    Delicious food! Tortillas great, meat amazing. Cute little humble space. The service was lovely and warm. A great little neighborhood spot. Loved it!

    Veronica C.

    Enjoyed the food and service. Clean restaurant, and nice decor. First time there, will go again. Oh and their salsa were very good.

    Finally found authentic tacos in the city. We got the asada tacos and the panpachos and it was so good, a lot of people were here for lunch. Parking is limited but there is parking in a lot across the street. The people were very friendly and the food came out fast. I will definitely be back for these tacos

    This is still the best place for tacos in the Guadalupe area, amazing food every time!! I have always only ordered take out, but this is the real deal for authentic Mexican food.

    The asada and tripa I tasted were good and rich in flavor. The cabeza meat was a bit lacking in flavor for my taste. The asada was definitely my favorite. The one thing that was not to my liking was the menudo; I love menudo, and this one just wasn't it for me. Parrilla Los Picos is still the best for menudo hands down. The place is of decent size, and the music is at a good level where you can easily hold a conversation. The service was good. I feel I've always been treated well whenever I've come in, whether dining in or ordering takeout.

    There were two young gentlemen that served me and my family. Both were very kind and attentive. We ordered a few different tacos plus a few quesabirras with the consome. The consome was so delicious that my family was pouring some on their tacos. I was happy that could just drink it too. Some consome's are too sour but this one was perfect. I appreciate that the restaurant was clean and played Spanish music. We'll be back.

    Outstanding food. Immense flavor. Hole-in-the-wall vibes. So good that we had to order more! Highly recommend the taco mexicano or birria anything! If you want a great meal, this is the spot!

    This is the spot! Welcomed at the door you have the option to have order take out or have a seat to order dine in. We ordered a torta, birria tacos, asada tacos, and the birria ramen. Everything was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. The meat was tender, the tortillas were fresh, and the birria ramen was amazing. They have 3 different homemade fresh salsas to choose from (red,green,guacamole) Even their homemade agua frescas were refreshing and so good! (Horchata, Jamaica, and lemonade) If that's not your thing they also have a fountain drinks. If you order dine in, you go to the front once done eating to pay for the food. Highly recommend this place!

    We were I. The area and had this spot saved so we decided to check it out! The lady working the front was kind and spoke English. Our food also came out fast and was great! We got a few different tacos but only managed to get a pic of two of them. We got their most popular Birria taco, second popular Mexicano (the asada that's in the photo), also a pastor, asada, manta and gobenador. We both agreed that we would come back for the birria only. Giving this spot a four only because the meat was pretty heavy so it didn't settle well for us.

    Not bad, the food was okay, the staff was outstanding. I did go back for another round on the birria taco.

    Tasty cabeza burrito with jamaica to drink
    Jason J.

    This seems like a bit of a dive restaurant, but it is clean and comfortable. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Some are bilingual, and some only speak Spanish. Many times, we are the only non-Hispanic people there, which I love. You know, the food is good and authentic. We haven't had anything here that we haven't enjoyed. By far, the best street tacos in town. They also have excellent cabeza tortas, as well as a variety of different meats for burritos and other dishes. We have been here many times, and I tried to go whenever I have the opportunity. It's a little off the beating path, but definitely worth a special trip to discover this gem.

    Quesabirria, Asada Taco
    Francis C.

    HANDS DOWN BEST QUESABIRRIA IN AZ. I've been going here for a couple years now, and obson has consistently been my favorite tacos in Arizona. The asada tacos are also amazing; they have that charcoal taste without being too smoky. Their salsas are all delicious as well. It isn't usually too busy so seating is never a problem for me, the service is fast, and the place is clean. I will keep coming back!

    Carne Asada Fries -yuck
    Christina K.

    What a disappointment. I was craving some carne asada fries. After searching through many places, I chose Taqueria Obson. I called in to order them on my way to work and requested that onion and cilantro be added. I arrived early, knowing those fries need to be eaten fresh, or at the very least open the container so they don't get soggy. Well, to my disappointment, there was not a single crispy fry in my dish. And it wasn't the kind of soggy that sat in a hot box. It was just never crisp, completely soggy, not even light brown in color. Like nearly white fries. And the carne asada looks more like ground taco meat and the onion/Cilantro wasn't added. All this to say it was a complete BUST!! I will never return to this place and don't recommend.

Out of all the restaurants I had before leaving Arizona, THIS ended up being one of the places I couldn't stop thinking about after I moved away. Ever since leaving, I've randomly craved these tacos constantly. I've tried other taco spots in Denver hoping something would compare, but honestly nothing really hit the same. So when I came back out to Phoenix recently to visit some friends, this was one of the first places I knew I needed to come back to because I had built it up so much in my head over time. And somehow... it was just as good again. The meat tastes incredibly fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned, and you can literally watch them prepare everything right in front of you, which makes the whole experience even better. There's something so satisfying about seeing the tacos being made fresh instead of food just appearing from the kitchen. You can tell they care about quality and consistency. The servers were also super friendly and welcoming both times I came here, which honestly makes such a difference. Everyone had great energy, the service was quick, and the whole place just feels inviting and authentic. I honestly think the fact that I remembered this place so vividly for so long says everything. Usually when you revisit a restaurant after hyping it up in your head for years, it ends up disappointing you. But this place tasted exactly how I remembered it, fresh, flavorful, comforting, and absolutely worth the obsession. Safe to say this place is officially a mandatory stop for me anytime I'm back in Phoenix now.
