    Honestly the best Mexican food I've had in a long time. It satisfied my SOUL. I am from Northern…read moreCalifornia and I don't like a lot of Mexican food in Arizona. But this place seriously nails it. Even the rice has lil corn pieces and so you might think it's "weird" but it's INCREDIBLE. Best flavors ever. The Camarón (shrimp) is super juicy and moist and seasoned with garlic and everything. I haven't had Mexican food this good In so long. I have been here for 19 years and going to this location since it opened in Maricopa. And every time I order something new I have an even better meal than the one before. Big portions, fast service. 7.8/10 chips and salsa. I wish they had a chunky salsa with it. The shrimp fajitas made my ancestors very pleased. I was in heaven. It's a beautiful family restaurant and there is live music at 4pm on Mother's Day. All day happy hour for Mother's Day. 2pm-6pm is the daily happy hour Margaritas are $4.75 or something like that. Amazing deal.

    My friend and I were excited to try out Plaza Bonita, we are senior citizens and absolutely love…read moreHispanic/Mexican cuisine. Tonight we decided to give Plaza Bonita a try. No one was at the counter when we arrived so we waited to be seated. The young woman who seated us was pleasant. Our waiter arrived 3-5 minutes with chips and salsa, I requested salsa verde which took 5 minutes and had to be asked for again. The waiter returned 5-7later took our order and returned 5 minutes later with our drinks. Then the white family of five arrived and were seated in the booth behind us. Immediately our waiter was there taking their drink order. The bus boy hurriedly brought them chips and salsa. Within 3 minutes their orders were taken and given to the kitchen. My friend and I began to worry what was the hold up with our order, our waiter rushed by with a drink order lower his head to avoid eye contact or any acknowledgment. Guess what happened next the white family received their order I told my friend I am out! No way was this acceptable. As we were leaving the greeter thank us for coming stop mid sentence when she realized we were never served. My friend ask to speak with the manager , the manager was our waiter. I am not sure why we were treated so poorly, we are quiet and respectful. We patiently waited for our order. The manager decided that we need to wait til he served the white family that arrived after us first, I feel like this money is green and the color of your skin should not be a factor. If you don't want certain ethnicity to come to your restaurant then you should relocate to a place that does not have a diverse population. In closing I would say if you don't mind being treated like shit go to Plaza Bonita! Disrespect is served in abundance!

    I finally made it to Karavela's which I had bookmarked forever! I make constant trips to Casa…read moreGrande and always wanted to try this place because I love Peruvian food. Well, today happened to be Tuesday and outside of their door they had posted specials and one was for Taco Tuesday. Three tacos for about eleven dollars and some change. So I took advantage of that and ordered one adobada and two chicken tacos. The tacos were brought out with three bottles of salsa; one green, two reds at different spice levels. The tacos fell flat! The adobada was hard and crispy with little flavor. The meat was cut too small in my opinion, which may have resulted in its crispness. The two chicken tacos were bland, lacked flavor. I did like the fact they were cut thicker and were meaty and juicy. But it needed seasoning. The sauces also lacked flavor. None were spicy. Even the small bottled red salsa which I assumed was the spicier one wasn't spicy at all. After this experience, I don't think I'll be back anytime soon, but you'll never know! Like I said, I love Peruvian food; so maybe that's where their forte lies!

    This place wasn't bad, I got the quesabirrias tacos with lomo saltado. I wanted ceviche, but they…read moresaid they were out. The tacos have to now be the 2nd best I've had around, definitely really good, and I drank the consume, so so good!!! The Lomo Saltado was different that what my father makes, but it was still 1,000% better than any place I've seen in Arizona! Everything was made fresh, and tasted really good! I'm definitely gonna have to keep an eye out for when they have the Ceviche on hand!
