Taqueria Guadalajara — Restaurant in Prescott Valley

This is my favorite hole-in-the-wall Mexican food restaurant in my hometown of Prescott, Arizona. Well, actually, it's located in Prescott Valley, but close enough. A dear friend of mine introduced me to this place's delicious tortas back in 2001, during my college days, and I've been coming here ever since. Because I no longer live in Prescott, I tend to visit on the weekends, which is when they serve their posole and I simply cannot bring myself to order anything else. It's a HUGE bowl of spicy red broth with delicious hunks of pork and belly-filling hominy.

Don't fret about the large portion, if you can stop yourself from slurping it all down, you can warm it up the next day and it's even more flavorful.

My wife’s dinner was equally well above average. We saw that there are a large number of Mexican restaurants here in Prescott Valley. This was the only one we ate at. I can only say that, in my opinion, it would be difficult if not impossible for one of the others...

Took the opinions on yelp as a barometer but unfortunately the rave reviews didn't prove the same for me. Chips and salsa that come to the table lacked flavor but the waitress did say there was a help yourself salsa bar for variety so I grabbed a little of everything. Even the salsas there were lack luster with the exception of a orange pureed one that was ok. Dad ordered menudo and loved it, I ordered chili verde and it looked beautiful w pieces of roated chilis but it needed salt and the pork was dry somehow. I read margaritas were great so I had the classic w salt it was awful tasted like store bought bottled mixer w a hint of tequila. I really wanted to like this place as Im new in the area and looking for new places but I probably...
