I drive by here everyday from work and finally made an opportunity to stop in after reading about it in an article from AZ Republic’s Dominic Armato awhile back. If you know anything about McDowell Rd, it has great Mexican food up and down its long stretch of road. This place is a nice welcome addition to some of Arizona’s great food from across the border. It was started by a couple from Chihuahua, Mexico who wanted to bring their flavors from home to the Valley. The outside doesn’t look like much, but don’t let that fool you.This place serves up some top-notch taquerias. Food is ordered at the counter and you have a choice to dine inside or on their patio. They have a nice variety of slow simmering meats to choose from (including lengua (beef tongue) and tripe) that are packed into fresh corn tortillas. I went for the asada, pastor and the signature taco chiwas (a combination of beef, ham, cheese, Hatch chiles and jalapeos). I seriously felt like I was chilling on some beach in Mexico putting down some buck street tacos. The meat is so tender and juicy. They have a nice condiment bar that you can get sides of salsa, guac, radishes and chilis to add to your meal. One thing I love about this place is the prices are very reasonable. Some of these new Americanized joints way overcharge for their tacos. You can get a full meal for under $10 here. I highly recommend getting their bean soup on the side – super good! Also on their menu are burritos, flour gorditas and breakfast (served 10am – noon). foodartandculture.com
