“Justine was AMAZING!! She educated our entire group on the history of the building AND helped us navigate how amazing the menu was. We took all of her recommendations and basically ordered half the menu. Every. Single. Item. Deserves 10 stars. So much protein and every flavor was complex and had depth. Obsessed and can't wait to come back. The chipotle cherry steak taco took us all by surprise. Might move to Arizona just for Taco Guild!“

“Everyone was so kind and the food was AMAZING! The atmosphere was great, and everything we ordered was delicious. A huge thank you to our waitress, Julia, for being so attentive, sweet, and welcoming.

Extra points to Julia for putting up with our table. Especially my sister, who may have been a little louder than she realized 😅. Despite our laughter and chaos, she was nothing but patient and kind. She truly made our experience even better, and we’ll definitely be back!“

“Rene went out of his way to make sure I was being fed, making my tacos himself, one by one as I ordered them and went above and beyond to prove that he genuinely cares about the work and GREAT quality food his restaurant puts out. What is a normal Sunday out for myself, turned into an experience to remember solely based on this man’s desire to make the guests that dine here happy, comfortable, and treated like family.

He touched base with EVERY single person at the bar and truly showed what it means to be a phenomenal business owner. From greeting me and introducing himself in the hallway, to surprising me with a taco upon my arrival back to my chair, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, and THANK YOU for one of the best meals I’ve had in a very long time!

I will always return as the quality of service and food has never strayed. Thank you again for a wonderful meal!!“

“Pinches Tacos is hands-down one of the best taco spots I’ve ever been to—and I don’t say that lightly. From the moment you walk in, you’re hit with a vibe that’s full of energy and personality. The wall-to-wall decor is colorful, fun, and gives the place a real sense of identity. It feels like home, but with better tacos! What really makes Pinches special, though, is the people. The staff are always friendly, welcoming, and seem genuinely happy to be there. It’s rare to find that kind of consistency in both service and attitude, and it’s one of the reasons my mom and I eat here at least 2–3 times a week. And the food—wow. Every bite is packed with flavor. The tacos are made fresh, and the salsa? Unreal. It’s the kind of salsa that has you dipping everything on your plate just to savor it a little longer. You can taste the love and care in every dish. Pinches Tacos isn’t just a place to grab a bite—it’s a spot that feels like part of our weekly rhythm, part of our lives. Thank you to the crew for making every visit feel like a little celebration of flavor and community. 🌮❤️“

“Excellent customer service just for starters, thank you Lauren!!! the food was amazing, the birria taco was so good and so were the asada tacos and the beans. And the empanadas!!! oh my! delicious We also had G4 Cadillac Margaritas. Definitely recommend“

“excelente comida y ubicación“

“I’ve been vegan for almost 12 years. Slowly there have been restaurants that are plant based, but I’ve never found good vegan Mexican food, until now. A colleague and I ordered here and we’re absolutely amazed at how delicious and fresh it was!!! She’s carnivore and loved it. I’ve found a new favorite spot for sure!“

“Incredibly tasty Mexican food. The taco Gobernado is amazing ! All the tacos are delicious!! 🤤“

“Recomendadisimo muy amables todos en especial a Ana Lalo y Tatiana todo riquisimo“

“Todo muy rico 😋❤️🙏🏻buena la comida“

“Best quesadillas, tacos, and margaritas in town!!“

“we frequent this torchy’s tacos location and used to come almost every wednesday, so we’ve had plenty of visits over the years. the food is always great, comes out in a reasonable amount of time, and i almost always leave satisfied.

what really stands out, though, is the customer service. we usually order through the kiosk, but oscar always makes a point to come over and check on us anyway. even though we aren’t ordering directly with him, he’ll stop by to make sure we don’t need help with the kiosk, answer questions, or see if there’s anything he can do for us. he always has a smile on his face and creates such a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.

i actually spoke with him today to compliment him because it’s something i’ve noticed consistently over multiple visits. great food is one thing, but employees like oscar are what keep people coming back. thank you for always making us feel welcome!“

“Wonderful food! Will definitely go back multiple times. Owner is so nice. Highly recommended!“

“I love this place! Some of my favorite tacos with homemade corn tortillas 🤤
The service was amazing too! They are so nice When I got the wrong tortilla she remade me the entire taco. And the salsa bar 🤌🏼 Definitely coming back again and again.“

“Tacos bien servidos con su rica sabor sonorense menú de tacos lorenzas quesadillas lo mejor“

“Such a great experience! Best Mexican food in the valley! Honestly it's authentic Mexican. Fernando and Miguel were amazing.“

“Omg .. so freaking good!
My first visit ...my girl and I found it on a whim headed across town .. I am fully surprised.
We had birria tacos and an horchata and they were great
Tacos had plenty of innards .. good melty cheese and good quantities of meat. The toppings bar added the perfect flexibility with several sauces and some veg.
The corn tortillas were crispy and tasted amazing....and the dipping consume.. omg so good
I have two complaints .. first.. I wish there were more of this place all over town ..and second . They give you a ton of consume.. which is good . But it's delicious...savor it .. I almost drank it!
Haha eat here it's great and the service was friendly quick and pleasant“

“está muy sabroso todo y te atienden rápido y muy buenas personas“

“The food was delicious, the tuna and the kebabs 🤤🤤 and the service was excellent, even the young woman with the tattooed arm, I think her name is Leslie, along with a couple of young men, Luis and Jett. I would definitely go back. Greetings from Tuxpan, Nayarit, Mexico“

“Third time in and I can assure you they do not put as much care into the look of the food as what the videos and pictures show. The last time in was last week. The service was incredibly slow. the food was slop on foam plates. I just don't know what is happening to this place. I have had better food at chain restaurants. If you want good Mexican food, this isn't the place to go. It is very unfortunate.“

“I'd give a 4.5 if available
We ordered carne asada, even my young son liked it, and al pastor tacos. The al pastor could had been marinated a little longer, but over all, the quality of meat was good. Meat was not gamey, decent amount of food. These were street taco size. After telling the waiter that the tacos were good he suggested we return on TACO TUESDAY 🌮😁
My little boy said we found a new taco spot so the 35 min drive there was worth it!“

“Los tacos están riquísimos Los nachos igual todo rico sin dejar de mensocionar las salsas en especial la roja ? y muy buen servicio 100% recomendados“

“Clean restaurant, friendly staff, and the food was AMAZING. Everything we ordered was flavorful and filling. We will definitely be back.“

“By far the best tacos and tostadas I’ve ever had!! There were four of us and we tried all the varieties! Everything was so flavorful and fresh!! We will definitely be back!!“

“Highly recommended! This was my husband's and I first time here and all I can say is AMAZING! Not only was the food very fresh and authentic, but the service was great. We were blessed to meet Irma herself. She is a lovely lady and is so sweet! No doubt, we will definitely be back again and again. Thank you Irma's Kitchen, thank you❤“

“Gracias por los tacos amigo estaban Bien chingones! The tacos are overloaded man! You best come hungry. The guy taking the orders is super helpful make sure you tell him to give you the real hot sauce. These is outdoor seating for maybe 30 people. Tacos came out super fast. I tried the pastor and lengua and was not disappointed!“

“Sonoran hot dogs are the best! Also the menudo on weekends is very good go check it out!“

“muy sabrosos los tacos tome nota la dueña del negocio la muchacha nueva que está cobrando en la ventana cobra alos clientes y ayuda alos cocineros a servir los tacos sin guante y sin lavarse las manos agarra dinero y la comida con la mano pelona hoy domingo agosto 13 año en cuarzo“

“Incredible tacos and fantastic value!
Every now and then, I get a serious craving for authentic Mexican food with rice and refried beans, and Tacos Saguaro on 32nd St. completely hit the spot.
The Tacos: These were easily some of the best tacos I've had. They use the smaller corn tortillas, doubled them up perfectly, and the chicken filling was absolutely delicious and flavorful.
Portion & Price: The prices here are very reasonable. The portions are so generous that it was easily enough for two full meals, which is perfect if you like to split your portions. The rice and beans did not disappoint at all.
The Atmosphere: I stopped in around dinner time. While the dining room itself wasn't overly busy, they clearly have a highly popular to-go business with orders flying out the door.
I am so glad I tried this spot—I will definitely, definitely be back!“

“MariscoBoys absolutely exceeded our expectations! The food was incredible, and the three different types of aguachiles were top tier—easily some of the best we've had. Huge shoutout to our waiter, Ivan, for recommending them because every single one was packed with fresh flavor and perfectly prepared.
Ivan truly made our experience memorable. His customer service was outstanding—he was personable, respectful, attentive, and a lot of fun. He kept the energy up and created such a lively, welcoming atmosphere that made our visit even more enjoyable.
The drinks were just as impressive. I ordered the Lemon Drop Martini, and it was exactly what I wanted: strong enough to hit, but smooth and flavorful enough to savor every sip.
Between the amazing seafood, delicious cocktails, and exceptional service from Ivan, MariscoBoys has definitely earned a repeat visit. Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for fresh mariscos, great drinks, and an all-around fantastic dining experience! 🌊🍸🔥“

“Ive tried lots of quesabirras and I have to say these are the best in Phoenix!!! not soggy like some places very crispy and the birria is very flavorful! Def will be returning!!!“

“I had an amazing experience at Salsitas Tacos. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and authentic. Every bite had the perfect balance of seasoning, and you can really tell they take pride in the quality of their ingredients.

What made the visit even better was the staff. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The service was fast, and they made sure everything was just right from start to finish.

If you’re looking for great tacos and excellent customer service, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommended—I’ll be coming back for sure!“

“Lo mejor en tacos y burritos“

“I don't think the 2 most recent reviews are truthful. I eat here once a week. This is an amazing taco shop. They way they make your food to order is awesome. Like chipotle but actually good. You order they turn around and make your burrito/tacos and then move down the line of toppings/salsa.Every vege and sauce is soo flavorful.They even have pickled onions!I could have just reported them but that doesn't show how wrong they are. Below are WHY they are inaccurate, or just lies.The most recent, said they used a microwave. Which no, they do not, you order, they turn around and grill.The 2nd one is just inaccurate; the way they described ordering isn't correct with how this restaurant does it. You order what you want any they turn around and make it before moving down the line for toppings. So you don't even sit down before getting your food.“

“Indoor and outdoor dining. Very nice staff and good food.“

“Fun night, great food, and our toddler got to participate in karaoke! 🎤🪩“
