Best place. Who ever says that it's not the best must be crazy because not only does it have good service but the best food. im sorry but but it is my family & i ove going there & we know some of the workers they are all friendly and nice …
Vastly Overrated.
This place is a joke. Salsa is probably out of a bottle bought at Safeway. Terrible. Runny, soupy, and in no way fresh. I had the President's Plate, a tamale, which was barely edible and just
like the ones served at dozens of others "Mexican" restaurants around the city. I suspect they all come from the same place. The enchilada was nothing but some shredded chicken wrapped in a corn tortilla, covered with tasteless cheese and some sort of gravy. The chile relleno was not that bad. It was better than the horrible ones at El Minuto and El Charro but still nothing to write home about. The "bean tostado" was a fried tortilla in the shape of a bowl containing a soupy mixture of unidentifiable substance covered by shredded lettuce. There was probably 1/3 of a head of iceberg lettuce on my place.
The management is arrogant. Service is OK, with servers doing their best under what are probably horrible working conditions.
This is my 3rd visit, and I will never go again. This is a place to be avoided.

Horrible place. Horrible place! The salsa was essentially plain red water! I am sure they didn't serve that to Bill Clinton. The guacamole was sour and looked as if it's been sitting around for days. The 'fresh salsa' had no taste. The frozen margarita tasted artificial. Most food comes from cans and is overheated in microwaves (this part I would understand, but do not pretend to be one of the best mexican restaurants in Tucson!) The hype and the wait are totally unjustified. …
White Dude Married to a Latina. I had the President's Platter. I wish I lived here to come back and try everything else on the menu, Im stuffed. The Chile Rellanos are to die for you HAVE to get one, NO REALLY YOU HAVE TO! The refried beans are homemade perfectly. The Tamale was excellent and also the chicken enchillada. But the FLAN with whip cream stole the show! I am a white dude who is married to a Latina and have eaten many authentic mexican dishes IN MEXICO, and this place was like sitting at Tia Aracelis house back in Mexico. …
Continues to be good food!. This continues to be one of my favorite restaurants in the Tucson area. The food is consistently good and the staff are efficient and friendly. My only regret is always the wait, but I do love how they are open late, so it's always worth it! …
