Popo's Mexican Restaurant never disappoints! I ordered the carne asada tacos, and they were absolutely delicious. The steak was tender, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the fresh pico de gallo. The rice, beans, and guacamole on the side were all excellent and made for a great meal. What really made the experience stand out was the service. Kaylin was outstanding from the moment we sat down. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. Great food paired with exceptional customer service is always a winning combination. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food in Phoenix, Popo's on Indian School is definitely worth a visit. I'll definitely be back! read more

I got three chiminchanga burritos one carne Asada had about only 4 ounces of meat and the two green Chile burritos with mostly juice and was told that they only put 8 ounces and was rude saying it like we was lying to them trying to get something free they are pricey and can't believe they treated us so rude they close at 9 as it says online and she was asking why I didn't call last night very rude if your gona eat there don't get takeout and eat there because they will treat you like if your trying to come up while they really did 71 dollars for 3 burritos or tortillas if you ask me rude management read more

It's been so many years since I have been here and I remember it was delicious. Today, in my opinion, it was okay Mexican food. I aid the bean burrito enchilada style and the tortilla was a little cold. My friend had the super taco, which is cool, because is is really big. He said the taco was just okay. Service was a little slow, but great to have the chips and salsa as we were waiting. In all honesty, the best service came from the busboy. He was working his tail off, constantly checking on us to see if we wanted or needed anything. The server was, well I don't know where she was. She took our order and handed the bill is all. All in all, the food was just okay. The food looked good but the taste was mediocre. Little parking in front but much more in the back of the building. read more

Had lunch at Popos Fiesta del Sol. They start by bringing you chips and salsa. Chips were perfectly fried and went well with the chips. I went with the carnitas sizzling plate. It came with your choice of tortillas, side of beans or rice, and a salad. The carnitas were juicy and tasty. They were not over cooked which happens a lot. The veggies were also great. Over all Popos was a good. Also be ready for their large menu read more

Javier was great! He served us, a small party of six, four different checks and he got everything correct! The place was packed and then we were the last to leave, sorry! Just a couple of friends catching up lol I had the albondigas soup and a side of roasted vegetables with an additional taco which I never ate because my eyes were bigger than my stomach! Sorry, it was weeks ago so no photos! read more

I went to this restaurant to celebrate my bday with 15 family members. We called 30 min prior for heads up that we would be arriving at 4 pm on Sunday night. We called for reservations a week in advance but was told to just call 30 min ahead. When we arrived, the place was not busy and our table was not ready. Our server was lacking skills and would come to our table saying, I have 3 waters who wants them? I got a Machaca and fish taco. The machaca taco was delish but greasy. The fish taco was fried a few too many times it was impossible to cut the strip of fish. I did not eat. I tried to complain but waiter never returned. My mom got taco salad and needed salsa and I had to get up searching for someone. Obviously must have been a lack of servers that day. We did tip well because it's probably not his fault. The chips lacked flavor and salt. The refried beans were dark brown and dry. My daughter warned us to NOT use the restroom. She had no details but we took her advice. On the bright side, margaritas were a big hit! read more

Quick lunch stop off and a colleague frequents this joint, and I know why... good carnitas, warm soft tortillas, wonderful smooth beans, and pico that is just right. Unfortunately it was a work lunch so I didn't try the margaritas, but everything else was good! Ambiance is strip mall hideaway, service was prompt and friendly, and prices were in line with the area... if I'm back, I'm back! read more

We went for a late lunch. The food was subpar. The service was terrible We went there because we used to go with my late mother-law quite frequently We could not finish our food as asked several times for containers to go. They did not care whether you come back or not. So we will not be going back ever again. If you want to be disappointed in restaurant then go there read more

It turns out that good Mexican food is not common in the west valley. That's not just my opinion, it's a sentiment voiced by scores of residents. We're about 50 miles from the Mexican border, and we have no great food to show for it. Until Popo's. Popo's is an institution in the Phoenix area. There are two of them on Indian School, both of them in "iffy" areas replete with pawn shops, check cashing, and homeless. However their food is famous for being some of the best family-style, traditional, almost-like-TexMex Mexican food around. Their clientele is blue-collar, families, all races, rich and poor. There's a reason they've been around some 40 years. They just took over the old Cantina Gueros spot near McDowell and Estrella. And not has it been a success! Place is packed at every hour. And the reason? The food. Popo's excels in a lot of ways, but it starts with their salsa and chips. They serve plenty of it, without the chintzy frugalness of many Mexican restaurants. Chips are hot and fresh and the salsa is excellent. Not too spicy and not too bland. It's cold and always delicious. Then, their rice and beans are excellent. You can tell a lot about a restaurant by their rice and beans. If those are crappy, all of it will be crappy. Popo's has excellent, flavorful beans, and fresh, tender "Spanish" rice. But what really excels here are the carnitas. Huge chunks of hot, perfectly cooked, flavorful pork carnitas with the crispy edges and alllllll the fat. They're scrumptious. Best around. Served in several plates, combos, appetizers, burritos, and more. Ya can't go wrong. Some other EXCELLENT selections: the chili relleno. Coated with egg and tender and full of flavor. Yum. The enchiladas- all of them. Can't go wrong. Fajitas are fairly standard but are really good nonetheless. Huevos rancheros are some of the best I've had. All the tacos are just great. And the flautas are fat and full of meat. You'll be happy with anything you order. So when you've given up on Mexican food, come to Popo's. Your taste buds will be glad you did. read more

The food was disgusting!! The mini chimis felt like they were just thrown into the microwave and doused in dirty oil. My wife was coming out of the bathroom and happened to look over to the bussing station and saw a roach coming out of the kitchen double doors . Never coming back again the manger Laura was an extremely rude and a nasty ass person I don't know how anybody would hire a loud mouth like that. The only okay thing about my experience was my server. read more

Came in for lunch with my daughter. We ordered lunch combo pick on with a chicken flauta! I did the rolled Steak Quesadilla! Both dishes were nice portions.

The gentlemen waiting on us was delightful! It was alittle pricey but again a nice amout of food! read more
