This was our group's first time trying Sal & Teresa's after several people recommended it saying it's the best Mexican restaurant in the Show Low area. We arrived on a Tuesday about 2 ish & our party of 5 were immediately seated & offered beverages. 2 of us tried the margaritas they were tasty, 1 ordered beer & the other 2 had ice tea & Dr Pepper. Complimentary chips & salsa were also served. Hubby ordered the chicken enchiladas without cheese (dairy allergy) & sadly it was too spicy for him so he had chips & beans. I ordered 2 ground beef tacos (daily special) and sadly they were just ok. I think they needed to change the oil because it gave the shells a less than pleasing taste. 2 friends tried the cheese enchiladas & taco special & again it was just ok. The only person in our group that truly enjoyed their meal was the one that ordered the chimichanga he said it was delicious & would order it again. No, we didn't complain about our food as it was just personal preference not problems with the food. Sadly upon leaving we all decided we would not be coming back again. And several of our party needed antacids prior to arriving home. read more

Sal and Teresa's - 2 chicken enchiladas with beans NO cheese (dairy allergy) - Mexican Near Me - Pinetop-Lakeside, Arizona

Found this Restaurant to be welcoming, and friendly. We were served by Max who was efficient, informative and helpful. The ambiance is inviting and relaxing. The Cheese crisp was flaky and delicious and the guac was fresh and tasty. I ordered the cheese enchilada combo plate with rice and refried beans smothered in green chile just like I have back home in New Mexico. Hubby ordered shredded beef and shredded chicken flautas- home made and tasty! The sopapillas are perfectly soft, not over done. If you want New Mexican style flare with plenty of flavor, this is where you need to go! read more

The great smells can be enjoyed from the parking lot. Fast seating, clean tables/menus and eating utensils. Great tasting food without the "salty" after taste. Friendly staff and an enjoyable atmosphere. read more

Friends suggested this locally owned Mexican restaurant for supper. They made a reservation and we got seated out on the patio right away. Beautiful outdoor space. Drinks were ordered (happy hour margaritas only $5 for a huge drink!). I ordered the poppers, which were delicious, but I wish the menu description would've included the fact that they were breaded. A chili relleno with green sauce, ala carte, was my meal. Delicious. My husband ordered the beef and chicken fajitas, which was a huge platter. Some of that came home in a takeaway container for a later. The staff was attentive and very friendly. read more

Me and some friends meet up at Sal and Theresa's for lunch to talk about the old days. The service was wonderful and food was amazing.. We all love everything ,plenty of food and great flavors in a lovely place...Thank you so much . TERESA read more

My mother recommended this place, she had come here with friends before and said that the fajitas were exceptional. So yesterday she and I came in for a late lunch. We ordered the beef fajitas and two beverages. As we looked around the restaurant, we could see that the ladies that work here are very proud of their jobs. Quick, friendly, totally hustling and on the ball, as they glided around greeting customers, taking orders and running food. And let's talk about that food, the portion was bigger than what my mom and I could even share. The beef had so much flavor, and the green peppers and sweet onions were tender. The corn tortillas were perfectly warmed and there were several topping options on a large plate with rice and beans. Our server was very friendly, all of the servers there were very friendly, busser included. I will definitely be recommending Sal and Teresa's to anyone looking for delicious, authentic and cooked with love Mexican food. Before we left I just had to find a manager and let her know that we had a wonderful experience. I will definitely be eating there again. P.S. The chips and homemade salsa were delicious. It will be difficult for you to have restraint and not fill up on that before you are entree shows up to the table. read more

Sal and Teresa's - French toast and side of bacon - Mexican Near Me - Pinetop-Lakeside, Arizona

Used to be the best in every category. Not so much on this visit. Food just OK. Service not great. I really miss how things used to be and wonder what made everything change. read more

The food and service here are always great! This is definitely our favorite Mexican restaurant in the White Mountain area. Everything we've tried has been delicious, but the chorizo is a standout- highly recommend giving it a try! They also have a very nice outdoor seating area, which is just perfect when the weather is nice. It's a great spot to relax and enjoy a flavorful meal. read more

Sal & Teresa's moved from Show Low to Pinetop-Lakeside recently. We live right around the corner from their new location & decided to give them a try. Pleasantly surprised with their new locale. We were seated right by the DJ (?) and a young lady brought us chips/salsa & took our drink order. I'll cut to the chase, Albondigas was . I hadn't had good Albondigas in quite a while & this was on point. Quite flavorful, nice meatballs, no rice, chunks of potatoes, carrots & zucchini. Hubs had the Enchiladas. He ordered chicken but got shredded beef. Other than that, he said it was good. The only issue we had was waiting for the check. No waitress to be found. Just a gool ol' local restaurant with a hometown vibe. read more

My favorite place to eat for authentic Mexican food! I actually think about their green chile fry bread taco's daily. My Daughter and her family moved to Pinetop so we went to visit for the month of July. This place was down the street from our rental. The BEST food ever! And the service was excellent. Can't wait to go back in December. The staff is very accommodating! read more

Food is excellent! Service is amazing. Friendly authentic food and great selection. I keep returning because i want a date with Briana the waitress but she is always too busy to ask! read more

I'm so glad they moved to Pinetop from ShowLow. I like the patio and love the different musical people they have that adds to the great atmosphere. Service has always been good and food is delicious. read more

One of our favorite places to eat. Service is great, food is excellent ( love their green sauce).

We used to love selling Teresa's when it was in Showlow. So when it moved, we went out to try it at its new location. We don't know what happened, but the food was just terrible. Also the new location which was probably owned not rented was in bad condition really needed a lot of work, which should've been done before they moved in to the restaurant. Anyway, at this time, can't say anything good about this restaurant. And unfortunately, we don't plan on going back. read more

Tasteless food, dry meat & way overdone fish. I'm a gringa but I make way better Mexican food with seasonings!

Excellent family restaurant! Fast and delicious and great service. Highly recommend this place!

I've been going to Sal&Teresa's for years. Their food is excellent! Been there for breakfast, lunch and dinner fish fry on Fridays. Service was always quick and pleasant. We go to dinner on Fridays for the fish fry dinner three or 4 PM. That's before the other dinner customers come in. Can't beat the food there. read more

We already have a few Mexican restaurants in town and decided to try something new. I had the chicken fajitas and my husband had the chili relleno. My chicken had an odd, almost gummy texture. It was cooked with bell peppers and onions with beans on the side. I was surprised at how bland the whole dish was. Not a chili pepper in sight! I tried adding salsa to the dish, but it too was completely flavorless. It just tasted like canned tomatoes. He said his chili relleno was pretty good, but also without spice. The service was so so. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time, but no one checked back with us after the food was delivered. When we were done, we finally flagged down the waitress for the check. A couple of hours after returning home my husband become violently ill and was up getting sick throughout the night. Based on other reviews it seems that our experience was an anomaly. But needless to say, we won't be back. read more

We went to Sal & Teresa's recently for takeout. I ordered the Enchiladas a la Crema, chicken.  The sauce was a bit spicy for me, so I pulled apart the enchiladas and ate just the chicken which was overly dry. The rice was not good at all, neither were the beans.  I have to say that I do believe that Sal and Teresa's has lost their edge since they moved. They are no longer a go to place for us. read more

Our first time in. The chips and salsa came as soon as we were seated. Both salsas were very good. My wife had the Sopapilla stuffed with chicken and I had the plate with Carne Asada and Shrimp. Both dinners were fantastic! The servers were very attentive throughout our meal. Definitely one of our new favorite restaurants on the mountain. read more

All we had was a taco and chips and salsa. Food was really good and the service was wonderful. Will be back. Need a table or 2 for people with dogs. Afternoons are nice. read more

Awesome food! It's hard sometimes up here to find food that is on par with the valley. I can honestly say Sal and Teresa's hits the mark. We aren't usually live music people but even that was really great. The singer are very talented and played great songs. read more

Food was okay. The server tried to convince us that the house vodka was kettle one and justified charging us $12. The bartender said no. He said it was $8. Not going back. Not willing to get scammed again. read more

We ate there for 1st time Friday evening. the Ambiance wasn't the best. where we sat we could see part of the kitchen, an oversized person sitting at the bar with their pants halfway down their butt. when the food came it wasnt that hot. in fact mine was lukewarm. lots of waitresses standing around talking. this place needs a renovation, big time. building is way to "chopped up" seating not that great. would much rather have been eating at Los Corales in Pinetop. chips were ok, but can't go wrong with chips. the Salsa was not good really bland. they served 2 little dishes of the same bland salsa until I heard a cust ask "do you have any hot salsa" then they brought them a little dish of hot. so I asked for the hot salsa. why they didn't bring it out to begin with who knows. anyway, won't be going back there. I wanted to recommend this place but not now. read more

food is fantastic, best on the mountain in our opinion! Great service - we had been going to their old location for years, but love the new location! read more
