We went there for dinner. We beat the dinner rush. Our service was fast and friendly. I ordered chicken taco salad and my husband barria tacos. The food came out quickly. It was fresh and tasted amazing. We just moved to this side of town. We definitely found our new favorite I would definitely recommend this if you are looking for a local favorite. read more

Husband, son, Mexican-American daughter-in-law and I had breakfast at Nana's during our recent house hunting trip. They raved about Nana's and we were not disappointed with the authentic Sonoran food which is NOT Tex-Mex or Tijuana Mexican fare. The service was excellent. We lived in Tucson for many years and, after we return, I don't doubt that we will frequent Nana's whenever Mexican food cravings strike. Yumm! read more

stopped by this restaurant based on yelp ratings/reviews, traveling California back to Texas on i10. we definitely have our share of Mexican restaurants where we live, and this one is pretty good. pros: quality of food was outstanding, atmosphere: kind of small & diner-like, but nice & clean with good music (my pet peeve, lol), staff/waitor were great but brings me to my only con really, the service was very friendly, just a bit slow. only other con was the chips/salsa came out minutes before our entree. neither cons were deal breakers however and not only would I come back, but i would recommend it. read more

We like to patronize local places, not chains. They don't have a lunch menu so the prices are dinner prices (if your going out for lunch) pretty pricey. Had tacos beans and rice, $20.00 a little to pricey for these parts. Beans and rice seemed like they were heated in the microwave, everything was very salty. Tacos were shredded beef and very soggy-salty too, I was hoping it would be better. Chips seemed store bought. Nice staff but would not return. read more

Had to go back because a co-worker wanted to eat there on her birthday. Nana's was still horrible. I can't believe the doors are still open. read more

The iced tea was light brown water- we asked the waitress to take it away & just bring us water. That should have been our first warning. Salsa & chips were not very good at all. I ordered the flat enchiladas which in my experience in both making & having them at other places, they are made from masa, these were corn tortillas I did eat them since our waitress disappeared but was very disappointed. My husband ordered the tacos again not great! Our waitress never returned apparently she left after serving our food & told the lady that I ended asking our bill for to watch out table. Well so much for that! The food & service are horrible!!!!! Stay away!!! read more

I stopped here for breakfast after visiting Saguaro National Park and had the Huevos con Chorizo. The good was delicious but the staff was even better! I read about the good service shortly before coming and was not disappointed. She took such good care of me, I felt like I was at home. If I ever pass through Tuscon again I will definitely return! read more

Absolutely wonderful! Great service and even better food, with very generous portions. You must try this place!

WOW... what a wonderful place! --- Great people and outstanding food. We live in Wisconsin and came to Tucson for a get away weekend. We heard about Nana's Kitchen from some friends back home. Okay, so we decided to try it out. Our first impression of the place was simple with not much Mexican flair. The large room had several plain four top tables. We learned later the huge wall painting had some history on how it was painted. It was funny listening to Javier tell us the story. This is a family owned business with delicious food. The shrimp wrapped in bacon, the pork loin with pineapple and the beef barris were outstanding. . They immediately made us all feel welcome, relaxed and comfortable. I had the privilege to step back into Nana's Kitchen. The place was spotless. Floors were clean and the countertops sparkled. The best part of the evening was the entertainment provided by the owner, father, brothers and other staff. The love of the business truly shined throughout the night. We can not wait to return Nana's Kitchen to enjoy her marvelous food and most memorable fun. Thank you! Richard and Terry Meeker Robert and Laura Wieske read more

Poor customer service..waited about 15 min before anybody even brought us menus, i got the enchiladas banderas and it was extremely gross! The green sauce was so sour and by far the worse of the three. The cheese wasn't even fully melted, felt like thick clumps not gooey like cheese enchiladas should be. Rice and beans were bland. Super overpriced and most definitely will not be returning ever again! read more

We stopped by this place on our way home to Phoenix and it was the best decision! Everything from the food to the margaritas and service deserves more than 5 stars! The place and the family who owns the restaurant makes you feel right at home!! We definitely plan on making frequent trips just for Nana's kitchen! So glad we stopped it was definitely the highlight of the day!! This is the best place to come for a great authentic taste!! Can't wait to go back and try more off the menu!! read more

We love this place. Been living in the area for almost 8 years now and this place is consistently good. If you're new to Tucson and you never had a Chimi down here, Nana's has really good ones. Try it with their chipotle sauce. The bomb! read more

Food was great!! The Tres leches cake was amazing. They seemed to be short staffed but our waitress was great.

We were greeted by Nana herself and she waited on us too. (Got there early and it hadn't gotten busy yet.) She was very cordial and friendly. The food was very good (had two different kinds of shredded beef burritos: yummy!)--all homemade from Nana's mother's recipes. Even the refried beans were very good!!! read more

My husband and I had heard the food here was very good. We both ordered their chile colorado with potatoes and asked the waitress if the chile was hot. She said yes. The chile had a sweetness to it. Not hot at all. Service was very bad. The waitress kept making excuses as to why she was not attentive but was very attentive to those patrons who seemed to be regulars. The food was flavorful but when you order "hot" (spicy) at a Mexican restaurant you expect hot. One experience was enough. read more

We drive all the way from the southeast to eat here. Food is beyond wonderful, service is always great. If anyone likes Tortilla soup, it's better than homemade. Took off one star because the ace could use some Devore updates but the food, all of it is outstanding. read more

the breakfast is amazing!! you can tell its homemade, and it was delicious! the service was great as well!

This restaurant continues to get worse the longer they are open. I'm sitting in restaurant right now and it took 25 minutes to get any service. Yes they were somewhat busy but they should have enough staff to accommodate the patrons. I see staff scurrying about with no purpose and not servicing the customers. Nana's kitchen owners wake up and take care of your customers. read more

The food is pretty good but the margaritas are AMAZING! Family run restaurant - warm atmosphere. Decor lacking but has a warm family run feel. read more

We left Tucson 8 years ago and moved to the White Mountains. No one on the mountain has Mexican food as good as Nana. It was a pleasure to be welcomed back as family and the food is still top notch and authentic. It is all scratch. read more

I eat here what seems like almost daily- Breakfast, lunch, and dinner! Such an amazing family run business, their Beans, burritos, tortilla soup, chips, salsa, sangria margarita- all excellent! Nana's always makes you feel welcome and part of the family. Screw native, head to Nana's! Plus they even now have a big screen TV! read more

Our first trip was not the best so we'd tried one more time. We bought a coupon since we go to a movie theater near the restaurant.The service was awful the last time. This time it was excellent. A complete 180. The food remains OK. The cheese crisp was a 3 out of five. Burned in places on the bottom, but just in places. The shredded beef tacos were a 4 on taste a 3 overall since they were mini me shells. $10 for three tacos, you'd expect a bigger shell. So they redeemed themselves with the great service, but Nana's remains a groupon stop only for us. read more

Friendly waiter. Excellent margarita. Food was very good but for lunch was a bit pricey.

Love this place! The food is fantastic, and the family that runs the restaurant is top notch. Try the carne asada or the Nanas tacos!

The perfect place to really experience real Mexican food. A must go to if you want real Mexican food.

Had the patty tacos , rice and beans,delicious ! great services . Our waitress was courtesy and prompt. Marcos always greets us. Happy seven years and many more to come! read more

We are driving through the Tucson area as we move from one coast to the other. While staying at the La Quinta Inns and Suites we asked about recommendations to local restaurants for dinner. The front desk person highly recommended Nana's Kitchen, and after having a fabulous dinner we can see why. I had the Steak Milanese and it was perfect. Very tender and flavorful. I don't know what they marinate the steak in, but each bite was full of the flavor of the marinade. The coating was a perfect crust for the steak. My wife had a taco salad, without meat. All the ingredients were fresh and the taco shell was light and not greasy. She also had a margarita, and commented how she liked the fact it did not taste like it was from a mix, but evidently scratch made. We topped off the meal with the flan, and again the flavors were spot on.The restaurant was clean and bright and clearly family friendly. If you find yourself anywhere near Nana's do yourself a favor and take the time to have an authentic and wonderful Mexican Food meal. read more

I was born and raised in Tucson so I have eaten my share of Mexican food and Nana's is at the top of my list!!! The flat enchilada's are perfect....topped with green olives as they should be and an excellent red sauce. I crave these. The refried beans and rice are the perfect accompaniment. I wish I could tell you about more of their dishes but I am hooked on the flat enchiladas. I can say that every time I have come the people I am with have always truly enjoyed their meals with no complaints!! They have amazing margaritas and a friendly staff that is there to please! read more

This is the best restaurant for those of us on the northwest end of town and well worth a trip from anywhere in Tucson. Everyone is so friendly and the food is fabulous. They also serve the best margaritas, especially those with the homemade sangria! read more

I had the lunch special for $6.25. 1 large shredded beef burrito with a little shredded lettice on the side of the plate. The burrito had nothing in it but meat. As I was eating it a water-like juice started dripping out of the bottom and by the time I was 1/3 of the way into it the entire plate was covered with this juice. I could not even set the burrito down on the plate because it would ruin the tortilla. I asked the waiter for some napkins and then a new plate. I received one but the lettice was now gone. The waiter tried to explain that this was water and not grease, which was true but none the less a real sloppy mess. I was disappointed and would never order that again. My wife loved her tacos, rice and beans. I did not think the burrito was anything great even if it did not flood the plate, and was not worth $6.25 read more

Overpriced, loud, and not especially good. Chips were slightly stale, salsa was decent, waiter was inattentive. Sat down for dinner at 7PM, and was told food had been prepared "this morning." Tucson (and Marana) has many other offerings that provide a better value and experience. read more

Drove down to Tucson last weekend for a family visit. My brother and sister-in-law met us a Nana's. They said it's their favorite local Mexican food haunt, especially breakfast. I had the huevos rancheros with a green sauce with side of beans. The egg was perfectly prepared, the flavors outstanding and beans were quite flavorful. I enjoyed the meal as well as being treated well by a very courteous wait staff. We'll be back. read more

Nana's Kitchen had better taste ther food before they serve it. We ate at Nana's a few times, the first time was great, the second time was not so great, the bean had a sweet taste to them which meant they were spoiled, the rice was tasteless and the enchiladas were lacking flavor. Today we thought we would give them the benefit of doubt. We ordered the Fajita dinner, the meat was burned, and we were only given two medium size tortillas which clearly was not enough so we asked for two more. So when we got the bill we noticed that we were charged 1.15 for two extra tortillas. Shame on you Nana's Kitchen you just lost us cutomer's. read more

Great place eat here alot never a bad time people are the best! Thanks Nana for always great food and time:)

The Michaladas are amazing!!! Foods pretty dang good too. Love that it's a Mom & Pop shop.

Delicious! Had late lunch on a Monday and the place was pretty much empty. Seated and attended to quickly by Nana herself! I ordered the Carna Asada taquitos and devoured them. Really liked the dollop of guac under the carne Asada--added nice flavor and held everything together so didn't fall apart. Beans and rice were good too. Big portions! My daughter loved it because she could get pancakes which were light and fluffy. Very good. Next time I am in Tucson I will stop by again! Thank you! read more

This is my favorite restaurant. They make me and my husband feel like family. I love that it is a family restaurant. It is clean and they care about their customers. The food is delicious and the portions are generous. Nana's desserts are the best! read more

We love this place. The food is great and the staff make you feel like family. I just wish they were open on Sunday evenings!

I go to Nana's because of the following: food is excellent, the family who runs Nana's (good job Nana) are super attentive and remember you when you enter the door. Service is always the best! I have read some of the reviews here and see that others may disagree with me.. my only suggestion is don't throw Nana's under the bus until you try it. Nana's Enchilada Sonoran Sauce Rocks! read more

Awful food, service and experience. My family and I just finished eating at this establishment. The waitress did not offer or bring chips and salsa. We looked around and saw that every other table had them. She brought out our food and never returned. At one point I asked my wife if we had done something to deserve this kind of service. Nana had to ask our waitress to get our bill which still took her another 10 minutes. I ordered a $5 frozen margarita and was charged $8 for a margarita that had crushed ice chunks throughout. Very expensive for small portions that did not taste good. Tucson has plenty of better options for Mexican food. Do yourself a favor and go anywhere but here. read more
