Backyard Taco started out in the actual backyard of owners Ruben and Marisela before the line grew to a mile long and they moved into a brick-and-mortar location. Taking the same love in the home-cooking style of making tacos, customers can taste the difference with the fresh ingredients and unique seasoning. Tacos come in either steak ($2.90), chicken ($2.65), birria (shredded beef) ($2.90) or al pastor ($2.65).
Valle Luna, which means Moon Valley, is an old-fashioned, family-owned and -operated business that proudly serves a variety of Sonoran-style dishes. Try the most popular dish, fundido, made with a choice of shredded chicken or beef ($15.50), or grilled pollo, pork or steak ($15.95) rolled in a flour tortilla with the homemade jalapeno cream cheese, then deep fried and topped with melted cheddar cheese.
