Sadly, this will be my last visit to Tortas. We have been going here for over 10 years and I've left them a 5 star review years ago but over the past year it has gone downhill rapidly. I heard that there are new owners which makes sense. All the old workers are gone along with the welcoming atmosphere and delicious food we had come to know and love. On our last visit, some in our party got birria tacos and they all came with decently sized chopped bones in them! When we told the server about it, there was no apology - he actually said that is how they make it?!?!? Let me get this straight, you put choking hazard sized bones in your tacos and don't tell anyone to watch out for them? I've included pics and video so you can see what I am talking about. Tacos are my favorite food on the planet and I've had birria tacos at many, many places (including Mexico) and have never encountered multiple bones in any kind of taco for that matter. Unfortunately their carnitas tacos are dry and flavorless. The Super Taco is still pretty good (no bones), but this and our recent experiences here are making us cross this place off of our rotation going forward. Tortas, thanks for the memories, it was a helluva run, pero no mas. read more

Tortas Alugadas Guadalajara has such a beautiful, authentic Mexican atmosphere--it feels like a little piece of Mexico! The food was flavorful, the staff was friendly, and there are cute local shops and fresh aguas frescas nearby to explore. The only downside was the food came out at different times for our party of four, so we couldn't all eat together. Overall, a great family-friendly spot with lots of culture and charm! read more

Found this gem while looking for tacos and decided to give it a try. As others mentioned it's a little confusing trying to find the place, but just let your nose guide you inside It's like you stepped into a restaurant in Mexico with the workers busy, yelling out orders, smells of fresh food coming in the back and can't wait to order "everything". Didn't take me long to order once I made up my mind (10 minutes lol) but I finally settled on tacos, happy burrito and green chile burrito (yes it's a lot of food, but hey I wanted more than that and had to settle on these to give a fair review) Friendly staff, clean surroundings, great options to choose from the salsa / fixins bar. Even if you're not in the neighborhood give them a try and see for yourself how good they are read more

Sadly? The Food quality has gone down big time. Last few times I've been here I have not enjoyed the food anymore. Not sure if they have new cooks or what but that sucks. I don't mind the increase in price cause that has gone up 2 times what it used to be. read more

A hidden gem inside the Mercado! They have a plain variety of different stores that service, cash, checking, bicycles, a flower store, cell phone stores, natural, herbal medicines, sports uniforms, and a salon. There's also a jewelry store. They have a graphic design store here as well. It's almost like a little mini mall. But the highlight of everything is the restaurant! They serve some of the best authentic tacos in Chandler. This is definitely a hidden gem and one of my favorite places to take friends and family. It's located off **Arizona Arizona Avenue tucked away in the corner so it's kind of a hard spot to find, but there's plenty of parking available. If you're in the mood for authentic Mexican food, I would definitely stop by! The Torta Milanesa is my absolute favorite! The Pozole and Camaron soup is delicious. Tuesdays, they offer the special tacos de Carne Asada !!! Support local!! read more

Customer service is a little rough - not super attentive. The food was good - I got a torta de milanesa, it had 2 pieces of breaded steak and the ingredients were fresh. I also got a crispy potato taco and it was a little small so if you get them - I recommend getting 2-3 tacos but you can tell they are homemade. I was happy with both items. read more

I've had my eye on this place for a few years now and I finally went to try it and I am so glad I did! Originally, I wanted to try their torta milanesa (breaded beef) but when I asked which is better between the milanesa or carne asada, the lady at the register said carne asada. Omg, if you haven't tried their torta yet, it's a must! It was so flavorful!!! The carne asada was perfectly seasoned and tender. Wasn't dry at all. The chunks of avocado were fresh and bright, lettuce was crunchy, and the grilled onions were soft and sweet. There was a thin layer of refried beans in there too. I usually don't eat beans and didn't know that was going to be in there but it actually went well with everything else! Top it with some red/green sauce from the sauce bar. Honestly, it didn't really need any sauce but I love food saucy and spicy (the sauces weren't spicy at all though). The torta was pretty big. I saved the other half for later. It's located inside of a market. You'll see it as soon as you walk in. Plenty of tables if you want to eat there. Service was great. Friendly workers and friendly people inside too. I will definitely be back again to try the milanesa next time! read more

I was confused about the entrance of this restaurant but when entering the mercado, there it was. It felt like a hole in the wall. I tried the Happy Burrito for breakfast, which was filled with steak, chilaquiles with green sauce, beans, and cheese. The burrito was quite large, and the tortilla was notably soft. There is a salsa bar as well. One thing I missed was eggs in the burrito, which I thought would be standard for a breakfast item. Nevertheless, the meal was satisfying, and I'm curious about the other dishes they offer! read more

Finally found some authentic Mexican food! Truly a hidden gem in Chandler. We came on a Saturday night and there were a few folks eating but it wasn't busy at all. It was super easy to order, the menu is expansive. My husband had the Cubano Torta and I had the Vallarta burrito. This burrito was as big as my forearm, no exaggeration. Filled with three types of meat, potatoes, avocado, and cheese, I could barely eat a quarter of it. It was massive. This spot is located in a small plaza with lots of other businesses. It was like taking a step into Mexico. Lovely staff, great food, and a truly authentic experience. We will be back! read more

Sort of a confusing place because it's tucked in a shopping area. We heard this place is great from friends and it was. I got a beef torta and it was a darn good sandwich. While we were waiting we realized that we were the only non Hispanic people in the place. I'm a firm believer if the folks of that cuisine eat there it's going to be good. The salsas had great flavors and weren't too spicy. The portions are generous. read more

I havent been in the area long, but finding a decent Mexican restaurant has been a challenge...until today. Tortas Ahogados came up on yelp & one of the first pics was of the ever illusive Torta Cubano. Few places make this & even fewer make it well. It looks great & tastes even better here. I will definitely be back to work my way down the menu. The torta is big, so some folks will want to share, but its a big menu, so you'll find something you love... read more

Wow!!!! Typically like to keep these little gems to myself. But, this place is legit. True authentic Mexican food. It's in an indoor mini-mart. So you know it's bomb! I ordered the cubana torta (under $9 bucks) It hit all levels of my childhood growing up in La Puente, Ca. As you're ordering your food, you have a woman making fresh tortillas. Gotta come back for tacos :-) Side note: menu prices are cheap. Anytime you can get a Carne asada torta under $8 bucks. #winning read more

Y'all, I've been coming here for 7 years. I bring everyone here. This is my favorite spot for delicious tacos! I have never had one thing here I didn't like. I love getting a side of barbacoa to go so I can snack on it at home. I get the tacos mostly as of late because I'm usually out running errands but I bring everyone I know here when I can. Maria and Alvaro are some of my favorite people. The place can be a little busy and a little loud sometimes because of the shops inside the building too but that doesn't take away from the quality of the food or the service. read more

AMAZING FOOD. Tbh at first I was a little hesitant to try but my childhood friend BEGGED me to go and I agreed. Thank god for her because that was DELICIOUS. I try to keep my judgements to a minimum and not be too harsh but no need because not only did I love the food I went in for seconds and ordered more! The service was good and actually pretty fast‼ the staff was kind and welcoming. I for sure will come back ASAP when I'm craving their delicious Tortas. read more

This Mexican restaurant in the valley is a hidden gem! Their carne asada torta was amazing, bursting with flavor. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere, nestled among small stores, a cool vibe. Definitely the best in town! read more

Still great!! Mexican comfort food as I visit frequently when I need a change up. The staff is always friendly and given that my Spanish is pretty weak, they still make me feel at home when I come thru. I sometimes want to stand at the register as they prepare food just to watch as it reminds me of several other home-style kitchens with my friends. This last time around, we had the Torta Cubana, Torta de Pierna (Shredded port, avocado & sour cream) & some al pastor tacos. All so good... We got greedy when ordering but managed to finish all but half of the Pierna Torta. Everything was good as expected. Remember, this isn't fast food as it's prepared once ordered but it's not a long wait. This place stays in my rotation. read more

Didn't know if we came to the right place. It's a little mini strip mall area. They have a few stores and then a food court area with sit down tables. Food is made as you order, so good! We ordered all the tacos with flour tortillas. You do have to put your own toppings. The tacos came with nothing but the meat on the tortilla. There is a condiment bar area. Red sauce is spicy! Love it! Carne asada tacos - 3 good but same as any Tripas tacos - 5 crispy Pastor taco - 5 juicy & flavorful Torta cubana - 4 did not disappoint, must try read more

Saw a tik tok about the tortas had to go try them. Was pretty good will go back and try other food on menu.

This place is So delicious. For me and my family was really comfortable eating here and enjoyed everything. Nice service too

Such a hidden gem! I had a hard time finding it, because it's inside what feels like used to be an old motel in the 60's, but I'm glad I was persistent and found it! This was my introduction to a torta ahogada, so I don't have much to compare it with, but I loved it! For those of us who don't speak Spanish, torta ahogada translates to a drowned sandwich. So it's a sandwich just completely doused in a delicious tomato based sauce. The meat was so tasty and tender. Definitely will make it back here to try some other stuff. read more

Wow this place takes me to Mexico! We were confused at first when we arrived, not knowing where this restaurant was actually located. We parked out in the front and headed inside. The inside contains several different mom and pop shops and the seating for the restaurant is located right in the middle. It was starting to get busy when we arrived and there were several other people waiting for their orders. The cashier was friendly and menu is pretty distinctive. I ended up ordering two grilled chicken tacos, one potato taco, and a bowl of menudo with chips. My friend ordered the milanesa torta with a potato taco, and my other friend tried four different tacos. (Buche, carnitas, lengua, tripas) My chicken tacos were decent. The chicken had no flavor though so I found myself pouring salt on them. The menudo was good and it definitely tasted homemade. My friends milanesa was delicious!! My other friend also raged that her tacos were good and that every meat was perfectly seasoned. The potato tacos were a no for us and they got soggy super fast. The outside shell is crunchy but they are then drenched in a red salsa, sour cream, and cheese. Definitely wasn't for us. The service from the servers was ehhhh not that great. The tables are old and wonky. We sat at a table that barely had any room to be able to move around. A ton of tables were dirty and so that made choosing a table difficult because the ones that were left, were crappy. By no means is this place fancy. The food is good though and prices are reasonable! I will have to be back for the milanesa!! read more

Tortas Ahogadas Guadalajara is a small family run, Mom & Pop fast Mexican place, located inside a tiny retail space along Arizona Blvd. Our office group hit this place last week during the HS lunch period. LOL. Yep I know, pretty dumb, huh? Tortas Ahogadas serves up some pretty great tasting Mexican faire and we just stood back and watched as the kids cleared out. This little retail space has various shops but the best part are the Mexican Soaps playing on the TV. Nice. We found it to be a fun emersion experience, without ever leaving Phoenix. The food is tasty, authentic and we just loved it. Today, we stayed with Tacos and Burritos, with a few extra off the menu. One of them, is this tasty potato filled tort, which we had for dessert. Our coworker ordered everything in Spanish and it was even nicer, that it was his turn to pick up the bill. LOL It's just down the street from Elmer's, another Chandler HS food institute and must if you are in the area. Expect to pay less then ten bucks, including a soft drink. Enjoy! read more

This is the most authentic Mexican food in all of Mexico not to mention AZ. The portion in my shrimp taco of tremendous Giant Shrimp was no less than 7. I don't even know how they afford to sell these shrimp for the price point. We also had a shrimp asada and pork burrito that was the size of two giant yule time Logs! I will return to you sweet and most affordable mistress of mi gullet. read more

Happy Burrito equals Happy Customer! I've eaten here several times, but my go-to is the "Happy Burrito". It's basically a burrito with carne asada, chilaquiles, beans and cheese. Make sure you're hungry too - I'm a big guy and I can barely finish this burrito. Not only is this burrito delicious, but they also add some chilaquiles, avocado, onions and lettuce on the side. I highly recommend giving this place a try. Enjoy! read more

Seems like most of the locals come here as I noticed many of them already knew what they wanted to order. My friend who used to live in Chandler brought me here. It's basically a small casual Mexican spot inside a mini mall. The menu has a lot of different options so depending on what you're craving they probably will have it. I ended up going with just 3 carne asada tacos with a side of beans and rice. Simple and basic. They have a salsa bar including different topics you can add to your meal such as cilantro, jalapeño, onions, and radish. I noticed that the cooks were homemaking fresh corn tortillas so I was excited to eat, and you can really taste the difference! Each taco had enough meat enough to make two tacos so that's something to keep in mind. The rice and beans were delicious and the beans came with chips. My friend got a side of guacamole that came with chips however I wish they included more chips with both beans and guacamole. This is a great spot to visit if you want a really good Mexican fix! Highly recommend! read more

The customer service was great! I really liked how the restaurant was inside a Mercado. Like a small market with other small stores around it. Anyways, I wasn't very impressed with the food, I had a Torta Ahogada, the bread was way too hard, I wish they would use a different style of bread. I've had Tortas Ahogadas before and I prefer a softer bread. I also had Tacos al Pastor and those were really good. read more

We ate here last night before a show at Chandler Center for the Arts. I had two fish tacos and my boyfriend had a torta Cubana. Oh my goodness, where to start!?! As soon as we finished eating and were making our way to the show, John said "that was so good that I could eat another one right now"! My fish tacos were so big that I opted to eat them with a fork rather than try to pick up with my hands. They came with rice on the side which I wasn't expecting. The torta was huge. It was messy and was literally dripping with goodness. He was silent for a bit so I thought I should check in and see how it was tasting. He nodded enthusiastically in return. This place is located in a small market with several other businesses, such as a hair salon, and dress boutique. We will definitely be back! read more
