I have never had anything so good in my life. Perfectly seasoned, authentic preparation, ingredients, fresh, layers of flavor built upon one another. I imagine I could move to Phoenix just for this. Its like a bunch of Mexican grandmas got together to make the most exceptional, loving meals a taco truck could make. This is no hipster food truck. This is a gem and a taste of home.First visit, I had Carne Asada Tacos (excellent), Chorizo Con Crema tacos (Delicious and rich), but my favorite of all was when I came back the next day and had the Cabeza Burrito. Ohh my goodness. This was the best burrito I have had in recent memory, likely ever, and I have been all over the country and every major city in most every mexican district in my travels. This was stewed so tender, seasoned so well and balanced with spice and fat (especially with the fresh lime squeezed over), perfectly melted cheese, layers upon layers of flavor... It was amazing... like I heard the voice of God himself as I tasted it. The salsa verde too was great and a perfect match to this along with the refreshing cucumbers on the side. The senorita was peering over from the window watching me enjoy it. I gladly gave her the thumbs up and told her it was soooo good. She replied with a sweet Thank You. She knows. Thank you so much La Frontera

After the loss of the World Series I needed good food to recover from the loss. I was looking for food that would make my soul whole once again. The atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming. Even though at first sight it seemed sketch. I ordered 2 Carne Asada tacos and 2 barbacoa tacos. But they had so many more options. My husband got 4 carne asada tacos and my kid got a big flour quesadilla with shredded beef. WE ATE ALL OF IT!Now that we know they are there, La Frontera 1 will become a staple stop every time we are nearby.

Excellent tacos and reasonable price. We ordered 5 tacos and 2 drinks and only cost $22.5. Highly recommended lengua (tender and juicy, also flavorful) and chicharrón (crispy, got a little chew to it). Tripa is a bit too dry for my taste.Kid-friendliness: Lots of family with kids. Very friendly environment.

Never coming here. Tacos tasted like plastics and had no flavor. Worst tacos thinking I was going to a good taco truck . I would say worst tacos I’ve had in Phoenix
