Alfonso’s Mexican Food

This has been my third visit to Alfonso’s Mexican Food restaurant on 19^th Ave and Union Hills. Out of the three times I have found hair in my food twice. Second time I reached out to the staff to let them know about the issue. Julie was very unprofessional and rude over the phone; I requested to speak with the manager instead. Julie was very hesitant to even give the manager’s name. I politely asked for a refund after this atrocious discovery. Staff refused to refund my purchase. I will NEVER go to another Alfonso’s Mexican Food.

I’ve had several different burritos at this place so tonight I tried the Macho Nachos. Insanely good! It’s a meal and a half. No toppings on top with nothing below — nope, there was enough toppings for all the chips, piled high. Chunks of meat the right size and awesome chips. Honestly the best Nachos I’ve ever had. All the burritos I’ve had there are super filling and really good too. I don’t know this place isn’t packed all the time! Definitely my Go-​To Mexican restaurant.

My new fave for a quick tasty and affordable Mexican meal! Had the carne asada plate and it did not disappoint!

This place is hella bomb, and plus you get to support the little guy. I get adovada and love it, get yo self here and munch on down!!!

Good tacos. Unique shells — not like those ‘bertos places or the del/​bells. Rolled tacos are great. 1^st time here — we’ll be back! Sauces are pretty good too btw.

This is a simple place, décor wise. You order at a counter and there are several tables you can eat at. Everyone else that came in took their order to go.
The food was amazing. Two of us had the carne asada taco combo meal and they were amazing. Husband got the ranchero burrito without the breakfast potatoes and it was out-​of-​this-​world. We barely talked during the meal other than to say «So good» or groan with pleasure.

Comfortable family-​style restaurant with order at the counter and pick up service. The chili Rellanos were outstanding, tacos were average they were good however they lacked much meat. beans were undercooked and tasteless. If I return I’d order a la carte skipping on beans and rice altogether.

Stopped by for dinner tonight and had a great experience. The food was fresh (carne asada is amazing), the sauces are all fantastic and for me, the tortillas are exactly what I am looking for, a little salty and zero sweetness.
The staff are super cool people and a pleasure to chat with. Highly recommend you stop in and see these guys!

Solid spot. Came across Alfonso’s while visiting for Spring Training. Everything was very fresh (chips tasted like they were fresh out of the fryer) and tasted great. We tried the tacos, enchiladas and sopes, all were great. To top it off, the staff were very friendly. We will definitely be back.

This place is amazing! I go for the breakfast burritos which are the best I’ve ever had. The customer service is very friendly and kind and the portion sizes are HUGE! This is my new favorite family restaurant hands down. Thank you Alfonsos for coming to our neighborhood!

Tonight we ordered two Alfonso’s. I ordered mine with shrimp ($ 2.00 extra), and my husband got his with Carne. We took it home, and divided ours in half, for the next day.
The shrimp was amazing, nice and large, and both of the burros were filled with everything!
This is the the 2^nd time, that we have been in here. We usually «eat in» the restaurant, but tonight we took it to go. The salsas are delicious, and while we waited, we munched on the carrots and jalapenos that they serve on the side.
Please give this little gem a try, you won’t be disappointed.

This place is great! The food is made fresh and tastes amazing. Dont go to that bertos place! …Alfonsos is so much better!

Don’t judge a book by its cover.
I guess the saying must be true «You can’t judge a book by its cover». The exterior at Alfonso’s is unassuming, the restaurant is very clean, the service is efficient, and I cannot say enough about the food. Alfonso’s Mexican Food is a delicious surprise.
Alfonso’s offers a large variety of great menu choices. Alfonso’s does not have table service, so you order your entrée at the counter, pick up your food, and take it to your table. The food is not what you would call «fast» food but carefully prepared food would be a better choice of words.
On this visit I had the shredded beef and ground beef tacos and both were really very good and seasoned perfectly. My lunch companion had the Carne Asada Burrito and he said it was the best he’s ever had. The burritos at Alfonso’s are huge, inexpensive, and most important, delicious.
If your ever in the area stop by Alfonso’s. The food is authentic and will not disappoint.

Wow this food was amazing never had Mexican foo
d like this cooked with care & the service was outstanding. We need more of these restaurants!
& must have that California burrito blow ur mind!

Great little spot. Freshly prepared food. Love the burritos and the tacos. In fact, everything we have tried has been fantastic. Also, the staff is very pleasant and the place is always clean inside. Highly recommended!

I had a breakfast burrito really good!!! The young ladies working there are really nice and great customer service. Very clean place Will come back soon

We’ve passed Alfonso’s many times and after seeing the many positive reviews decided to give it a try and are we glad we did!!!
My boyfriend ordered the Alfonso Burrito, but he customized it by adding shrimp and enchilada sauce– I couldn’t believe how humongous this burrito was– had to fit into 2 containers!!! What matters, though, is that he loved it– made fresh, carne asada was excellent. And he’s got the other half of the burrito for lunch tomorrow.
I ordered the carne asada quesadilla– again, huge, couldn’t eat it all and it was yummy.
We will definitely be back!!!

In my opinion not a good Mexican restaurant with the exception of the poor décor. There is no music and no fruit water I.e. Pinapple etc. the burrito was $ 7+ for chorizo, and ham added as extra… Not impressive. I give it three stars at least because it was tasty and they weren’t stingy on the meat.

I consider myself truly lucky to live in Arizona, where good Mexican food is very easy to find. Their are a plethora of Mexican fast food places everywhere you look in the Valley, and most of them are miles ahead of any «Mexican» fare you could find in other parts of the country. Alfonso’s is a solid choice.
Ok, you will not be wowed by the décor or the ambiance. But you will be satisfied with the food. On this visit, I went with the California burrito and was feeling particularly gluttonous so I added three rolled tacos with guacamole.
The California Burritto was spot on — a FRESH flour tortilla, succulent cuts of carne adasa, veggies, sour cream, and of course — french fries. As someone who grew up in Southern California, I can say that these are up to par with the California burritos I enjoyed in my youth. The rolled tacos were also very good, with a heaping serving of guacamole and cheese.
If I had any complaints, they would be:
1. They are a touch higher than average when it comes to price. ($ 3.95 for 3 rolled tacos?) With ice tea, lunch was $ 13. Not crazy expensive, but a bit more that what I’m used to paying for comparable fare.
2. They don’t have a salsa bar. They have two varieties — green and red — which they will give you at the counter, but I like trying the different flavors and taking advantage of the jalapenos and spicy carrots that other places offer.
Not huge complaints. Service is friendly and efficient. Free iced tea refills. The food here is solid and I will probably be back.
Enjoy!

I had the nachos with carne asada awesome.
Bean and cheese burritos were good.
Beef taco was a tad greasy but good flavor.
