Best burritos, El Pastor, and tacos in Phoenix! Sooo good. I've been coming here for about 20 years. It's an iconic Arizona staple and a must try if you haven't. Everything is really good! You can't go wrong with anything. Friendly service! 10/10

💯 Recommend! By far my favorite and best Mexican meal I've had in a looooong time! The quesobirria was on point! The beans and rice were perfect and tasted home made! The price was low and the whole meal was amazing and HOT ! It's sad that you rarely find meals served piping hot anymore and this place was legit! I live 30 minutes to an hour from this place and will definitely make the trip back!

When Im referring anyone here this is what I say: been open for over 40 yrs let that sink in, best El pastor tacos I've had you can taste the difference. They support the community and the community support them... Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.
