I have been a fan of Los Faves for years!! I have always had EXCELLENT service and food at the Gilbert location on Mesa Dr and Guadalupe and the old Mesa location on Lindsay and University. Unfortunately, this was not the case at this location on Main and Ellsworth with the exception of the guy who took my order. He was friendly and made sure I had everything I needed! The issue was what I observed while waiting for my food. The restaurant is very small, so while waiting I was able to watch the men behind the counter cooking/handling all the food. Neither of them were wearing gloves. One of the men used his hand to grab a handful of cheese to add to the top of my carne asada fries, then with the same hand he used both of his hands to grab a huge handful of meat to throw on the grill, again with same hand he openéd a small fridge under the counter ( I am not sure what he grabbed), but he proceeded to put it on the grill as well. Next, with THE SAME BARE HANDS, I watched him wipe his hands on his apron, then he grabbed two more handfuls of meat to throw on the grill!! To my knowledge, this screams cross contamination! In addition to this , our food was just ok, definitely not the quality I have had many times from other locations. Needless to say that due to the food handling practices I witnessed here I will not be returning.

This place is GREAT!!! We have been eating here since we first moved down to Arizona. We have tried so many of the menu items and have enjoyed everything. Today we had #1 2 Chicken Enchiladas and #7 Beef Taco & Beef Burrito. Both come with rice and beans which are sooooo yummy!!!
Growing up in So-Cal, I became used to a certain flavor and style to the Mexican food I eat.This is the same style, with a better flavor pallet than all the chain restaurants that attempt to mimic it..I'd eat here more, but the cost is an issue for me. They, however, have not raised the prices as badly aa chains and other places have since Covid.They have a very small dining room with swating for maybe 10 people.most people who come here to buy food do take out. That's a good thing because when you are done eating a siesta is in line for you.

Excellent Mexican food. The lady taking my order was very friendly and helpful. The lady preparing my food was singing to the music that was playing. There are a few tables but they do a lot of take out. I think that smothered burritos are a specialty as there are many choices.
