    Was recommended by multiple people so I thought to try it. It's very much a quaint little hole in the wall and not flashy. The cashier/server was very friendly. They do have very limited hours so only available for breakfast or lunch. The food was good but felt slightly pricey. I ordered the carne asada burrito and it was very tasty but not massive. I ordered the hot salsa but it wasn't hot at all. Still it was way better than filberto's overall. I ended up getting a dozen tortillas to go and they were amazing. Also the location is kind of rough due to the light rail but that's not their fault. It's very easy to drive right past it and then you have to do an annoying Loop to get back to it so keep an eye out. Only four stars because of price but other than that it was still great. I will go back.

    Carnitas Tacos Plate AMAZING!!!

    Staff are wonderful and the food is amazing! Definitely a must try when you're in Mesa. Small family owned restaurant with a lot of love

    The vibe of family and small restaurant feel is amazing! I was immediately greeted with a smile quickly taken care of! I ordered chorizo, egg, and potato breakfast burrito however after ordering I saw the Chilaquiles and I will definitely get that next time. The tortillas were fresh, homemade, and the best!!!! Please don't hesitate to come and support this amazing restaurant!!!

    If your in the know, you know this place. Some maybe even most would drive on by. I don't live here but I spotted a couple of Mesa's finest walking in and I'm hitting the brakes...ya know, eat were the police eat. Just real good food. Nothing to look at here but I'm not caring, I'm in need of a breakfast burrito. Checked Yelp and bam! I'm in. Delicious. Service was super polite with genuine smiles. To the hard working young man that waited the tables and ran the register, great job. Last words...yes.

    Adrian's was recommended to me by a friend when I asked him for some good breakfast spots in Mesa. I always try to avoid chain restaurants when I can and dive places are even better. He told me this would be a dive and he was right! It reminds me a lot of Bobos in Tucson. Very small but serves fairly priced breakfast and lunch items. I got the Chiliquiles breakfast plate which came with my choice of a corn or flour tortilla (always go corn when given the option). The tortilla was fresh and tasted really good with the red salsa. Chiliquiles was also delicious but I underestimated the portion size. Ended up taking some home to my wife to share later. I definitely want to go back and try some lunch items. Parking will be a challenge, but if you can get there early or park within walking distance, you should be all set. For the price and portion sizes, I definitely recommend Adrian's for an authentic Mexican breakfast.

    I got the Chorizo, Egg, Potato, and cheese breakfast burrito. I really enjoyed it. The flavor on the Chorizo was amazing and the burrito wasn't completely greasy as sometimes happens when you add chorizo. Definitely make sure to get the red and green sauces as they are both delicious. The team was friendly when I walked in and greeted me. I will absolutely be back to try their other items. They also make homemade tortillas, which they use for the burritos and you can buy individually if you would like.

    I was looking for a quick lunch spot on my way out of the valley to golf in Gold Canyon and saw…read morethis place on Yelp with the great reviews. Authentic Mexican food sounded perfect and I knew good things were in store when I arrived at 11:30am on a Friday and all of inside and outside tables were full. The inside is quaint but has quite a few tables. They also have tables out front in the shade (to call it patio seating may be a stretch, just simple tables and chairs on the exterior of the entrance). You order your food at the counter and I didn't study the menu ahead of time but the ladies taking my order were patient with me. I ordered a shredded beef taco and a cheese enchilada with rice and beans. Nothing fancy for my first time as it's hard to golf on a full stomach! I found the only open table and then hit up the salsa bar. They have 4 or 5 different salsas/hot sauces and a few other goodies. I got a small cup of each sauce and all of them were quite good. My food was colorful, flavorful and just the right away to give me some energy without being lethargic. I could go on about a few other nice things but it seems most of East Mesa already knows about this place given the high scores on Yelp from a lot of reviewers. Nothing to prevent me from giving a 5* review at this time. I look forward to trying some more dishes in the future.

Nice cuts, tender and not dry at all. Definitely a fan. Enjoyed both the nachos and the fajitas. Good serving sizes. Also, loved the staff! They were super friendly and welcoming. They offered to take my empty plate as I was about to. They also bud farewell to guests as they left. Felt like a really warm family place. Well lit, fun decor, clean. Very enjoyable - will be back!

I'm posting this review for two reasons - The first being because the manager passed the restaurant phone over to the supposed "owner" after I called within five minutes of getting home to tell them the chips and taco shells tasted like they were fried in old, rancid oil. The manager told me she could offer a credit and when I said I would prefer the refund to my card is when she went to get the "owner". I'm fairly sure I wasn't an asshole to her. I was pretty peeved at this point because we're talking about almost $16 of the $49.11 which was the cost of the food I ordered before tax and tip. I work in the service industry/for tips too so I get it. I'm well aware of the price increase of everything everywhere!!! Before going to Ritos I waited in a line of 10 cars at Sam's Club for gas and gas was $49.65. So there's that. The "owner" also reiterated that a refund would only be given if I brought the food back. I'm sorry, but, I live 15 minutes away from Mesa Riverview. My employer was 30 minutes from the restaurant. I sure as f*ck wasn't going to get my ass back in my car and drive back to Ritos to give them shitty tacos and chips. They told me they would offer a credit for next time for chips and 2 tacos - and I guess that's acceptable but my question is - how are you going to provide that when you don't have my number or an email address for me? And aren't chips typically complimentary at a Mexican food restaurant when you dine in? The manager had the audacity to say that the oil was changed, the chips and tacos are cooked in different vats, the cost of meat has gone up and "everyone is feeling it." That's quite the level of audacity. I'm to the point where I don't give a about your credit and if I want Ritos I'll drive even more out of my way to the Garfield or 7th Street location. I'm more pissed off about the "owner's" attitude than I am about the $2.55 chips I threw in the trash. And the taco shells didn't taste too rancid drowning the inside in salsa. My mother was in her bedroom in the back of the house (I was in the kitchen) and just told me she could hear the owner yelling at me and what a sh*tty way to do business. Keep your credit, I won't be back to your locatiom to dine in OR take food to go. PS - Change your raunchy ass oil. As you said, consumers pay *way too much* to get home with a To Go order to have to throw it away because oil isn't changed frequently enough.
