    breakfast burrito
    Rong R.

    It was a lovely small taco shop next to the chase field. We went there right when they opened in the morning. I ordered the breakfast burrito with chorizo, which was pretty flavorful. Their salsa at the sauce bar went so well with the burrito too!

    Carne Asada

Hands down best tacos ever.. and the toppings bar was great with pico, pickled onion and such.. go see this dude I promise you won't be disappointed!!

    Tacos and caramello
    Ryan D.

    Great little stop for lunch. Had two delicious asada tacos on corn tortillas. Partner had a caramelo that she enjoyed as well. Along with a Mexican Coke. There is a free salsa bar that had a variety of salsas, an avocado salsa, cabbage, red onions, limes, and peppers. My partner liked the red salsa best, but I was partial to the roasted pepper one that's more brownish and chunky. We both loved the avocado salsa; despite her allergies, my partner gave it a try. There is very limited indoor seating which is part of why I gave only four stars -- the other part being that the menu is limited and there was no cilantro. HOWEVER, what they do have and what we had was delicious. I'd give 4.5 stars if possible. The taste was unmatched. I've lived in AZ my whole life and had tacos across the state; these take the cake. Will be back. The man behind the register was very kind and gave personal opinions on salsa when asked. The ambiance is nice and gives an authentic taco shop experience with the smoky scent of meats cooking and music in Spanish. The space was decently clean and the salsa bar seemed fresh and at the correct temperatures. This is located along 7th street in the Warehouse District. We walked comfortably from a nearby parking lot, midday Saturday. The place did not have other patrons except for us while we were there, but they have plaques of awards won, and the food spoke for itself. Give it a try next time you're looking for some great tacos!

    The tacos were great! We tried one of each kind chicken, carne, and el pastor. There are five amazing sauces to mix and match with the tacos that really made the meal. Excellent!

    Burrito (pastore)
    Kristen E.

    Park in the little lot next door. Order from the short menu on the wall: it's tacos and burritos, friends, no chips and salsa or guac. They do have Jarritos and a couple of fountain drinks though. There's a single, dark, all-gender but not handicapped-accessible restroom (no grab bars, for instance). Top your tacos from the small salad bar. (Tacos, plural, because who eats only one?) A few tables inside and a few outside. The burrito is normal sized, but I was kind of hungry and wish I had ordered the Sonoran with beans. Al pastore was really good.

    OMG!!!!!! 100% amazing!!! Best place I have been and cheapest meal during our Arizona vacation! We found them from the Moon Baseball Road trip book and it did not disappoint!! We order at least one item from the whole menu. Everything was amazing!!!! We enjoyed the pastor meat the most but also got the steak for several dishes. The ladies behind the counter was super sweet. They helped us order, let me change my meat last minute, and even made our little ones meal even better by adding cheese!!!

    I drive by this place everyday on my way to school and have been dying to try it! We finally stopped in after class one day. They're a cute family owned business kind of on the industrial street of 7th. There's not much else around but they have indoor and outdoor seating. The inside was smaller than I expected. They have a very small menu with street tacos (flour or corn tortillas), burritos, breakfast burritos, and one other thing on the hard shell (do not remember the name) tortas I believe. My friend and I got a burrito and two tacos and then shared. I had both the chicken and beef tacos (the only other meat option is pork). The chicken tacos were better in my opinion. They also only come with the large tortilla and the meat. They have a little bar on the side that has pico, lettuce, multiple salsas and jalapeños. I love that you can put everything on yourself! The burrito we got chicken in and it also has, cheese, beans, and rice. It was super good, a nice size not too big. I will say I got like two bites of sketchy chicken (the cartilage) that I did not enjoy hence the 4 stars. The salsa options are amazing. Definitely will come back!

    Vampiros
    Jerry L.

    I was working downtown and a coworker told me about this place and said it was good. I ordered 3 vampiros which is a tostada with beans, cheese melted with carne asada on top. I liked the flavor of the whole but the carne asada was a little bland. But if you spend $10-$15 and your are still hungry afterwards that's a problem. And I was hungry still. The kitchen seems fairly clean. I will comeback and try it again!!!

    Front entrance...outdoor seating if the inside is crowded.

    On our way to the Phoenix airport we stopped to have a quick bite at a local taco shop. It's very intimate, minimal indoor seating but outside seating available. A handful of options, bottled drinks and a few traditional options. Parking is minimal...2 parking lots..one on each side of the shop. After you receive your order there is a toppings bar stocked with fresh toppings and an array of sauces/salsas. It definitely hit the spot.

    Today I stopped in here on the way to a community building event in south Phoenix. I love this place. When I am in this area I eat here. The vampires are TDF and the meat is good and grilled over coal. The tacos come just meat and tortilla. It's up to you to decorate them at the salsa bar. I will continue to eat here when I'm in the area. It's small. Hip. Local. Quality. Happy. Gracias a Los dueños!

    Caramelos (small quesadilla) w/asada Tacos one chicken one pastor
    Aaron W.

    Delicious tacos reminiscent of Sonora. Enjoyed the chicken, pastor, tacos and a asada caramello. Simple salsa bar that lets the delicious flavors of each meat be the real highlight. Some things in life shouldn't be deconstructed or overthought. Simple sometimes is best and this place takes care of it.

    Yeah...this place is AMAZING. I was visiting from out of town and a local friend recommended this place as his favorite taco spot in all of Phoenix. This little hole in the wall is pumping out amazing food! Menu is on a chalkboard: tacos, vampiros, carmelos, and burros. With each, you pick your meat: asada, chicken, or pastor. The asada is delicious flank steak, chicken had crazy good flavor and juiciness, and the pastor is pork with a kick! I recommend trying out at least one of each: the price is right. The vampiros is a tostada so is like an open faced hard shell taco. The Carmelos is like a quesadilla. I had to get a second Carmelo -- it was that good! They have a buffet table where you dress your own with toppings--salsas, radishes, lime, and so much more. A MIST TRY!

    Came here to rendezvous with an old flame and it was the perfect location for finding some trouble…read more Bouncer at the entrance was super nice. I told him I parked in a spot that didnt exactly look like a spot but was big enough and seemed like it would work. He grinned and said as long as you don't park overnight, everything will be fine. Bar is inviting and this place is definitely divey, I was about to sit down at the bar when approached on the other side, caught off guard, and there he was, handsome and hunky just as I had remembered him years ago. Place was packed on a Monday night and by 11pm, more people showed up. Reminded me so much of NYC. We sat down at the bar and bartender was prompt and helpful. I ordered a mezcal margarita and he had a wheat style draft beer. Conversation locked in sync just as we had been years ago, drinks went by quick and before you know it, it was time for round 2. He had a Jameson on the rocks and I went with a smoky mezcal on the rocks. He was hungry and ordered a chopped cheese, reminiscent of NYC but no idea if it was good, but he polished it off quick. Jukebox was playing and we both weren't exactly excited by the music, but sometimes good conversation and staring into the eyes of your former special someone drowned it all out. Needless to say, I will remember this place for a long time to come. We headed out into the warm Phoenix night, clear, dark and while not drunk from the drinks, I was intensely buzzing from what suprises would unfold, it always ends in trouble, especially with this all too dangerous hunky beefcake. Perfect date spot with someone that can appreciate dives. I'll remember you Gracie's, stay cool and fun.

    If you're a Chick-fil-A fan at Chase Stadium, brace yourself for a limited menu and a long wait…read more The fries are available, but after waiting in line for 30 minutes, you might miss an entire inning just to get them. And if you have a dairy allergy, this location is especially disappointing--no grilled items and not the safe haven that other Chick-fil-A spots typically offer. The usual charm is there, but the lack of variety and allergy-friendly options, combined with the long wait, makes it hard to justify the stop. You're better off grabbing your Chick-fil-A fix before the game or finding another option inside the stadium.

    "Closed on Sunday's.. you're my Chick-fil-A" -Kanye West…read more Finally we have a location inside the Chase Field stadium! The home of the Arizona Diamondbacks! It's a rather large location which has all of the usual offerings. Waffle fries are highly recommended as well as my personal favorite: the Spicy Deluxe Chicken Sandwich. WITH Spicy Pepper Jack cheese. This is a must! Although this location is also closed on Sunday's, if you are here during any other day of the week (Monday - Saturday) I highly suggest stopping by. The chase field is always being updated with the center full and abundant food options and also selections for drink beverages. The Wetzel Pretzel was another highly sought after food choice. In comparison, I definitely felt the chick-fil-a Combo was much more fulfilling and tasty! Ethically delicious! That is a new phrase I just came up with. Anyways, thanks for reading. Eat some Chick'N!
