Nothing has changed with their food.I was here for the Albondigas still the best.Not to mention the Ice Tea.Salsa is still on point.Missed you soooo much.-12thStreetNorthernCustomer
Wasn’t able to eat there because we were in a rush, but I loved the landscaping and the customer service of the host station,
Two words to consider when looking for old school Phoenix Mexican food, Pollo Fundido.Come on! Shredded chicken rolled into a flour tortilla, deep fried until golden and crisp.Then, it's slathered with jalapeño cream cheese and covered with cheddar, placed under a broiled until the whole operation is melty served with rice and beans.Enjoy it when you can because this is a Phoenix thing.Move away and you crave that gooey cheesy melt combined with crispy tortilla and juicy seasoned chicken.Trust me, I've been trying to find a place in San Diego (home) where I can have this again.Nope, only in Phoenix. Let's also not forget about Cheese Crisp's.A Phoenix thing and cannot be found elsewhere.And NO! A quesadilla is not the same thing so don't even try to correct me because you are wrong.O'brien's, Garcia's, TeePee, etc etc all serve Cheese Crisp's.Paired with house salsa and a sprinkling of fresh chopped lettuce and tomato is equal to heaven. Service here was efficient and friendly.Drinks, salsa bowls and chips were always full and plenty.Food come out fast so be sure to "course" out your meal as you see fit.Inside booths and tables were comfortable and not too close to your neighbors. Until my next trip to Cheese Crisp homeland...
