Barbaqoa & Asada tacos
Vicky C.

I love Taco boys for their original tacos! My tacos were really good, I got carne asada and barbaqoa. The barbaqoa are juicy tender and flavorful. They are street tacos so they are small but it comes with double tortillas and a lot of meat so you could make two tacos out of one. The margarita from the bar was just ok. I sat outside and they had music playing and the misters going.

Asada Tacos

Taco Boys Mill Ave Street taco size, freshly made selected meat slapped on a warm tortilla, fresh and yummy. Their tacos are very good, quick and reasonable. Personally, I always go for the Asada Taco, I have tried others but the Asada is a big winner, so why go to something less desirable. Cheese Quesidilla is also a good compliment to the tacos and add to more good eating. Good, fast, reasonable tacos, you had me at carna asada

Came here for lunch, pretty busy and fast service. I like the salsa bar,, that's a plus. Pretty simple menu, ordered asada, pastor, cabeza, barnacoa tacos. Tacos had pretty good amount of meat but I was little annoyed to see that asada was $1.96 more.. WTH Love the salsa bar so I can load them up to my liking. I did taste the meat by itself before I ate them loaded. Cabeza was pretty good, pastor was very disappointing, had that cooked meat with some sprinkle of seasoning. Barbacoa was probably the tastiest but I got a big chunk of fat in my bite.. I love fatty meat so i didnt have issues but I can see someone not loving fatty part of the meat taking a bite. Asada probably was my least favorite. Lack of flavor and definitely not worth over $5. Nice atmosphere with music and friendly staff but over all it was not for me specially the price of that darn carne asada taco. Don't plan on coming back.

Food and service top tier! It's Cinco & taco Tuesday !! This place has a younger staff but very attentive. My girls decided to grab some tacos and strawberry margaritas! The whole place was lively whether you order from the bar or inside you vent go wrong! People watching on the patio was the perfect spot for us!

Friendly service and great food! The only two things that weren't to "my liking" were that they put our 2 orders of tacos on the same plate instead of separate (was with a coworker) and the music was soooo loud next to the area to wait to get your food. I am never one to complain about the loudness of music but I would suggest moving the speaker to a different location or higher up. Tbe food was delicious and had a great variety of toppings.

I love taco boys! Always delicious, fresh and affordable tacos! I only took a star off because the barbacoa is a little too greasy for my liking, and the bartenders aren't usually all that attentive. Other than that, this place is my go-to!

Dinner for my family of three cost us $45.

Pollo, pastor, and asada tacos
Kat V.

Great food and fast service. The drink size is huge! I got delicious horchata but could not finish it. Chicken is juicy delicious. Asada and pastor are also good. Many varieties of salad to choose from. There is one real spicy salsa. Lots of TVs to watch sport games. The seats, mostly are high tables or bar style, are more for a small party. The restaurant is a bit hot on the summer day. I love the sinks out in the front to wash my hands (before and) after enjoying the delicious tacos.

Beef taco

The food DELICIOUS, the service friendly and fast the ambience festive! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PLACE! The meat was NOT skimpy on the Birria Taco! Flavorful tender meat serve with consumé that I finished with my spoon. If you're ever in Tempe, COME HERE!!!! You will not be disappointed!

I had seen the crowds of people at the Taco Boys at Roosevelt Row, so I was glad to see that there was a new location on Mill Avenue. We went for lunch on a Friday, and it was very busy. It was packed with ASU students, as well as just the general public. It is all counter service, and they have a salsa bar. There is a bar as well, but it was not open when we were there - - maybe somebody would have gone over there to serve a drink had anyone ordered one. There's also patio seating outside, which is a good thing for people watching on Mill avenue. We ordered the Platos, one chicken and one carne asada, and it was plenty of food. It comes with a stack of delicious tortillas to make tacos with along with beans. On the day we were there the beans were very very soft, almost like liquid. I did not like them. It may have just been that bad so I'm not sure if it's always like that. We will definitely go back. The platos were very good value and we would order them again.

We love this place the tacos are delicious, the salsas and toppings are abundant, and our dog was welcomed with open arms (and even treats) Great ambiance and the staff had a great vibe

Everything about this place is fine but for some reason, my burrito felt like I was chewing on sand.

I'm huge on customer service and I had amazing customer service. My server Mario was attentive and checked on me often. Another major thing I want to mention is the bathrooms are every clean. This is for the men's so I can't speak on the women's bathroom but I'm sure it's just as clean. So now on to the food. When you are seated get chips and salsa. Chips are nice and warm. Salsa. Was delicious and flavorful. For my meal I ordered the shrimp agua chile and holy shit...it's fresh and made to order, so keep in mind that it will take a bit for it to come out. For drinks I had a Corona Michelada and a house margarita. I'm quite picky with my micheladas and I was extremely satisfied. So satisfied that I ordered another. The shrimp agua chile is very flavorful. I added Avacado which was an up charge...no big deal. The sauce that the agua chile comes in was packed with flavor and because it's made to order...I was able to ask for it to be made not too spicy so it had just the right kick. Overall Anayas fresh Mexican Restaurant is EXCELLENT. I have family coming in to town soon and I'm definitely going to be making reservations. I will most certainly be coming back and definitely recommend coming here.

I love breakfast, especially Mexican breakfasts and I love enchiladas. Anaya's has scrambled egg and spinach enchiladas with the most delectable enchilada sauce I've Ever had. If there is extra I'll mix the sauce in with the rice to get every bit of it. Have to restrain myself from coming in daily. Sometimes I think I've even dreamed about this meal. Had the Mango Margarita that was super large and came in a glass made in Mexico that looked like a giant martini glass. It was delicious. I am also uplifted by the colorful charm of the decor and art. Absolutely in love with the carved chairs and booth backs. It makes me feel I'm back in parts of Mexico (hope it never changes). One day I'll come for dinner after looking at all the yummy photos taken by others.

I don't understand the overall 4-star average. Is it an upscale place? No, not really, but in…read moreserving affordable, tasty, even textured Mexican food, it's no wonder the booths were packed in a Sunday night here. My family went fully vegetarian, with me taking the house specialty mushroom quesadilla with corn tortilla. Freaking delicious. Near perfect salt level, with cheese as a textural element adding gooeyness to the grilled onions and crisped tortilla. The tortilla melds in the mouth with the tender mushrooms for a perfect bite; the filling even imparts complementary flavor into the tortilla. The drinks here are only non-alcoholic, but yummy. I'd have the sour, long house marg every week. Worth a drive into otherwise boring Tempe!

The chips and salsa came out promptly--the chips were warm and the salsa was really tasty. My husband ordered a torta, I had a quesadilla, and my son got the kids' carne asada plate. Everything was good! I especially liked that the quesadilla wasn't overloaded with cheese and came with beans as well. My son's carne asada plate was also a generous portion for a kids' meal, and my husband really enjoyed his torta. My only complaint is the price of the fountain drinks--they were $6 each, which felt pretty steep. Other than that, we had a nice dinner and would definitely consider coming back.

The service was absolutely wonderful and the margaritas and food were fantastic! Flavorful and delicious dishes. I had the chicken stuffed with goat cheese and huitlacoche, a savory and mushroomy 'corn' . It was absolutely fabulous! After dinner they allowed us to finish our drinks on the beautifully furnished patio. I've been here multiple times before and it never disappoints. Great service, wonderful flavorful food and drinks, and great atmosphere, even if a little loud sometimes, haha. Can't wait to come back!

The parking lot outside was parking so we thought we may have to wait, but inside was not busy yet and we were seated immediately. I ordered the smoked chicken enchilada as I saw it was a Yelp favorite and it was delicious. I ended up taking half of it home since we all filled up on chips and salsa before our meal. This restaurant is decorated so cutely. I love how there is a Baja influence with all the surf boards but also southwest appeal. There is plenty of seating and tables for big groups. Even with other people yapping around us, the noise level was perfect to enjoy company. 10/10 would recommend.
