Los Nopales Restaurant — Restaurant in Tucson

What a happy accident for us to land here for a late breakfast this last Saturday. I say accident, because the tip we got from our local food truck guy out in Vail directed us to the place across the street... but here we thought he was talking about Los Nopales. Super friendly service, was not too busy on a Saturday late morning. We were immediately brought water, chips and salsa and the salsa was really robust and tasty. The hubs went for the, Huevos Rancheros and I got the special which were 2 Flat cheese enchilada (homemade red chili) and eggs. HUGE win on the red chili enchiladas, the sauce was so flavorful. We really enjoyed the breakfast, the prices were solid and portions big. The gentleman who served us I believe is the owners brother (or maybe he is part owner as well). He shared they have a smaller restaurant on the southside that has been around for 25 plus years out by Tucson Estates. Even though we live farther east, and this is about a 25-30 minute drive for us we...

This is a great new old restaurant. I understand it used to be on the far west side. My first time but a favorite of my fiancé. He had the chicken fajitas & I had the carne asada tacos. Both dishes were delicious! (I snagged a bite of his) Everything was fresh and the meat was seasoned perfectly. Staff were all very friendly. Probably my only complaint (A - if you could even call it that because B - I think tons of restaurants are also dealing with this) is we weren't checked on very frequently and, at the end of our meal, when we wanted boxes and to pay the check, it took a great deal of time before someone finally came over for that. They just seemed to be short staffed. They just recently reopened so hopefully they're still in the hiring phase. Even with the slow service, we will still go back many times. The food was too phenomenal...

Very nice servers. The food was delicious. I came here around the end of June 2025 for a family get together celebrating my mom's birthday. There were around 13 people in my party including 2 kids and my 5 month old baby and the servers handled everything well. They were very kind and kept checking in with us to make sure we had drinks and made sure everything tasted good. The food was hot and very good and came in a timely manner. We all had a great time. We also brought a couple cakes and they brought a table for us to put them on and gave us plates to serve the cake to everyone. They gave us boxes to take home the left over food and cake. It was all around a great experience. It was my first time at this restaurant and I enjoyed it very much. Definitely recommend...
