Tortas El Guero

My first time having tortas! I ordered carne asada, and it was delicious. It's super filling, especially with fries.I popped in for a Friday lunch, and they were slow. There is tons of seating, casual, family friendly, and tv's around. The gentlemen working the counter were kind and helpful, offering recommendations. The food was made quickly.I'd definitely stop by again.

The tortas here are amazing, especially the alambre de pollo, cochinita, and the mind-meltingly good al pastor. Even the fries that come with most dishes are better than average crispy (though they're sometimes hit or miss). You can't wrong with anything here. Even the average at TEG is miles above most other places.The ambiance is laid back, clean, and surprisingly styley for a multi-generational family-run place. The only drawbacks are that they're kind of weird about taking cards for payment (they used to hide the card reader under the counter), and I could without the TVs playing Newsmax and OAN all the time. (I prefer my tortas sin fascist propaganda).

-Service was phenomenal! They were kind, helpful, & patient -The restaurant was clean, spacious, & you can sit wherever you like -I had a carne asada torta and it unfortunately, it was really subpar. There were many parts of the meat that weren't edible, they over load it with mayo, & something that makes a torta great is the bread and there was just nothing special about this one. -My friend had the cubano and they seemed to really enjoy theirs!

Service was great mom and pop restaurant literally felt like I was visiting abuelitas house.. older lady took our order you can tell she someone Spanish abuela and abuelito in the kitchen for the chef def gave me home feeling Food was great amazing every bite was flavorful from the carne asada to the Alpastor For the torta cubana man best torta I've had in a long time featured in the az times in 2020 I can see why with a side of fresco de piña def recommend Clean 10/10Food 10/10 Price $$Service 10/10

Local, casual family-run business that I appreciated hanging out at. Sweet lady who speak Spanish to you and manages the place will take your order. I got the asada torta for myself and the asada taco for my baby. The torta was quite satisfying and very juicy! It's probably the ideal food for when you are hungover. It does have quite a bit of grease on it so if that's not your jam, stay away. The taco was simple, with some meat, onions, and cilantro. The only reason I'm not giving four stars is that the torta is almost $20, which is quite a lot for a hole-in-the-wall Mexican street food meal. It certainly does not have enough meat or avocado to justify that. I am all for supporting local businesses with all of my heart, but not at ludicrous prices. Similar story with the taco - You can probably find a more hardy taco for less than $4 in the vicinity.

Our first time here, the carne asada torta was hot off the grill. It was perfect I loved it. Great service

TLDR: Tasty tortas in a fast casual setting. Great option for a quick lunch! Vibe: 4/5. Tortas El Guero is located in a nondescript strip mall with a few other businesses. Parking is plentiful, so you will have no problem getting in and out in a pinch. Inside has a fast casual setup, with a main counter for ordering and several 2 and 4 tops for dining in. Everything was very clean and well organized during our visit which was perfect for our impromptu lunch. The menu is displayed over the register. One small gripe is that I wish the overhead menu had a breakdown as to what is on each sandwich. I had to pull up the menu online to see what each sandwich entailed, as some include more than what their menu name entails. Service: 5/5. The Staff at Tortas El Guero were great! We were immediately greeted when we walked into the restaurant and they were very helpful in explaining the menu. They also brought our food out to our table when it was ready, not a necessity in a fast casual restaurant environment, but certainly a nice touch! Food: 5/5. The tortas and tacos are fantastic! My group of 4 opted to try the torta Cubana, al pastor tacos, carne asada tacos and the torta Pacifico. Everything came out at the same time piping hot and with lovely presentation. My cubana was generously filled with breaded steak, pork pierna, ham and gooey cheese. Each bite was insanely flavorful, with the bread being the perfect vehicle for the fillings due to its soft interior and crusty outside. The tacos were also a hit, as they were overflowing with meat and toppings that the 3 tacos are more than enough for the hungriest of eaters. Overall, TEG is the perfect spot for well executed, budget friendly Mexican eats, especially if you are short on time!

This place is so delicious!! The best tortas in the valley!! We will be coming back soon. Fresh ingredients and amazing taste!!

I would really like to try the tortas, but the hours are inconsistent. I went on a weekday, after work, and arrived shortly before 5:30 and was told my a gentleman that they were closed now even though hours state until 6pm. Attempted to go again today, Sunday at 11:45am, and the business is closed. Yelp and their website both say open Monday-Sunday from 10am-6pm.

Almost $20 for a torta (sandwich) with french fries. The meat was unflavored and the cheese was hard.
