Sure, you can order seafood at almost any Mexican restaurant, but it can be questionable to say the least. When you have a hankering for a sea snail tostada, ceviche verde de camaron (shrimp marinated in spicy green sauce), or pescado relleno de jalba con crema (fish fillet stuffed with crab), we recommend Mariscos Ensenada, […]

Don’t expect your standard fish-stick tacos when you order at Las Glorias — the menu features dozens of options, including chile relleno stuffed with shrimp or fish. Wash it all down with some fresh horchata.
The second-best part of Mariscos Playa Hermosa is the dining room and patio. The Sinaloan-style Mexican seafood restaurant was established in March 2002 by Jose and Maria Maldonado, both originally from the small colonial town of Guanajuato, Mexico. The scenery of their hometown shows in this beautiful, loudly decorated eatery. Chairs are bright pink and […]

We sure do now, thanks to the Sweet Virginia Ham Sandwich, a Coyle family recipe made with thin-sliced ham, sweet relish, lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise. It’s our favorite, next […]

In a North Phoenix strip mall you’ll find freshly roasted coffee beans at Matador Coffee Roasting Company. They strive to achieve the highest quality of coffee beans and espresso drinks every day and also serve house made pastries. If you’re hungry for something more they offer a menu of sandwiches and salads as well as […]
We can’t remember a time when the Matador wasn’t part of our lives, and we’re glad. Because life without the refried beans from Matador would be a life barely worth living. The burros here are so big, you’ll end up taking half home with you. Try the Colorado Burrito, spicy and chili-filled and scrumptious, or […]
Never again will we see the days of the old Matt’s Big Breakfast, with the wraparound line of hungry breakfasters at the original 800-square-foot red brick building at First and McKinley streets. The breakfast was simply too good, and the deserved accolades sent Matt’s to a bigger location a block north, then on to additional […]

With slats on the windows allowing air to blow in and cigarette smoke to blow out, the Maverick Saloon is considered a patio. At least that’s the technical term, and how owner Alfonso Larriva sidestepped state regulations after an 18-month renovation to allow smoking inside this North Phoenix bar. At first, newcomers may feel a […]
