Finding the best Mexican food in Arizona is like finding the best rainbow or picking your favorite song. It depends on so many different little things that are subjective by so many different people.
 Tastes vary. Prefrences are subjective to the individual as well as the individuals personal culinary past. So in that light I figured I would give you my humble (SIC) opinion and why I like (SOME) of what I like. You dont have to like what I like…Just read it!
Burrito: Taco Del Mar. Now I’m sure you can get a more “authentic” burrito somewhere else but the quality, quantity of ingredients, and taste sensation of these burritos really make Taco Del Mar the place to be. You can get your burrito customized with every ingredient they offer (alot) as well as a full menu of meats to choose from: Carne Asada Steak, Ground Beef, Shredded Beef, Pork Mole, Braised Chicken, Fish, Vegetarian and Vegan as well. Most meals come with chips and salsa as well as rice and beans. Go to Taco Del Mar – Roll a Fatty – and Enjoy!
Drinks: Horchata. Los Betos Mexican Cuisine 4353 E University Dr Mesa, AZ 85205
(480) 830-6108. In Central America and Mexico, horchata is a rice beverage. While the drink is usually cold, white and “milky”, some recipes call for milk, and others do not.Traditionalists usually call for a rice-water variation that is easier on the digestive system.Los Betos serves a rice-water (milk) version that is full of cinnamon and vanilla.The finest water in all of Mexico I was once told. Â

Dining Experiance: Macayo’s 4001 N. Central Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85012: The Temple. This version of the popular mexican food chain is my pic because not only of the outside decorations, its a Azteca Step Temple, but because the food is Mexo-tastic. Popular standouts? Chicken Poblano and Chicken Maximilian.
