The food here is great and you can tell by the taste that they use high quality meats. The service is also excellent. The guy serving/cashiering when we were there really bent over backward to accommodate us and our baby. I'd definitely go back or recommend it to a friend. read more

Authentic, fair, and delicious! Located in the shopping center/strip, this is your next go to for that homestyle, amazing, and so good for you Mexican food. I ordered the barbocoa plate and everything about it was so good. The meat was so tender and flavorful. The rice & beans were honestly some of the best I've ever had and their homemade salsas were so fresh. Highly recommend this plate! Brandon, the young guy, who took my order and helped me out with catering was so nice and friendly. I don't speak a whole lot of Spanish and he helped me get in contact with his grandpa to place a catering order for my birthday. This is on my top 10 places to eat at, it is that good. read more

The food and service was pretty good. I had the sopes with shredded beef. It had good flavor, they had so many options. I did think it was a little odd that our food was served in paper plates, but that's okay. The person taking our order was friendly. They had a good amount of space to sit down. The area in front of the restaurant is really cute open area. read more

not good at all. I was duped by the yelp ratings and comments ngl. The carne asada didnt even taste like actual meat. It was hard and gave pork skin vibes. No flavor and hurt my stomach after. Vibes were not ood there either and honestly this place is worst than fast mexican food places. Sorry for the negative review but I had to... i wanted to vomit my food as a fresh start on the day for what I choose to eat. Im from out of town so i wanted to make the most of my time here which includes eating good food. read more

Roberto & family owned business is one of a kind mexican food restaurant. Customer service, quality of food are the fine points in this restaurant. I enjoy the laughter, family environment and courtesy that is there every time I visit. The food is excellent, nothing high class about this place. But the food is classical Sonoran mexican food. Right in the center of Guadalupe in the plaza, on Avenida del Yaqui & Guadalupe road. read more

Surprising hole in the wall. Everything I have tried on the menu has been amazing. From their barbacoa plate to their crispy tacos and taquitos. Their rice and beans are my fave. When I cook Mexican food I home I will come just to get rice & beans to bring back lol. They're sooo yummy. I love the plaza that they're in and they have beautiful tropical plants out maids to enjoy while you eat or wait for you food. read more

Del Yaqui - Huevos Rancheros - Mexican Near Me - Guadalupe, Arizona

I have menudo mania, and they offer it on Monday, so I was instantly sold. It is $10, huge, and delicious. It comes with a tortilla, half a lemon, and some onion garnish. I wish it was less oily, but despite this, I still found it to be so comforting. It really tastes like authentic homemade cooking made by my nonexistent Mexican grandmother. The place is counter-service, with lots of booths inside and outside if you want to dine in after ordering. Cute Mexican decor, too. Definitely recommend if you want local, genuine Mexican food at an inexpensive, no-frills place. read more

Del Yaqui - Mexican Near Me - Guadalupe, Arizona

Del Yaqui is a perfect family restaurant set in the city of Guadalupe inside the Yaqui reservation. Great food, genuinely kind people, in a nice, clean, sit-down family setting. All this at a reasonable price. And, they are open later than most other Mexican restaurants on Sunday evening. Recently, a friend told me of his experience at Del Yaqui, so I went on his recommendation. I was not disappointed. I ordered the chile verde plate, which came with rice and beans and two tortillas. The pork was perfectly tender, the green sauce was delicious, and the dinner was served hot. My friend ordered a meal with two tacos and the rice and beans as well. Finally, we also split a full bowl of the Caldo de Pollo (chicken soup), which came with its own tortillas as well. The soup was phenomenal. I absolutely love good soup, and this was a joy to eat. All the food came in good portions as well. The staff was very kind and explained the entrées, as well as making sure to accurately take our orders. Even though this is a counter-order restaurant, they still served the food to the table and graciously helped us when we had requests. The prices likewise were reasonable. Most meals were right at $11 each. If you are near the town of Guadalupe, do yourself a favor and try this little gem, Del Yaqui! You won't be disappointed! read more

Great restaurant whose food offerings go beyond the typical Mexican offerings. I had one of the better moles I've found in AZ and my wife a great Birria. Owner and staff very friendly. Clean and cheerful. Now a new fave when driving between Tucson and Prescott! read more

Post Quarantine Review 7.3.21 The best breakfast burrito in town! Del Yaqui is very near and dear to my heart. It's one of the local, hole in the wall gems that aren't typically found anymore. The owner or head chef can be found working everyday typically in the early AM hours. I love the tortilla here! And the Huevos Rancheros. This was a typical breakfast spot of mine, as it was nearby the office. We came here for 3-4 days ina. Row, took a break for a few months; and ended up coming back here for six days in a row. It's that good! Support Local AZ! I recommend Del Yaqui Plate! Thank you Señor Beto + The Crew! Try the delicious fresh Agua Fresca, the carne asada, or an authentic bottled Mexican Coke. There's also an awesome Jukebox and 2 crane game machines :) read more

This place is a "hole in the wall" but serves great food with outstanding service. You have to inside the Mercado plaza to find this gem.

Excellent, authentic Mexican food full of flavor! We can't wait to return. We highly recommend!

The food is excellent. I ordered the Horchata to drink, it is definitely one of the best Horchata out there. I also ordered the.Caldo de res, and it was excellent. Very few things when it comes to the soup and the other food that you eat coming out really good like the tacos al Pastore. They were also really tasty. Great little find. Must come and try I will definitely stop at this place again when I pass through here. read more

Great food, not one complain and have tried multiple items on their menu and not one has disappointed! Authentic Mexican food at its finest

Lovely place ! It's located inside a court with other shops and would've been lovely to sit inside as well (: I was greeted with a smile from the beautiful woman who made my meal. The food was amazing and stayed warm my whole drive home. There was so much meat!! Amazing value! I ordered two pozoles to celebrate my grandfathers birthday. He unfortunately passed last year and this place was a perfect way to remember him and celebrate him. I know he would have loved it!! I will for sure be back very soon to try other dishes! read more

I was in Phoenix last week while my parents were in town. My mom and I were exploring the area and she wanted some fresh Mexican food and this place popped up in my yelp search. I had a little trouble finding it because the entrance is not on the street - it's inside a little plaza. I ordered the sopes with carnitas and my mom had the enchiladas and a tamal. You know a place is legit when there's a bottle of Tapatio on every table - I was happy with that. But when she brought our food out, she brought out a bottle of homemade salsa that was even better. I poured it all over my sopes. The sopes were good - thick and crispy on the outside. The carnitas were flavorful if a bit on the dry side but still a bit greasy. My mom liked her enchiladas and tamal. Prices were super reasonable and the people working there were very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely come back if I lived in the area. read more

If you're feeling nostalgic and miss your abuelita's homemade food, this is a good place to visit. Everything from the menu, to the decor, to the bilingual staff will remind you of home. In fact, nothing screams 'Mexican childhood' as much as several older women calling you "mi niña" and "mi reina" as you're ordering your food, and those same women asking if you don't like their food when they notice your bowl is still half-full after half an hour. I had the red menudo and my sister had the birria. Both were good, but we didn't like that they left the bones in. I also wish they would have cut the meat in my soup in smaller chunks when preparing it. I found it a bit annoying having to spend a few minutes trying to cut those pieces with a spoon while my soup got cold. In summary: the food is good (although not the best authentic Mexican I've had) and the whole experience will remind you of home. They also get bonus points for offering menudo every day of the week instead of just weekends! read more

The term hole in the wall probably fits this place but don't let looks deter you. We had originally planned to go to another Mexican restaurant and the wait was so long we turned to Yelp to find another place close by. The one that came up as closest turned out to be Mexican seafood and lots o the party wasn't thrilled. The hostess at the place referred us here. We were not disappointed. It's counter service and the nice lady taking orders spoke minimal English. Fortunately one of our party spoke decent Spanish so all was well. This was not your chain restaurant food, it was pretty authentic. Several members of the party had quesadillas. They weren't little thin ones filled with cheese. You could have your choice of meat, chicken or beef and each piece was thick and juicy. Others of us chose Flautas which were so yummy, topped with avocado, lettuce and tomato. Another had seafood enchiladas which is said were amazing. Of course they were served with rice and beans. It's out of the way but worth the trip read more

Back here again you can't go wrong with this place everything is always fresh and delicious, I've tried pretty much the entire menu with the exception of their posole and that's what I'm having today and so far it smells and looks pretty bomb... read more

Thought myy mom was in the kitchen making the rice because it tasted just like hers. Chips were crispy and hot cantina style chips. I definitley recommend this spot!

We ate at the restaurant this time. You can see right into the kitchen and it was very clean. Tried the Lengua, Carnitas and Pastor street tacos this time. The Lengua was my favorite. So tender! FYI if you need to use the restroom be prepared to have the staff give you a key attached to 10 lbs of heavy chain and walking outside...this might be the time to practice the buddy system... The beans here are STOOPID good! They serve beer too! read more

This is good hole in the wall Mexican Food. It can be hard to find if you have never been before. It is located inside a Mercado that is closed off from the street. The food I have tried here is all solid. If you are into Menudo (can't say I've tried it) they serve it on the weekends and I heard it is really good from a couple of regulars that live in the area. I wouldn't say I would go out of my way to visit this restaurant, but if you are in the area and want solid and cheap Mexican food, check out Del Yaqui. Oh, and the owners are quite nice to top it off! read more

When it came down to picking a lunch spot I saw El Yaqui and wanted to give it a shot... It's in this really cool open air shopping complex walk to the back and you will find El Yaqui. Walked in and the staff was really friendly they seemed to have a lot of regulars going in and out... I ordered the # 1 (3 tacos and beans and rice 1st taco Lengua was really good 2nd taco Carne Asada was super good 3rd taco Pastor was good). Out of the three I would get the Carne Asada again really good salsa as well so this is a must stop for any fan of real deal street tacos. read more

Best Pozole near me. Very clean place to eat and not expensive. Everyone is nice and it's a big portion.

It's hard to spot this gem since it's inside the little plaza and can't see it from the street. I personally found it on yelp and wanted to try it out. Friendly folks at the counter. As authentic as it gets, I had the birria & wife had the caldo de res. Both were great. Highly recommend. read more

We had tried to eat at another local Mexican place, but the line was atrocious and Yelp pointed us here. It was wonderful! Not crowded, kind staff, and huge authentic portions. They accommodated our group easily and everyone left full and happy. I would highly recommend this place. read more

I am so glad I went to this place today. San Francisco has Chinatown and North Beach -- and we've got the town of Guadalupe. El Yaqui gets 5 stars from me, because having lived in the valley for almost all of my 34 years, this was the best quick Mexican food I've had, period. I've only been here twice -- once with my fiancee and once with the whole family. Both times it was great. I've had the pleasure of enjoying barbacoa and carne asada burritos. Damn, they were awesome! And only $3 each! Are you kidding me? This isn't some Filiberto's gritty-meat, dripping with grease burrito, either. The meat was very tender, the refried beans tasted homemade, the tortillas were tasty. Delish! The guacamole is what convinced me this place is the bomb. We ordered a large side of guac, and I have never tasted such a fresh and fruity, bursting with avocado flavor in my life. I think this recipe is unique to El Yaqui, and it's my new favorite for guac. We've ventured into Guadalupe occasionally for Farmer's Market produce, but we'll be going back a whole lot more now that we've discovered El Yaqui. My next Mexican Food mission is San Diego Bay, which is in the same plaza, and I found out is owned by the same family. So, the service was quick and friendly and there was plenty of seating inside and outside. If you've never explored Guadalupe, you're missing out. Start with El Yaqui. Invest $3 in one of their burritos and let me know what you think. Just a few final notes: -- some really authentic choices on the menu for the adventurous, including beef brain, head meat, and tongue. Like I said, I went with carne asada and the barbacoa -- which were excellent. -- same owner for the last 22 years (her son was working when we went so we got a little of the history) -- $3 burritos & tortas; $5 - 7.50 combinations / plates; $3.75 - 5.25 for breakfast with beans and rice; $2 Flan; $1.50 tamales -- yes El Yaqui has to be the best value around. -- Beer is served. -- open 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. -- you can't see this place from the street -- it's in an enclosed plaza. read more

So I went here twice and I hated it the first time. I don't know if I got a bad cut of meat or what, but my burrito was a bit too fatty. I think it was the red chile burrito, or something. Having said that, I recently gave it another shot and and went for the carne asada burrito. Very, very good. The cut of the beef is a little thicker than the usual Salazar's or Filiberto's burrito, but it was really good regardless. Oh, and the beans in there were awesome, too. It didn't have guacamole and I didn't notice till it was too late, but I'll be sure to get some in there next time. Overall, I give it 3 stars because i really hated my first visit, but their carne asada is completely legit. read more
