finally arrived, there was a mix-up on what was delivered. We had checked with the staff who delivered one of the dishes: we ordered the "wild mushroom" side, but what we received did not look quite like it. We asked clarifying questions x2, but were assured, "no, it is the wild mushroom." Turned out, it was the mushroom empanada that was delivered to our table, which we originally did not order. The management did rectify the situation upon the conclusion of the event when we were paying the bill, but to us, it felt a bit accusatory as if we intentionally wanted to cause a huge fuss about the final total, which was absolutely not the case. The food in general was delicious. If this was a more standard dining experience, it would have been 4-5 stars just for the food. The service was very subpar, and really colored the entire experience negatively, therefore the two star review. I understand that staffing shortages happen -- fine. My family has worked in food service as wait staff for 25+ YEARS, so I am empathetic. But for management to ring up our bill and then come confront us in an inflammatory manner, making us feel like we were wrong, on an occasion to celebrate something special, was extremely disappointing.

We…read morewere sat and waited for our server Donte to show up and I don't know if he was new but man he was not a good server. We first ordered drinks my wife got a traditional margarita and I got the jalapeño pineapple margarita. I mean there were ok but definitely have had better. The cups they served it in is not the appropriate cups for this drink. Along with the drinks came the chips and salsa which were surprisingly good. Now the food. My wife ordered the chimichanga with red sauce and i ordered shrimp tacos. Nearly 35 mins later and 2 basket of chips gone our food arrives. Her chimichanga was covered in green sauce not red like she ordered and my shrimp tacos were inedible. The shrimp was sooo hard I literally couldn't pull them apart and the crunch I heard while I tried to chew it (which is a clear indicator that it's way over cooked) grossed me out. When my waiter finally came around, after stopping at the table behind us and the 2 tables in front of us, I let him know how bad these tacos were. He took my food and exchanged it for birria tacos. I didn't have to wait long before my tacos arrived. Again they were good but not great. So as we finished our dinner the waiter was nowhere to be found. 11 mins later he comes outside where we were sitting didn't acknowledge us and once again went to the other tables around us. He does whatever it is the other patrons asked him to and goes back inside. When he comes back out he had a tray of drinks dropping them off at the previous tables mentioned and then once again heads back inside. Luckily I grabbed his attention prior him to completing going inside and asked him for a box. Now I was in the food business for almost 16 years and managed servers in those 16 years. Most servers understand when a patron asks for a box to go that usually means they're done and ready to go, so naturally you'd think as he's retrieving the box you'd bring the check. Nope not Donte he brings the box and walks away. Comes back later to pick up the dirty dishes and continues to walk away again, I had to tell him we wanted our check. With all the choices in downtown for food and drink id avoid this one for sure. To think we were up in the air between this place and Arrogant Butcher. Clearly we chose wrong. And one more thing when food gets returned for whatever reason a manager should make an appearance. Nope not here
