Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

Average breakfast burrito for a fair price.

Sitting in here right now! The girls who work the register are always so rude and unfriendly. I love their food or I would never come here for that reason. They never answer their phone for carry-out orders when I call, but always seem to be on the phone when I'm in the store! I don't know if they don't think customer service isn't important or they don't care but they should seriously consider being nicer to their customers. Especially ones who come often.
(2)E D.
I went there after reading the Yelp reviews and because it was only a few minutes away from my families condo! I had the Carnitas and Fish taco one day and a Chorizo breakfast burrito the other day. All were really yummy and the ladies working there were very nice! If you're in the area it's worth a try and it's cheap. They also serve the breakfast burritos all day, a plus!
(5)Steven A.
Everything here is good. I'm from LA and ww have bomb Mexican fast food. Los Favoritos is filling the void in my life. I am used to Albertos, out here it is called Fillibertos, and this annihilates them all.
(5)Ishmere M.
Breakfasts burritos are awesome! Can be very busy during the day. Clean establishment fairly priced, and good food.
(5)Joshua E.
Hair in food, cold tortillas and powdered drinks. This is NOT right. And the staff is rude, the plaza is very ghetto and sketchy at night, plus eating there is a risk with their very outdated, dirty tables. Too many other choices, so I will never return.
(1)Jolynne V.
I love Favoritos, mainly for their bean and cheese burros, which have creamy beans and taste amazing with their red and green sauce. We also love their shrimp tacos, which are comparable to the kind we get in Pacific beach. The price is decent and they are always quick.
(4)Megan W.
Cheap. Tasty. Good carne asada. Hot red and green sauce upon request. I love their rolled tacos with guacamole, smothering in before mentioned hot sauce plus a horchata. Extremely ugly interior with a lonely claw machine in the corner plus an always amusing clientele set.
(4)Jocelyn K.
If you are a carb person, come here to try their flour tortillas. The tortillas are extremely QQ (what Taiwanese people call soft and chewy). To really take full advantage of their amazing tortillas I'd either order a burrito or their special combos which comes with a warm tortilla. Go for the meat in the burritos. We ordered a fish, which was delicious, but it was a bit more breading than I wanted. Unfortunately, they were out of the adobada, so we ordered the carnitas taco instead. This was a good choice on our part. Very fresh and meaty. Much better than the fish. I wish we ordered this as a burrito instead of the taco. For the combination plate, I tried the #8 chorizo plate. The mixture of eggs and potatoes was delicious, but there wasn't much chorizo. The tortilla that comes with the combo is even more delicious than the one they use to wrap the burrito, probably because they warm it up for you. I can't get over how QQ that tortilla was. If I lived here, would definitely frequent this place often for lunch. And everything is so cheap and in large quantities!
(4)Andrew M.
Said they'd be open until 10 and the closed before 9:45 . What the fuck. Daddy needs a bacon breakfast burrito am I right ?
(1)Alexzander E.
Always great food, but the new younger cashier is so rude it's ridiculous. She has no concept of customer service and a horrible attitude.
(2)Joe W.
So I phoned in a order for a machaca plate... It wasn't ready when I got there and it was subpar... People told me it was good... Liars
(3)Elizabeth S.
I don't know why this place has a decent rating. The food was so flavorless to me, it was like fat on fat with zero spice. I know a lot of guys that eat the carne asada fries, but their burros and such were not exactly amazing.
(3)Mike R.
Everybody giving this place an above average rating has a seriously down syndrome poverty palate. Ughs Smh their rice is just awful, no spice, just an old oil flavor and unwanted corn and peas mixed in. Guac is spread thin and watered down to the point it's runny and might as well be tomatillo sauce. Beans are liquefied brown sauce. But hey it's cheap and at least the staff was nice. This place also really needs to serve beer. Blah I hope I don't trick myself into coming here again.
(3)Andrew S.
The best breakfast burritos EVER!! I used to be an avid Filibertos fan but ever since I went to Los Favoritos Taco Shop, I have never went back to Filibertos! Me and my wife have been going here for years I love their chorizo breakfast burrito, and my wife gets a shredded chicken bean and rice burrito she loves it, I love it. Nice quick fix in the morning or even in the afternoon if you're into breakfast for dinner, we are! All in all, a great place to eat, great prices!! Good job guys!!
(5)Shigeru Y.
Picked up the carne asada fries here. First time I have ever had this Mexican fast food delicacy. They were pretty good! The portion is very large, they use shredded cheese (not nacho cheese sauce), and the ground beef is seasoned, though it's a bit chewy/fatty with some gristle occasionally. The fries were hot and crispy. Dining companion got the chimichanga combo and said it was good. I've only been to the Chandler location before, so it's good to know this Tempe location is okay too. The atmosphere is pretty nonexistent, and there aren't even any booths (but there are a claw machine, Pac-Man, and sticker coin machines) but that's okay. The food is what's important! I did notice that the prices are much higher than I remember the prices the Chandler one had a few years ago. Stomach was a little "ugh, that was greasy" feeling after, but could've been much worse. Debating between two and three stars and going to go with three for their hours and order accuracy (I've had to get my order redone multiple times at Los Tacquitos so I was very happy it was correct the first time here).
(3)Christine B.
realllllllly good breakfast burritos! That is all.
(5)Candy M.
First off, we walked in and the place reeked. It was an absolutely gross smell. Nothing else around open so we went ahead and ordered a couple of two cheese enchilada meals. Imagine getting your tastebuds ready for oooey gooey melty cheese enchiladas and getting them home and finding two tortillas filled with shredded cheese that was unmelted, and with unmelted cheese on top. No way to heat them up because we're moving. All because the cook was too lazy to put them in another container, heat them up and then put them into the styrofoam containers. Why can't anyone just do their jobs anymore????
(1)Lindsey P.
I like this place. Food is yummy. Ground beef options, which I like (not all taco shops have ground beef options, BION) I'm a frequent repeat customer, which says a lot considering Mexican food is not even in my top 5 favorite foods!
(5)Age D.
When it comes to fast food Mexican There is so many Berto choices but over the years I've ended up at Los Favs Both locations have amazing quality and consistency They need to bring back the Red Chile though!
(4)Alyse H.
This is an easy drive from our house and it's quick to grab dinner here when we don't have anything to eat at home. I love the taste of the refried beans and the green and red salsas (although they are a little spicy!) You get a lot of food for the money. They also have aguas frescas here FYI.
(4)Connor U.
I've been a few times and I can't say that I've ever been blown away by it. Granted, I typically am only ever here right before they close up (10pm for a taco shop? Lame.), but there are other taquerias that I definitely get more excited about. I still enjoy coming here and love the burritos, but I would recommend giving some other taco shops a shot before swearing your allegiance to Los Favs.
(3)Kasie M.
I went to Los Favs this afternoon. Although I've been here countless times since I've moved, today showed me exactly how much I love this place. For a completely unnecessary reason the cashier was being talked down upon by a unfriendly gentlemen customer. Instead of retaliating, she kindly handled him his refill and went about her workday. This takes a truly amazing person to not give in when others are pushing you. When I stepped up to give me order she was nothing but friendly to me. That alone in my books is enough to keep me coming back time and time again. Aside from the customer service, the food is always delicious, generously portioned and speedy. I make it a point take all of my out-of-town friends here when they visit. Highly recommend. If I could give more than five stars, I would.
(5)Lily R.
Their carne asada fries aren't quite as good as filibertos' but their 3 rolled tacos w/guac I would argue is better and a very affordable quick meal. I haven't had any bad experiences with the cashiers. Also the decor is tacky and hilarious. Their hot sauce is green versus the red ones from filly b's and you can get em to go. They are really tasty=bonus points I think I'll knock off one star because of the perpetually creepy dudes hanging out around the place outside and lack of close streetlights
(4)Rachel S.
Excellent Mexican food. My sister and I came here for dinner after moving all her dorm stuff in. We were so hungry and wanted something fast but not fast food. The service was great and the food came out quickly. Definitely will be coming back!
(4)Angie R.
Maybe this was an off day for Los Favoritos... but whatever the case I won't be giving it a second chance. Because of all the raving reviews for their breakfast burritos we decided to try them. I have never had a burrito more gross than the one I ate this morning. Stale tortilla, greasy potatoes, bland flavor. Everything was bland; the salsa, guacamole, beans. We were both so disappointed. It was like eating a flavorless brick. The customer service was subpar as well. The lady at the front counter was rude to us and wouldn't even offer a smile or greeting. Again, maybe this was an off day but I was sorely disappointed. I want a burrito with flavor, freshness and excellent salsa. Phoenix, help me out- where does this exist??
(1)Frana C.
I really like this place. I have had their fish tacos, chiladas, tacos, chicken burrito, Carne asada, quesadilla, breakfast burritos, salsas. And nothing is bad. I mean really, they are pretty damn tasty. I love their breakfast burritos. They actually have good flavor! The decor isn't special but they do a good job of keeping the place clean. Good spot to get some tasty food. :-)
(4)Toby D.
The food is on par with Filberto's but this restaurant STINKS - literally! Their oversized street style tacos are actually pretty good, but the SMELL of this restaurant is a nauseating unholy combination of burning cooking oil, disinfectant and insecticide that could kill anyone's appetite. And to top it off, a big horsefly died at my table while I was eating. Disgusting!
(1)Mark N.
Cant get enough of their breakfast burritos. Bacon is my personal favorito
(4)Chris S.
Terrible sauce, canned enchilada sauce and a serious lack of flavor about sums it up. I always drink the salsa from a Mexican food place to judge what kind of flavoring they have going on but I assume this was something that came out of a jar or can? My enchiladas came with the cheese inside completely cold and was not melted at all. *Cheap prices *Convenient location *Gets very crowded and loud with little area to sit down If you can make it, Moreno's in Chandler is one of the best as well as La Tolteca in downtown Phoenix.
(2)Adam C.
Overall, los favoritos is a pretty good spot for some fast tacos at an affordable price. The chicken taco has an interesting flavor and texture with the crispy shell and the onion and green pepper mixed in with the shredded chicken. I would order this again. Carne asada is pretty standard, guac is smooth and has a good flavor.
(4)Criss G.
Tried this place out just yesterday, and sure it took us a little while to get there since it's a little hidden but once we got there it was all good. The cashier was very nice, and pleasant. The food.. . .it was average. I ordered the carne asada tacos combo, beans okay, rice good, tacos were a little on the bigger side and single tortilla ( and well say whatever but I'd rather the traditional smaller tacos with double tortilla), but hey not too many complaints about size either. I was also somewhat upset the sauces offered were not a bit hot, I certainly like to add some spiciness which Mexican food is associated with, but not possible here. So I guess above all the place is a very standard place for mexican food, the store its self is a little . . .well ugly, but food is decent, and service was fine.
(3)Fabian G.
Best Mexican food joint in the area, especially when you consider their prices. I've been coming here at least twice a month for the past two years and the cooks in the back deliver a consistent product in regards to both texture and taste.
(5)Brent A.
I've come here a couple times now and the quality of service and food has steadily declined. Had the famed breakfast burrito finally. It was charred beyond recognition and when I went to return it and I was treated horribly by the girl in the front. Not coming again. This is no longer my favorite taco shop.
(2)Matt B.
Went there on a Wednesday around 11pm. Ordered chicken taco and carne asada fries. It was good. The fries were crispy and the asada had great flavor. Would definitely go back
(4)Tracy B.
Nasty. Absolutely some of worst food I've ever eaten. No joke. This is pretty much Taco Bell. Icky. They put bagged cheese on every dish including chips and guac? We threw over half our food away because I felt sick eating it. Seriously there are FAR better authentic taco shops close by that are fantastic. However the customer service was friendly and quick.
(1)Burhan S.
I love this place. It's cheap and it's yummy. I tried beef/chicken/fish tacos and burritos and none of them let me down. My favorite is the carne asada burrito. It's big enough to fill you up and very delicious.
(5)Kristie T.
Tip: You can choose any meat for the Jumbo Burrito, which is a whopping ~20-24 inches long. For ~$9, it comes with meat, Mexican rice, cheese, pinto beans, and some guacamole that is not all that bad. I chose Pollo Asada for my Jumbo Burrito and wasn't all impressed with it. The chicken wasn't that flavorful, and even though I hadn't eaten a full meal all day I was only able to finish barely half of it. I planned on saving it for the next day, but I ended up not even finishing it because the flavor was so bland. I would recommend Carne Asada Jumbo Burrito, since a lot of my friends got the that for their Jumbo Burrito and gladly finished it. Service: I came with a large group (~20 people), so the wait is kind of long. Probably shorter with less people.
(3)Cindi G.
Food was good. Girl taking order didn't pay attention to order and screwed it up. Cook yelled at her. Fire that chick and it will be a 4
(2)Aften A.
Decent fish tacos. Ask for extra hot sauce, they use the tiniest cups ever.
(4)Omar K.
I'm a regular at Los Favs but this location is not as good as the Chandler/Gilbert/Ahwatukee locations. If the address was any of those locations I'd easily get 5 Stars. I feel like this place is a bit dirtier and smellier than the other locations and the overall quality just isn't as good. Don't get me wrong though, I still love me some Los Favs!
(3)Cheyenne N.
Good food at a good price, especially for college kids. The breakfast burritos are always on point, along with the carne asada fries. But they take forever and leave you on hold if you try to call in an order ahead.
(2)Laura R.
I have been to this little taco shop a couple. Both times I have been highly satisfied with the food. It can take a minute to make since the place can get busy, especially at lunch time. However the food is worth the wait! It's cheap, filling, and tasty! It's also nice that the place is open early so that you can get your breakfast burritos, but also open late so that if you are craving a burrito you can still get one!
(5)Jamie N.
I love breakfast burritos and someone suggested this place. The burrito I had was okay, It was good size for a good price. I liked the chorizo, but did not care for the tortillas
(3)San R.
Nice . Tried cheese enchildas with rice and beans. Quite different from other Mexican restuarants have tried so far. Had vegetarian options..
(3)Summer B.
Where do I even begin with this amazing place?! I have been a loyal Los Faves customer ever since the first bite I took of the chorizo breakfast burrito which has since changed my life. The chorizo burrito has become a very close ally of mine for too hungover mornings. It saves me every time I eat it. I have a couple times tried other burritos or meals, like the enchiladas and quesadillas and have never been disappointed. Each out of state visitor I have is automatically taken here to experience the spice of real Mexican food. I have never had a visitor do anything less than rave about this place. It is now within walking distance of my apartment, which is a real shame...for my diet. I love Los Faves and if you live in Tempe and haven't tried it out you are really doing yourself a disservice. Los Faves or Die.
(4)Casey B.
I love this place, I would go here every day if I could. It's not cheap, it's inexpensive . Which is a difference in taste. Burrito supreme for 5.75$? Yes please.
(5)Holly C.
BEST relleno I've ever had! Great prices and decently fast. Chorizo burrito is wonderful as well
(5)Reyna G.
If the staff isn't over flooded with orders the food and service is fine. If they are busy they ignore call in orders and the burritos kinda of suffer.
(3)Brittanie M.
Typical Mexican fast food place. Got the carne asada fries to go and they were really good - tons of meat with guacamole, cheese and sour creme. It was a to-go box full of fries and toppings for under $8 and it filled me up, which isn't easy!
(4)Daniel K.
I had the chorizo breakfast burrito Was the saving grace that could cover some of the stink from past experiences. However their combo plates are pretty average as in Filiberto's in a dining hall setting average.
(3)Taurie R.
It's not that great here. They give you tiny portions of meat. There's definitely better places in the area.
(2)Crystal J.
Oh my goodness!!!!! How could I have forgotten to review Los Favs?!?!?!?!? This is the absolute BEST little taco shop in the Tempe/Phoenix area. I cannot explain it, but they make the most wonderful food. It doesn't taste like every other Mexican food joint; it is legit!!!! The customer service is 100% on game every time. Some of the top choices include the Carne Asada Fries (you can have them make this into a burrito for you too), vegetarian burrito, super nachos, and they have the BEST cheeseburgers. I don't know what it is, but they are just pure yumminess. You cannot go wrong with any of the breakfast burritos either. I just moved to Oregon and this place is one of things I miss most about AZ. Enjoy!!!!!!
(5)Albert H.
Stopped by for two red chili burritos around 1pm on a Saturday. They were out of red so I ordered green. As I waited and saw a few small groups of customers after me receive there order before me I asked for my order and the cook says "it takes a few minutes for the chili to boil" 45 mins after ordering I got my order. TWO RICE BURRITOS WITH SPOONFULL OF GREEN CHILI! Never again!
(1)A T.
Best deal here you may ask yourself? The carne asada burrito special place. Inside this deliciously wrapped tortilla shell is the carne asada steak, pico, and guac. Absolutely heaven with every bite accompanied by their green or red hot sauce. Sides that come on the plate also include Mexican rice and refried beans. Both spectacular and delicious!!!!!! Ask for limes too when ordering. Fair prices all around
(5)M H.
Jumbo burrito is booombbb. Everywhere I go and get carne asada anything, the carne asada comes out chewy or nervy, it grosses me out, but this place actually had good carne asada In their burro. Horchata is good too
(4)Ajay C.
Decently priced and quality. I tried the chicken burrito with chips and salsa. Everything was super fresh. Even the chips were fried fresh. Very happy with my meal
(4)April D.
Best ham breakfast burritos!!!!!!!
(5)Rachel B.
It's really good americanized mexican food. I get bean cheese and rice burritos and it is always good without fail. They also have great horchata.
(5)Ian H.
I woke up with the largest craving in the world for a green chili burrito. I went to "Los Fav's" as we tempe folk call it and conveyed my enthusiasm to the girl at the register. All I wanted was a green chili burrito, with chicken instead of pork. Instead, I was given a plain chicken burrito with flavorless mexican rice. I cannot convey the amount of disappointment I felt at that moment. In fact, I was so disappointed, that I threw away the burrito after about three bites and told my roommates that I had just experienced the worst tasting burrito that I have ever had in my life. Then, my roommate suggested dousing the burrito in hot sauce to the point where I could only taste the stinging sensation of the red sauce. I concurred, that just about anything would be better than tasting the poor excuse for food that I had been given but it was too late for that. By this time I had lost my appetite. I was stuck in some sort of appetite "limbo-land" where I had not eaten more than three bites of food, but yet I had no desire to eat anything more. I could not even muster myself to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to try and salvage my sunday morning. Instead-- I decided to write this review. I wrote this review not to bash the lady at the register for messing up my order, but raise awareness and hopefully to deter others from making the same mistake that I did. AMERICA.
(1)Aaron P.
This is my go to place when I need a decent burro at a great price. Friendly fast service.
(5)Abby D.
Oh sweat baby Jesus. This is my favorite fast mexican spot in AZ. I would never step into a Filibertos ever again because of Los Favs. I used to live in the apartments located next to this plaza and decided to give it a shot since it smelled so good. Carne Asada Fries are what I recommend with lots of green and red sauce. DO IT, DO IT NOW!! Oh and if you're around for breakfast, do the chorizo plate...you will not be disappointed.
(5)May B.
I love mexican food. Be it upscale, street food, or even tex mex. This place was not good...even if given the choice to be in any category. The beans and rice were pretty bland, nothing special. I ordered carnitas and it was pretty terrible. It was not recognizable as meat, just dry greasy bits. It was clear that it was cooked, then reheated on a flat top with a ton of oil. Not to mention the fact that they did not trim the meat very well before cooking because there was a lot of gristle. The only good part was the tortilla.
(1)Akshay V.
for semi-sketch super authentic mexican food, it doesnt get any better
(3)Karen W.
After trying various menu items, my favorites are still the breakfast burritos (Either with bacon if you are in a meaty mood, or the bean with added potato), the shrimp diablo burrito (Piquant and spicy!), and surprisingly, the veggie burrito, which is a flavorful and filling mix of veggies, beans, and rice. As for the salsas, I like it, as people say from New Mexico, "Christmas-style", putting both red and green salsas on my burritos!
(4)Candace R.
I really wanted street tacos and I didn't think that I had been to Los Favoritos before so I stopped here on my way home a few nights ago. I walked in and the person at the counter was taking a call so I patiently waited for a few minutes. I had a change of pace and decided to get a burrito instead of tacos with some horchata. Waited not too long and I got my order. Once I got home and started eating, I realized that I didn't think that I had been there before because it's pretty forgettable. Maybe I'm not getting the right thing? But I can think of a few places that are better for the price.
(3)Jenteel P.
I've been coming here for several months thanks to the suggestion of you fellow yelpers! All I get is the breakfast burrito w no meat (potato, egg &cheese), so I can't speak to their other menu items. The breakfast burrito is delicious. Rarely can I go a week without having one. It has the right amount of salt and spices and the tortilla is fresh and slightly flaky. Prompt, friendly service.
(4)Emily G.
These burritos are on a whole other level. I don't know how they do it... But I sure do love it. Burrito Heaven. Especially Cali Carne Asada Burrito!!! O_o
(5)Brittany L.
My favorite taco shop in Tempe!! And great customer service!
(5)John S.
Best Carne Asada Fries EVER. The end Just go and order them and thank me later.
(5)Heather L.
So after living in Tempe for 5 years, I finally decided to drop in and check the place out. Total dive restaurant, but usually I have found, the dive restaurants usually have some of the best food. I have come here for breakfast now many times, their burritos are huge and flavorful. My only gripe is they use french fries for the potatoes in the burritos. If they made their own home fries in the burrito, I would dub them the perfect breakfast burrito. I have yet to try the lunch/dinner entrees, maybe one day!
(4)Zachary H.
Carne Asada Burrito or Bean and Cheese Burrito is where it's at. I moved away from Arizona four years ago and I still think about eating those burritos. One day I will reunite with my first loves!
(5)Anonymous X.
Eaten here a few times, everything has been great, no complaints. The chimichangas are really good, they put beef, green bell, onion, cheese, guac, sour cream, and beans. I love those things. Cashier is really nice and always smiles at me : )
(5)J O.
Been meaning to write a review for years . . . we eat here at least 3-4 times/month. The BEST tacos. Ever. And, yes, my wife is from D.F. and we travel EXTENSIVELY throughout Mexico (on the economy, not the tourist spots) and after the first two attempts we NEVER ate tacos anywhere in Mexico again because they are NOT AS GOOD AS LOS FAVS. That's the bottom line. Every time we return from Mexico we immediately drive directly from the airport to Los Favs for tacos. As to the other reviews: what is a "raw taco?" Are you saying they didn't cook the meat they put inside it? Sorry, but that is not to be believed . . . dipstick. If the food was cold you should have asked them to put it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Salsa is "not good?" Why? Because it's fresh and has no preservatives? Their salsa is equivalent to/better than some of the best we've found all over Mexico . . . dipstick. "Rolled tacos" are actually "flautas." So not sure where the nomenclature came from, but I have had them here and they are pretty damn good. Better than many I've had in el D.F., Michoacan, and Chiapas. Can't comment about the other menu items because we haven't partaken. But they appear to be packed to the gills at all hours with people ordering burritos (which, by the way, are NOT Mexican food) so they must be doing something right on that end. If you want the best tacos in the Valley (better than those we've found in Mexico and in all the other United States of America) go to Los Favs in Tempe!
(5)Ubaldo G.
Really SLOW service. They might have been killing the pig to make my chorizo burrito.
(1)Anna V.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this food - best tacos/mexican rice/sauces/authentic flavors ever! That's from a local hispanic chick! I'm still not through trying everything on their menu because I'm stuck on my favorite every time I go in. We used to walk our dog there for breakfast burritos almost daily. One fateful day I asked for fra-diavlo sauce on my shrimp burrito...YUM! I can't stop ordering it now; I'm absolutely addicted. Word of warning though, that sauce will clear your sinuses, for sure! Great prices, and they're pretty fast, too!
(5)Max P.
I don't know everything about this place.... but what I do know is that they have the most killer burrito and it's only 4 bucks. Did I mention it's the size of an infant! Seriously, I have lived in the Southwest for 4 years and this is by far the best breakfast burrito I have ever had. Heck if you come here you might even want to try out lunch or dinner. Inside is a little retro/old school with minimal furnishings, tables and chairs but sit down and eat it. Or if you don't like the inside just take to go and eat it at home.
(4)Barbara B.
Whenever I go in the customer service is great, I'm indecisive so when I don't feel rushed I'm happy. This place is about the same price as Filibertos but the food quality it much better. The beans never taste old, the tortillas aren't dry or hard and the rice has good flavor. I usually get bean and cheese burritos (Which are great here) but this time I got a carne asada burrito which was one of the best I've had, from anywhere.
(4)Alissa K.
Horrible. Raw tortillas and cold food

Why is it so hard to deep fry your frozen rolled tacos to a crispy finish so I can enjoy a crunchy experience the whole way through? Only the ends seem to ever be crispy at any Valley taco shop. The middle remains a soft mushy mess of frustration time and time again. After I eat your lousy rolled tacos, I can never go back because if you can't accomplish that feat, then the rest of your food will likely fall in line. The six rolled taco combo was also kinda cheap-ass. They only put guac on the things, no sour cream, lettuce or anything. Let's also throw in the fact that you must pay for the hot carrots and your lack of a salsa bar is ignorant in 2013. Oh, yeah, the cheese quesadilla was the only redeeming item I purchased. After four green beers, usually most Mexican food tastes good, but this meal was a glaring exception.

Got the lengua burrito and a horchata. They were a little slow on the service, but granted I came in a large group and they seemed somewhat overwhelmed. The lengua was nice and soft, but I kind of wished it came with beans and rice inside the burrito. The lady also only gave me one container of each salsa (red and green) and wouldn't give me more, which would have been nice to have with the rest of my burrito. Horchata was pretty good though.

Horchata is delish! Familiar faces is nice. Pretty good veggie burrito, bomb breakfast burrito, seriously good. Decent prices, but their guacamole could use some work.

Best breakfast burritos in the valley!!!

Los Favoritos goes above and beyond what a typical taco shop should do. Every plate combination I've come across is not only delicious but extremely affordable. They keep the place clean, they are always kind, and they work with all kinds of requests. I highly recommend deep frying or getting an enchilada (wet) style burrito with green sauce. Best casual sonoran mexican restaurant in the Tempe area by far.

My favorite thing are the shrimp tacos. I think they are $2.50 and quite delicious. The location is right around the corner from my apartment so my boyfriend and I frequent the place. My boyfriend likes the breakfast burrito and the super burrito, which is like 2 feet long, but it still has a lot of filling inside.

Waited 30 minutes for a burrito. With no lines and four people working. They forgot my order. Avoid this place at all cost if you want quality service

Now don't let my profile picture fool you, I am not, in the traditional sense, a Mexican. Shocking, I know. But, I do know my Mexican food, and Los Favoritos is awesome! Wonderful in fact. Delicious, cheap, clean and delicious. This morning I got a bacon breakfast burrito with beans inside, and if you don't know, their breakfast burritos are their bread and butter, the money maker, and they never disappoint. The only problem you may ever have is the bacon being a little salty, and even then the always incredible hot sauce (or salsa, whatever) is there to save the day. The carne asada is very good, seasoned well and almost always very tender, the beans, which are cooked with wonderful, wonderful lard, are always just firm enough, never just a pile of mush, never watery, the chicken is juicy and tender, I just can't say enough about it. The only negative I have is that one of the counter girls is a bit rude, and there is a military service recruitment center right next door, so at times you may be bothered a little by them, but come on, they're serving our country, so it can be forgiven. Los Favoritos is the best fast Mexican restaurant that I have discovered so far. Do yourself a favor and give them a visit, at either location (Tempe, Chandler) and tell them Kevin sent you, they'll probably just look at you funny, but why not?

Excellent breakfast burritos! Even got the "thumbs up" from the kids.
(4)Lynn F.
I love this place! The carne asada is amazing and flavorful. Everything I've tried here is great. I've worked a bunch in Sonora and Baja Californa Norte, and this is the closest I could find to roadside tacos in Tempe.
(5)Julie M.
This is a good quick on the run taco shop. Tucked back in a shopping center. The place is smaller. The tacos are decent and my kids love the burritos.
(3)Alissa g.
Pretty good breakfast burritos, the carne asada and chorizo are the only ones i've tried. The salsa isnt very flavorful. Much better than Fillibertos.
(3)Kate A.
Best mexican food everrrrrr. Seriously. Not as greasy and more authentic than Fiibertos. Fast and friendly service, great prices, and it's always clean. The decor in the dining room is pretty hilarious, but all the more character it adds I guess. My favorite part is the vegetarian options. Try a veggie burrito with added potatoes (they're not actually just potatoes but more like tiny french fries), put a little red AND green sauce in it, and get ready for heaven.
(5)Gerson C.
This is hands down the best burrito in the East Valley! Fav's is always consistent and their prices are excellent! My standard meal is a California Carne Asada burrito, it comes with the most tender carne asada I've ever had. Also, their green and red sauce is a step above the competition, and they have great mexican rice, it comes with peas and carrots! Guac is exceptional, and they also have really tasty breakfast burritos that are available all day. Five stars for being consistent, clean and for having pleasant and professional employees! One more thing is that they close at midnight except for Sunday when they close at 10. Bummer but still the best!
(5)ashley m.
Best burritos ever. Very clean. Brenda who was taking orders was very polite. Love me some bacon breakfast burritos :)
(5)Cameron B.
WOW the reviews were not lying! I just killed their breakfast burrito. Honestly I think its the best I have ever had! Also I paid $4 bucks for this amazing burrito.
(4)Rylan M.
The best mexican food ever! This place is really cheap for the type of food on your plate. There burritos are huge! but my favorite is their chicken enchilada, everything works so perfectly and the sauce is just the finishing touches. The tacos are also something to die for. I would really recommend this place to any wanting good mexican food. This place is really legit compared to others around the area. Prob the only mexican food in the area that doesn't make you take a mean sh!t after.

Have you ever been really drunk off a small amount? Say... one drink? And you feel just absolutely horrible and want to die? Nahh.... me either. BUT... just in case this DOES happen and you are at, say, The Clubhouse watching a show, you can scoot your bum over to Los Favoritos and have your life saved! Yummmm does not begin to describe the food. 10x that of any ____bertos. I mean that. (Sorry Julio). They even put french fries inside Dallas G's burrito. I have never seen him so happy. Ever. Plus, when I said I was vegan and gf the chick said, well, get a bean taco! Do you know how long it usually takes to explain to someone that I just want a bean taco. No meat. No cheese. Just a bean taco. That's right. Just beans. So major kudos to her for grasping the concept that there are freaks like me in the world who don't eat animal products. I used to eat their breakfast burritos as well. Their potatoes are fabulous. Stop what you are doing and go now.

If you're looking for authentic, keep driving. I've never had anything here that remotely wowed me, and I've tried their chain several times. I should have realized this was going to happen too, when everyone who recommended it thought Filliberto's is good. Just because you see the red and green sauces in the little plastic ketchup bottles that remind you of your last trip to San Diego doesn't mean it's authentic. It's good for white suburbanites, I'll give them that much, but then again, so is San Diego. One word: gringo.
(2)Roland S.
Ugh. No. The place was cheap, I'll give it that. The food came out after a reasonable wait and the portion size was decent. But the food itself didn't taste like anything. Just super-bland. Also, the place could use some air-conditioning.
(1)Brittany S.
Best breakfast burritos in the Tempe area.
(4)J L.
Love the breakfast burritos. Favorites are the chorizo breakfast burrito and the bacon breakfast burrito. They aren't gigantic like some other places, they are a manageble size and quite tasty, with seasoned potatoes, cheese and eggs along with the meat. You can call and order ahead, too! These are my favorite breakfast burritos by far, flavor, price and size, and I go out of my way to still go here even after my office location moved and it's not convenient anymore.
(5)Katherine T.
By far the best breakfast burrito I've tried in my 21 1/2ish years I have been on this planet! And I am a tough judge. I generally only eat breakfast if it's really worth it. No time to cook before school can only mean limp boring toast or cereal. I'd rather skip straight to the coffee. When I have time to make something, breakfast burritos are at the top of my list! I'm a pretty good cook, but nothing I could ever make would compare to Favoritos. I used to order the ham&cheese burrito and have since mixed in the chorizo burrito. They are great! Filled with eggs, meat, potatoes, onions and a great blend of spices all wrapped up in a doughy tortilla. They also will give me as much hot sauce as I need, which is usually a couple tubs. I would go far more often if I lived closer! I still pretend I am a regular.
(5)Aubrie D.
I love this place!!! Lots of space and cheap, TASTY Mexican food. Not much more than that needs to be said.
(4)Alyse C.
I'm giving this place a 5 based only on their delicious breakfast burritos! They're also very speedy too.
(5)Jessica D.
Best Mexican food in the area. Cheap but not where you will get stomach pains for two days. Great price for the quality. The veggie burrito is delicious. Perfect amount of guacamole, cilantro and cheese. It is made just perfect. Go when its not too busy, because it comes out better. :)
(4)Sean L.
Great little mexican food place. Food is fresh and tasty and is a serious step above many other places in Tempe.
(5)Ashley B.
Authentic Mexican street tacos with guacamole for cheap. This place is far better than surrounding area Filbertos. Will be going back for more!
(4)Brittany T.
This place is THE BEST. Their food is amazing especially on a Saturday or Sunday morning ;) I always get the ham and cheese and potato breakfast burrito and it's absolutely delicious. They also have good agua de horchata. I've also been to the Gilbert Los Favs and it's equally good. And they have Cruisin USA in the back!

As a current chandler resident for the past 3.5 years I have grown quite fond of Los favoritos for some time for a few reasons. One being the red salsa which is not watery like Disgusting Filly B's. Any secondly their carne asada is a whole hell of a lot better most of the time than Filly B's as well. But for Some Bizarre reason this Los Favs doesn't quite make par for me as far as taste tests go compared to the Chandler Location. There is this strong salty taste every time I have had their carne asada fries and I highly doubt they salt their french fries then load on more salty stuff. Then they just kind of dab the sour cream on one side and guacamole on another. Now I know this sounds like I am just being over critical and picky as can be I am just extremely used to the pizzaz and way of doing things at the other location. I will be trying their burritos next time so I can see how those turn out, a little nervous but I will give them one more shot.
(3)Jada L.
One of my favorite taco shops. Food is consistantly good and prices are very reasonable. The staff is plesant, helpful and fast.
(5)Joe N.
I'm all about some Los Favs. I usually get the California Asada burrito which is super legit, and I'm actually a fan of their fish tacos too (not for everyone) and not as awesome as their burritos/dillas but they are good especially with their green hot sauce. Also the breakfast burritos are off the hook, everyone I know loves those. Plus the best part is it is cheap, quick and close by.
(4)Cruz P.
In a city overrun by mexican fast food, one taco shop must have the huevos to stand above the rest... Their hours aren't as friendly to the late night crowd as say, FIliberto's, nor is their kitchen as fast, but Los Favoritos' food blows them away. Food is cheap, and the lack of decor means you end up staring at other patrons, but Los Favoritos is always clean and the people taking your order are friendly enough. For fast mexcian food, Los Favoritos is as good as it gets.
(4)Whitney H.
Oh. My. Goodness. Since I'm vegetarian, I can only get a bean and cheese burrito (yes, I know the beans are made of lard). But I still love this place! + Prices are cheap! Good, cheap Mexican food always sounds good to me. - Location. Kind of hidden, hard to find. + Horchata. Yes, mmm, horchata. It's really, really good here. + Better than Filly B's by far. Just the right amount of beans and cheese in a warm but moist tortilla. Heaven in a wrapper.
(4)Stephen L.
I LOVE the breakfast burritos here, especially with bacon. Haven't tries the lunch dishes yet, but I will eventually!
(5)Illy D.
I live next door to this place so I eat there from time to time. Everything is overly deep fried, I get horrid heart burn after I eat there. The chips and salsa are really good though, had a good fresh taste to it and solid hotness. I'd stay away from the tacos though, they were horrible, reminded me of a taco bell hard taco, very plain and generic. Their hot sauces were watered down to the point that it was noticeable and not very hot or tasty. The rice and beans are also sub par in my opinion. I guess for a small taco shop this place is nothing more then OK, but their are better options with in a few miles.
(2)Kookie D.
I always give taco shops a fair shot! But omg..I think this place only stays in business because of surrounding bars! I was completely sober and having a craving...ate here for dinner one night. (can't speak for breakfast time) Everything is watered down! From the chili sauces to the beans!! Taco shop looks like a cafeteria...very empty, nothing on the walls. The chicken was dark meat and mostly fat. I will not eat here again. Which is a shame because I live so close.
(1)Rebecca B.
Los Favs is an amazing cheap Mexican place. I go there more than I should. The girls that work the register are all very kind and I have never once had an order that came out incorrectly. The carne asada burrito and carne nachos supreme are my favorites. Their breakfast burritos are the best I've had (I'm a ham fan) and their tacos are also delicious. A great place for anyone looking for inexpensive Mexican food that tastes authentic.
(4)Harrison W.
I've only ever had the carne asada quesadilla and churros, but they are damn good.
(4)Dan S.
If your looking for Americanized Mexican food, go elsewhere. For real Mexican food that is very good and priced right, this is your place. No frills, no gaudy decorations, no Mariachi band, just very good mexican food.
(5)Kristy R.
Just found Los Fav even though I've been living in Tempe for a few years. OMG! Gem of a taco shop. This place can get busy but they are fast! We usually call our order in and it takes about 10-15 minutes on average. Very authentic Mexican food. You can look in back and see everything being prepared from scratch. The service is always great and you can't beat the prices! I haven't had anything I don't like yet. Both their red and green hot sauce is fantastic! Spicy but not too spicy and they both have great flavor, not a flat chile flavor like some places. They have the best Vegetarian burrito! Simple but oh-so-good! Rice, beans, pico, guac, lettuce all wrapped in a giant tortilla...you can add cheese too! They have fresh tortilla chips for dirt cheap, very good with the hot sauce. 75 cents for a small bag and $1 for a large...yes... that cheap! Good enchiladas, quesadillas, etc...You can get a huge dinner for two for less than $10 and I mean, a lot of food! This is the perfect little taco shop. The kind you can roll out of bed to, in your pjs, after any kind of night and know you're taste buds will be taken care of. Definitely recommend.

We had the bacon breakfast burritos: Yum! The bacon was crispy, the tortilla tasted homemade and the ratio of bacon to potato to cheese was perfect. These are the best breakfast burritos we've had in a while.
(4)Amber Z.
I have had almost one of everything off of their menu and have yet to be disappointed! The staff is very very nice, and the food is great. One of my favorites is the shredded beef torta!!!
(4)B D.
I came here last night after craving carne asada all day. So I hopped on over here after work and almost missed it because it's tucked away and it's super small. The burrito did not disappoint. Carne asada was perfectly seasoned, tortilla warm and slightly toasted, guacamole and pico de gallo with just enough kick... I admit that I'm drooling just a little bit right now as a write this. If it came with a little rice inside I would have given this place 4 stars.
(3)Nick C.
Best breakfast burritos in Tempe. The only other place I ever go is Texanos, but in the breakfast burrito category, I think Favs has them beat. Everything is well priced and tastes great. They even have a pool table and some video games now! Def check out their nachos too! They are not to pass up!
(5)Jeremy E.
Great carne asada fries! Never had a bad meal from there. Great inexpensive little mexican place.
