In a no-frills setting, El Horseshoe serves up authentic Sonoran and Sinaloa delights, with homemade tortillas and standout machaca that'll have you craving another bite.
"It’s hard to get more “old-school Arizona” than a platter anchored by machaca — dried and rehydrated beef. The version at El Horseshoe restaurant has long been considered one of the most satisfying in town. At simple red tables in an unadorned room, diners tuck into what’s considered the best plates of machaca in town, alongside eggs, potatoes, or vegetables. Another great way to experience the shredded beef here is with rice and beans wrapped into a flour tortilla." - Mcconnell Quinn
"The Avitia family produces one of the great old-school, hard-way machacas in town. For it, they dehydrate beef in-house. Shredded and cooked, their machaca has an intense, concentrated flavor, the beef rippling with umami. Machaca, historically dried to prolong shelf-life, is made for rolling into a burro and savored before a hard day’s work. At Horseshoe, it shines on a thick flour tortilla with eggs — a breakfast true to the Sonoran Desert." - Chris Malloy
