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.

I have been a Tony's regular for over 30 years. I have never had a bad meal. My husband loves the #3, chili relleno, beef taco, rice and beans, I get the #1, tostado, taco, cheese enchilada, rice and beans. The restaurant is small, but huge compared to what it was when it opened about 40 years ago. It is a family owned business, sometimes Tony is there, just sitting at a table, he doesn't work there any longer due to age and health. My daughter in Iowa insists on eating there numerous times when she comes home for a visit. It is not the fancy, lettuce covered mexican type food that you find at places like Macayo's or Garcia's, just good, traditional mexican food. The quesadillas are the best as are the chips and salsa!

I stopped in here last Friday before my boyfriend and I hit the road for Tucson. He suggested the place and I'd never been there, so I had no idea that the tiny little building we passed all the time was actually where we were going. Parking here is ridiculous, they certainly didn't plan it very well when it was built or it was never intended to be a restaurant. Whichever the case, we went in and were greeted by a friendly woman who would also be our server. The place is just as small on the inside as it looks from the street, but its got a sort of Mom & Pop charm. This could have been that there were two waitresses/older ladies in aprons sitting at a table speaking in Spanish, a little girl playing on that side of the room, and an elderly gentleman just sitting at a table listening to them (not eating, or being helped by any of the staff). Either way, it was cozy and nice. I found it strange, but not annoying to sit right under a television while we ate. Hey, I enjoyed the Judge Joe Brown episode we were in time for. The prices for our food were very reasonable and we were given chips and homemade salsa while we waited. Just a few minutes later, maybe 10-15, our food was ready. Everything was good and hot, but gave me heartburn & an upset stomach later. For this, I blame my boyfriend for not telling me until after the fact that he'd gotten sick once eating there because the food was just too heavy. Anyways, solid 3 stars.

Hands down the best Mexican food I have had in Arizona yet! I've been here for almost 10 years now and tried many Mexican restaurants. There are several good ones, but not as wonderful as this one! There was 5 in our party, every single one of us loved our food. The two ladies working were on the ball. Never forgot anything we asked them. They were friendly and very fast! The chips were fresh, thin, and warm. The salsa is not chunky with just the right flavor and heat. We kept asking for refills and they brought them with no hesitation. I had the chile rellenos and it was amazing. The serving was huge, the egg was cooked just right! Most places over cook them, not Tony's! The green sauce was perfect! The beans are flavorful and creamy. I could go on and on. We will all be back!

My very favorite go to Mexican restaraunt. Have lived in the valley since 1988 and hands down from the friendly staff, delicious iced tea, salsa and chili rellenos to write home about this place is frickin fantastic!!! Don't let the trailer appearance scare you off, be brave you can do it! Your bravery will be well rewarded!

Some of the best Mexican food in the far west valley, place is small but attentive. Green Chili is my go to for new restaurants and they didn't disappoint me. This place hasn't been in business this long without serving good home cooked meals

A friend recommended this place, and my wife and I figured we should check this out. What can I say about this mom and pop spot? Absolutely Fantastic! Overall great service, and great food! I ordered the Carne Asada Plate and you can taste the home cooked meal. We definitely will come back for another meal. Thanks Tony's Cafe! Authentic Mexican Cuisine! Yummy!

Based on recommendations from friends I decided to try Tony's Cafe for lunch today. The service was great and the staff was very pleasant. I ordered the Carne Asada plate and was disappointed with the steak. The flavor was great but the meat seemed overcooked. It was tough and difficult to cut especially across the grain even with a steak knife.

Butter crisp is a tasty appetizer. The place is a little small and the food ok. The waitress/ owner is always smiling and friendly. Service is fast. Chips and salsa is good. Nice little place to have on the way west side of town to have a meal. Red cheese enchiladas are good. I don't really care for the rice.
(4)ElizaTheFurs T.

Back in AZ...missed the Mexican food down here. Enjoyed my favorite chicken flat as, rice & beans. Location is far out in the west valley and worth trying. Very casual, fordable price, and great costumer service.

We drive by all the time and never know when it is open. We finally hit the jackpot today! It is just a hole in the wall. Tony's is spotlessly clean. The service is very friendly. I ordered the huevos rancheros. It was a little different than I have ever had them, but boy were they delicious!!! My husband had chorizo and scrambled eggs. He was trying to lick his plate. The food comes out bubbling hot, literally. The downside-they only have regular coffee, no decaf. My husband had the coffee and said it was very good. They also only serve powdered creamer. It was also very cold in there. I can't wait to go back again!!

The chickens enchiladas were absolutely amazing!!!!!! Some of the best Mexican food I have had in a very long time. I would totally recommend this place and if you want really good Mexican food this place is it!
(5)Lisa H.
Decided to give it a try based on Yelp reviews. We will not be going back. Red and green burrito's are very bland. No flavor at all. As a matter of fact has a lot of flour added. Rice was mushy. Beans, tamale, taco, chips and salsa were ok. They only have a carne asada plate. No carne asada for tacos or burritos. Never heard of that before. Wow! That is just strange. They are very clean. That's was the only good thing.

My hubby likes to find local owned restaurants especially when it comes to Mexican food. He heard about Tony's on ABC 15 and decided we would give it a try. The location is not the greatest in Old Avondale, and the building is tiny and shows its age. We ordered our meal as carry-out, I was in no shape to be seen in public so I didn't catch the inside. I had their carne asada combo plate which of course includes the staple beans and rice. The meat was seriously over cooked, and the beans and rice were bland. My husband makes way better carne asada, cooked to perfection. My husband had the tamale, cheese enchilada combo and he ate it up, mind you, it doesn't take much to please my Sailor Man when it comes to food. Overall I would compare it to a mom and pop version of Filibertos only not as good. It possibly could be better with a few beers. Maybe I will give them another spin...who knows.

It's the best Mexican food in the valley.
(5)Rob T.
I like Tony's a lot for the quick hole-in-the-wall Mexican type-deal. Their tortillas (pretty much the most important part at a place like this) are very good, and they have great, fast service. The salsa is fantastic too, if you can handle the heat.

My family and I went last week. The way I like to rate Mexican places is by their chips and salsa. If they have good salsa, normally their food is good. If their salsa is full of flavor, their food will also contain flavor. Tis place had good salsa that was spicy. So, I ordered the chicken fajitas and they were in almost a tomato sauce. Not a lot, just a little. First reaction was huh? But then I tried it. Oh my they were very yummy! I darn near licked my plate when I was done. The only complaint I would have was the rice. Not sure if it was yesterday's or just undercooked. But..... Everything else was very good. The place is small, so be prepared, probably only 15 tables.

Great food, incredible value. Friendly service. The restaurant is very small, perhaps once a small home, however, there is usually plenty of room and they can accomodate nearly any sized party. If you are looking for a good meal, without a lot of ambiance, this is the place to good in Avondale.
(4)Daniel G.
This is my favorite Mexican restaurant! I lover their chicken enchiladas. Unlike so many others, they use white meat and they are really great. My wife usually gets the chimichanga or tacos and raves about both. I love small hole wall places like this!
