The worker told me to "shut the f*** up" not professional, even though the Sonoran hot dogs are good, I DO NOT recommend.

Loud music where you can't hear anything and very rude service. Save your time and money and head to Bocas down the street.

Been years since I've been here, and now I'm kicking myself for waiting so long!…read more Mi Nidito is a Tucson legend, famous for the celebrity photos of notable celebrities who have visited through the years and of course for the food that brought them here. It's colorful, and welcoming. The service was quick and friendly. Of course the chips and homemade salsa were on the table as we sat down. Our waitress was happy to take our order and she was able to make helpful suggestions about the menu. I had the Burro Deluxe and I was overwhelmed by the size of it. The burro was covered in cheese sauce and it was literally bigger than my shoes! The photo doesn't do it justice. I managed to eat 1/3 of it and the waitstaff graciously provided to go boxes to allow me to eat it for the rest of the week!!! It was great fun looking at the celebrity photos and watching all the massive food plates being delivered. Truly a great experience and glad I returned to Mi Nidito! I will be back soon.

Food start with chips that were so bad I maybe ate 4 of them total. (Out of a bag?) The #3 combo…read morewas ok but nothing to slap yo gramma about. They only serve red sauce not really salsa at the table. Asked for some green sauce and was offered whatever they put on the green enchiladas. No thanks! Service was great all around. Ambiance is standard Tucson Mexican restaurant decor. Yelp on!

Service is always good. Food is always fantastic. Ambience is pretty good, but oh golly! Noisy! I…read morecould barely hear the music playing through the speakers - one reason we try to sit outside, but it was a record-wind day in Tucson yesterday . . . OTOH, the waiter had an "outdoor" voice! My favorite foods there: *Original "Charro Style" Tacos (like my Mexican friends' moms made them) *Seafood Enchiladas - con Rajas en Crema, a delicious white sauce *Green Corn Tamal - NOT your everyday tamal, but a finely ground masa, and great cheese and chiles; it was so fresh I asked if they were made to order So, to get two out of the three of these, order the Numero Cuatro Combinacion - with the Seafood Enchilada, a Shrimp Taco, and a Green Corn Tamal Oh, and they take reservations for two online - very accommodating. (Now if they could do a little acoustical treatment in the ceiling . . . )

Great food, ambiance and service. We love this place. Found out this is the birthplace of the…read morechimichanga, had to try it out. Ian is our server, he's very knowledgeable of the menu. They have people walking around just refilling chips and salsa. You can't go wrong. One person mentioned the salsa was spicy ketchup. Couldn't be further from the truth. It is a bare bones salsa but tastes nothing like ketchup. We got the chimichanga app. Very tasty. We shared some chicken tortilla soup and an air dried beef platter. The beef was interesting. It's the only place in the US that is allowed to do this. Very busy place! But they take great care of their customers.
