Maskadores Taco Shop — Restaurant in Mesa

Man. It hurts to write this review. Literally. My mouth is still on fire and its been 10 mins since I left over half of my "wet burrito" on the table.

Ive lived in this valley for just under 30 years. Ive been to well over 100 different Mexican restaurants in that time. I really like semi spicy food. But I have never encountered a "standard" wet burrito sauce that is even half this spicy. My mouth went numb. It ruined the food.

A word of warning from someone who eats hot sauce everywhere.... BEWARE of the red AND green sauce they put on anything here. It is super, super spicy.

I have never, not once in almost 3 decades left almost an entire Mexican meal at a table due to how hot it is. Im still in shock. Maybe they accidentally poured half a bottle of Da Bomb Insanity in the mix for the sauce... im not sure but you need to warn people about the heat level there.

Again. This is not my first rodeo or my 200th rodeo with hot foods. Im actually wondering if it was a mistake making the sauce that hot. No other reviews mention it.

$22 down the drain. Sad because Im guessing the food would have been great had I been able to taste it through the absolutely insane heat level.

Again. Beware. If you like super hot/spicy food this is your place. I thought I liked hot/spicy food also... now I need to rethink my choices in life lol.

Ill make a Filibertos comparison. The hottest red sauce at Filibertos is watered down Ketchup compared to the sauce that was on my burrito....and no, this is not exaggeration at all...Youve...

My mom and I went in today and we were greeted with a nice welcome! I noticed the staff was bilingual which was very cool to see because I’ve always had to order for my parents. The environment was clean and the service was quick! The lady attending us was very helpful and quick with her suggestions. We both really enjoyed the service and above all the food! We came back home to tell our family to come back with us. I got the tacos and my mom got the rolled tacos. I tried a variety of meats and was left satisfied with each bite. The meal was perfect and reasonably priced for the amount of food. 10/10...

The service and the food is phenomenal! I was trying to decide between the Al pastor and the carne asada, and the kind ladies let me try both on tortilla chips they fried up right in front of me! I went with the super flavorful Al pastor in a wet burrito. It was delicious and the red sauce on top was incredible and perfectly spicy. My husband ordered the Diablo Verde burrito and said it was REALLY good and hit all the right levels of spiciness, but after he tried mine he said that's what he's getting next time. So much food, I'm taking half my burrito home. We can't wait...
