I think I may have found the best hidden gem Mexican restaurant in Phoenix! The reviews weren't lying on this one folks! I walked from the hospital to wait for my ride and it was so worth it! I had burrito and fresh carrot juice. So fresh and filling and I ate every last bite! Did I mention, the service was attentive and friendly?

I’ve visited this restaurant several times now, and each experience has been a treat. Most recently, I brought my family along and we all left happy and full. I ordered a burger and a mangoneada, both of which were flavorful and satisfying. For dessert, I highly recommend the fresas con crema-they’re always fresh, sweet, and the perfect way to end a meal. One thing to note: the tables are a bit close together, so it can feel a little cramped, especially when it’s busy and you’re trying to navigate around other guests. This isn’t really a spot I’d choose for a quiet or intimate atmosphere, but it’s worth visiting for the food. The restaurant can get quite crowded and quite loud on weekends, so be prepared for a possible wait and slightly slower service during peak hours.

Everything was delicious! We got a couple tortas the milanesa de Res and the Hawaiiana and while the tortas were being devoured…. Just silence due to how much we were enjoying our meal. The Cóctel de Camarón was so tasty and fresh along with the Agua de Sandia. It was definitely worth the drive, everything was made to order the staff was so kind and welcoming.

The servers are beautiful Latinas, everyone looks sharp and super attentive. The Agua Fresca’s are absolutely perfect. Everything on the menu is awesome, this place will not disappoint your taste buds. Good for small and medium size groups. Sunday is normally super busy. The menudo is Bomb!!! If you’re looking for something a little different from the rest, give it a shot.

We have been to this restaurant for years and the food and service is always excellent. More recently, we took a group of about 30 friends for dinner and everyone loved it! Thank you to the the Manager Gloria for being so organized, responsive, and excellent to deal with! Outstanding food, fresh, authentic, and extremely flavorful, and an extensive menu for both meat eaters and vegans. You cannot go wrong with a torta, but other excellent choices include quesadillas de maiz (corn tortilla quesadillas, make sure to get it Estilo Del Rey style (green salsa, queso fresco, onions, cilantro, and sour cream)) and huaraches (like a Mexican pizza with beans, green salsa, onions, and queso fresco). Wash it down with fresh and excellent different styles of specialty drinks, agua frescas (natural juice, cremosas with sweetened condensed milk, or liquados (milkshakes)), or a horchata (rice milk plus cinnamon drink). And absolutely make sure to leave room for a healthy dessert like coctel de fruta with miel (fresh fruit cocktail with honey). We will be back, and often!!
