    Was passing by and was craving some tacos and let me say im picky soooo this place really has it going when I took the first bite and closed my eyes to fully experience it. My wife and I go the taco combo, which i think is such a good balance and a good price. It comes with 3 tacos rice and beans and a drink for 15 dollars! All super delicious!!! Worth stopping by. I would recommend the asada for sure!! They have a self serve salsa station. The guac and red one mix isss heaven. There's lots of seating inside. Very authentic and the workers i encountered were super nice!

    A small salsa bar, but the upper left is a flavorful Molé!

    $2 Taco Tuesday! Second time there for tacos on a Tuesday and it was very very good as good as it was the first time. Definitely I prefer the Biria tacos, but the grilled chicken was great, especially with Molé sauce. I was quite filled up on four tacos which you could break down to say was like having 8 street tacos. It's pretty much counter service but they do bring your plates to you when you eat at this cafe-style restaurant. No fountain drinks but they do have a pretty good selection of bottles and canned soft drinks. Great place for kids. It's very clean so no problems with all the messes kids make.

    Loaded, rolled tacos, absolutely fantastic.

    I ordered five roll tacos, something I've eaten hundreds of times in my life. And these were the best role tacos I have ever had. No exaggeration, best rolled tacos ever. The staff was professional, the restaurant was clean, if I could give six stars I would.

    The carne asada chilaquiles were crispy, fresh ingredients, generous portions and very delicious. Highly recommend!

    Just moved down from Texas and was craving some tacos! This place hit the spot the service was amazing and fast! And the food was just a plus and this ain't no Glaze it was that good I had the Torta and it was delicious a little Dry I give it a 9.6 and my mom had the tacos and she enjoyed them her favorite was the steak tacos! The 3 rolled tacos are also amazing I enjoyed the chicken ones 10/10 my mom liked the steak ones but I give them a 8.5! Anyway check them out very yummy!

    This place is so good!!! I expect it to be a less authentic Mexican restaurant since it's next to a college campus but I was proved wrong!! The food was so delicious. My partner got the quesadilla and it was fairly priced. I got the chilaquiles and the salsa, toppings were a perfect match. The service was nice and the food came out fast! When it came to the environment it was tall tables or benches so it was a comfortable seating arrangement.

    So good got the Carne Asada burrito California style and it was huge over a handful easily. Can't wait to try the rest of the food.

    Amazing quick service. Clean kitchen and delicious food at a great price. We had a mulita, burrito, nachos and birria flautas. Everything was fresh, seasoned well and tasted great.

    This is a hidden gem! they have daily specials

    The food was so good!!! A hidden gem!!!Not sure how we missed it but, one thing for sure we found the place!!!! Kids loved the mulita and the torta.

    Bean & Cheese Burrito Tostada Bean & Cheese

    Nothing special. pretty good. Felt like the food could've used a bit more flavor, but overall enjoyable

    Birria burrito

    Friendly fast service place is very clean. Very nice place is only a few months old. The ratings are true place is great.

    We recently visited First Watch in Phoenix and had such a wonderful experience! Our server, Arely,…read morewas attentive, friendly, and absolutely fabulous. She made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down and checked on us just the right amount. We ordered two BEC sandwiches, which sadly are no longer on the menu, but wow, they were delicious! The bacon was cooked to perfection, crispy and flavorful, and everything tasted fresh and satisfying. Instead of the greens, we opted for the Million Dollar Potatoes and they were super yum! Such a tasty choice and the perfect addition to the meal. Great service, delicious food, and a lovely breakfast experience. Thank you, Arely, for taking such good care of us. We will definitely be back!

    Decided to go to First Watch since I was familiar with the franchise after going to one in Houston…read more This location is within a rather small parking lot which seems to be dedicated to First Watch, we were able to find a spot near the back of the lot but it was quite crowded when we arrived around 11am. The interior is pretty long with a large number of seating inside the building so we had no trouble getting seated right away by the hostess. We decided on food relatively quickly due to previous experience with the business, however, our waiter never came around to take our orders or even give us water at the table. We saw one girl with dyed hair who unassumingly could have been our waiter since she was in our section but only worked with one particular table and ran to the back after each time, but never addressed our table or came by. We eventually had to flag a different waiter down who was able to help us place the order and service us for the rest of our visit, she also informed us that this other "Waiter" was supposed to help us but she wasn't sure why she never made an attempt to do so after having us wait 20 mins and other tables were being serviced. We ordered Flordian French Toast and Elote Breakfast Burrito (plus a couple sides and drink) which were both really good, and filling. Prices weren't too bad for what we ordered and was able to take our mind off of the rather long wait to get helped. Not sure if we'll come back to this particular location again, but it was nice trying the restaurant out another time.

    I was looking for a good staycation while also earning American Airlines AAdvantage miles and…read moreloyalty points to maintain my status for another year. I found a great AAdvantage Hotel deal at the Hilton Phoenix Tapatio Cliffs Resort and booked it. While it was a great success of a visit in terms of AAdvantage miles and loyalty points, my actual experience at the hotel itself was less to be desired due to the customer service and a big snafu on their part. I also have Hilton Gold status, though as I booked the hotel through a third party site (AAdvantage Hotels), I could see the stay and the stay history in my Hilton app, but I did not receive any benefits for staying there, which was fine as I didn't expect any anyone. I arrived in person to check in and already reserved and prepaid for a King 1 Bedroom Standard Suite, which had a nice view and reasonably spacious room (but not too much larger than a regular room at another hotel). The room was certainly not upgraded though there was parking available right in front of the entrance. I did not receive anything else at check-in nor did it appear that I'd get my regularly complimentary water. I did pay the daily resort charge which includes high speed internet access, access to the Falls Water Village, an hour at the tennis/pickleball court, an hour at the afternoon golf practice facility, two hours for a mountain bike rental, 20% off seasonal spa services, and 15% off select golf apparel. While I didn't use it, I had easy view and access to the Falls Water Village where you could lounge and play all day on their sun-marked terrace where you could find free-form pools, hot tubs, and cabanas. They even have a 138-foot enclosed water slide. When I checked out, I was told that a bill would be sent to me shortly since I did it on the app early, and when I received the bill, there was a charge for my room at the restaurant at the top of the hill called A Different Point of View. The catch is that I never went to eat there during my stay (or at any onsite restaurant since I live in the area and had my meals offsite). I reached out to the hotel who insisted that I did go there to eat. I promised them I didn't eat anywhere onsite and that they need to look at the receipt and see if it actually has my room number. They confirmed it did and that this meant I ate there. I told them to find my name on it and let me know if it was on there. After several more back and forth conversations, they confirmed it wasn't me and would remove the charge. They then mistakenly charged me double. Then they removed one charge, but it took more than a week before they removed the other charge. By the end of the exchanges, it felt like they were blaming me for their own mistake. While the resort is aged and rather pleasant, there certainly are training issues regarding the customer service offered at this property. I do not plan on staying here again in the future.

    An absolutely gorgeous location. If only the food and rooms matched the top notch view…read more Having driven past here a number of times, I was excited to finally get a chance to stay. Nestled (as the name indicates) on the top of Tapatio cliffs, you get a stunning view no matter where you are on the property. And as I like to always begin with the positives, I can't commend the staff enough. They were friendly and hard working across the board. I also greatly enjoyed the main pool area, which had waterfalls, a water slide, and food and drinks that can be ordered right to your seat as you soak in some sun. There are multiple other standard pools throughout the resort that you can enjoy if you want to avoid the crowds and kids at the main one. Alas, the room and food were not up to snuff (especially given the prices). The bathroom had a very small tub with staining around the drain, spots on the walls, and the toilet was prone to getting stuck so that the water would run until you lifted the top lid and readjusted the stopper (not exactly what I want to do on vacation!). I also thought it was funny that a hotel of this quality used Angel Soft toilet paper (I know because they kept a spare roll in its wrapper in the room). The housekeeping wasn't great either. I had to contact the front desk to get them to replace out the trash (which wouldn't normally have mattered except they were TINY cans. One room service order filled the whole can). We somehow ran out of tissues (which you'd think housekeeping would check), and our towels were never re-stocked or replaced (and at least one was frayed and had holes in it). I'm not really a stickler for these sorts of things, but it was all surprising given the locale and price. I did report some of these things to the front desk, and to be fair, there wasn't much they could do to fix them. The food was also very mediocre. I had a grilled BBQ chicken sandwich delivered to the room. I asked for cheese on the side (explaining I don't like it melted) and they simply put the sandwich on top of the cheese, meaning the cheese melted to the container LOL! The sandwich was OK but was over-slathered in BBQ so that it made the bun mushy and subsumed any other flavor. The side salad greens were too thick for my liking and had the opposite problem of not enough dressing. I would visit again, perhaps for a day, to enjoy the views and if possible, day pass the pool. But I'm not so sure I'd stay there
