    Love this place!! A little of everything!! Lunch, Dinner, desserts, snacks, pan dulce, aguas, and it's cleaner than most places that offer that much!

    Viva La Torta's! You never knew you could find such yummy food in a strip mall! We have done breakfast, lunch and dinner here and all of the above is great! The price is fair and the food is fresh and hot. The one thing keeping it from a 5-star is inconsistency. I have ordered the same thing multiple times and although it is always great, it is also never the same. Mostly it is cheese, sometimes it comes with and sometimes without. I prefer to always have the cheese!

    I ordered a carne asada torta with extra meat and an horchata to drink. The torta had good flavor...but I paid $1.25 more for extra meat and got extra grizzle instead (see my pic). I won't be back.

    This is by far the best Mexican food I've tasted (and I grew up in San Diego, minutes from the Mexico border). I'm still dreaming about the Tacos de Ribeye, quesadilla with chicken, and Arroz con Leche. Everything we tried was flavorful and value-priced.

    So so yummy. I had the tostadas con pollo on my first visit and was amazed at the huge portion I received. It was just supposed to be a snack but it ended up being quite a lot of stuff piled onto a perfectly crispy little tostada. The next time I went, I had the tacos de ribeye. Really amazing little tacos, perfectly cooked meat, and great toppings. It's hard to find stuff this good and this cheap that has consistency and cleanliness, freshness of ingredients, and great personality. ESPECIALLY out in the suburbs.

    Been a few times now and always friendly. Good fresh food and served in a reasonable amount of time. Items on menu that are not obvious to a non Spanish speaking individual are listed in English which is nice. I personally enjoy Mexican food, but do not enjoy having to eat out with a translator.

  • Paco C.

    I went to Tortas Paquime for lunch and I was pleasantly surprised to find that their food is borderline authentic. I ordered the Tacos de Ribeye plate and the tacos were small, the meat was mostly fat, and the red and green salsas available were not spicy at all. My highlight of the trip was the agua de limon, it was delicious! It tasted just like the agua de limon I used to drink in Mexico at similar torta and taco establishments.

    I wanted to try something new and I found this place. The food was fantastic and I can't wait to go back to try something new from their very large menu. The staff was very friendly and the place was very clean. Their homemade horchata is mouthwatering. I recommend Tortas Paquime to anyone looking for a great place to eat and I look forward to returning.

    I happened on this place two years ago when in town to enjoy spring training. I live in Chicago, and there are some wicked good Mexican joints in town, but Tortas Paquime is right up there with the best casual Mexican in Chicago. Food is fresh, people are nice, and the variety of menu offerings are uniformly superb. The place is clean as a whistle, too (not always the case in Chicago). I am headed back to Glendale next week and can't wait to get back to Tortas Paquime. If they had one here in Chicago, I'd be a regular.

    food is great here no matter what you order it speaks volumes when the actual food is better looking than the pictures.

  • Chris W.

    LOVE this place, the tortas are very good and a good value too. The bread has this sorta sweet taste to it and really makes the torta pop! Took my parents there when they visted and they hadn't had a "Torta" before and they really did enjoy something different!

  • Maggie P.

    Yum, yum...and yum. I have been meaning to write a review for a while and forget each time I go. Pretty much nothing but good things to say. The food is cooked fresh and right in front of you. I usually order a torta, but my friend and I opted to split a torta and quesadilla last time...delish! Lots of cheese and lots of carne. Went there the other week for a quesadilla and fries w/ cheese. Filled up on the huge portion of fries and only had a bite or 2 of the quesadilla. Brought home the leftovers for dinner, only to find out at dinner that my fiancé ate the ENTIRE thing, and NEVER eats anything with beef. I guess that says it right there. Again...yum.

    Great tortas and baked goods too - will definitely be coming back! Place is very friendly and locally owned too.

  • Michael S.

    Great food and at great price. I especially like the Tortas Milanesa de Res and the Horchata. They also have a little bakery inside the store.

  • Virginia D.

    Have you ever bitten into a mango that is so deliciously sweet that you want to repeat the experience? If you have then you'll want to stop by for a mango ice cream at Tortas Paquime. Best mango ice cream you'll ever have. Yes, the tortas are good and the quesadillas and the chilindrinas are too but I LOVE the ice cream at this place.. The mango ice cream is my favorite but all the other flavors are good also.

  • Martha D.

    I loved the torta mexicana, it's so delicious. I can't wait to go again for lunch.

  • Steve F.

    Im in the west valley and always have been so when im short on time and this is one of my go to places for lunch or simple dinner. Have not had a torta that was not good yet but my personal favorites are the hawaiian or the ribeye. They have agua fresca, mango is my go to but limon is pretty popular too. Last, the ice crean is fantastic also.

    One day my hubs and I was looking for something different. We are big fans of Mexican food in general and had this place bookmarked. It's located in a strip mall plaza visible from the street. Parking may be difficult during daylight hours, but we came towards closing hours. My first impression of this place is wow, this place is modern and open. It's not what you'd expect from a hole in a wall joint, which this is not. I ordered the rib eye tacos and it did not disappoint. Ample meat, perfectly moist, and those tortillas ...just amazing! There's a condiment/sauce bar too. I loved the red sauce because it was not too hot. Also, the fountain drink machine is located outside so that's another plus. There are some flat LCD TVs too for your viewing pleasure. For dessert, we shared a mango paleta (Mexican juice bars) and it was divine!! They have a lot of other flavors too and they also sell ice cream. When we come back, I hope to try some more. Very good prices and great atmosphere.

    Way out west, we're saturated with hit-or-miss little Mexican spots. Paquime is definitely a hit, specializing in sandwiches and desserts. So many kinds of desserts. First, I'd tried the chocolate chip ice cream. The consistency and richness of it lets you immediately know it's the real deal, and will be totally satisfying. I also tried the nuez or "nut" ice cream...I think it was pecan? I'm not sure. Could not be any more vague...it tasted to me like pancake syrup ice cream, which I didn't like, but my breakfast-loving dining companion fell in love with. After a few minutes, my quesadilla was ready (ha! I didn't even get a torta!). Instead of having precooked steak like a lot of the competition, it looked and tasted like it was made fresh to order. It was complete with tomato and avocado slices. I must admit it was a little skimpy--I ended up tasting everything *but* the cheese every other bite...but it was still tasting great, even if a bit on the small side. I'll update you when I actually try the main attraction here, a torta with fries. But until then just know that you're getting some good quality stuff for the price, and that even if you're just feeling pastries or ice cream, Paquime is still worth dropping by.

  • Deni G.

    Better then you might think. Tortas Paquime is clean, busy and has great food. The entrée's at Torta Paquime are reasonably priced, made fresh to order, and absolutely delicious. The carnitas and ribeye tacos are some of the best I've had anywhere and the tortas are not only delicious but are enormous as well. So be prepared to go hungry and have leftovers. Make sure you ask for a side of the pickled onions, jalapenos and carrots (they're free). You never walk away from Tortas Paquime hungry but leave some room for a dessert because the ice cream and pastries will satisfy your sweet tooth. Great service and excellent food, it doesn't get any better.

  • Joyce W.

    ¿Dónde es la peda? Over effing here. I've only been here a few times but I love it! I've had their quesadilla paquime, a few bites of my friend's ribeye tacos, their tortas cubana, and some other bites here and there. Everything I've had here has always been fresh and flavorful and the portions are decent for their price. As for their horchata... delicious and refreshing! Tortas Paquime is a casual dining spot that's always busy. Don't forget to make a stop at their salsa bar. They also have huge cases of baked pastries and a very impressive ice cream bar. I have yet to try their sweets but they look pretty damn amazing. The staff is friendly, the place is clean, and there's ample parking all around. Thumbs up for yummy tortas! ¡A huevo!

  • Kelly R.

    After several returns I have to say I'm definitely impressed! They are fully staffed and the customer service has improved. Everyone including the chef said thank you after I picked up my order today! I really like this place because the food is consistent and the portions are great for what you pay.The place is clean and everything on the menu is Delish! This is your best option if you are closer to Avondale to get fresh pan dulce, gelato, antojitos, and dinner for the fam. There is something for everyone and the food has always had me come back. I'm a sucker for service so I'm extremely happy they were great and offered to let me sample the aguas frescas. I will be back!

  • Tim S.

    My buddy at work has been hyping this place up. He told me that they had really good tortas and that the food was legit. I'm always down to try out a good torta. I headed on down and decided to check it out. I walked in, scoped out the menu for a minute and then placed my order. I went with a Rib Eye Torta, no mayo and I also went with an order of Papas Nachos (criss cut fries smothered in nacho cheese). My total was just under $12.00. They handed me my receipt, I grabbed my fork/napkins/water etc and sat down. Soon thereafter, my number was called. Here is how everything was.................. Rib Eye Torta ($6.99)- It looked fantastic. The taste of it left a lot to be desired though. This thing came with a 1/2 lb of rib eye steak, lettuce, tomato, jalapenos and avocado. This was presented on a nice soft roll. That was part of the problem though. The roll was incredibly tasty. It fell apart way too easy though. I've had that happen a few times at various places. They use great bread, but its horrible bread for the sandwich. Stand alone-=fantastic. Topped with meats and such=really bad. The steak tasted alright. It had a little bit of gristle/fat on it (rib eye usually does so it wasn't that big of a deal), and the portion was a little skimp. Seemed like less than 8 ounces for sure. The lettuce, tomato and jalapeno were good. The avocado was good on half the sandwich but the other half had brown spots on most of the slices. Why does AZ produce suck so bad? I picked around most of it and finished the sandwich. It came with a few homemade potato chips which were tasty. The sandwich overall though was just ok. Not worth coming back for that specific sandwich. Papas Nachos ($3.99)- Waffle/criss cut fries topped with molten cheese sauce. I really enjoyed these. The fries reminded me of old school Carls Jr criss cuts. The cheese sauce reminded me of Portillos cheese sauce (one of my favorites). This dish was delicious. Perfectly fried and seasoned potatoes loaded with a generous amount of gooey cheese. I would get these again in a heartbeat. They were the best part of my meal. Service was friendly enough,and the place was really clean. Would I come back? Eh...maybe? If I do, I'll definitely try a different torta besides the rib eye. I'm usually disappointed in Tortas though. Once you have had a Wash Mobile Torta, yelp.com/biz/tortas-wash… , nothing else compares! Sadly, I judge every Torta compared to Wash Mobile and maybe I need to stop doing that? Who knows. It is what it is!

    I am giving Tortas Paquime 5 starts. First off the customer service is always great. Staff is very friendly, area is always clean and smell of the food isn't bad either. I stop by this place at least 4 times a month just to get paquis tositos or how ever you spell it. & it is amazing with an apple soda !!! The carne asada torta is good as well with an apple soda. The deserts are always delicious and fresh. This place has a customer for life !

  • Kimberly G.

    Tortas Paquime is the ONLY place I will visit just to order the flautas ahogadas. Hands down are the best flautas ever.

  • Jade W.

    Finally decided to try Tortas Paquime. I did not realize how much business this place does. All of the tables inside were occupied when we arrived and there was a steady flow of people the whole time we were there. I ordered the twin burritos (1 green chile beef and 1 shredded pork with no guac), as well as the super nachos with carne asada (guac on the side) to share with my boyfriend. The twin burritos look like four because they are cut in half on the plate, but they are skinny so it's manageable. I really liked the green chile beef. The shredded pork was ok, but I wasn't a fan of whatever smoky spices are used in the meat. I added some salsa verde to help out the flavor. The nachos were great! Yummy meat, nacho cheese, and beans with sour cream on tortilla chips. Mmm mm! Simple and delicious. This little restaurant also has Mexican pastries and ice cream. I'm pretty sure we'll be back.

  • Sheena M.

    Checked this spot out due to me having some time to kill, being in the area and of course yelp reviews. I had the ribeye taco combo and they were great, cooked to perfection and included avocado and gac, most places charge extra for this so this was an added pleasure to my experience. I definitely have this place on my spot to revisit after my visit today.

  • Jason H.

    The food here is excellent,I usually have the Big carne asada burrototi,always great,the ice cream,breads and horchata is right on.Ive never been disapointed here at all..highly recommended.

    Pretty solid. Great tortas, nachos, and quesadillas. Really great prices. Excellent dessert selection.

  • Liliana R.

    Delicious!!! Rib eye tacos are Amazing! Carne Asada fries always made fresh! Good sauces. Only issue so far was Carnita tacos were a little dry but still flavorful. Also, because they make it fresh usually a little wait. Good fish tacos too and portions are nice!

    I've been here a few times and it never gets old. Tortas are on point. You can't go wrong. Priced really nice too. Every time I'm in Glendale I swing by there.

  • Jessr N.

    This place is great. We've been to plenty of places for tortas but this place is amazing. Their portions aren't as big as other locations but the food is delicious. The Cubana with extra carne asada is to die for. The little sauce that they give with the food is simply amazing. They also have bread such as empanadas which are great as well. Def recommend if you are looking for good food.

  • William C.

    After a long drive from Las Vegas to glendale, this was our stop to eat and find a hotel to stay in. Reviews looked good so we gave it a shot. My 2 friends, originally from guadalajara, said their tortas ahogada wasn't authentic. I had a torta Mexicana. Really liked my sandwich. Very flavorful. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Might haven given 5 stars if my friends thoroughly enjoyed their meals, but I'm sticking with 4 the prices are very reasonable and there is a wide variety of menu items. Something for everyone. Next time I'm in the neighborhood I would pop in and have another go at their menu.

  • Brianne B.

    Pretty tasty food for a very cheap price! Tres leches and their pork tacos were delicious. The real winner was the yogurt salad!

    (4)
  • Erica F.

    I have been coming to this place since they opened about 6 years ago and it just keeps better. Fresh made to order menu that is full of variety and taste! The pastries are VERY reasonably priced however only 4 stars because the selection is not as fun and flavorful as before. Not looking for more sugar pan just some of the more decorative, unique flavor pieces. Maybe it was just because it was a Monday. Overall this is a must hit!!!

    Our new found love! Amazing staff, clean, and prefect cuisine! Even if you have to drive from a far, it's a must try!

    Carne Asada Tortas were good, overall I want to come back but the service is the only thing stopping me from doing so. Veronica had a short attitude and didn't answer my question about the food.

    (3)
  • Sasha E.

    This place is so popular in all the hoods Ive been to. They're doing something right. The food is great, tried something new tonight called the paquimestitos or something like that. But they really got a little bit of this and that from pastry breads to the jugos to the Tortas to the nachos. You gotta try this place.

    (5)
  • Zoe D.

    I am a huge fan of tortas; after passing by this place multiple times I finally decided to stop in and grab one. I got a chicken torta meal and juice. It was great! Don't have any complaints and I plan to visit here again soon.

  • Akiree C.

    Super yummy!!! Best bean burrito and ice cream in town!!!

    (4)
  • Yaya M.

    I had the best Carne asada torta here!!! The bread is what makes it the best, it's not your average bread that you find at frys or food city. They also sell dessert or snacks for after eating. I tried the Paquihuates, which were awesome as well!

    (5)
  • Roberto D.

    The place is clean. Costumer service was fine. But my food was insipid, I got a chicken torta, it was too small and the fries that come with it had not flavor as well.

    (3)
  • Zully P.

    My boyfriend took me here when I visited phoenix. I had a torta de milanesa. Now I'm very picky when it comes to Mexican food, including tortas. This place didn't bring me down! :) everything was delicious! I will be coming back!

    (5)
  • Bob O.

    Well, I can't believe that there are 2 really good authentic Little restaurants in the same damn strip mall! This is the best Mexican food your gonna get in Phoenix! I guarantee it! Right here in Avondale. And if you want really good Thai food, about 100 feet around the corner. I love yelp! I've lived in Cali for years and I know good Mexican food. I grew up in Chicago and I know good thai food. You can't go wrong with either one of these. And for the price? It's ridiculous.

    (4)
  • Daniella V.

    I think this place is just O.K. nothing to rave about, especially with the price tags on their over priced, unseasoned tortas.

    (2)
  • Dawnabelle R.

    This place has everything. Their torta selection is extensive. I had the Mexicana and it was made with everything delicious: steak, mushrooms, peppers, sautéed onions and lots of avocado. I want to try a paqueme next time. The limon agua fresca was also refreshing. If we didn't have to run to catch a Dodgers spring training game, I would have stayed to have one of their colorful pastries or enjoy a paleta. Definitely going back when we're in the area again.

    (5)
  • Vanessa M.

    Customer service was horrible the cashier was being so rude forgot to charge us for the drinks that I clearly told her I wanted. Then she came back and told us that we need to pay for them if we want them. Well duh! I didn't expect free drinks because of your mistake. The food was dry and flavorless I've heard so many good things about this restaurant and I came out really disappointed.

    (1)
  • Sue K.

    Did they change owners or recipes? This place has been a long time staple for our office lunches for about four years now. It's usually exceptional but the last two visits we were surprised that the food was not as good. The chicken quesadilla which is usually excellent did not have grilled chicken as usual. It was sliced from what tasted like a roast chicken. The avocado was blackened and you now have to ask for the avocado crema which used to be included. Even the salsa tastes different. Bring the tried and true back an we will return :(

    (2)
  • Tricia F.

    Their tacos are great - prepared to order, and always delicious. But the popsicles -- OH, THE POPSICLES. My first visit here earlier this year, we did not get a popsicle and I'd been fantasizing about them ever since. We went here pretty much first thing on our most recent visit, and were not disappointed. We had the lime, coconut, and caramel and all of 'em were fantastic. I can't wait to go back!

  • Mandy O.

    My hunny and I traveled to Arizona for some Dodger Baseball and noticed this joint had good reviews. We beat the rush, right about 4:30, then there was a cried off people. I had been craving some tasty Mexican food. I ordered the Torta and my hunny ordered the flautas and choose and guac as a side. My torta was noting like I had before, it was wet! I wasn't sure how to expect how it would taste, but it was delicious! The meat was cut pretty think, but wasn't difficult to chew. The flavors worked great together: with lettuce, tomatoes, avocados, cheese, and sour cream drizzled on top. Needless to say, it was gone almost as quickly as it was served. My hunny's flautas were more like taquitos covered with sauce, sour cream, lettuce and sliced avocados. The sauce was great, but I could have found these at Costco. I'd go again, probably get the torta, it was delightful.

  • Eric L.

    I thought this place was going to be the typical cheap burrito joint but boy was I wrong. This place really does the food well. I love the prime rib tortas or the carne asada burrito. But more than the great food this place has mexican ice cream, a selection of pastries and even makes cakes. Also the place is very clean and lively. A big thumbs up in my book!

    (5)
  • Justin E.

    The food was delicious both times I ate at this restaurant but unfortunately I also got food poisoning both times. I ate there for dinner last night. I was up all night throwing up and rushing to the restroom. I had to leave work this morning. Disappointed to say I don't trust this place anymore. Ramiro's on 107th and indianschool right next to brothers pizza is my go to spot. Never made me sick and the mini tacos are delicious.

    (1)
  • Ronnie D.

    As the name suggest, This mexican restaurant is known for its tortas. I like this place. The torta i always get is the cubana. Layers of puller pork with different types of ham and healthy portion of sliced avocano to top it all off. I would give this joint a 4 stars but the only reason why i didnt is beacuse most of the tortas doesnt come combo. You will have to order a drink and fries seperate. Oh yeah the fries are the bomb here as well

    (3)
  • Ella M.

    Why did I wait so long to try this! This is no typical torta joint! This place has a plethora (do I get extra points for using this word?) of tastiness on the menu! Tortas, tacos, ice cream, all these other dessert choices...AND....a little bakery! All of their agua frescas are amazingly tasty...not too sweet at all! I had agua limon and I wanted more! Very clean and very friendly service! Great little salsa bar and just yummy all around!

  • Majella B.

    We just moved in the area and were trying out the local restaurants and gave this place a shot. It is always seems fairly busy and has a good amount of available seating, the situation parking is okay considering its in a higher traffic area. Anywho- I had the torta Paquime which was damn awesome (fyi: the sauce topping was very spicy so a side of horchata is definitely recommended!). The boyfriend got soup (I forget which but they all sounded delish) and he really enjoyed it- surprising bc he can be finicky lol. The torta was garnished with homemade style potato chips- at first you'd might assume that they're being skimpy with them but the sandwiches are usually more than plenty by themselves. They had a salsa bar too which was much appreciated- gotta have my side of grilled jalapeño! The pan dulce here looks off the charts tasty but I've yet to try them out :-) Can't wait to sample their breakfast!

    (5)
  • Laura S.

    We love this place and eat here about once a week! We always get the #1 combo with potato chips (love the chips). Love the pickled onions and avocado on the sandwiches. Everything is made there. Their cupcakes are THE BOMB!

  • Stephanie C.

    Great authentic place for Mexican food in the west valley. I am so glad I tried it!! I had the original torta paquime. Everything on the menu looked super good, hopefully I will get to try some other stuff in the future! The best part about this place is the variety of food options that they have: you can get a full meal, but if you are just looking for a snack they have a bunch of different Mexican breads and buns. Also, they have about ten flavors of ice cream and a lot of different desserts on their menu...so you can also just go for dessert!! I will definitely be back just to get an ice cream cone sometime...their flavors look delicious and freshly made. The service is really good too...even though it isn't a sit down and order type of restaurant with servers and stuff...the guy at the cash register came around to ask how our food was!

  • Valeria E.

    I love tortas Paquime. I love the service the tortas are the best in Phoenix. I've had Los Reyes de la torta (their competitors) they don't come close. I had a torta ahogada it was delicious. This location is very clean and the employees actually seem to enjoy their job. I hope they stay in the area...

  • Logan G.

    Amazing food at a great price. Fresh ingredients, authentic, with lots of options. Friendly staff. Try the flautas or the Torta de Aguacate! Great aguas frescas too. (I like getting a mix of limonada & jamaica). All their avocados are cut fresh while they cook.

  • Angelo M.

    Great place to eat when your tired of all other mexican food places. The twin burritos are the best! Just a little pricey but worth the money.

    Never had a torta before. I had the shredded pork ones which were delicious. Great flavor. Add a little of the green salsa. Done.

  • Alejandro A.

    I've been in the Phoenix area for eight months and FINALLY, FINALLY I have found Mexican food worthy of the cultural name. Always a good sign when the friendly counter staff greet you in Spanish. They make their own Michoacan style ice cream. The Flautas Ahogadas with the spicy sauce are BOMB.com !! I also had the chicken soup that reminded me of my Mother's. "Happy"!! The Milanesa torta was perfect. My only complaint was that I got full and couldn't eat any more. But I will be back tomorrow. I'm a true Mexican/American and I love my heritage inspired foods. Highly recommend this place. 10 STARS!!!!

    The customer service at this Tortas Paquime is excellent! Even thought this place does not instill a Mom and Pop's establishment you're met with a warm welcome and are helped to place your order. The tacos de ribeye are excellent. I've been here three times and cannot order anything else because these ribeye tacos are great! The concept at this chain reminds me of a few grocery stores I have been to in Mexico that also serves food. I cannot speak of the Tortas but they look good as I see people pick their orders up. They serve many popular Mexican snacks and make homemade ice cream and waffle cones. The ice cream here are your traditional choices along with some you're not expecting if you are only accustom to American ice cream. They have paletas like the paletero man pushing the cart which are my favorite. The prices here are higher than the other low end corporate Mexican fast food (think of the ones that end in bertos) joints but you'll get a much better meal here. Remember to tip these kids they are trained well to serve you and put out some tasty food!

  • Brady M.

    After my big move from Texas to Arizona my first order of business was looking for a good mexican place. Although this place looks like a mexican restaurant gone corporate, I gave it a try and I was not disappointed. So far I have tried the rolled tacos with shredded beef and I've tried the mexican torta. The rolled tacos came with fresh avocados, something you don't readily see at a fast food mexican joint. The green sauce and side of red sauce were the perfect companion. They also coat the tacos in sour cream and crumbly white cheese which made them all that much better. The torta was equally good but a little too nice and neat for me, I am used to a well designed mess in a bun. The Horchata was also good, not too sweet and not too watered down. The only complaint I have is that it's a little pricier than most fast food mexican joints like filibertos and the like, but I can't complain too much because the food was well made and well worth the price. I venture to say that this might just well become my regular mexican place, sorry Humbertos.

    So after seeing this place get over 4 stars I had to try it. It was bomb! I got the number 1 combo, pork sirloin with avocado, tomatoes, lettuce, chilies, home fries and a drink. My friend got the same thing but it was chicken, very good as well. I got the melon drink and fell in love. They have a case full of Mexican pastries, we tried the cheesecake, so good. This isn't a sit place, but don't let that keep you from coming in! Service was fast and friendly and the place was clean. Don't wait as long as I did, you will regret it.

    Love Tortas Paquime - everything is made fresh to order with high quality ingredients. Restaurant and kitchen are spotless and the staff is very friendly. On top of all that they have ice cream by the scoop, paletas, and fresh made pastries. The tacos de pollo are my family's favorite, but the Tortas are yummy too. You can't go wrong here!

    Tortas are awesome...milanesa de pollo is my fave. It is lightly breaded chicken. ..similar to chicken fried steak. Fresas con crema are awesome here too! I gave them 4 stars because today I came in and ordered some corn on a cup and was very disappointed. I think they might have used mozzarella instead of cotija cheese. Huge mistake since the cheese melted and formed a ball which was impossible to break up. Also not sure what powdered chilli they used but it made the corn pink. Flavor I was looking for wasn't there. Will def come again but will not be ordering the corn.

    So I have to have real Mexican food when I come to Arizona and had to try this joint. I always ask if a Mexican place has cotija cheese and if they answer in the affimative, then I know they at least have the potential of being authentic. So I get the torta ahogada, pork. Super tasty pork with avocado, cotija cheese (I asked them for it) with a spicy red sauce covering it and drizzled with cream. All of my friends loved it as it was delicious. Also, the counter guy taking our order was so helpful and friendly and BAM got our order spot on. He could tell we had never been there before and kept offering us samples of the ice cream, horchata (SO GOOD) and soup. I wish I had tried their paletas, they looked delicious but we were all happy with what we got. I wish I lived here so I could eat there again. Yum.

    The sandwiches were good, I'm a big fan of Tortas and it's impeccably clean- huge plus. The major downfall was a young cashier who over charged us on dessert. We both ordered a single scoop of ice cream following dinner and were clearly charged for the double- a difference of $4 when you add the two- when I politely pointed out that the price seemed off the cashier looked at me and said, "it's the taxes." Now I'm pretty unsure about Arizona adding 100% taxes, but he was dead set and did not want to double check. I did the math on my phone, accounting for the 9.1% tax, and it was a far cry from what we were charged. I The food was good but I urge you to double check your bill, even though it's a small amount, no one likes to be over charged and under served.

    The service was not as great as the food I was in Avondale visiting my sister and stopped in for a bite! The place is great so is the food. The service not so great not to make it a racial event but I don't speak Spanish and I really felt it was the problem

    I was truly not impressed with this place. We went there because my husband and daughter said it was good. I ordered the pork carnitas tacos. Son and hubby ordered the ribeye steak tacos and my daughter ordered the tostada paquime When they say these are street tacos they mean it. Very small with outrageous pricing and not that good of food. If you want small portions that cost alot then this is your place.

    I am a big time fan of this small Torta shop in Avondale and I really enjoy their food as it gets me away from mainstream Mexican food joints and into a touch of something different. I have tried 3 different torta's and have yet to have a menu item there that I did not thoroughly enjoy. They have fresh ingredients and love to use the avocado in many plates which is killer if your are a fan. They also choose to use higher quality meats in their menu items as you get ribeye tacos and a better cut of pork. I tried their super nachos last night and though they were different and used actual nacho cheese I really enjoyed the dish as well, and it was loaded with meat, cheese, and guacamole. The salsa bar has some real fire kicking salsas so be mindful not to dump it in your sammy or you will get burned on both ends. The service is great and friendly, it's always clean, and you won't feel like an outsider if you come with friends or family to eat a meal here. I would recommend this to my yelp friends.

    Torta Mexicana and Ribeye Tacos were fantastic. I then really outdid myself with a Limon Aqua Fresca and finished with a scoop of caramel ice cream. Was very clean and staff was very friendly. Will definitely be back.

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
