Mercado Y Carniceria Cuernavaca

Cuisine: Market

Neighborhood: Central Scottsdale

2931 N. 68th St., AZ, 85251
480-423-5552

This tiny market in Scottsdale is notable for its crazy-good grilled chicken meal. Served directly from the giant charcoal grill outside the buidling, the pollo asado is juicy and perfectly seasoned and packed to-go with corn tortillas, rice, beans, and salsa. And it’s only 10 bucks.

Best Of Phoenix® Awards
  • 2020 Best Carniceria
  • 2015 Best Tacos
  • 2013 Best Pollo a la Parrilla
