Alright so be away from good mexican food for two years has taken its toll. I am staying in Tempe and so far Macaya's is great and I love the atmosphere also.

Please tell what your favorite spots are...I am eager for some real, good mexican food.

Thanks

Popo's. 67th Avenue & Indian School on the west side.

It's great if you don't mind the hole-in-the-wall atmosphere.

Carolina's is also at the NE corner of Cave Creek and Cactus....very popular....certainly not touristy with mariachis and the whole quaint bit, but real good food you eat from a styrofoam plate after they yell out your number....great enchilada sauce, chips, and tortillas.....

Rosita's Place, at 2310 E McDowell, was good the last time I ate there (been a while).....the location adds to the divey, authentic ambience...

there are two other Rosita's, one in Tempe and one in W Phx...they may be very good and don't know if they're related to the McD location

Popo's! A bit of a drive for us, but we like the food, so we go there from time to time.

Julios is by far the best, there is one near PV mall on Tatum, and one in scottsdale on Indian School near Miller I believe.
