El Horseshoe Restaurant

The food here is great. I don't see many reviews for this place on yelp but on google I do. I will say I have been going to this place for a while now. They only accept cash or Zelle and it's really great homemade Mexican food. Perfect place to come for chilaquiles and pozole. This most recent time I just got caldo de res. And it really had a lot of flavor reminded me of what I grew up with. Service was great the lady that serves us during the week was so sweet and very welcoming. Usually everyone that comes here is a regular so it's a great little mom and pop shop. Very small inside I recommend coming during the week when it's not as busy.

Good hole-in-the-wall with authentic home cooking. Had the Pork with Red and Green Chile sauce. If you're driving by Phoenix this is a perfect lunch spot.

I fear you may catch COVID from here. As of this writing, 1 in 11 Arizonans have COVID. The seating here is packed together, which is a really good way to spread COVID unfortunately. I think the owners should do the morally right thing and close the restaurant to indoor seating. Can y'all clear out some of the parking lot for outdoor seating? If not, takeout only is financially tough, but will prevent your customers from getting sick and not being able to eat at your restaurant.

Had lunch at El Horseshoe again today. I had to do the Steak & Eggs again. Absolutely the best flavors from south of the border. I still can't believe how good the green sauce is. It has just the right amount of heat. It doesn't need a lot of heat the robust flavor Stands on its own. The white corn tortillas are another treat in them selfs. Light and fluffy with a smooth texture. Slightly moist when you tear them apart a wonderful wisp of steam lets you know that you got home made goodness in your hand. Thank You again El Horseshoe for treating my taste buds to homemade greatnesses.

Authentic machaca and homemade chorizo. I wish they did papas with the meal because that is the way I have eaten this breakfast plate for 30+ years. From Fresno to San Diego and now Buckeye/ Verrado Arizona. This is a hole in the wall. It is in an industrial part of town and very easy to get to. Restaurant was almost full and we were the only gringos in there. Very nice family has run this for about 20 years according to Angel. And I took a picture of his grandmother back in the kitchen. I think she thought I was loco. Their homemade green salsa is absolutely off the hook. The red salsa is very good but you really get the feel of the Sonoran style in the green salsa. Guys coming in during lunch looked like very hard working people. We like going to places like this.Oops almost forgot the homemade corn tortillas. YUMMY.

Stopped by for breakfast one day with my son, craving menudo this place did not disappoint! I also had Chile Colorado which was spot on. My son loved the horchata and oh the tortillas were amazing!

Finally. A Phoenix Mexican restaurant that knows that chilaquiles are more than chips with a couple of ladles of sauce poured over them.Chilaquiles are not fancy or difficult food, which makes the lackadaisical approach taken by a lot of Phoenix restaurants somewhat baffling. El Horseshoe does them up right by taking a couple of minutes to simmer the chips in the sauce, letting them absorb some of the chile goodness, before putting them on the plate. Here, the approach to this very simple dish, is well, simple. Once plated, the sauced chips are sprinkled with a goodly amount of queso anejo, and that's it. No crema (though, it might be available upon request) and no garnish. I ordered mine with a fried egg (for an extra charge), which came served on the side. The delicious, hearty, and sneaky hot green sauce will make itself known to your mouth's tender bits when you're about halfway through the dish.

I think this place had ok food. The. Service was horrible the little boy that was not even old enough to work was rude is hell. Then it look like the grandma buddy and afterwords because the Menudo was not very good. I would not return

Delicious, friendly and a good amount of food! I highly recommend. I was able to practice my limited Spanish as well!

I love this place for breakfast! It's not super fast service but the food is worth the wait
