50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Scottsdale

“Been going to Someburros since I was a kid and started a new job in the area. I swung by for a breakfast burrito and it was great. I normally keep it simple with a bean and cheese chimichanga or some tacos but I’ll definitely be back for a breakfast burrito again, especially because they do breakfast either all day or until late into lunch time which is when the breakfast burrito cravings hit for me.“

“We have been eating at Ajo Al's for years. The food is consistently good and served promptly. We typically sit at the bar and the service from Oscar R has been outstanding. He is engaging and makes the dining experience excellent.“

“Absolutely love this spot! Fresh, flavorful, and healthy sandwiches that don’t skimp on taste. The drive-thru is super convenient, and the service is always fast and friendly. Finally—a guilt-free grab-and-go option that actually hits the spot! 🥪🚗💨“

This taco shop is amazing! The tacos are packed with flavor, and everything tastes super fresh. What really stands out is how friendly and kind the lady running it is—she makes you feel right at home. Great food and even better service. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Parking: Huge parking lot“

“Very sad to say that we had a very bad experience at your restaurant after so many great meals there. There was one server a very young guy, who was taking his time with everything but the customers on the patio. The place was not packed. There were just certain people he was clearly ignoring. At 30 minutes of sitting he approached and said I'll get to you when I can. At the 45 minute point we had ordered and still had not gotten drinks or appetizers. I asked one of the waitresses who had just arrived and she brought two drinks out. She was very nice. But we then waited until an hour and a half before our server brought the food, cold, like really cold. Clearly it had been sitting around a while. There were only four tables in the restaurant. I think this was probably payback for us asking about our drinks. The entire time he was had been waiting diligently on a table with a single young female, refilling her water, returning again and again. Great food but lately, really terrible service and this waiter really sent the message that he could care less.“

“We were seated upstairs on the outside patio and it was great. Food and Drinks were all fantastic. Service was exceptional. Bella (Annabella S.) provided us with excellent recommendations on both the food and drinks. She was very personable and professional. Thanks, we will be back again.“

“I have officially defected from Chipotle since it's become clear Cafe Rio is superior in every way. Every single time I come to Cafe Rio, I am blown away by the service. Not only are all the employees welcoming, but they seem to genuinely enjoy their job. I've never felt like a burden for asking questions - they answer everything and are so helpful. And let's talk fresh food. The chicken is so flavorful. I've had bowls, tacos, quesadillas, all of them tasty and delicious. Plus the FRESH MADE TORTILLAS. Im obsessed with this place. They're making a monster.“

“We have been to Oscars a couple times this month, both to dine in and take away. The staff is always friendly and efficient with the orders. Husband loves the surf and turf fries as a treat and the veggies tacos are a favorite. Very generous with their salsas. Keeps us coming back!“

“Absolutely amazing. From the staff, to the drinks, to the entrees. Everything about La Hacienda was incredible.“

“Manuels is the best !!!!!“

“best burritos in town! go get you some“

“Best ceviche I’ve ever had! The guacamole was incredible. Handmade tortillas. The frozen Paloma’s are to die for. The food is amazing but what really made me write this review was the cozy hospitality that you feel when you walk inside.

The owner, David, was so kind to us and proudly told us the amazing story behind the name of the restaurant. His father is a famous guitar maker in Mexico! He even let us play one of his guitars. The staff were wonderful, everything was offered on time and food came out quickly and fresh.

Love the ambiance and the feeling of familiarity when you eat here. Definitely a must try restaurant !“

“Great atmosphere and great food 🥘. Highly recommend going here for a nice brunch.“

“Very good. I ordered a breakfast bowel with pollo asado. Husband got the same except with steak. And my son got the steak, egg and potatoes burrito. Very good. Salsa and pico Very good and mild. They also have a habanero salsa for the daring. “

“I love the menudo and I had it everywhere“

“I had the Menudo and it was too greasy and had no hominy at all. I have never had Menudo without one of the main ingredients. Unfortunately I did not eat it...“

“Food was very reasonably priced, just enough food to fill your appetite. Service was very good as well. Greeted as we walked in and asked if we've been there before which we haven't and were given recommendations for the most popular items order. The food was very delicious! Definitely will go back!“

“5 rolled taco supreme is where it's at. The carne asada burritos are great too!

Edit: they do occasionally screw up orders so double check. I got a 5 roll taco supreme missing all the supreme which was heart breaking.“

“It is a hidden gem! Great food, employees and cocktails!“

“Food is very good, the carne asada fries are amazing“

“We were two friends catching up over a late lunch. The service was great. The food was fine but nothing noteworthy. I should have stayed with my usual chimichanga. Beautiful afternoon and great company. We didn't need any more than that.“

“Wonderful quick dinner! The food was fresh and delicious. Spicy chicken soup, birria taco in the fruit cart were amazing. To top it all off their drinks where delicious and not too sweet. The service was excellent. We will definitely come back.“

“one of the best ive been to“

“Cool spot to get some good Mexican food and sip on a margarita or cold beer. We stopped in for the first time and sat at the bar. Friendly service, seems like the locals were hanging out there as well. Had to start with the queso fundido which has rave reviews on Google - both chips and queso dip were great. Then on to delicious Crispy Potato Taquitos piled with refried beans, lettuce, pico, queso fresco and topped with crema. We also tried the Carne Asada Burrito with black beans, queso Oaxaca, cabbage, crema and guac. Both entrées were served with rice and your choice of refried beans, black or charro beans. Lots of food, and presentation was good. We will definitely be back to try the margs and tacos which were strongly suggested by our server.“

“Great Chicago style pizza it’s owned by the parents I went school with daughter.“

“This place is great. It has a very authentic touch and the Mexican food is delicious. Our waiters were super kind. They have a nice but patio with is bit and perfect for summer nights.

We had the beef tacos and chimichangas.“

“Great service, good food and cold beer“

“Our favorite, authentic Mexican food. And the house margarita paired with a cheese crisp (get the green chilies) is the best way to end the week.“

“Excelente servicio muchas gracias por todo a la mánager Sandy por atenderlos siempre de la mejor manera ,a mucha gente hispana que trabajamos por esa área nos va a hacer falta ese rico pollo q disfrutábamos casi todos los días, sinceramente preferiamos comer pollo que comernos una hamburguesa.“

“Going with a 4. The complaints I have is that the tortilla isn’t that good. I used a promo code but normally the steak burrito is 15 something and while it’s a big portion I felt like I was eating a lot of rice. Decent flavor. Like chipotle more still. Can’t see myself going back unless it’s taco Tuesday or they do another promotion.“

“It is good place to try 👌“

“Just stopped for dinner was busy and they even ran out of chicken and had alittle wait. Wasnt that bad about 10 minutes after ordered. Food came hot fresh and very good. Manager even came to table to apologise for the wait, Told her no big deal on the wait as its a friday night prime dinner time 6:00pm. Was nice she stopped over though.“

“Let’s say the best carne asada around. I have never written about how good the food is. Today is the day,. Super Nacho with Steak supremely awesome. Pork green chilly burrito oh my. The price point is right for the quality. It is great. Keep up the good work. We will see you soon. Sorry about the photo, it did not stand a chance.“

“The food is fabulous and the tableside-made guacamole is to die for. Great service, ambiance, and location.“

“I love Pollo Loco, our family eats there at least once a month, sometimes twice. We would eat there more but like every other place, the prices are getting too high. We enjoy the Tacos Al Carbon are bomb! Their Chicken Tortilla Soup is also really good. Their churros, when fresh are awesome as well. Sometimes they're not so fresh but still good. I've tried one of their burritos and it was good as well. The last time we went they forgot our 3 soups, hence the lower rating.“

“the shrimp burrito was delicious“

“The food is delicious � Prices are very reasonable. Service is fast and very friendly. I highly recommend Burrito Express!“

“Queen creek location first trip. Everything was great! Jessica was a great hostess. Would highly recommend!“
