I had Carne Asada Enchiladas, and they were excellent. Very good taste. Service is fast. A very well-made salsa came with the chips. Nice heat. Very busy establishment.

Great spot for a cocktail, beer, or chow (or any combination of the above).
Friendly and efficient service. Nice atmosphere and a nice patio area. Not a sports bar, but enough TVs two watch a game or two. Yup, Mexican food, but their hamburger is great too. Heck, the whole menu (well, everything I've tried) is great.

Excellent Mexican Food Restaurant! From the chips and salsa to the main combination plates, the food was authentic and delicious. The staff was friendly and the service was the best possible service you could receive! I couldn't of asked for a better dining experience. Highly rated restaurant visited by numerous athletes, celebrities, and presidents.

The world may change but Tee Pee remains my favourite Mexican restaurant in Metro Phoenix. The food is delicious consistently, super reasonably priced and the service is excellent every time. I pray Tee Pee remains forever…

I ranked lower on the atmosphere only due to the not as many larger tables. They greet you with chips and salsa and we have not had any complaints on the different dishes. Drinks are cheap and service is great. Food comes out quick. We go there with our grown kids who love to go there, so we will continue to have this as one of our go to restaurants.

This is "old school" Phoenix at it's very best. The food is so authentic you'll speak Sonoran on your way out the door. Their Rellenos are amazeballs, and if you're super cool, get a bowl of red or green Chili (or both -- Christmas Chili!) with a fried egg on top. Don't forget the Cheese Crisp for appetizer!
Enchiladas are also good with an egg. Order it like that and the waiters will know you are a veteran Mexican Food eater!!
Can't say enough nice things about this place. Please don't let it change!

Stopped in for happy hour to try Tee Pee out. Loved the mini burros and carne asada street tacos. Service was great despite being busy. Cozy atmosphere and lots of character. We'll go back when we can. Recommended.

i love tee pee restaurant and bar. The food is good. You're served chips and salsa when you are seated. You can order margaritas by glasses or pitchers..I chose the small pitcher.. perfect for 2. I also ordered the machaca beef plate it comes with rice and beans and tortillas...my friend ordered green chili plate... very good. There is patio seating. Restaurant seating and bar seating. Wheelchair accessible. Kid friendly. And plenty of parking .

Update: Went there 2/4/23, and can confirm that this is still my favorite brunch place! A fun, delicious place to have dinner and brunch on Sundays! I've been coming here for years and it's still my favorite place. Service is great and the atmosphere is perfect. Good patio for sitting outside, and great prices!
These guys are amazing. I come often by myself and they always make an effort to be friendly and attentive so I never feel awkward!

It's hard to complain about a burrito that is filled with nothing but meat, but I do like having some veggies for some lightness. Everything tasted good though, and the service was great. The interior and seating needs some serious work, as it is very dated. I will definitely be back

By the time the better-than-most chips and salsa hit the table, your eyes will have adjusted to the bunker-like lighting. Get the enchiladas, I suggest machaca, order a margarita with your beer, and you're minutes away from beefy, saucy, cheesy bliss!

Great small Mexican restaurant! Food is good, margaritas are great, and the salsa has a nice, flavorful kick to it. Service was A+!
Only reason for 4 stars is because there’s really nothing “special” about this place versus any other Mexican restaurant in the Valley. Note to owner: consider a handful of Tee Pee Specialty dishes. That would take your restaurant to the next level.

REAL food. Busy location, wait a bit, but once you’re in… phenomenal. Despite having tons of tables, the service was great, the food was spectacular, and everything was so much better than anticipated! I particularly loved my homemade tamale!

We really enjoyed the quality of the food. It was what I was looking for. Everything tasted fresh, and our server was very nice and did a great job. The chips, salsa, and guacamole were good, as well as everything we ordered. We got a to go order for my dad, who wasn't with us, and he finished off everything saying how good it was.

Traveling for business and met with a friend who is local to Phoenix. He mentioned this cool little place around the corner where President George W. Bush ate years ago. I was in. When we arrived it had just opened. There were people on the back patio but the dining room was empty. Without asking our hostess sat us at The President's table. We totally touristed out and took lots of pictures! The staff were lovely. We ordered the Presidential Special, two cheese and onion enchiladas with a side of rice and beans, among other things (beef tamale, beef taco, etc). The salsa and rice weren't my favorite. The salsa was a little too hot to enjoy and both left some to be desired when it came to flavor. But, the rest of the food was great. The dining room filled up fast. it was apparent quickly that those who knew the area knew this was the place to be. By the time we left there were people waiting to be seated. It was clean and nicely decorated. Smiling attentive staff. good food. Fun upbeat atmosphere. Just an all around great lunch at the Tee Pee. Worth going if you're in the area!

Soo hot<br/><br/>This was our first time. The food was good but so hot. We ordered fajitas and they cook it all with jalapeños even though it doesn’t say that on the menu.<br/><br/>If you don’t like spicy you have to request it be cooked without.<br/><br/>The portion was good. Service was good.<br/><br/>Not ideal for large groups.<br/><br/>They have booths that seat 4 with a wall in between so if you have more than 4 the party is sort of split up.<br/><br/>We would visit again.

This is the kind of place you must try, simply for the history. It's old and musty , a bit rundown. The food is good, but there is better Mexican elsewhere. It's a true dive, without trying to be! If you like traditional chile rellenos, you probably won't like these, just a heads up.They are fluffy & eggy. Kind of scary. Food..C, Service ..C, Ambience..B, Value..C

Chile rellanos to die for. I judge a Mexican restaurant by the quality of the chile rellanos. Passing through Phoenix on a road trip with friends, my husband tempted us with tales of legendary, soufflé like rellanos he had seen but not tried on a previous visit to the Tee Pee. We were all in for the experience. Wow! These rellanos surpassed the build up. I have never had anything like this and nothing will ever compare. Light, fluffy soufflés with delicious marinated poblano peppers and Spanish sauce on the side to make this a truly memorable treat. Loved the vibe of this busy restaurant and our service was outstanding.

Slightly better than average classic old fashioned Mexican food. However, the vibe is fun. A real dive filled with character. I will come back. Looking forward to an afternoon of $3 happy hour margaritas and pitchers of beer. I bet there is nothing bad on the menu. My beef fajita taco and pork tamale was a solid B. My wife's burrito was even better.

Fun and filling!. Expecting greasy food was thrilled it was the total opposite! Sat in the bar due to speed and was amazed at the quality and quantity of food. 1 enchilada was filling enough. Service was fast and friendly.

An old standby. Been eating here for 15 years or so. In my top 10 for Phoenix, very solid and consistent. There are two rooms: the bar and the dining room. The whole place has a bit of a noisy, blue-collar bar atmosphere, if that sort of thing concerns you, but everyone is having a good time. The salsa is not that hot, but tastes great and there is also a bottle of red chile sauce. The food is hot and great tasting, with plenty of cheese. Every time I eat here, which is only once or twice a year, I wonder why I don't drop in more often. Yes, George W. Bush dropped in for dinner in 2004, and there is a signed letter and newspaper article framed above the table he used. I wonder where they parked the motorcade.

Great!. Used to attend meetings in Scottsdale annually and never failed to eat here AR least once. First time back in several years and it is still my favorite place for Mexican food. Nothing has changed....it is still a neighborhood dive with cold beer, great food and excellent margaritas. Prices very reasonable.

Great Mexican Dive in Arcadia. Had lunch here with a client, and it one of those places that looks and feels like a really good dive, You walk in and can see all the pictures of famous folks that have visited. Fresh salsa and chips arrive at your table just after seating, the menu has a wide variety to choose from depending on your taste, lunch is busy, with a very lively atmosphere. Food is great, and if you like cheese, well you really enjoy it.

It was okay.... The food tasted good but was a little bit expensive for the quality of the food and restaurant. Everything was a little greasy to my taste. The salsa didn't seem very spicy but had a nice heat to it. Service was decent but the waitress was very busy; we didn't see her as often as we'd like. I might go again when I'm in the Phoenix area.

It's not exactly a low priced place.. I live in El Paso and have also lived in Albuquerque, The plates at the Tee Pee are on the high end price wise. Also, the food, while certainly tasty is very, very, heavy. My friend who is Mexican and I both got heartburn. While the cooks are Hispanic the customers are not. While it appeals to people in Phoenix, I doubt it would go over in El Paso or Albuquerque. It's too expensive and too heavy. But to each his own.

Yipp-Pee!!. I absolutely would ask for Tee Pee as my last meal! I love it that much! My most favorite thing on the menu is the presidential special- just rice beans and 2 cheese enchilada's. Its so simple but so good!! The shrimp tacos are really great as well. And you can't beat the prices!! I can't wait to go back tomorrow night!!

Run of the mill Mexican food. Service was friendly, but the food was nothing special. I prefer a fresher and lighter Mexican style. Tee Pee's food was the all too typical high calorie, high fat, greasy, not-so-fresh variety.
