When it comes to discovering the best Mexican food in Arizona, we like to go straight to the source: our readers (that means you)! We receive countless nominations for must-visit restaurants, small towns, and other attractions in the Grand Canyon State, and this article is all about showcasing those suggestions. Below, you’ll find seven reader-nominated Mexican food joints that each deserve a spot on your foodie bucket list.
This unassuming, family-owned restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, serving up delicious Mexican food at a great price. The menu is very extensive and features all the usual suspects like burritos, combination plates, tortas, and more. Don't miss the weekend specials!
Next time you're passing through Bullhead City, make it a point to stop at Agaves before getting back on the road. This no-frills eatery dishes out real, homemade Mexican food that will send your taste buds straight to heaven. Pro-tip: order the tomatillo salsa and thank us later (especially if you love spicy food).
In a town with great Mexican food around every corner, deciding where to eat can prove to be an almost paralyzing task. Guayo's "On The Trail" is always a safe bet, this family-owned restaurant has been around for nearly 100 years, and it's still just as wildly popular as it was in the beginning.
Situated just west of the Wigwam Resort, Old Pueblo Cafe is known for its mouthwatering, Sonoran-style Mexican food made from scratch each day. You'll see classics like tacos, tamales, enchiladas, and more on the menu - all with a Sonoran flair that takes the flavor over the top. Oh, and don't even think about leaving without trying Chef Tina's famous flan!
With a whopping five locations across the Phoenix area, Serrano's has definitely made a name for itself. The restaurant is consistently ranked among the best Mexican eateries in the Valley, and all it takes is one bite to understand why. Whether you order something traditional like a chimichanga or opt for a limited-time special, there's something for everyone on the extensive menu.
Some of the best Mexican food of your life is waiting for you at Indian Village in Cave Creek. This iconic spot has been a local favorite since 1972, and their Navajo tacos and other authentic eats are simply to die for.
Located in Ajo (but really more towards Why), this roadside Mexican restaurant is more than worthy of a pit stop. The portions are large, service is prompt and friendly, and prices are affordable. What more could you ask for?
