Would highly recommend everything we had: guacamole, the tortilla soup, carne asada fajitas, and the shrimp tacos. Good portion sizes, delicious and perfectly flavored.

- KkarenNashville •15 reviews5.0Dined on 11 Sept 2024Our server was excellent and very attentive and helpful. Starting with the chips, salsa and guacamole were all wonderful!!Everyone was happy with their meals also. My only complaint, which is minor there was a bit of crunch or uncooked rice in my serving. We were inside in a small back room that got pretty warm. There was no ceiling fan to help cool it down. Upon going to the rest room I found the front of the restaurant very comfortable. Love sitting outside but it was too hot.More infoOld Town Tortilla FactoryPrice: Moderate• Mexican / Southwestern• Old Town Scottsdale•4.3
