El Bravo Mexican Food

Neighborhood: North Phoenix

8338 N. 7th St., AZ, 85020
602-943-9753

Website

You haven’t lived until you’ve tried El Bravo’s machaca burro. This small, pleasant restaurant makes some of the best flour tortillas around, and its green chile burros are hard to beat, too. It’s also one of the few places in town serving Navajo tacos, and popovers with honey and powdered sugar.
