I cant see the hype. Went there because we were starved after picking my sister up at the airport about oh about 8ish. Place wasnt that busy but it took about 15minutes to be seated. I had my three year old with me and this place isnt kid friendly at all. Nothing for him to eat either..except salty chips. We ordered from a barely English speaking waitress who couldnt understand us enough to answer basic menu inquiries. We received our food: YUCK!!! TASTELESS!!! GROSS!!! What they did to the steak was sad. Pounded so thin and stretched too the max..it was like leather. Burrito was dry dry..and when we asked for extra chicken we got a dried out flat breast so little it barely fit inside my tortilla!! Top it off this mess was expensive!! Never again. In its defense, location is good. Thats about it.

I hate to be the first one, but... It really wasnt anything special. Maybe its the type of customers going there. I mean... We are up on Carefree. I didnt expect it to be great, but with all the rave reviews, I was expecting good. The chips came out hard and a little too well done. The salsa was basically spicy tomato sauce. The cheese crisp was beyond well done. The chicken and beef were spiced with way too much clove. I know that seems petty, but it truly ruined the meats. The rice and beans were good. The cheese dip was pretty decent. The reason they got 2 stars instead of 1... The service. Their service is truly one of the best. I just wish they had better food.

Just got lunch here, ordered the Macho Burro with Shredded beef. This burrito is supposed to be filled with Meat Rice Beans and come with a side of rice and of beans. No Side of rice and beans and the burrito ONLY had rice and beans in it. NO BEEF! We called to complain and they wanted us to drive back to have the order fixed. Couldnt do that as the lunch break at work is only 30 min. They then hung up on us when we asked for a partial refund because $12 is a a crazy price to pay for a bean and rice burrito. Not going back.

I came with my truly disabled mother who was having difficulty ambulating through the parking lot, so I was assisting her. The hostess, which was standing two feet away from the door, just stood there and watched us struggle, but fortunately, an extremely kind Patron jumped up to assist with the door! The food was awesome, the wait staff was very attentive, but with a Hostess that just simply stood by and watched instead of offering assistance to open a door, gets my thumbs down . . . How sad!

Service was good , salsa was good. Chips were disgusting. The chips were really thick (not cantina style) and taste like very cheep store bought corn chips. Chips and salsa are the first impression and for most people the reason they go to Mexican restaurants. (Main reason for score of 2) Taquitos were ok but definitely not what you typically see or get elsewhere. The horchata hardly had any flavor. I hope they see this and consider changing their chips.

Who can make a burrito and taco (chicken) salad in under 10min, this place! And that is not a compliment!! Food was very basic and no where near anything authentic. Nothing special about this place what so ever. You are paying restaurant prices for fast food quality! And they actually had our (2 adults and 3 kids) food out, faster than most fast food joints! Says to me, its all pre paired and just waiting to be assembled.

Walked out of another mexican restaurant tonight to enter into Plaza Bonita I can say with out a doubt was the best choice we made since moving to this area. Server was awesome she knows the menu. Chips and salsa remind me of a small restaurant I dream about in Yuma that has the best in the state. This small mexican restaurant has everything going for it. We will be coming at least weekly if not more often.

This place has exceptional food especially for the price and speed in which they provide it. They are kind, family oriented and very attentive. I would however agree with the comments about the hostess, she seems better suited for the DMV. Be careful if you get the Cadillac Margarita, its so good but really packs a punch dont plan on driving if you have one. Pollo fundido is really good, very filling.

So far the best food Ive found , especially north Valley Mexican food. It was made from real fresh ingredients not canned msg. Server and hostess were awesome. Food came out fast and hot exactly as we ordered it. Also it was extremely crowded but that didnt have any negative effect on food or service quality. Great plsce, well be back and recommend to friends snd family

Being a Hispanic and trying the food. To me it did not have flavor. My 2 year old daughter loves rice when she got her plate she just push it back and shook her head and said no good. I got Pollo fundido and that wasnt good either. The chicken look and tasted like the chicken noodles canned soup and for the prices really disappointed.

AWESOME FOOD AND GREAT SERVICE WITH A SMILE! WE LOVE IT HERE! SO AUTHENTIC!. Update.. we were there for my recent birthday. ..they did not even sing to me! Dont go there if you are celebrating! No concern 4 celebrations! Hence, I am rating it down from 5 to 3...service was not the best, either. And, it was not busy.

Decent independent Mexican place. I like the Burrito Loco. Ask them for the green sauce with your chips - great spice! Nothing super special about anything, but in looking at the other reviews I wanted to give them a thumbs up / 4 stars. For its location and quality of food and service, I think thats a solid rating.

Horrible experience, we ordered take out. We ordered 3 meals for our family all three were awful. Food was obviously, left over and reheated. When we returned the food to the restaurant we had to explain the problem over and over. The owner came out and told us nothing was wrong with the food. I wont return here.

Worst place ever i did not get what i ordered and when i asked for a refund they hung up on me. The salsa was basically water with hot sauce would not recommend this place to anyone. I also called ahead to get my food and still stood there for 10 mins waiting for someone to even approach me.

Food here was wonderful. The restaurant is so freaking cute. The chairs are hand carved and painted, they have small details everywhere. Their chips are awesome and at the time of our visit we found out we could buy a bag. Which we did. The prices are reasonable and the servers are great.

My husband and I come here all the time, their shrimp dishes are especially flavorful and the Patron Silver Margarita is the best anywhere, chips and salsa are so-so, but Ive never had a bad meal (and Ive tried just about everything on the menu) the service is friendly and accomodating.

The salsa that comes with the chips is awesome, full of flavor and has a nice build up of spice. The fundito burrito and fajitas are always a great choice. Tacos el pastor is one of my favorites. I love getting to go food from here because its quick and easy.
