What Bertha Dare likes about La Canasta Mexican Restaurant:
one of our favorite places to eat good Mexican cuisine. the albondigas is excellent. the staff, the family atmosphere are the best! they have renovated this last year, very comfortable, clean and authentic! View all feedback. What Greg Gutierrez doesn't like about La Canasta Mexican Restaurant:
I go here two three times a week and their window service is so bad! The younger Mexican woman who ran the drive thru yesterday 9/22/23 and often just has the worst attitude daily makes me not even wanna go spend my money there ever again they need someone who has a better attitude there taking their orders! Food amazing! service not at all! View all feedback.

I ordered the Carne Asada to go and the plate just tasted like mushEverything was mixed up, so it just didn't sit well with my stomach.

La Canasta Capitolio is a popular spot for Mexican cuisine, with many customers raving about the food, especially the albondigas. The atmosphere is described as family-friendly and authentic, with a recent renovation making the restaurant comfortable and clean. While some reviewers were disappointed about changes, such as the removal of the complimentary chips and salsa bar, overall, the food quality and friendly service seem to be the highlight of this restaurant. The drive-thru service received mixed reviews, but dining in is recommended for a more authentic experience. The outdoor dining option is also a plus for when the weather is nice. Overall, La Canasta Capitolio seems to be a solid choice for those looking for good Mexican food with a friendly atmosphere.

Best real Arizona Mexican food in a drive thru. Green chili is best in Phoenix. Hot sauce is best in Phoenix.
