    The ambiance
    Stringfellow H.

    3 Sonoran hot dog places closed, I would not stop until I found one. The dog was awesome. I wish I got two. Taco was average. Hablo Espanol not needed, but can make ordering easier.

    El Chavo and Chiledogo.
    Jackie J.

    Fantastic find! I've been on the hunt in the East Valley for the perfect Sonoran dog and Blazing Desert Dogs is definitely a contender! My other half had the Chiledogo and I had the El Chavo. Both were overflowing with toppings - no skimping here! The bun was nicely grilled, which kept it from getting soggy. The bacon on the El Chavo was grilled to perfection and gave the dog some crunch. The addition of ham on this dog was a really nice touch and helped to make a single dog a filling meal. We'll most definitely be back.

    What they advertise vs. what you actually get? Disappointed for real.

    I guess they figure if your ordering on a Friday night you must be too drunk to realize how badly you just got screwed.

    ALPO Tacos with soggy tortillas
    Brandon D.

    This place is nasty now. I've been going here for years and now for some reason, it is not good food at all. We went on a Saturday night, as a walk up. There was nobody in line and we were standing there waiting. And Nobody said anything at all to us. We were not even acknowledged or greeted. Then finally, when we said we were ready, they were extremely rude. Just dirty looks on they're faces, and attitude. I then told the lady I have never been here before, what does she suggests and she just shrugged her shoulders and pointed to the menu. We finally ordered what we thought were Authentic Carne Asada Tacos. Wow big mistake! also we ordered two Elote's (Corn on a stick). We finally got our food after some miscommunication on how to plate our 9 Tacos. I explained 3,3 and 3 with 3 plates. Well we got our food piled together on one To-go tray. I politely asked for another plate, to the "Grill Master" if you wanna call him that, and give him to much credit. But I wouldn't. He looked at me like I was trying to steal from him, and was very hesitant with giving me a empty plate. A very cheap flimsy, styrofoam plate I might add. Not gold. He finally came to his senses and gave the plate up. We then were told our taco condiments were in a ice cooler, which had no ice btw. There is no way that the food was at health code temp. This was bottom of the barrel, old, out of date. The pico, in reality was chopped onions. The limes were black. And we had to use our hands because of no utensils. The elotes I would rate 6/10. Not bad, just a little old. The tacos were the worst the meat was not Carne Asada. I think it was ground something. Dog? Maybe Ol jinxy? I'm not sure but it reminded me a lot of my dogs canned ALPO. the tortillas were not even cooked. Extremely soggy. It all fell apart. Not good at all. And I'm sorry I'm not trying to be mean. I've actually given this place a couple chances already. But even the last two times I went here, the same issues. I'm not sure why. Because it used to be very good, and the employees used to care. Not anymore.

Where asking a question feels like you're interrupting someone's day. So today, when I took my son to Ted's Hot Dogs. This is a place I've been going to since the 1900s (as my kids love to remind me ). I didn't expect much. Things had changed since my childhood days, but the food had always remained good! I just missed the days when the same guy worked the grill and knew my name and my order by heart. But then, today... There was Karen. Yes, Karen!! Standing over a grill in 117° Arizona heat, she greeted us with patience, kindness, and an actual smile. She let my son take his time ordering without making him feel rushed. And when the ketchup was empty, she didn't shrug it off or point us in another direction. She didn't hand me a thousand little packets since the pump was empty. She simply took care of it. Was it just ketchup? Sure. But it also wasn't. It was someone choosing to care. When other patrons had notified other staff multiple times it was out - Karen found a simple solution without excuses! These days... that feels rare. We've spent years turning the name "Karen" into a punchline. But today, I met the kind of Karen the world could use a whole lot more of. If you're her manager and you're reading this... take good care of her. Promote her. Clone her if science ever figures that out. Because people like Karen don't just serve food - they create loyal customers who keep coming back!! In a world that tells us what a "Karen" is... be this Karen.

We waited in line to to order and after waiting about 25 minutes, we were helped. The cashier was stressing but was friendly. We ordered three traditional hot dogs with everything on top and a side of bacon cheese fries. Since it was national glizzy day, our hot dogs were supposed to be BOGO. We sat down and waited another 25 minutes until finally our buzzer beeped. We picked up our tray and noticed we were only given 5 hot dogs, not 6. We didn't mention anything just because we saw how busy it still was. The hot dogs were actually pretty good. They were a decent size and flavorful. We really liked the bacon fries and it was enough to share between us three. There was an employee keeping the tables clean and picking up trash - he was friendly. Will de be back to try out some more food!

    I was out doing some running around, and ended up on Gilbert Rd, north of Broadway, and saw a sign…read moreBirria. Im a sucker for Birria, so I stopped. When I entered, I was thinking I had made a mistake. The place was abuzz bit dingy looking. Ceiling tiles were water stained and dirty looking. The tile floor had some broken pieces and chunks missing. But, I was there. So I ordered two orders of the three queso birria tacos with consume, to go. The woman behind the counter was very pleasant and more than helpful. As I waited, I grabbed some salsa and limes from the fairy well stocked condiment cart. After ten or fifteen minutes, I got my order. There were around 6 or 7 people ahead of me, so it was a reasonable wait. I took my order and went home. This is where my opinion was changed. There was a decent amount of filling in the tacos. I took a sip of the consome, and was pleasantly surprised by how flavorful it was! No grease layer on top (like so many others I have tried), just a well seasoned and savory broth. I dressed my tacos with lime and salsa, dipped into the consome, and took a bite. What a pleasure! The meat was tender, juicy and well seasoned. Not overdone with the cheese. Just a great bite! Goes to show you can't judge a book by its cover. Well done Los Mayitos!

We went late at night and it wasn't as good as it has potential to be. The quesibirrias were so good for me. They were tiny and the juicy. They broke immediately after biting into it but it broke evenly to eat in pieces. We also got a FOOTLONG SONORAN HOTDOG. It's perfect for 2 people. I had an horchata that was so huge! Literally! But it was the last bit and it was TOTALLY worth it. It was refreshing and delicious. The only sad part was the bar has sooo much potential but the little tiny cups for lime and cucumber is so sad. It's the perfect size for their spicy salsas though. They are hot, so beware! Definitely has a lot of potential for sure. I hope to comeback soon when the birria is fresh! (;

Most certainly! Ordering was pretty easy, kiosk or counter, take your pick. The rodeo burger caught my attention immediately. It was first introduced to me by a friend who said, if you've never tried, you most certainly have to! The onion rings and barbecue sauce changes the whole game for a burger. Thinking about it has me salivating. Honestly. You can get it regular or as a double and no going back as soon as you've had it! I paired my burger wth chili cheese fries. I'm regretting not adding the jalapeños to it. They had this lemon cake milkshake that is absolutely delicious. There's actual cake in that that shake! I noticed that they offer catering too. Order pickup shelving were also nearby. There is a huge dining area with tables snd chairs as well as booths. Even outdoor seating. There's also plenty of parking and appears to have drive through making easy transactions.
