4-25-26 I would have given a higher review except the cook used way to much salt and the beans were almost inedible.

This is the ONLY Nico's I go to. I'm not sure what they do that other locations don't, but the food is superior to any other that I've tried. It actually ranks among the best Mexican food in metro Tucson...in my book/stomach. My Mexican husband agrees. We always get a 1/2 pint each of beans and rice. Fish tacos are our go to. I tried a carne asada taco and was not disappointed. The meat was well-seasoned and tender. The tacos are loaded with fixins, enough to make a mini nacho plate if you order a side of chips. The cashiers are always friendly, which adds to the experience. I'd post pictures, but the food is already half gone. read more

Taco salad with steak was good the shell was so greasy and burnt! I should've ordered the fish tacos ! Those are the best!!

Wandered in while in the area for a quick breakfast! I ordered their chorizo burrito and added beans and cheese to it and it was both flavorful and spicy! It's a very big burrito, so unless you're a BIG eater, you can definitely share it. Unfortunately, they don't serve coffee (boo!), so I had to go next door to grab a Starbucks in the grocery store! They should definitely think about having a fresh coffee pot on during the morning hours so their customers don't have to walk next door. Service was friendly and helpful. Seating in the restaurant is very spaced out. Restaurant appeared clean. They have a salsa bar with a red and green salsas to choose from. Overall, it was good. read more

Nico's Taco Shop - Mixed Shredded Beef Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Marana, Arizona

Breakfast burrito is very substantial and the sausage has great flavor! Fast and friendly service. Very clean.

I came here for a breakfast burrito. It was nothing special. You order at the front and wait for your order to be called to pick up. It is your typical Nico's as far as ambiance goes but it does seem to be clean inside. read more

Ordered Door Dash from here. It took about 25-30m minutes to arrive. I got the combo with a shredded chicken enchilada and shredding beef tostada. We also got a carne asada and bean and cheese burrito. You will not go hungry! You get SO much food. The burritos are as long/tall as the coke bottle. Everything was delivered in a timely manner and was tasty, however I would not recommend ordering anything crunchy like a crunchy taco or tostada if you are doing take-out, because it as a bit soggy by the time it got to me. I'm sure if it was fresh in the restaurant it would be really crunchy and fresh. Overall, not a bad spot. I would go dine-in next time! read more

Absolutely thrilled to have a Taqueria in this part of Marana. We need more thriving businesses to support this growing community. The word is already getting out. Around noon there was a line. Prices are reasonable and I would say competitive. They offer a pretty good menu and a nice variety of options to choose from. You can get burritos, tacos, plates, etc. ample clean seating inside. And super friendly staff. We got two burritos: carne asada and carnitas burritos. They were delicious and filling. The family loved that guacamole and fresh pico de gallo was included in both of them. Our neighbors got the breakfast burritos and said they were wonderful. Will definitely be back to try those soon! Nico's so glad you are here! Welcome to our neighborhood! read more

Showed up on 11/23/25 at 8:30 AM and the door was locked even though there was someone in the kitchen area ignoring my knocks (They open at 8:00 AM.) This is not a professional type place - not sure how they can stay in business..... I would not recommend this place. read more

I ordered a veggie burrito and it tasted very fresh, it was a pretty large burrito too. Definitely worth the price. Very clean inside the restaurant. This is one of my new favorite places for a quick burrito read more

The shredded beef tacos were amazing! Best tacos I've had. They were very quick and friendly too.

Ordered 2 chicken tacos and 2 asada tacos! What a greasy mess for the chicken! Didn't even finish one! The asada tacos were overfilled and needed a spoon to eat what fell on the plate. Tacos are in the name of this establishment and they can't even get that right! Won't be back! Don't waste your time! read more

They make the best breakfast burrito in the town. The owner is also super nice and friendly. He's also willing to modifying your orders to your liking and he always know I love extra crispy bacon. read more

They still have good items on the menu; the service is good; however, last time I was in they cut corners with the rolled tacos--pretty much on par with what you can get in the frozen food aisle. Carne AsadaFries are still the best in Oro Valley. read more

Depending on the location, can be hit or miss. My review is based on the tangerine and thornydale location. Quick, clean and consistent.

Small restaurant with limited seating next door to a Fry's. We stopped in for a quick lunch a bit before noon. I ordered the #1 combo of beef taco and cheese enchilada, it came with rice and beans. My spouse ordered the taco salad in a fried shell. We also ordered chips. The chips were plentiful and hot with just the right amount of salt. You can get your own salsa which is either green or red, both were okay, but I wished they had pico too. The taco salad was pretty large and my husband really liked it, he remarked how fresh the shell was and that the guacamole was good. I found my taco crunchy with a well fried tortilla but the meat rather bland and had too much lettuce. The cheese enchilada was big but not hot enough so the cheese was not really melted. Rice and beans were standard and fine. Service was quick but the lady taking the orders wasn't that friendly and instead of cleaning up after people left she preferred to scroll thru her phone, limiting tables to sit down at even more. I probably wouldn't go back but I think spouse would. read more

Nico's Taco Shop - a container of food - Mexican Near Me - Marana, Arizona

Good Mexican food fast. Always friendly and courteous. Just a good place for a quick meal.

Great, cheap, seemingly authentic Mexican burritos, tacos, and quesadillas. The interior is very basic but nice enough. The food came out quickly enough. This is a great place to go to for quick food. read more

Stopped in for a breakfast burrito for my husband and ended up not sharing it with him! The bacon, egg, potato and cheese burrito was flavorful and delicious! Breakfast burritos usually have too much potato but this one was spot on! Will be returning for more. read more

My Son never cared for Avocados prepared any way in any dish. He absolutely loves the guacamole in the street tacos here at Nico's Taco Shop. We usually visit the Tangerine/Thorneydale location in Tucson. Their space is very clean, they have the bottled Coke's and Sprite which is our favorite. The Carnitas combo plate is really delicious. The portion of meat is outstanding. Tacos are fantastic too!! read more

Amazing giant breakfast burritos I only come for the breakfast burritos and service is always quick

At the marana location I have stopped to eat 3 times over the last 3 months. I Ordered different items every time. Staff very friendly but food is not great! Chicken is dry , cheeses are not good. Breakfast burritos were the best thing in there along with the ice tea. Will not be back again sorry. read more

It is a good go to place for this area. I haven't had a bad burrito yet and I keep coming back. I

Went in this week and grabbed a beef taco and was sorely disappointed. The meat was very dry and flavourless. The shell was fried well, but that's about it. The kid with the dark curly hair running the register was friendly, but really dopey and had ZERO personality. The establishment was nice and clean on the inside, but completely empty. No positive energy at all inside and i wouldn't be surprised if this place is closed by next year. Plus, no taco Tuesday specials, which is really weak. You'd think since you're the only taco place on this side of town, you would have specials. read more

I had a shrimp burrito and my husband had the California burrito. Both were delicious! The guacamole is great, not too spicy. A wide variety on the menu, pleasant staff, and our order came quick. I'll definitely be returning! read more

A few weeks ago my friends and I came in for dinner. The lady working refused to answer a question about what was in the pollo asada burrito (if there was rice, beans, etc) we didn't push it and just ordered our food. We sat, ate, and we're headed out the door and heard the same woman call my friend a "puta". I'm not sure why anyone thinks that is acceptable. Also, we're from Tucson. EVERYONE KNOWS SPANISH. We know what you said and you should be ashamed. read more

The food tasted great with a wonderful variety. We tried their red chicken tacos and they were delicious. I will be visiting the store often. read more

I normally do not like / eat much Mexican food (in spite of living in Marana/Tucson), but the food here is excellent, fresh and priced reasonably. I stop by on the way home from work. The food is very tasty and of high quality. read more

Wanted to try them out. Well when they lost hours as 10pm and they are closed by 9:20 you got to think. Guess I'll have to wait to give a review for when they are open. But who knows maybe they will be closed at 1pm as well. Their hours clearly aren't up to date and it was a complete waste of gas to drive there. Maybe I won't try them again. read more
