Virginia's Authentic Mexican Food

Be sure to try the tacos—they're excellent! The atmosphere is charming as well; it's a place where anyone can showcase their decorating style if they invest a little money.

A delightful hidden gem in Arivaca, AZ, this restaurant offers authentic Mexican cuisine. The menu is limited and there are no drinks available, but the quality of the food more than makes up for it. Since it's run by just one person, it may take a little while for your order to be prepared, but it's well worth the wait. I tried the chicken tacos with cheese and salsa, and they were quite tasty. I’d definitely like to return to try the carne asada and breakfast burritos next time.

I thoroughly enjoyed the brunch I ordered. The food was both flavorful and expertly prepared, deserving a solid 4 out of 5 rating. The service was prompt and friendly, which is why I also gave it a 4. Although I only experienced the atmosphere through delivery, it seemed inviting and pleasant, earning another 4. Overall, this brunch was very satisfying, and I would gladly recommend it to others!

This charming restaurant features outdoor seating and serves authentic home-cooked Mexican cuisine that is truly delectable, crafted by a fantastic local chef. It’s an ideal place for a quick meal before or after your camping or hiking trips nearby.

I have a soft spot for the elderly lady cooking in this rustic outdoor café with dirt floors and mismatched broken furniture. It seemed like one of those genuine taco stands you'd find in Mexico, the kind that usually serves the most delicious street food. Unfortunately, our meal didn’t live up to expectations and didn’t offer great value. For $7, we got a beef burrito filled with chewy pieces of beef that tasted like they had been seasoned with Lawry's seasoned salt, wrapped in what felt like a store-bought tortilla. Alongside it were a few beans, a bit of rice, some iceberg lettuce, and a sprinkling of processed American cheese—not exactly what you’d call authentic Mexican street tacos. The meal came with a bottle of inexpensive Mexican hot sauce and an empty jar of her homemade salsa, with no offer of a refill. At least the food was served on a plate with plastic forks. There were no limes, radishes, cilantro, or other typical Mexican accompaniments, and no chips and salsa, just a foil-wrapped burrito. Our friends ordered a bean burrito, which was served in Styrofoam. Still, I would return just to support this elderly lady in her charming, dirt-covered kitchen.
