“ i been coming here for 8 years and this is the ONE. i’ve driven across town and even moved away and came back and had to stop here. food is ridiculous, seating is plenty, always find parking, facility is clean, super fresh ingredients, and you can always find a family member behind the counter. i always get the breakfast burrito and it slaps every time. the potatoes they put in there are always perfect. the tacos are crazy as well and they have bomb desserts. not to mention they’re always so fast. i’m in and out in 20 minutes and their drive thru is always quick as well. can’t say enough. will forever be a Tucson staple for me. ”
“ Great breakfast burritos!! We thought they were a bit pricey but they’re genuinely about 10-12 inches long and about 3-4 inches wide. No joke, and they’re delicious not just big. It’s like breakfast and lunch in one burrito. Staff was incredibly friendly to our family, children included. Try the green salsa with avocado, by the end I just wanted to drink it lol ”
“ I ordered 6 rolled tacos. I recommend it!! I recommend the tacos!! Service is quick!! Great for lunch, drive thru or urbereats/grubhub ”
“ The food was excellent, the service was excellent! This was my 1st time here and I was pleasantly surprised at the warm greeting I received when placing my order and then when I paid/picked up my order. The employee was very professional but kind and had very good manners, which you don't find much anymore. I will be returning here again ”
“ My family and I are native Tucsonans of Hispanic descent. So we know authentic Mexican food. This NICO'S is the only one in Tucson that I will eat at. I love their chicken taco's (not rolled) with lettuce and cheese, chicken chimichangas (not enchilada style) DELICIOUS and my other family members - rolled chicken tacos, chimichangas, burritos and super nachos. I truly enjoy the food at THIS LOCATION! I live by the Tucson Mall, however, my family and I are all over town. So trust me we have tried them all. This location on Broadway by Park Place Mall is my FAVORITE place to eat, drive thru or delivery. The food is always fresh, hot (temperature) and delicious. In this day and age, the price is perfect and very good portions! What I also really appreciate is their customer service. You know it's not just a paycheck, they are not just putting in their time. They enjoy their jobs, they take pride in the service they provide and above all, they strive for customer satisfaction. We are all human, so it does happen, mistakes that is (so far only once, Ikr).They do not take any constructive criticism personally, they have no problem correcting any mistakes and that is rare indeed, with any business interactions in this day and age. Right? Delicious food, great portions, reasonable pricing and excellent customer service . Check it out..... P. S. They have 2 types of chicken for certain menu items. Shredded chicken with red chili and grilled, juicy, shredded chicken. I prefer the latter since I am a wimp when it comes to hot/spicy food. Bon appetit ”
