Viva Mexican Food — Restaurant in Tucson

Opened up recently in the Goodwill shopping center on E Tanque Verde Rd and Catalina. Ordered our food to go and asked for the food to be wrapped up securely because in needed to walk home with the bag hanging from my Walker. The lady at the counter was so sweet and nice and had no problem accommodating my requests.

NOW, ABOUT THE FOOD. I couldn't have been happier with my Carnitas Burrito with pico and added cheese, guacamole on the side MY BURRITO WAS EXACTLY WHAT I'VE WANTED SINCE MOVING TO TUCSON 6 YEARS AGO. THE PORK WAS EXTREMELY LEAN, WELL COOKED, AND A BIT CRISPY WHICH ADDS TO THE HEAVENLY FLAVOR! YUMMY!!!!

NOTE: I'M SO GLAD I ORDERED THE GUAC ON THE SIDE BECAUSE IT WAS HORRIBLE! IT WAS THICK AND PASTE-LIKE WITH A BLAND TASTE.

I ALSO DIDN'T LIKE THEIR RED AND GREEN SALSAS. PLAIN, EXTREMELY HOT, LIQUIDS.

My husband had a Carne asada burrito with cheese and pico, guacamole on the side. I asked for the carne to be well done. The cook did a great job and provided my husband with one of the best CA burritos he's ever had. The meat was perfectly seasoned and it was grilled to perfection. My husband was extremely pleased.

We're from Southern California and the food from this restaurant took us back to our days of enjoying Mexican food in sunny San Diego (Escondido),

I would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for the guac and the salsa.

OVERALL: GREAT SERVICE AND YUMMY FOOD! 😎🌮🌯🫔😎

I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK FOR MORE!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR A GREAT EXPERIENCE! AND WELCOME TO OUR...

Arrived here as a first time guest. The building appears to be well maintained and free of any noticable deferred issues. Upon entry l immediately found the AC setting to be highly enjoyable. 108° outside and a cool 70° something inside. The place appeared clean including the restroom. Despite making eye contact with me the staff remained in the rear of the kitchen for several minutes talking until the lady running the register finally arrived to take my order. While her English was better then my Spangish, ordering proved difficult due to our mutual inability to effectively communicate. After a point at the menu choices to order session I had successfully placed my order. The salsa bar was never stocked and remained empty during my entire visit. Indifference seems to be the consistent theme of choice at this establishment. My food arrived fairly quickly after what l considered an acceptable wait, the food arrived free of any issues. I found my food hot, fresh and delicious. I found my food to be extremely flavorful. While this establishment seems to conduct a brisk drive thru business, as a interior guest l just didn't feel the love. I did not feel valued as a guest here. I felt my presence was an inconvenience to the staff. While the food was flavorful and delicious, the service was poor at best and will motivate me not to return. Worth eating at? Heck Yes. Worth visiting?...

We got the potato taco meal, which comes with four tacos and a drink; the strawberry xango, which is like a cheesecake dessert with a churro wrap and strawberry sauce; and the rolled tacos meal, which comes with five rolled tacos, guacamole, and a drink. The potato tacos have a lovely crunchy shell with a smooth mashed potato-like filling and lettuce and cheese on top. The red sauce goes very well with them. The rolled tacos are like taquitos but way better. The xango tasted like a Mexican cheesecake. The wrap reminded me of churros, but much softer with a mild crunch. The filling had a strong flavor that was well balanced with the cinnamon sugar coating. The prices are all very fair for how much food you get, the music is just the right volume to hear without it being too loud, and everything feels pretty clean. The hanging chilis are...
