Reviews
Really incredible Mexican brunch buffet spot that is also truly a hole in the wall. Located on Tucson’s far southwest side, this spot is authentic as it can get. We went on a Sunday morning and it was packed. They have indoor and outdoor seating, but rest assured it’ll feel like you’re eating outside. The floor here is dirt and the interior is unfinished. None of that matters. What matters is the food rocks. They have a wide variety of Mexican items and a few American ones like pancakes. All of it was great. This place helped me get over my fear of Mexican buffets after a gross experience in El Paso. The staff were also really friendly and this place was cheap.
The food was amazing!!! Best authentic Mexican food. The menudo was probably some of the best I ever had!. The ladies were so super sweet, kind, and helpful. They made your feel welcomed. They were also always cleaning the buffet area making sure it stayed clean
This will be a forsure stop when visiting Tucson. I highly recommend it.
If your ever around Mission & Drexel just behind Chico's smoke shop you need to try some taco's and menudo at Los Mezquites. It really doesn't get anymore authentic then this. Very friendly service and awesome food. We will definitely be returning.
The food was absolutely amazing. Tastes like my mother in laws food. My son showed me the tik tok video and decided to try it. So so glad we did. Thanks to the staff, very prompt with our drinks.
We went during Sunday brunch. Food was good, but not worth the $16 rate per plate given the poor seating arrangement and inevitable chaos. The place doesn’t have any flooring, it’s nothing but dirt/rocks and the place smells as such. In the middle of our meal, my son pointed out the spider webs on the back of the chairs and wooden posts. When I turn around I see a huge black widow spider on the back of my chair (literally inches away from my back). We did not enjoy our meals after noticing the critter and when we brought it to the attention of an employee (who understood us perfectly as we speak Spanish), he neglected to address the issue and simply looked at us blankly, without any response. Will not be returning to this establishment, don’t care how good their food is.
It's probably some of the most authentic carne asada tacos I have had. The bean and cheese quesadilla was amazing and the salsa bar was great! Clean and comfortable atmosphere, it was nice and cool inside and you can smell the aromas of the meat cooking from the street.
Great spot for some homemade Mexican food!! Highly recommend the breakfast burrito with bacon, egg, cheese, potato and beans.
I love going to this place. I feel like I'm in Rocky Point having street tacos. It is family owned and the people there are very kind. Check out the weekend buffet. It is delicious!
