First drive thru in years Best treat on my spring break
Salsa bar is a really nice accompaniment to the fine cuisine in the backyard taco shoppe. Spacious outdoor seating with fans when it is hot and heaters for the cooler weather. Large menu with something for all tastes. The smell of the grilling steaks is aromatic upon entering the establishment....

Food was delicious right down to the tortillas. The tortillas are authentic and the meat is grilled perfectly with great flavor. The sauce bar is awesome too with real salsa. Some of them are quite spicy and might actually roast somebody's mouth lol.

HUNGRY PEOPLE BEWARE. This location has gave us all varying degrees of food poisoning this weekend (20+ people all ordering separately and dining in) even though we all ate different things. Meat, beans, rice, veggies, salsas, drinks, etc. Our family will not be returning as the food is clearly a health hazard here and not kept to proper standards. I and other family members have gotten food poisoning from this location previously and usually avoid this location because of it. An extended family member from out of town insisted along with others who dismissed our previous experience so we reluctantly agreed and hoped for a better outcome. We were sorely disappointed and violently ill yet again. The original location in Mesa is amazing and has never made us sick but this one has repeatedly. I don’t know what they do differently but the food is NOT safe. Edit: I saw the response to my review. This is not a one off issue as it’s happened to us every time we eat here and my family wasn’t simply feeling sick like they imply. We got food poisoning from this establishment as we all experienced varying degrees of food poisoning within 1-2 hours of eating here which lasted for about 24 hours. Illness does not do that. They follow procedures when the health department does inspections but I seriously doubt it is followed all the time based on our repeated experiences here.

Overall worth stopping by however I will say that I would absolutely not suggest the tacos, in my opinion they were no where near worth the cost. However the burrito and the bowl were both good and the salsa bar and extras were great to have.
