Sometimes you find delight in the simplest dishes. This place excels in those dishes that others 1mess up trying to do more. Want some of the best beans and rice around, come here. Want a mojito that not only satisfies you but makes you want 5 more, come here.
Their fajitas were great, the birrias tacos delicious and enchiladas sauces the perfect compliment. This place reminds me of one of those spots where you have a friend that you know is really good at cooking and you tell them they should open a restaurant and they follow your advice to make a spot that everyone wants to go too. Prices were super reasonable, portions were great and customer service super friendly. A little tight on parking and space inside is limited. Overall a great spot to attend over and over again if want a nice casual meal in the local Tucson area.
Another Hidden Tucson Gem of a Restaurant!
Nana Style Mexican Comfort Food that reminds me of growing up in South Phoenix!
Enjoyed every part of our meal! The Horchata was great! Hot and Mild Salsa served with the chips.
Looks to be a Family Business with exceptional service!
I love that in a Restaurant!
Drink cups refilled regularly and the same for the Salsa bowls, they leave a bottle of each, Hot and Mild Salsa, so you can...
"Refill At Will!"
As Arnold says...
I'LL BE BACK!
Great local restaurant..friendly employees.. we will be back again! That's for sure!
I can't love this place any more. Excellent service. We come for breakfast every Sunday. Chorizo is insane. Pancakes are so perfect. Excellent chile rellenos. The corn tamales and beef taco are my favorite combo. The menu is huge we have so much more to explore. Love you El Sur 🥰
First time here, I drove all the way down to Tucson from Phoenix to try this spot. Food came out super fast and hot. Everyone was super friendly, even the other customers, probably because they just ate amazing authentic Mexican food. This spot is a must try and worth the drive!
Delicious food,nice cozy atmosphere and the staff is incredibly attentive and polite i will definitely be coming back to try other dishes.
This place has an amazing atmosphere and the staff were remarkable in serving us. There are wonderful food options and the food tasted great. It also came out incredibly quickly. All the servers work very well together and no table got left unserved while we were there. They were incredible at helping everyone at a constant flow. Would highly recommend that not only for the atmosphere and the service but also for the incredible food
Great place with very good food & prices. Very attentive staff. We will be back. Patio is now open…I had Huevos Rancheros Wife had Chiliquiles. Returned with friends. Had great service and good food.
Great food, great salsa. Service was perfect as well. Carne Asada!
The food at El Sur is consistently delicious. Our server, and other staff, was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was a bit noisy due to the lunch crowd and lots of bare hard surfaces (floor, walls, and ceiling). The food prices are reasonable. Though I live 20 miles away from the restaurant, it's worth the drive. See you again soon!
