Absolutely no other taco shop in the area or even in this state does their tacos the way Santa Madre does. There isnt a SINGLE menu option that isn't out of this world delicious here. Take it from someone who's come here a dozen times and will keep coming back for more. Their taco Tuesdays are extra special because you can't go wrong with asada or al pastor. Their rice and beans taste like I'm back at Mom's place 600 miles away. Thats what makes this place...

It wasn’t bad, wasn’t great. The rices and beans were cool, just above room temperature. The tacos, carne asada, were good, but again kind of cool, but good flavor. Great salsa bar, everything you need for your tacos. I feel like they have good fish tacos, but will have ti try next time.

Amazing food and great service. As someone who greatly enjoys Mexican food and has lived in Arizona my whole life, this place is a “gem” and would highly recommend to anyone to come here.
