    Side of rice and beans
    Janelle F.

    I'm a lover of all things local and today I found the most wonderful place. If I'd of listened to some of the reviews I read or based my stop on what the outside looked like I'd of missed something amazing. One of my pleasures in life is stealing away a little time with my family for some food or fun and sharing that experience with others. Today we stopped in to try Limón Urban Kitchen. I've driven by a handful of times and decided to stop this time. While the parking lot was a bit of a mess and half closed for repaving I was able to find a spot close by. The outside doesn't do it justice since it sits in an unassuming shopping small, but it has a great outdoor patio with misters and TVs. Once inside I was a little unclear if I needed to wait or be seated because no one was at the hostess station. Soon after however a wonderful woman came up, greeted us and promptly took us to our table. She took our drink orders left us a few menus and time to look them over. We ordered chips and salsa (.99 an order, but very clear on the menu) while we decided. I was pleased to see they offer breakfast until noon daily. The menu has some great options, but my eyes quickly went to the vast taco options. 12 to be exact. Did you know here you can even order a 10 taco flight? Yum! The tacos come à la carte so rice and beans or other sides are extra. Great prices though for portion size. I chose three tacos; green chili pork, chili lime shrimp and beef barbacoa with a side of rice and beans. We also ordered the fajitas. There is a full bar and many TVs inside as well. They offer trivia nights as well. It was not busy when we arrived, but quickly noticed a lot of door dash and walk in orders. Everything came out fairly quick and looked beyond fantastic. Let me tell you I love love love shrimp tacos and this was phenomenal. Filled to the brim and seasoned well with a good kick to it. My barbacoa had good flavor as well. The green chili pork was good but I think I'd prefer that one with corn tortillas next time as it got soggy from the juices. That's personal preference though and I'll remember to ask next time. The rice and bean side portions were huge and I didn't come close to finishing them. The pinto beans were seasoned well. The fajitas stole the show for sure. They were so full of meat, not chewy and didn't skimp out like most places around. The veggies were portioned out well too but if you're looking for a place that actually gives you good meat portions this is your spot. My husband raved about them. They also gave 6 tortillas which again was great because typically you're lucky if you get 4 max. They offer happy hour daily from 3-6pm. At the end I asked if the restaurant was locally owned or a chain and I was pleased and surprised to find out the woman waiting on us the entire time was one of the owners. Her husband soon walked by and she introduced him as well. They were both so lovely. We were told his mother is the cook in the back and while she runs the front he and his mom do a lot of the back behind the scenes. You could tell the love that really goes into this place and the flavors full of it as well. They said they are hopeful of a second location soon and we can't wait for it to happen. Hopefully nearby us so we can support more often. Prices were more than fair for portion size. Please show your support by stopping in and help this amazing family crush their dreams. Everything was delicious and well worth the stop. Don't let some of these ridiculous negative reviews stop you.

    Bad rice

    Got their signature Fajitas the rice was dry and crusty, and the salsa was the worst I've ever had in any restaurant the service was average overall

    Limon Urban Kitchen is really a Mexican Sports Bar Restaurant located in north Phoenix. They offer breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. They gave us complimentary warm chips and tasty salsa. We added on the house made roasted white poblano queso. The queso for my taste could use more cheese and more poblano. I tried the lettuce fajita wraps. I thought they'd be wrapped up for me but they weren't. Actually all the hot meat and vegetables were piled over the lettuce so the lettuce sort of disintegrated and was next to impossible to use. BUT THE CHICKEN WAS TRULEY GREAT! It might have been the very best fajita chicken that I have ever tasted anywhere. It was developed with amazing flavors and was so tender and delicious. My husband tried the enjitomatada plate (carne asada). I tried a small piece of beef and it also was delicious and tender. I highly recommend to get anything with that same fajita chicken.

    Tasty margarita.
    Meridith H.

    We stopped and sat at the bar. The margarita was really good and nicely balanced. The queso,large portion, lacked flavor, heat, seasoning. Very bland. Chips were fresh. The asada taco was delicious though! It had flavor and lots of toppings. Reasonable prices and friendly service

    I loved their delicious tacos and taco salad, as well as their great drinks and friendly service. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with a modern decor that's perfect for a night out with friends or a date. Prices are reasonable, and the portions are generous. Limon Urban Kitchen is a great choice for anyone looking for a fun night out with great food and drinks. Definitely check it out!

    Beef fajitas
    Tanya S.

    It was our first time there. The food was okay. The vegetables were fresh and the meat was tender. The rice and beans were bland, they needed more seasoning. The portions were average size. When we sat down we were served chips and salsa, like many restaurants do, however when the bill came we were charged for the chips and salsa. The salsa was very good so I had no problem paying for it but feel the presentation was deceiving.

    The place has changed a bit over the years. The new menu is good. Enchiladas were a bit different but nice. Plated with 4 small cheese enchiladas, a small side of chicken, and some potatoes. Nice presentation. A little on the spicy side but great! The food came out fast and the restaurant was very clean. The music was a little loud and clubby though. The chicken fajitas came with alot of chicken too. Portions were great for the price.

    Best toast EVERRRRR!!

Every time I come here it gets more packed, which is both annoying and completely understandable because the food is ridiculously good. The tacos are fantastic, the fries are life-changing, and the hongos fries specifically deserve their own national holiday. This place made the Top 100 food spots in America list, and honestly? Deserved. It's the best taco spot in the country in my opinion and makes places like Torchy's feel like they're competing in junior varsity. The vibe is also way above average for a taco joint; lively, clean, and full of people who look like they just took their first bite and immediately started planning their next visit. The taco crew is always friendly too, even while dealing with lines longer than a DMV on a Monday. If you don't know what to order, here's the move: Get one taco or an especial if you're a cheese enthusiast, a medium fry with your topping of choice, and guac with chips. That's the kind of meal that makes you sit in your car afterward thinking about your life choices in a positive way. Enjoy. And maybe stretch beforehand because you're going to want to fight someone over the last hongos fry.

I feel like thats a rubios or mc Donald's vibe. Ceviche should be like $11, $14 wasn't worth it. Vegetable taco should be cheaper than all the tacos and it was just sweet potato inside. The tacos are good but they're not what I was expecting. This is more of a fast food style taco. The whole restaurant reminds me of Rubios. The only things we didn't like were the chips and the rice and beans were not good at all, not even Mexican. But like I said the food is good with nice flavors but for a $5 taco I expected plates and table service. No one wants to stand up to order a marg and then order another one after, they'll prob just order 1 marg and go somewhere else when they're done eating, it's not smart. It's not relaxing to eat here after work. We were all fighting for the tables and it's not a vibe. Not enough inside seats and tons of outdoor seats. I'd totally tell the owner to close up the register area, expand the kitchen, and get the girls to be servers. No one wants to pay full price ceviche and tacos to a restaurant with no table service. The vibe doesn't match the price so I think you should change the vibe to be high end and step up service to match the prices of food. Or match the vibe to a fast food all the way and change some prices. The food is fast so they can easily do a drive thru or walk up and order window. Should be $3 for veggie, $4 for regular taco $5 for loaded or special tacos with expensive The guac matches the vibes! Sold in plastic cups. And $6.50 $4 on happy hour. That explains the vibes of the restaurant perfectly.

Out of all the restaurants I had before leaving Arizona, THIS ended up being one of the places I couldn't stop thinking about after I moved away.

So when I came back out to Phoenix recently to visit some friends, this was one of the first places I knew I needed to come back to because I had built it up so much in my head over time. And somehow... it was just as good again. The meat tastes incredibly fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned, and you can literally watch them prepare everything right in front of you, which makes the whole experience even better. There's something so satisfying about seeing the tacos being made fresh instead of food just appearing from the kitchen. You can tell they care about quality and consistency. The servers were also super friendly and welcoming both times I came here, which honestly makes such a difference. Everyone had great energy, the service was quick, and the whole place just feels inviting and authentic. I honestly think the fact that I remembered this place so vividly for so long says everything. Usually when you revisit a restaurant after hyping it up in your head for years, it ends up disappointing you. But this place tasted exactly how I remembered it, fresh, flavorful, comforting, and absolutely worth the obsession. Safe to say this place is officially a mandatory stop for me anytime I'm back in Phoenix now.
