    Veggie Burrito

    Stopped by again Recently and food is back up to par. The fajitas were sizzling, the quality of meat was plenty and the food came out quick. Service was friendly and as usual plenty of veggie options outside of a Bean Burrito. Will return again!

    We came here on a Sunday with family visiting. They picked it because they had been their favorite, now it's a must stop spot when in town for them! Food was good! Drinks were good. It was an early day! Photo ops around the place with the decor. Service was nice and patient with the picky eater we had with us!

    Happy we stopped in for happy hour. Our sever was very attentive and our food came out correctly and hot! Although these were all good experiences, I must admit I wasn't "blown away" hence the 3 star rating. Again, our meal was good, just not above and beyond

    Queso Fundido

    Yum!! Stopped in and their food is so good! Although the outside isn't much, the inside is cozy. The staff were super friendly. The price point to ratio is spot on. The queso will have you dreaming about it as it's just that good. Everything was cooked to perfection and seasoned well.

    You will Love the Mexican Food, Delicious Happy Hour Food and Drinks. Love the atmosphere and decorations, and always great music too for All age groups. I Love taking clients or friends here to share in the INdoor experience. Your eyes will LOVE looking at the Booth/ Table Decorations that are Enjoyable and Authentic to boot!! Enjoy this Awesome Experience with Everyone and Any one you want to bring. You will not go wrong ordering Anything on the menu. Be Sure to order what u will with the jalepeno cream sauce- Not at All too spicy ( although it sounds like it would be- but not!) Pure delight to eat:) Enjoy!! Service is really good here too!! Been here Multitudes of times. And will Never stop going either:)

    I went on Saturday around 5:30p. There were t many people there so we were seated immediately. The restaurant decor was your typical Mexican restaurant decor. The chips and salsa and waitress came immediately and took our drink orders, which, since it was still Happy Hour, we ordered a couple of margaritas. For our entrees we ordered the Chile Relleno Chimichanga which comes smothered in a jalapeño cream cheese sauce which is my favorite and the Buld your own with: Fish taco, Chicken enchilada and Green Corn Tamale. Both dishes came with rice and beans. The food was delicious, that all I can really say. The first bite immediately had me knowing I was going to finish the whole burrito, even though I know I shouldn't have. I've live in Ahwatukee for over 30 years and however long they've been here I never thought to visit, until my sister told me. I wish I'd have gone sooner. Total bill $45 + tip

    La Casa de Juana has a tamed down menu to accommodate their clientele and not very authentic. There is nothing wrong with that. It is down the street from my almost 80 year old mother who can't handle chili anymore and her flavor palette is now set on basic. She had the chicken enchiladas and I had a piping hot bowl of albóndigas. Having a very hot bowl of caldo brought me back to my days as a kid where Nana would tell you to eat it so you cool down. Maybe it's psychosomatic, but it does make the heat manageable outside. Mom enjoyed her plate and I have to say the arroz verde is a bit of a surprise. Not anything you would see in most Mexican food joint. It was flavorful and not anything I would have expected. The dining area is very big with a small bar. It is very clean. The only thing that really didn't match with the food and motif is the reggaeton and tropical music playing. This will for sure be on Mom's rotation of places I take her for lunch!

    Beef tamales with red sauce  came with rice and beans . Great flavor and tamales were yummy.

    Food portions were great . Great flavor. Nice open space and the art they display along with the walls are beautiful accent pieces. Customer service was great and they were quick to attend to you. Definitely would come back .

    Beautifully decorated restaurant that is inviting. Fantastic service Great daily happy hour that's easy on the budget Complimentary chips and salsa - very mild homemade salsa and loved that the chips weren't overly salted House frozen margaritas on a hot day is the ticket. Queso dip is a bit thick and could be hotter but we enjoyed the taste Refried beans were your typical variety Rice had a great taste and something we both enjoyed Chicken Enchiladas tasted "Americanized" and could have used more sauce (were a bit dry) Creamy chipotle chicken - onions weren't cooked and tasted raw, wasn't creamy at all and chicken tasted as if it was boiled

    Beef and cheese enchiladas with the creamy jalapeño sauce added on top

    I had very high hopes for this restaurant. The website boasted authentic Mexican food so I was ready to give it a try. First off, the ambiance gets a 5/5. The place was decorated in a way that made it fun to look around. Hand painted murals were everywhere. Service was a 4/5. There was not a lot of people in the restaurant and I feel like it took a decent amount of time for the food to be brought out and the check to be brought. Server was nice though. The food was a 3/5. To start off we got the dip trio (queso, guacamole, and bean dip) and this dish was very underwhelming. It all had a premade taste and texture to it. The queso was very cream cheese forward which struck me as odd, and the beans were thick. Not a typical bean dip consistency. The guacamole looked like cheese and pico were thrown on top and had too smooth of a texture. Like it was blended or premade. Next came the entree. First thing I noticed was the creamy jalapeño sauce I paid extra to be topped on my enchiladas was the exact same sauce that was supposed to be "queso". The beans and guacamole that came on my plate were the same as the beans and guac in the dip trio. Honestly the only thing that made me rate the restaurant this high was the meat. It was seasoned very well and extremely tender. I think the tacos or fajitas would have shone a lot more. Overall, a good ambiance with a lot of potential, but okay for the price.

But I wanted something hearty after donating blood the day before at Phoenix Fan Fusion. I felt like I didn't eat enough to replenish all of the corpuscles I shed, so a hearty late breakfast was in order. I was pleasantly thrilled with my choice of Presidio Cocina Mexicana, as the late breakfast I ordered did not disappoint! I ordered the Chilaquiles, which are essentially breakfast nachos, and you have a choice of protein to add. I chose the birria beef which was perfectly slow-cooked and complemented the corn tortilla chips, cheese, and eggs superbly. I opted for both the red chile and green chile sauce which coated the chips along with a generous layer of tangy cotija cheese. I asked for the eggs scrambled and they cooked them just how I like them... fairly dry and in a thin griddled layer. Add to this mound of well-seasoned goodness a decent dolloping of Tapatio hot sauce (and salt and pepper on the eggs) and I had endless perfect bites of spicy, meaty brekkie goodness that brought delighted yummy sounds from my grateful gullet! This was quality food and the couple at the bar next to me raved about the Menudo, so it has all the hallmarks of authentic Mexican fare. It restored me from borderline anemic to my usual strutting rugged caballero self. "¡Arriba, arriba! ¡Ándale, ándale!"

So you come in the side door to the dining room . Wait staff all greet you and guide you to the dining room, festooned with roses and talavera tiles. It's not kitschy, just gorgeous. The menu is ample and you can't go wrong with anything. The initial refrito dip, tho yummy, has pork. But they have the best, the absolute best black beans!! Try them just for a change. You'll be converted. The dining area is small but cozy and beautifully done. So enjoy!!

The restaurant is inside of an old brick home with wood interior and warm colors. The service was good-- friendly and food came out at a good pace, we were checked on regularly. We ordered an appetizer and then entrees from the lunch menu. The aguachile appetizer is SO good. It's bright, fresh, and has a lot of flavor in the green sauce. It reminds me of a ceviche type dish due to its raw butterflied shrimp that is marinated in the house made chile serrano & cilantro citrus sauce. It was awesome. We were also given free chips & house made bean dip. I ordered the mixed two item plate with a chile rellano and taco corazon (grilled taco dipped in a red chile sauce, stuffed with shredded beef & melted cheese. Topped with grilled onions). The black beans and rice is also tasty. I tried a bite of the other dishes, and I also really liked the brightly colored spinach & cheese enchiladas with pink sauce ( signature beet sauce). I look forward to trying other items from the menu, I was eyeing the steak Mexicano or red snapper. Those dishes sound good for dinner.

For the table, Camarones Locos is an easy choice. The flame grilled shrimp comes out hot and full of flavor, perfect for passing around. La Patrona ceviche tower is massive and worth the order. When it hits the table, you immediately feel good about the decision. El Pulpazo is technically an entrée, but we always order it as a shareable. The octopus is grilled perfectly and it comes with rice and beans, so everyone gets a little of everything. For entrées, my number one pick is the Lobster and Crab Enchiladas with green sauce.

    This review is for the totality of the experience…read more I made an advance reservation at Alma Scottsdale for a mid-sized group of 7 to celebrate a special occasion. Our party arrived right on time for our reservation, but we were not seated until 15 min later because our table was not ready. It took about an additional 15 min to get tap water for the table (there was not enough provided anyways), and to place our orders too another ~20 min. The food did not arrive until 30 min later. For context, we eventually learned that the restaurant was short staffed and the bartender was also operating as our waiter. When the food finally arrived, there was a mix-up on what was delivered. We had checked with the staff who delivered one of the dishes: we ordered the "wild mushroom" side, but what we received did not look quite like it. We asked clarifying questions x2, but were assured, "no, it is the wild mushroom." Turned out, it was the mushroom empanada that was delivered to our table, which we originally did not order. The management did rectify the situation upon the conclusion of the event when we were paying the bill, but to us, it felt a bit accusatory as if we intentionally wanted to cause a huge fuss about the final total, which was absolutely not the case. The food in general was delicious. If this was a more standard dining experience, it would have been 4-5 stars just for the food. The service was very subpar, and really colored the entire experience negatively, therefore the two star review. I understand that staffing shortages happen -- fine. My family has worked in food service as wait staff for 25+ YEARS, so I am empathetic. But for management to ring up our bill and then come confront us in an inflammatory manner, making us feel like we were wrong, on an occasion to celebrate something special, was extremely disappointing.
