    Main dining room, ambiance.

    What a great surprise in the middle of Oracle Rd! Really great red salsa, avocado salsa is always a welcomed surprise and free chips that comes with bean dip! All was really good, but the star of the show was the Birria pozolè! So great! And it came with fresh, hot, flour (or corn) tortillas. The posolè had the perfect salt level, with tender, tender, hominy and lean, savory shredded beef. Not hot, but spiced perfect for a guerö (white guy) like me. Sweet server was very kind and guided me through the menu. There's a salsa bar, too. Low key atmosphere, but shiny clean. If you go here, your family will thank you. You will be a hero to your compadres, bringing them here...you will look like a savvy local. You will be a legend to those that know you. People from out of town will prolly write you about the time you all went to Salsa Verde. Oh, they also have a kids menu and the place looks to be very kid friendly. They also have beer. And a breakfast menu with Birriaquiles--I'll be there tomorrow for that. And the next day.

    3 tiny tiny carnitas street tacos $11.55.

    I will never go back. Taco Tuesday is supposed to be a day where you get a deal on tacos. That is not this place. I bought 9 street tacos for a grand total of $40.92. These things are barely enough for a kids meal. It is typical tactic, charge more and give you less. Save your money chose another restaurant that gives you more bang for your buck.

    Grilled chicken burrito with rice filling. Minimal cheese inside with the filling.

    Looking at this place from the outside you would think it is a fast food Mexican restaurant similar to Filbertos. However, this place is anything but. The ambiance inside is very quiet and quaint and they have a full sit down service. It's nothing like a fast food place at all! The service is very friendly and prompt. They always come by to check on you. The stand out however is the food! So good and prices are reasonable for what you get. They serve complimentary chips with bean dip and there is a salsa bar where you can get whatever salsas you want. For main meals I got a grilled chicken burrito with rice filling and my husband got the 3 small chimichangas enchilada style with shredded beef inside. Everything was so delicious. We will definitely be back!

    We finally found a place on this side of town that serves a good Mexican breakfast! We happened upon this place by chance while I was waiting for new tires to be put on my truck at a nearby tire shop. It's bright and clean inside and the server was very friendly and helpful. Lots of options to choose from. My BF got the breakfast tacos with chorizo. It came with beans and breakfast potatoes that are nice sized chucks cooked with peppers and onions. I chose the build your own plate which lets you pick 4 options. I selected the cheese enchilada, 2 eggs, beans and corn & green chili tamale. The tamale was my favorite. Nice sweet masa with a green chili that provided a good flavor without too much heat which is how I like it for breakfast. The beans could have used a little more salt but that's just my preference. I really hope this place succeeds because they seem to take a lot of pride in their food.

    This Vegetarian omelette was perfect in every way!

    This location is decent with a sit down dine in experience. I had the tamales plate and it was good. The service was acceptable.

    Breakfast burrito with chorizo

    Tried this place on a whim and glad we did! Greeted as soon as we walked in the door, served chips with beans (delicious as they put chorizo in them!) upon sitting down. We ordered the Huevos Divorciados and the breakfast burrito with chorizo. Both were wonderful. Our server was delightful and very friendly, restaurant was clean, as were the restrooms. Definitely recommend!

    Inside is spacious. Very clean including the bathroom.

    Tried Salsa Verde today on Oracle and they had me at Chips and a Bean Dip. They have a salsa bar as well. Fantastic service and our food was YUM!! The best rajas I've had in Tucson so far! Prices are right on pointl. It was nice inside. Spacious and clean. Their menu has a little bit of everything. Don't go there hungry, they have displays with pictures of their food. You'll want EVERYTHING!!

Which, you know, is kind of the whole point of a restaurant. The atmosphere was great, a little on the nose, but great none the less. It feels like a Mexican dinner or at least what I imagined a dinner in Mexico would look like. The staff where beyond amazing, especially the woman who made our complementary salsa right at the table. And the salsa was yummy but sadly that's the only part of the meal that I can say that about. The thing is, nothing was truly bad, but just about everything was incredibly bland. You'd have expected someone who puts raisins in potato salad to have served it, not an authentic Mexican restaurant. Though the positive is the lack of seasoning is really the only major problem. The food did not have any weird taste, it wasn't dry, the presentation was fine. It simply needs to be seasoned and this place goes to a solid 4/5 rather than a three.

Spacious patio area, with cool lights, umbrellas, and many tables. If you have a choice and it isn't too hot, sit outside. The food is stellar! I got their ranch style flat enchilada, which is more or less a thick masa topped with enchilada flavors and spices. So yummy. (And it's vegetarian too!) The rest of the table (3 more) ordered the green chicken enchiladas. They didn't need to rave about it: their plates were completely clean at the end of the meal! We ordered Tamarindo and Horchata drinks between us, and frankly, the Tamarindo is some of the best I've ever had anywhere. Service can be a little slow, especially if they're busy. But we didn't really mind. It was a nice experience.

Their back patio looks super cute for warmer nights and the food was great. Little bit of a wait but the friendly servers got us sat as soon as possible at 7pm Saturday. Salsa and chips were tasty, the carne asada was excellent. The corn tortillas are thick and perfectly charred. The green enchiladas were good too. The sauce was thicker than usual, but that's probably the Native fusion instead of being just Mexican enchiladas. So glad we stopped in, we ate every bite. Forgot to take a picture until I was half through!

Honestly, I wish I could give Yaquesita a little more, maybe half a star more, because this place definitely has potential. Their flavors are good, but compared to similar restaurants the menu feels a bit overpriced. For a party of three we ended up paying around $100, which felt like a bit much for what we got. The restaurant itself is pretty small with only about 3-4 tables inside, but the patio is a decent size and has a cute vibe. It's actually a nice option on cooler days if you don't mind sitting outside. Some items were better than others. The wet-style burrito was delicious and definitely a highlight. The quesabirrias were good, however the birria felt more like fancier shredded beef. It was missing that rich, spicy, slightly acidic, earthy flavor that usually sets birria apart from barbacoa or traditional shredded beef dishes. The bowl was just okay and had lots of lettuce. It felt more like a salad with a bit of meat, rice, and beans. Honestly, Chipotle does bowls better, and that says a lot considering the price. The nachos were good, but I've had better. Seis Kitchen has amazing nachos to share. That said, it's definitely a place I'd come back to mainly out of convenience, not because one particular item on the menu won my heart. I really do hope they continue refining the menu because the flavors are there and this place could easily become a standout spot. Personally I just think at the total price of my ticket other restaurants should not even have room in my mind during my meal. If you're in the area and looking for a safe bet where everyone will probably find something they like, it's worth giving them a try.
