    First let me say that there was a time when, in my opinion, there wasn't a better Mexican food restaurant in the state. The red sauce here is amazing. Back in the mid-90s when Rachel Pena was cooking in the kitchen and Anna was serving tables this place was rockin. It's been through a couple of ownership changes since then. Rachel and Anna are long gone. Though the recipes are supposed to be the same the food doesn't seem quite as good. The red sauce is still amazing though. We make a point to visit this place during every trip to Safford. The shredded beef enchies are great with the 3 chimi combo (beef) coming in second. I would definitely choose green chili over red at this establishment. I was a bit disappointed that I had to add salt to my plate on my most recent visit though. The salsa is also very good. This is the first place that I ever had fried ice cream, and it is amazing. I think I'll try some next time I'm in town as I haven't had any in years. I hope it's still amazing. Come to think of it, this is the first place where I ventured away from the standard bean burrito. La Paloma holds a special place in my heart as I developed my love of Mexican food eating here. Having grown up in the South, to me Mexican food was Taco Bell until my later teen years when I moved to the Southwest. I guess it's like a first love. You never really forget. They definitely had some rough times but seem to have pulled it together now. You aren't going to find over-the-top friendly service here though so let's get that expectation in line right now. Service is competent yet reserved. On my recent visits, I've not had a problem with long wait times for service or food and every table has been full. Matt S - you should give em another chance.

    La Paloma used to be our go to place for Mexican food when I lived in Safford, and I seem to remember it being better. We had lunch there today, and there was a lot to like (crushed ice for the drinks, low priced lunch specials), but overall it just wasn't as good as it used to be. The salsa needs to be kicked up a notch, because the spicy version wasn't very. My chile relleno was kind of small, and while I didn't notice it, my brother said the beans had a funny taste to them. I liked the enchilada sauce because it wasn't too bitter, but it needed a little more flavor. Overall, I was a bit disappointed, but am willing to give them another try next time I'm in town.

    Terrific Mexican food with creative menu items. Handy location just off the highway and in a cute building. Staff is friendly and helpful. A great place!

    I've been eating here for over 20 years. Food has always been good. Margaritas are good and the fried ice cream is the best around. The shredded beef burrito enchilada style is my all time favorite meal and I highly recommend it!!! Just wish they were open on Sundays!

    The food here is so bland. It's like no one knows how to season food properly. Their chips and salsa are the best I've had here in Safford.

    The service could use some fine tuning but...This place is tucked in a neighborhood so it's hard to find but worth the search for sure, I understand they've had some issues lately but I was impressed. The lack of good true Mexican food is hard to find here for some reason and this place gets it as close as I've had in "gringo land". I will continue to come here not only for the salsas but also for the great tasting food.

    Just outstanding Mexican food. I've been there three times in the past two weeks and each visit has been exceptional. There are a lot of other Mexican restaurants in the area, but I haven't tried them because I love this one so much. Everything tastes fresh, the menu has a lot of options and the salsa is superb. I just can't get enough of this place!

    There's only 2 outstanding mexican restaurant in the area and this is definitely one of them. The valley has plenty of other 'good' choices but sometimes your soul needs the best of the best. Even my Hispanic in-laws only eat here (or the other great place). My fav choice is anything with red chili. My husband get the rellenos every visit.

    Re opened recently and one word describes it - horrible. I hope they get their act together soon, and fix their problems. Would love to hear from anyone else about this place. This use to be one of my favorite places to hit up in Safford, but now unless I hear otherwise, will probably not go back to. its a shame!!!

    Ate here with friends recently, and it was honestly one of the worst dining experiences I've had in my life. After waiting close to thirty minutes for our order to be brought to us, the waitress informed us that they were out of red chili and that anyone who had ordered a red chili dish would have to order something else. The time between being seated and actually receiving our food was just at an hour, and the food wasn't even close to being worth the wait.

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.
