We are vegetarian and so glad we found Irene's while passing through town. Globe is known for its traditional Mexican food so finding a place that doesn't use lard in the beans here is tough, and finding an open restaurant on a Tuesday that's isn't Mexican is tougher. They have a small separate menu with their vegetarian friendly items which was also nice. We ordered a couple burritos with the whole bean alternative and chips/salsa came with the meal and everything was reasonably priced. Clean establishment and parking was easy, staff are also friendly and accommodating. read more

Food was good but the server was horrible. Waitress was rude, ignored us & I literally had to yell at her across the room to get her attention. I guess Chalos will be our choice from here on in. read more

The food was very good and a huge portion. The service was top notch- our gal made sure we had everything we needed and came by several times to make sure all was well. read more

The food was terrible!!!!. Food had no flavor, everything tasted weird. Sorry Irene you need to get another cook and better ingredients. read more

Food was great! Some of the best house made salsa ever! Clean,friendly and great service. Unique idea of providing a carafe of each person's beverage for no wait refills and double plating the meals so you don't burn your fingers! read more

I absolutely love this place! It's clean, super fast, friendliest waiters and such great food! I've been coming here for years doing takeout orders as I pass through town. I recently decided to dine in and loved the experience. We ordered a cheese quesadilla for the kids and my husband and I had beef tacos, beans and cheese enchiladas and everything was so flavorful and perfect. Highly recommend the #1 with double beans! Can't wait to return next time I'm in Globe! read more

Nice service. Salsa was good cold but spicy and chips fresh! #4 combo was almost great, the beef taco and bean tostado were tasty, the beef tamale was dry but the beans and were also good! I had the salad with green chili and refried beans and no shell. It was delicious and filling. The green chili was a little runny which made the salad and refried beans a little soupy but still good. Tender pork and beef. Great waitress read more

Back to the #1 place for Menudo! We just had a fresh batch and it was delicious!!! Time to redo the seating in the booths: seats are completely crashed. Very good service!! read more

We stopped here for lunch since it advertised outdoor seating (see picture) but we started anyway and boy am I glad that we did. It is a small place with booths and tables. The service was very good. They came out with free chips and salsa. The chips were nice and fresh and the salsa was wonderful- smooth, a bit smoky, and had a nice heat at the back of the mouth. Hubby ordered a #10 combo. The taco was excellent, nice beef/steak inside; the chili rellenos was very good, and the enchilada , which was hard to find with everything else on the plate was excellent. I had #6. I opted for a green chili burrito that was amazing. The chili rellenos was very good and the tostada was nice. Both plates came with rice and beans that was very tasty but more than you could eat. Next time Globe I know where we will eat. read more

I don't know why this place doesn't have better reviews. I thoroughly enjoyed my chicken burrito enchilada style with red sauce. Our server was incredibly kind without being overbearing. She's a local that was born and raised in Globe. We had time to chat a little and learn about her thoughts and feelings about her hometown and she has nothing but kind and loving things to say. I'm very impressed with our entire experience there. It's a family friendly restaurant with amazing food and I highly recommend! read more

Wow don't know what happened. This place used to be great. Patsy was friendly but got our order wrong and charged us a lot For something we didn't order. The salsa tastes like a spicy tomato sauce. It was sweet and not good. The green chili chimichanga was also sweet. Didn't care for it. My man ordered a carne asada burrito and end up getting a gollo plate that they charged double for. Nothing tasted good. The sodas were flat. Hate to say it. But we won't go back. Sad to see things change. I'm giving two stars to be kind. read more

Really good, simple Mexican food with very good prices. Friendly staff, quick service.

Great combo dishes, I like the enchiladas here and the great ambiance, very friendly! Service is really good and folks are very friendly. Good for groups not so much fun alone. read more

Globe - Miami Mexican food is really as good as the legends claim. I've been coming to Irene's for many years and gotta say, a regular burro enchilada style with a taco is excellent every time. They've been short staffed lately but that's kinda everywhere these days. The server on my last visit was busting his tail to keep up with the customer volume. And as expected, when the food arrived, everyone in my group cleaned their plates off. Tasty. Tasty. Do yourself a favor. Try all of the Mexican places in Globe and Miami. read more

The service was amazing. My chicken enchiladas were very dry. The beans were great . My plate was supposed to come with rice and there was not any. I cannot recommend this restaurant in good faith. read more

The service was very friendly. We ordered a combination plate. The cheese enchilada and taco were good. The refried beans were very good, but tamale was a little dry. The bean tostada was very plain should have a little meat on it. Kitchen cooks were handling food with their hands. Should have gloves on. read more

So headed back to South Dakota where good Mexican food is fairly rare and so we stopped at Irene's for lunch to top off with AZ Mexican food. Yum. Very, very good. The place filled up quickly as lunchtime loomed and knew we had picked a good one. Stop by and give it a try. Will be a regular for us when we head south for the winter. read more

Well obviously they have the best Hot Wings around here, but the red chili is quite good too! Order your burros enchilada style, it just makes everything better! 5 x Trudy read more

Awesome food! Affordable daily specials and the wait service is outstanding! Five stars

Service is very fast for a sit down eatery. The staff are all friendly and attentive but not hovering. The beans, rice and main dish was delish. The quac. and salsa was fair. This was our first time and we'd definitely try again, but do prefer nearby Los Robertos for their sauces and burros. The great thing about Irene's is the breadth of their menu- so take a look at that for sure- something for everyone! read more

Stopped in hungry not knowing Globe. Great service, no fuss no muss, just real delicious food. You walk in and seat yourself, the waitstaff is kind and welcoming.

Well it's me again! Someone told me in Phoenix that Globe, Arizona has Great Mexican food!! I questioned him because he was Blanco and a town of 7300 people....but I'm on a quest! So I decided to try one of the 5 or so Mexican restaurants that popped up on Yelp. Irene's Real Mex FOOD I asked Elena the waitress what she recommends and she said they are known for their Green Chile....I really questioned that coming from the Hatch Green Chile capital of the world...New Mexico! But I went with her recommendation and got the Green Chile burrito and I was blown away on the the taste...OMG it tasted so much like my moms! Not exactly but Damn close! I didn't try anything else but this was to die for! Service was awesome , beers were cold and the salsa was a bit sweet for me but was a unique flavor. read more

A very clean restaurant! The bathrooms are also clean as well. Chips and salsa are served prior to entree. I ordered the green chili chicken chimichanga and it came with rice and beans. I didn't care too much about the beans but the rice was decent. The guacamole was a bit on the spicy side. Not so much that it's intolerable but not what I'm used to compared to other guacamole. Pretty good fo read more

Irene's Real Mexican Food - Addicting Salsa with homemade chips - Mexican Near Me - Globe, Arizona

Delicious food and they serve beer even margaritas! Joshua was the best server. Genuine and attentive. Thank you for a great passer by meal.

Came in after being on the road for seven hours. Tired, hungry, and thirsty. After a few minutes one person greeted me and said I will be right back, then another brought me some really spicy salsa and some really fresh chips. She brought me a beer and pint glass in a timely manner. The food came out piping hot from the microwave. It took a few minutes for the #5 combo plate to cool down enough to eat. The bean and beef burro was great, the taco was nice but the meat was bland, and the enchilada was ok. Rice and beans were ok. The ambience is very sterile. Kind of like a diner which is fine. All of the employees were kind and friendly. Food was good enough. read more

We are not from this town wanted to try something new. We love Mexican restaurants wherever we go. We tried chalos so we saw the sign "real Mexican food" on the window. The place feels dark and servers could be more enthusiastic. I find it very unusual to be serving chicken wings, mozzarella sticks and buffalo chicken salads at a restaurant that advertises "real Mexican food." My husband got combo 10 which he liked. He wanted it with shredded beef but they didn't add shredded beef. He enjoyed the Chile relleno because it was flavorful but he wished it was spiced. The taco was gold because had cheese crusted onto it. I ordered the Chicken fajita. My chicken was on a hot plate so I'm used it coming out sizzling on top of peppers and onions. Honestly, looked like someone dumped a can of cat food. But was horrible just ok. Rice was ok. I would try another place bext read more

The band (Johnny Anonymous) and I were in town for a gig on New Year's Eve and between sound check and hitting the stage we decided to find a bite to eat. Most places closed due to the holiday and we stumbled across this place. MAN was the food here awesome. I got a 3 combo plate it had a taco, burro and enchilada. All cooked like you were at home. read more

Stopped by for a quick Halloween lunch on the way to the Apache Gold. The wait staff were all in costume and interior was decorated: making for a fun environment. Good salsa - but the chips were not warm. Service was great. But the food was outstanding! Excellent bean and cheese burrito for less than $3! I had the daily special around $8 which was a pork burrito in green sauce. The green sauce was wonderful, but the burrito had re-fried beans inside and was accompanied by more re-fried beans and rice, thus a bit of an overkill on the beans. Less than $25 with tax & tip and 2 Imported beers We'll definitely be back! read more

Where came from phx we love the restaurant the waiter Joshua he's awesome It's all about the respect and that's what he gave us what is your service is good we'll be back read more

Great Mexican cuisine. I LOVE their salsa!! If you're looking for something different, their chicken wings are fantastic!! Their Customer Service is awesome! read more

Good service, but the food completely missed the mark. You can usually tell the meal how good Mexican meal is is going to be based on the chips and salsa. I tried the tacos, chicken fajitas, and wings. I found the tacos and fajitas to be extremely bland and greasy. The taco dish was covered with lots of cheese. The wings weren't bad and probably were the best part of the meal. The waitress was extremely nice and the food came out quickly. They also serve bottled beer and wine coolers. I was on a motorcycle ride to Salt River Canyon and stopped here based on the strong recommendation from a local I met at a gas station. The place was packed, but there has to be better options for Mexican food in Globe. For a town that prides itself on its Mexican food, I was disappointed. read more

When in globe and you want a decent meal stop here. It is a seat yourself place and the menus are already placed on the tables. The waitress was quick to get our drink order and bring chips and salsa to the table. I ordered the chicken chimichanga plain with rice only. I'm a huge fan of Spanish rice and extremely picky with rice. Our order was brought to us with a push serving cart which is a huge no no in the restaurant industry. The plates were hot so they double plated the plates which is another no no. The guacamole was spicy which was a disappointment because everyone loves guac with Mexican food. However not everyone loves spicy food. The chimichanga was actually quite delicious and I would order it again. read more

I walked in and sat myself- it was a pretty busy lunch crowd, most were already eating. Somebody was over fairly quickly to take my order. I had a regular burro, enchilada style with a side of rice. While I waited, I noticed how very, very clean the restaurant is. There was a lady wiping down tables and chairs and I could smell cleaning mixture from my table. It may have been too strong, but that doesnt bother me at all. I LOVE a restaurant that is clean and sanitary. I have been to too many dirty places that this was a refreshing change. I waited 25 minutes for my food. I was starting to get ansy because I only had a 45 minute lunch break. When my food finally did come out, it was piping hot, straight out of the oven or whatever- WAHOO! It's always good to know that my food didn't sit in the window for 10 minutes. I tried the rice first and it had to be the fluffiest rice I have ever eaten- I now have a new standard of Excellence for spanish rice because of Irene's! Once my burro cooled a little, I enjoyed it. The red sauce was good, the beans were a tiny bit too runny but good flavor and the beef chunks inside were great, but not very much- more meat and it would have been perfect. The downside? I only saw my waitress 2 times: to take my order and bring me my food, she never reappeared to check my drink, which quickly needed a refill after my hot food came out. This is a good clean restaurant with a nice seasonal decor, you can tell someone really takes pride in how this place looks and presents itself. The food is like the name implies, Real Mexican Food, not cold, greasy imitation. I would absolutely come back and I would bring family and friends. read more
