7 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near Surprise

“I’m no stranger to Torchy’s (discovered it in Houston right before I moved to the valley almost ten years ago), so I was excited to see it make its way out west. The food was great, but beyond that the staff was friendly and very kind. My partner forgot to nix an ingredient on his tacos (which was our fault) and the server offered to remake the tacos. The manager, Nic, built some rapport with us and noticed our chips were pretty small pieces for much of the tray, and offered to bring us new ones, which was completely unexpected. Nic was also all over the place — from bussing tables, to behind the bar or register, an then in and out of the kitchen, and he still found time to talk to us and make sure our experience was exemplary. We’ll definitely be back, but probably choose this location over the central Phoenix one because of this experience. Thanks again, Nic and staff!“

“Probably the juiciest cheeseburger I've had in a very long time. It was so good that it had toppings I normally don't get on a burger I still truly enjoyed it. The Chili's fries came out a minute later very hot and fresh. Always love theirs salsa and chips. Don't forget the new cheese sauce is amazing.“

“Food was delicious! Service was great! Drinks were also good. Reasonably priced.“

“The food here is the best Mexican food I’ve had in Arizona and the service was excellent too! We were seated right away and our food came out quick and was very hot! Everything tasted delicious! We will definitely be back! Thank you!“

“I very much enjoyed my morning breakfast of a Chorizo Benni. Such wonderful flavors and a perfectly poached egg. ? When I asked my server about it, she said it was her favorite on the menu, and now I know why. I highly recommend if you like poached eggs (runny yoke) and a bit spicier foods.

Vegetarian options: I did notice some vegetarian options on the menu but did not order any.“

“Excellent and amiable employees. Toni was our waitress and was fantastic and checking on us. Thank you for working on this Saturday for us who come to dine. Chilies 🌶️ is one of my favorite 🤩 restaurants and is only 5 minutes from our home.“

“We ate there tonight for the first time and it was delicious! I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was so happy to find it was a better version of Chipotle, as we stopped going there a long time ago because it hasn’t been good for a while. This place was clean, fresh food, lots of options for proteins, toppings, and salsas. The guy and girl working were very nice and professional. We tried a bowl, burrito, kids quesadillas, guac, and queso. Everything was great and we had large portions. Also appreciated the chips that come with it and my kids loved that they have an icee machine. I hope this place does well because the location is kind of hidden. Can’t wait to go back and try a wrap.“
