Mi Nidito

We like to try local (non chain) restaurants and this one was rating at the top. We pulled up Thursday night at 7:30 and there was a line around the building, even in the rain. We stuck it out after a 45 minutes estimated wait. So glad we did! First off they kept delivering drinks to the waiting area and it moved much faster than our original estimate. Service was quick yet attentive and timely! Food overall was amazing. I ventured out and tried something new. I had the dried beef burro. The owner Jimmy said they’re are only 3-4 places do this regional specialty in the area. I would say it was great.

We stopped by Mi Nidito on our way to Tubac. It's close to the freeway for an easy on and off. We had been there once before and decided to go back again because it was so good! They have a wide arrange of menu items to choose from and the portions are generous, not to mention delicious. It has become our new "go to place" for Mexican food in Tucson.

You dont need the celebrity photos on the wall or the line put the door to know this place is a step above the rest. The smells alone will let you know your in for a treat. The service is on point, the menu is concise, and this unassuming joint will have you coming back in no time.

One of the best mexican restaurants in Tucson.
15-30 minute waiting worth it.
Very tasty and not extremely spicy food.
Nice waiters, 6 types of margaritas to chose from...
Reasonable prices $$-$$$
