I fell in love with the place!!! The Restaurant- The architecture, the decor is very quaint... an added bonus, the Holiday Season so it was beautifully decorated for Christmas. The food was awesome. The best tasting Mexican Food I have tasted in the Phoenix area. The food looks really good, tastes really good and the portions are large. Be ready to take food home with you! Our waiter Jared was awesome! Jared is very friendly, he truly cares for his customers. One can tell he enjoys and loves his work very much! He is one of the top waiters/waitresses that we ever had through the years of going out to dine. I will definitely recommend Aunt Chilada's. I think it would be a great place to take out of town guests when they visit the Phoenix, AZ!!
My wife and I have been coming here for some time and we really enjoy the whole experience. We dine at odd times and dont deal with the...rush...crowds. IMHO the flour chips and salsa are the best, white guy, chip and salsa combo in town. I always have the seafood enchiladas which are shrimp and scallops in a queso wrapped in a fresh made tortilla. The one odd thing about all the dishes is the...rice a roni...stuff they serve you with the beans instead of rice. If this isn’t your thing, your waiter will happily substitute Spanish rice for you. On Saturday, they have breakfast and a complimentary chocolate fountain with some fresh fruit and other stuff. The service has always been good, they get the food out quickly.
We've gone there for years in groups ranging from 2 to large groups of 50 on the patio. We've been there all hours of the day and night, too. Although there are waits on busier nights, nothing I wouldn't expect anywhere I'd go on busy nights. I always take home a left overs because their portions are so generous. The food is hot and tasty and never disappoints. The wait staff is helpful and knowledgeable and our refills on chips and drinks come before we're usually done with what we already have. The new patio area is amazing! Can't wait to begin enjoying music on Friday nights.
I've eaten and/or had drinks at Aunt Chilada's numerous times. The food is always delicious, great service, and a wonderfully fun and laid back atmosphere. They do a lot of fun things there, and it's easy to just chill out and have a great time. Good place to bring visitors from out of town too. Although I like the small acoustic musical artists in the lounge, I miss having the full bands play.

The Fire & Ice margaritas had the perfect bite of jalapeno in them. Love the owners and staff. Perfect place anytime of the day.
Great atmosphere! Splendid service! Excellent food! We flew in from South Carolina tired and hungry and had a wonderful meal. Also, we were told some interesting history about the place. Very friendly staff.

The food was wonderful! The salsa and chips were the best I ever had! Miguel was a wonderful waiter. We made reservations and got right in. They had several large groups there and were all doing a great job! People can be so impatient and quick to write a bad review but this place was awesome! Vacationing from Indiana and were very pleased.
Service and food are amazing! Have been coming here for years and the palapa bar, the atmosphere,and the staff make this place my “go to” in central Phoenix!
Enjoyed this great restaurant very much. On a beautiful evening the patio is perfect. Excellent staff!! Big portions.
Wonderful food! We sat outside on the patio by the bocce ball court. Had a few visitors with wings which adds to the ambiance :) Our waiter was a very nice young man. Overall, wonderful experience ��
A great Phoenix staple! The margarita was on point. The salsa all was good but a little different than most. Food was pretty good… my husband cleaned his plate. Being August in the early evening, no one was sitting outside due to high temperatures, but the outdoor space looks amazing. Indoors was great and so special in this historic building. Staff was friendly and helpful. When I lived in Phoenix, I enjoyed going here. It was great to visit again on vacation!
Took a golf cart ride from the Hilton to this little place. When we walked in they asked if we were interested in their happy hour in the bar. Duh….. yes we are!!
Party of 5 seated quickly and greeted by a very friendly waitress/bartender. Ordered a round of margaritas on the rocks. They were excellent and inexpensive.
Chips and salsa were ok until we asked for spicy salsa. The regular salsa has black olives in it and was more like chunky tomato sauce. Then it was fabulous! The super spicy was the best.
I got 1 shredded beef and 1 chicken taco on happy hour. They were enormous. After filling up on spicy queso and guacamole i barely had room for them but I managed to finish them. The spicy queso is delicious and the guacamole was fresh!
Cute patio area and a huge outdoor covered area.
If you are staying at the Hilton, this is a must! Enjoy!
I came here as a plus one with my sister for her employee Christmas dinner. We were seated outside on the patio area surrounded by outdoor heaters and trees lighted up with festive holiday lights. It was a very nice experience. The staff was great with the service and catering.
They also have a stage outside where a live band was playing and I think karaoke or another band playing inside. One negative is the very small bathroom. Other than that this place is great.
Love the ambiance here! I had been to the one in Tempe but this one is definitely much nicer!! They had a bans playing the night we went and it's very romantic in the outdoor dining area with the lights. Food was good, drinks were pricey for the amt in the glass so I only got one but thought it tasted good. The chips and salsa were great 👍- I've definitely had better tortilla soup but it wasn't bad. My husband loved his shrimp pasta fettuccine-style dish. We'd definitely go back!
If you're a fan of Mexican cuisine, you won't be disappointed by this restaurant. From the moment you walk in, you're transported to a colorful and lively atmosphere that perfectly complements the delicious food.
The menu featured a range of classic Mexican dishes, as well as some unique creations that offered a fresh take on traditional favorites. Whether you're in the mood for tacos, enchiladas, or something a little more adventurous, there's something on the menu for everyone to enjoy.
The service was a little slow but I assume it was because of the big group. They did respect our dessert request though.

I absolutely love this place and have been going there for years. The patio is beautifully landscaped with flowering Vines and pots of all shapes and sizes. The food is always good and portion sizes are large. Last time my wife and I split the steak and shrimp fajitas and when paired with their incredible chips and salsa it was just the right size for a healthy lunch. Our server was attentive and this is a great spot to just hang out and enjoy the beautiful weather. I would love to give this place 5 stars as I really do love going here. A few things keep me from it though. Several times the wait between ordering drinks and receiving them has been rather slow. I know it isn't their servers faults because they have always been great, and stay on top of things. I feel there is a delay though when ordering drinks on the patio? The couple we were with commented on it as well. I also disagree with only getting 3 small tortillas when ordering. The amount of meat and sides is great, then there are 3 small tortillas.... And when you ask for more they kindly charge you for them and say nothing of it. It is this way with a few items in their menu. So that is a little upsetting. Other than that this really is a great spot for a family meal and you can even have your pups on the patio. I hope this review was helpful and Make it a great day!!
What a great Mexican restaurant. It is located in a cool historic building that was a general store in the 1800’s. They’ve done a great job with the additions to the building matching the original architecture. The food is amazing. Our group sampled many dishes, including the cheese crisps, burritos, chimichangas and tostadas.
Stopped in for a quick bite at lunch. Nice restaurant and staff seems very fun! I had the chopped Mexican salad and a Tito’s Rita which was perfect!

Food was Delicious!
Very comfortable seating.
Only one tiny thing could be better...If they would lower the volume of the music.
Spent an evening here for a wedding. Great space, no sound issues, well-placed heaters, and amazing bartender. The buffet was great, lots of options and yummy. We had beef tacos and chicken enchiladas and churros. The beef was fantastic!
Everything experienced during our Celebration of Life was top-notch! The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was so delightful. Eric, who organized this Celebration for his mother, was incredibly thoughtful for his mother's favorite thing and wishes. It really was a service of great fulness for the life our friend lived! Such a beautiful tribute and honorable send off for her! A big thank you to everyone who made this a day of joyful reflection!
WOWOW complimentary homemade salsa and 2 types of chips to start. The shrimp tamale was so amazing we plan to go back before we leave town just to get it! Absolutely incredible
The patio area is very nice to eat on a pleasant night/day. The food is wonderful. The chips and salsa were top notch. Unfortunately we went on a busy night and we had our fill of chips and salsa before our orders were taken. Most of us were on our second drink. The margaritas are fantastic. The fajitas were amongst the best I've had and we have been living in AZ a long time. Parking is tricky. Come early. The road is a little winding to get there so GPS is wise, especially at night. All-in-all a great spot. Hopefully will catch a better time when less busy next time. Definitely will be back again.
Great atmosphere, service was good.... The food is beautiful but sadly I found it to be pretty bland. Outdoor patio was very nice ambiance and the location makes you forget what part of Phoenix you're near lol
The whole experience was great, even with a band! There was a lot food and it was tasty!
Love this place because their patio! Have been here a few times now, and the service continues to get better and better! Menu is full of delicious options, and have explored different entrees/apps every visit. Highly recommend their Shrimp Stuffed Pineapple 🍍
