This review is just for the burrito because that's all I've had…read more The tortilla is top-notch. Honestly, it's probably the best burrito tortilla I've had from any Mexican spot in Arizona. The problem is the meat. The meat is just average. If they upgraded the meat, this might be the best burrito in Arizona. That's how good the tortilla is. But because the meat doesn't match the tortilla, it ends up being just a really solid burrito instead of an amazing one. I haven't tried anything else on the menu, so I can't speak on the rest of the food. But if we're talking burritos... Best tortilla I've had. Average meat. Good overall, but it leaves you thinking about what it could've been.

There are regulars that come in and seem to have a good rapport with the staff and they love the food. It was a bit of a rush time and there was only one bartender so service was a bit slow. We did get some chips and salsa as we waited. Good chips, airy and crispy. The salsa was OK. I'm personally just not a fan of roasted salsa. Their beer was crisp and thoroughly cold which was refreshing. I tried the amor de mango and it was tasty. I can't remember my first drink either. It was a Paloma or a margarita, but i didn't enjoy as much, which is why I changed my next drink. The chimi trio was very tasty and full of flavor, one bean one chicken one beef, all good. Then we got the carnitas cheese crisp which was interesting and had good flavor. I would order both again. Service was pretty good. Like I said, the bartender was busy working by himself and when one of his coworkers noticed, we didn't have any more water then she would come by and help so that was appreciated. It s good date spot, or catching up with a friend or just grabbing a bite to eat and drink for yourself. I look forward to coming back and trying entrees. My only hope is that during the hot bright times they lower the shades and get more shades. Not only to reduce the sun coming in but also reduce the glare on the tv that way all spots at the bar are good spots.

Our server was a lady that makes the food. I'm guessing one of the owners. She was not a very good server. She did not check on us much. We waited a long time to get our check. Hubby didn't receive the tamale. When hubby told her about the tamale she said they were out of tamales & she forgot to tell him. That's because she never came back to the table. She said she needed to make more of them. They were much busier than the last time we were here. Hubby loved his food. This is his favorite Mex restaurant. I forgot to take any pictures until we had already eaten half our food. I did get a picture of a robot that goes to tables to deliver food with multiple plates & then goes back to the kitchen.

The crispy fish tacos were an 8.5/10 for me, really really great but not the best I ever had, for my fiance they were a 10/10 mind you he hasn't had crispy fish tacos before. We tried the quesadillas and we had half of them as carnitas and half of them as chicken. I usually love carnitas but here at this restaurant the chicken was profoundly better. The chicken was soft and delicious and flavorful. We got it with extra cheese which I highly recommend. 8:10 really good. The guacamole was good but nothing to die for. But the salsa, my god the green salsa and the habanero and the house salsa they were all just extraordinarily delicious. We had the prickly pear margarita and prickly pear lemonade, both were great. I felt like the lemonade was a tad too sweet so I didn't finish but the flavor was amazing The waitress was so nice to us, we loved the service and the ambiance.

The quality really stands out--especially the homemade tortillas, which take everything to the next level. The al pastor and carne asada are both incredible, packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. I also love that the al pastor is cooked authentically on a spit, which really adds to the flavor and experience. There's also a great variety of options on the menu, so there's something for everyone. Service is consistently quick, even when it's busy, which makes it a great spot whether you're grabbing a quick meal or sitting down to enjoy your food. Their Taco Tuesday deal is also a huge win--great value without sacrificing quality, and it keeps us coming back regularly. And the salsa deserves its own shoutout--absolutely incredible! It's packed with flavor and honestly good enough that you could enjoy it on its own. It really takes everything to the next level. If you're looking for authentic-style tacos with great flavor, fresh ingredients, fast service, and awesome specials, Tacos Tijuana is a must-visit. Easily one of my top spots in the area!

(Not an over exaggeration) Service: desperate Ambience: they don't know the meaning of the word. (: continue reading for an HONEST unbiased review. Please. I urge you. When I first came in (about 2 weeks ago) the man behind the counter was preoccupied (a given, at any restaurant) I patiently waited at the counter to be greeted. Then came the warming welcome of "what do you want" - I thought, "oh he's very busy, let's cut the bs and just order really quick" so I did. Sat down, enjoyed my food while being stared at, by everyone in there, why? To TRY and strike intimidation. Why? They're blatantly racist against white people and it's very sad. Genuinely, I just wanted to enjoy my meal while supporting a small business in this community. Fast forward, To Today. I was craving their chimichangas. So I found my way back through their door. Once more. (Should've just sat in hunger honestly) As I opened- said door, I was "basically" greeted, by the very same cook (who was caught staring at me the first time I was in there -) who did not once even LOOK in my direction, but instead, gave a very UGLY facial expression (: indicating, to me at least, that she ISNT grateful for this opportunity to make more $$$ by simply giving some kindness. At least that's how I took it, I may be wrong. Who knows? (: I quickly moved past the uncomfortability I was absolutely experiencing & moved to the front of the line once more, (mind you. It's always been empty from what I've seen) just to be completely dismissed by a distraction from a "new order coming in" on the tablet behind her. Hilarious. Call me entitled, but I thought "first come first serve" was a motto that EVERY BUSINESS honored & respected? Don't waste your money here seriously. As she was facing me, about to say ANYTHING, she quickly got distracted by the sound of the "ping" and used that excuse to escape from the uncomfy feeling, in which SHE imposed on me. As I was taken back by the lack of attention, (don't worry. I'm not complaining. ...... Actually I am) someone came BUSTING through the door, needless to say he looked different than I, so he CLEARLY got the attention first. Hey. No biggie. I'm pretty secure with myself (; .... She then helped that gentleman out with a huge smile and greetings. I'm grateful someone got that out of her. Looked like she needed it. I then placed my order, in high hopes that I could just eat in peace and eat something I thought was good? Well. This time, it took longer for her to make. I waited patiently while preparing my little table and getting excited to eat this again. Little did I know, she made it SPICY AS HEEEECCCCKKKKKKK. And me? Get offended by spice ? Unheard of. That's exactly when I knew that I should come on here and tell people. I had to stop on the way home to keep myself from throwing up. My stomach was tossing and turning. Still is.
