Lunch Box

I've eaten here a few times several years ago, so I decided to give it another try and last week. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. The prices are definitely not in line with the food that you get. And speaking of the food, it was just plain unedible.

Absolutely incredible. I'm attending FREAK CITY in Pheonix and I've come to this place twice. Delicious mexican and american food, real cooking, friendly service and even a little gift shop. This is a REAL DINER. I had the Caldo de Res one day and the Juevos Rancheros (with hash browns) the next. Don't skip it. Al Pastor also delicious!

I highly recommend this brunch restaurant! Great service. Yummy food. Good portions. Sophisticated presentation. This place proves that you should never judge a book by its cover! They spoke English and Spanish.

I had the enchilada montada (w green sauce) with a latte. Very good! It came with refried beans and hash browns. The latte was very smooth and had a hint of mocha. My only suggestion would be whole beans as a side option rather than refried (and perhaps just whole beans). It's a small place with comfortable booths and a homey atmosphere and good service. It has a busy early morning weekday crowd. I will definitely come here again.

Seriously in need of updating. Service, lacking and slow. Bad experience overall especially when Mexican staff talks crap about you thinking your gay when you actually have stage 3 breast cancer thus the short chemo hair regrowth. And they are unaware, yo hablo espanol perfecto!!! Customer service sucks and needs better training. Girl at initially handed me a menu, but then walked away and started waiting on other hispanic customers. Just because I'm white don't diss me. I do understand Spanish and I understand when you're being a b-- to me, and don't think just because someone's white they don't understand what you're saying; I speak perfect Spanish and I understand it completely. Yo entendo espanol completo. Now, about the food... it's disgusting. I ordered a classic cheeseburger. It came on a toasted bun that was stale, small traces of mayonnaise, burnt bacon, and a burnt burger that had a spoiled taste to it like the meat was already going bad before they cooked it. The fries are super greasy over cooked and cold when I got them. By far this is the worst place I've ever eaten. I ate here 14 years ago and I'm pretty sure it's not the same owner or management because the service and the food sucks compared to the high quality it had years ago. It was a 5 Star Burger place and now I wouldn't feed this burnt crap to my dog.

I stopped in randomly one day when I was in the area, and was not disappointed. Great little diner for breakfast, I had a really great meal and enjoyed the retro vibes.

We had just flown in from FL and were headed north, but starving. The nearest spot on my app was The Lunch Box. This inconspicuous place was pretty good! Americana w a mexican flair. I split the pancake combo breakfast w my daughter- plenty of food and good flavor (the salsa kicked my butt). My husband ordered the steak burrito with beans and cheese and it was awesome. Surprisingly, my son topped us all with a killer burger that was delicious and came w fresh hot, crispy fries (seriously good fries). All for $37! Cant beat it. Susy was a delight to boot.

Cute little diner. Loved the atmosphere and the food was great and inexpensive highly recommend.

Great food, wonderful service I recommend itThank you chef Chilo. 5 star 5 diamond keep up the good work.

Honestly this place use to have really good food and service. Now it's gone downhill the staff are rude and the food is horrible. I am not sure what happened but it's sad to see it get so bad. Hopefully new management comes into play soon.
