18 Essential Mexican Restaurants in Phoenix

"These no-frills West Valley taco spots claim to serve the best carne asada in town, and the locals who keep them packed surely agree. Cooked over mesquite on a Santa Maria grill and tucked in supple tortillas, the smoky, succulent meat is further enhanced by adornments from the neatly kept salsa bar, stocked with crisp, finely chopped cabbage, lime wedges, verduras, avocado cream, pickled onions, and excellent salsas. Loyalists swear by the Hazz taco, a luxurious combo of steak, green chile, and cheese, but don’t sleep on the barbacoa, lengua, tripitas de leche and huevos de becerro (yep, that’s tender, springy calf testicles)." - Nikki Buchanan

15 Top Taco Destinations in Phoenix

"Customers line up all day long for a crack at Ta’ Carbon’s excellent tacos, filled with charcoal-grilled meat that’s charred, smoky, and sublime in its simplicity. Carne asada is the restaurant’s claim to fame, but don’t sleep on the Taco Hazz (carne asada with green chile and melting cheese), the campechano (a meaty mixture of flank steak, chorizo and crispy chicharrónes), or the ultra-tender huevos de becerro (calf testicles). Load up on salsas and other taco trimmings at the elaborate salsa bar." - Nikki Buchanan

The 10 Best Burritos in Phoenix - Eater Phoenix

"On the west side, Ta’Carbon crafts a classic Sonoran-style carne asada burrito. The smoke of a charcoal grill perfumes the restaurant, getting the experience of the burrito going before sight, with the very first inhalation of mesquite-rich fumes. A robust smoke saturates the steak, sizzled on the grill and chopped to bits at a brisk clip, as the flow of customers tends to keep steady and strong. True to Sonoran style, the burrito is minimal, little distracting from its grilled steak." - Chris Malloy

I have read and heard a lot of good things about this place. I was very underwhelmed. It is an inextricably busy place set in a defunct fast food restaurant. I love a good salsa bar, but when busy this one tucked in a small corner is nearly unusable. Secondly, is there any hot salsa in Phoenix? We ordered the tacos, hazz 4.5/5, asada 3.5/5, pastor 2.5, barbacoa 1/5, and cabeza 1/5 (the last two had a baby food consistency. I continue to search for truly good Mexican food in Phoenix area.

This is the Holy Grail of Tacos. A nice place to enjoy food with a Family Atmosphere. The service is quick and they always get your food made to order. If i could give more stars to Ta Carbon, I would.

I came here for dinner on a busy Saturday night, but we still grabbed a booth despite how packed it was. The food was super tasty and authentic, especially the tender lengua and soft corn tortillas, though I had to hit the salad bar for extra flavor.

Great value tacos. The steak, green chili, and melted cheese taco (taco hazz) is my group’s clear favorite, then the al pastor, then the carne asada. These aren’t the best I had but they are pretty solid. 3 is a good snack.

If you’re looking for an authentic, no-frills taco experience, Ta’ Carbon is the place to go. I recently tried their Al Pastor and Asada tacos, and both were absolutely fantastic. The Al Pastor was perfectly seasoned, with just the right balance of smoky and sweet flavors, and the marinated pork was tender and juicy. The Asada was equally impressive—charred to perfection and packed with bold, savory taste. The tortillas were soft and fresh, adding the perfect touch to every bite. The small, casual setting gives it a cozy, local vibe, and the service is friendly and quick. Highly recommend for anyone craving some delicious tacos!

I’m vegetarian open to dairy and had the perfectly executed cheese quesadilla. Grew up on the border Texas and have experienced GRAND hole in the wall award winning restaurants and can fully attest that this place carefully seasons its cheese and with the quesadilla it was PERFECT. I also had the cheese bean burrito and it was good just not out the park spectacular like the quesadilla. The POS payment setup is very straightforward and smooth. Clean place. Welcoming folk.

Although the tacos were good. Finding this in my 10 yr old horchata drink was disgusting, unhygienic & unacceptable. Reached out to them & no response. If you want metal pieces from their kitchen in your drink or probably food. Definitely go there.
