Mexican in Phoenix
Showing 265 - 286 of 402Nearly a next-door neighbor to Jobot Coffee Shop and with the same vibe, this simple but hip little house turned eatery off Roosevelt Row from Jobot owner John Sagasta features chips with gourmet toppings and, like Jobot, offers late-night hours – staying open until midnight on weekdays and until 4 a.m. on weekends. With a […]
Eating at Oaxaca, you can expect more of an experience than a meal. The owner might be playing a boisterous game of cards right next to you, or a crowd might be cheering whatever Arizona sports team is currently playing on the big screen by the bar. The Mexican fare includes spinach and mushroom enchiladas, […]
So you want to go bowling, but the standard greasy, inedible alley fare isn’t up to snuff. How can you possibly keep slaughtering pins if you don’t have the energy to throw a 15-pound ball? At Let It Roll Bowl in Sunnyslope, there are plenty of lanes, a lounge with full bar and psychedelic art, […]
Ofrenda serves broadly Latin food with a Mexican focus and progressive slant in Cave Creek.
Gorgeous, Southwestern-themed hacienda-like restaurant featuring a tequileria with more than 100 types of distilled agave juice, and a vast, elegant patio with a captivating, flame-spitting waterfall. The food ain’t too shabby, either. The gourmet, house-made tortillas are some of the best in the Valley, and there are various, mouth-watering items on the bill of fare, […]
Otro Cafe, an early staple of Seventh Street’s restaurant row in uptown Phoenix, serves New American dishes with heavy Mexican accents. The all-day spot is owned and operated by treasured local chef and all-around nice guy Doug Robson, also of Gallo Blanco in the Garfield District. The place has plenty going for it: a formidable […]
Delightful haute Mexican eatery with a fun atmosphere, great margaritas on the rocks, and appetizers to make your tummy sing like a sailor on shore leave. The lobster thermidor quesadilla would make Napoleon proud, since he named the original dish. And those pork enchiladas in tomatillo sauce are the bomb, boss. Live Latin music Friday […]
This paleteria specializes in handmade Mexican ice pops in a variety of flavors, all of them made in Chandler. Betty’s paletas are crafted in small batches, using the finest ingredients, but never from canned or frozen fruit juices and never with nasty preservatives or coloring. The seasonal menu features ingredients from the best local gardens, […]
Paz Cantina offers inexpensive, casual-dinner-on-the-go food. There are no esoteric ingredients or surprises in its Mexican cuisine, which specializes in tacos and tortas. The carne asada taco is fine, with tender grilled steak sprinkled with onion and topped with a radish slaw. The restaurant’s signature pork belly taco offers a big, gristly lump of fat […]
Better loosen your belt before you set foot in Pedro’s, because the kitchen sure doesn’t skimp on portions here. From huge overstuffed burros to quesadillas oozing with tasty machaca, there are plenty of reasons to indulge. Not surprisingly, this casual Mexican joint has become a West Valley institution.
Pepe’s serves Mexican food that tastes like it was made in a Mexican village. They make enormously flavorful dishes, especially the riveting chicken mole enchilada. Green corn tamales are also first-rate, as is the Taco Monterrey, one stuffed with shredded beef and egg.
In the very early part of 2014 the Phoenix Burrito House opened its doors in the middle of the Melrose District, taking over the former home of James Beard Award-winning The Fry Bread House. A fresh coat of white paint and some loter
This tiny, airport-adjacent Mexican restaurant offers solid, inexpensive, and fresh food choices-although most everyone comes here for the tortillas, light and fluffy and flour-y good! We like that we get one as a side with combinations that feature tasty chile rellenos, beef or chicken tacos, and cheese enchiladas that are out of this world. Sides […]
This South Phoenix favorite is a little slice of Valley history. In the mid-’70s the place was raised from a takeout business into a full-fledged restaurant when the Vasquez family converted their house into a dining room. It’s been popular ever since, and that’s really saying something in a town that has more Mexican food […]
