Jalapeño Bucks is a local favorite--and it hits every single time!…read more Today I went with my go-to order: the combo plate with brisket enchiladas (no beans, double rice), plus a side of mac salad and some salsa. Absolute perfection. The flavors are always on point, the portions are generous, and everything tastes fresh and made with care. A perfect BBQ twist on Mexican classics that you won't find just anywhere. Pro tip: come when the weather's nice--it's outdoor seating only, and it makes the whole experience even better. If you're in the area and haven't tried it yet, you're seriously missing out. This spot never disappoints!

We have been here a few other times and is one of our favorite for their Burritos , we haven't tried the BBQ ribs or pulled pork sandwiches which I've heard are all just as good, today Jen & I shared the Bean & Cheese Burrito along with a cold Dr Pepper. Jalapeños Buck's has a newer look around it as many homes have been built, there's plenty of parking and outdoor seating, service was good very polite while ordering there's not much customer service needed as all seating is out side and everything is given to you at the pick-up window. I believe this business is ran out of a single wide trailer/mobile home as you see the employees working around each other in tight quarters, anyways if you haven't had Jalapeño Buck's be sure to stop by and give them a try, Have a great weekend.

We got a lime and strawberry margarita with tajin rims which was perfect on a hot Arizona night. We got the mini margaritas on the happy hour menu they were $5! We got the street corn and tacos, all the tacos were really yummy our favorite was the battered mahi. They have quite a big menu so we will definitely be back to try some others things as well.

Normally we go to Taco's Tijuana for amazing street tacos but this place knocks everyone in the area out of the ballpark due to the warm hospitality that you get here as well as more menu options. The asada tacos are really tender pieces of flavorful meat that I can't really put into words accept for yummy! I also noticed that they have shrimp tacos and the shrimp to tortilla ratio is perfect you get just the right amount of shrimp pieces to fill out the tortilla. It's a smaller shop but they have specials on Tuesdays and the customer service is fantastic. Everyone skip your local boring Taco shop and stop in and try this location you can't go wrong.

I was out doing some running around, and ended up on Gilbert Rd, north of Broadway, and saw a sign…read moreBirria. Im a sucker for Birria, so I stopped. When I entered, I was thinking I had made a mistake. The place was abuzz bit dingy looking. Ceiling tiles were water stained and dirty looking. The tile floor had some broken pieces and chunks missing. But, I was there. So I ordered two orders of the three queso birria tacos with consume, to go. The woman behind the counter was very pleasant and more than helpful. As I waited, I grabbed some salsa and limes from the fairy well stocked condiment cart. After ten or fifteen minutes, I got my order. There were around 6 or 7 people ahead of me, so it was a reasonable wait. I took my order and went home. This is where my opinion was changed. There was a decent amount of filling in the tacos. I took a sip of the consome, and was pleasantly surprised by how flavorful it was! No grease layer on top (like so many others I have tried), just a well seasoned and savory broth. I dressed my tacos with lime and salsa, dipped into the consome, and took a bite. What a pleasure! The meat was tender, juicy and well seasoned. Not overdone with the cheese. Just a great bite! Goes to show you can't judge a book by its cover. Well done Los Mayitos!

We went late at night and it wasn't as good as it has potential to be. The quesibirrias were so good for me. They were tiny and the juicy. They broke immediately after biting into it but it broke evenly to eat in pieces. We also got a FOOTLONG SONORAN HOTDOG. It's perfect for 2 people. I had an horchata that was so huge! Literally! But it was the last bit and it was TOTALLY worth it. It was refreshing and delicious. The only sad part was the bar has sooo much potential but the little tiny cups for lime and cucumber is so sad. It's the perfect size for their spicy salsas though. They are hot, so beware! Definitely has a lot of potential for sure. I hope to comeback soon when the birria is fresh! (;

The tacos were good, and one of my favourite touches was the blistered chiles, which added a nice smoky heat alongside the meal. This was my first visit, and I came away feeling like there's more to explore on the menu. Sometimes one visit isn't enough to get the full picture, and this is one of those places I'd like to revisit before making a final judgment. Overall, an authentic taco spot that's worth another visit to dive deeper into the menu. Saluti.

Had to take pictures in front of that for sure!! Walked in, very clean and loved the vibe inside with all the pictures of the owner and family from the start of the business. We obviously had never been there, my friend asked what the best items on the menu was and honestly the gentleman up there was not helpful or kind, he was on his cell phone told us two plates that were good but didn't look at us well talking so we didn't hear what he said! He continued talking and not even talking our order! The women came up took our order and was very kind! The food was great all three plates were delicious, I had the chicken floutas, my son had the carne asada fries and my friend had the three beef tacos beans and rice. Well we were waiting for our food a couple went in and they had never been there and the women explained the whole menu to them! I wish we had her when we asked or question!! That guy needs to stay in the back because he has no customer service skills at all! But the food and the vibe in the restaurant were definitely worth it! We will for sure be going back!!

I called the restaurant and spoke with the night manager, "Taco," to report what happened and requested a refund or replacement. My request was denied, and my concerns were not taken seriously.

I have also filed a complaint with the Maricopa County Environmental Services Department.

I need to visit more often.

This past Saturday afternoon we stopped by a Latin Grill in a strip mall in Chandler, just minutes…read morefrom Chandler-Gilbert Community College, and it ended up being one of those hidden gems you almost don't want to tell people about... but absolutely should. The crew is primarily from Venezuela, and the owner, Mike, who we had the pleasure of talking with, is originally from Mexico and moved here from Southern California around 2013/2014. From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was just as impressive as the food. My sons actually found the place on a YouTube channel, so we decided to swing by before heading to church and then Top Golf. I'll be honest -- when we walked in I was surprised the place wasn't packed. After tasting the food and experiencing Mike's hospitality, I honestly can't understand why there isn't a line out the door. We ordered two chicken quesadillas, nachos with carne asada and al pastor, two chicken empanadas, horchata, and churros with ice cream. My two sons are very picky when it comes to quesadillas, and both of them said these were the best quesadillas they've ever had. The tortillas were crispy but not overdone, the meat was tender, and the rice and beans were seasoned perfectly. The nachos were easily big enough for two people, and both the carne asada and the al pastor were phenomenal. The chicken empanadas were amazing as well, and now we can't wait to go back and try the other proteins they offer. One thing worth mentioning is that everything is house made. At one point Mike brought out his salsa matcha for us to try and... wow. He really should bottle and sell that stuff. This nutty, spicy Venezuelan chili oil was incredible. It wasn't overpowering at all -- it complemented every dish perfectly. I could honestly eat it on everything. They also cater, and they sell breakfast burritos daily at the gas station on the corner (I believe it's the Chevron). We'll definitely be trying those soon. The restaurant itself is very clean -- dining area, kitchen, and even the bathrooms. That always says a lot about a place. Needless to say, this has officially become our new go-to spot. My kids were already asking if we could go back later that night. We will definitely be back to work our way through the rest of the menu.

We were welcomed when we walked in & given a quick run down of their menu. It's very straight forward with options of tacos, burritos, empanadas, arepas, bowls, etc. I selected the Pabellon bowl with grilled & shredded chicken. It had rice, black beans, cheese and plantains in addition to the chicken, and came with garlic sauce. My husband got the Don Achiote taco plate with carne asada, chicken, & pork; it comes with a side of garlic white rice & pinto beans. We also got a bean & cheese empanada to share. All items were simple but very well executed. Their garlic sauce is really very good and made the bowl taste delicious. I'd recommend all three items. They have pick up & delivery options on their website, if you want to order online. It wasn't busy when we went so the food came out pretty quick. Overall, a solid choice. Stop by if you're in the area. We'll be back to try an arepa soon.
