I don't understand why this place stays busy. The food is bland, including the salsa... I tried eating here three different times and each time was the same bland food with greasy chips.. There are so many better Mexican restaurants in Phoenix. more

The family has visited Tee Pee for many years, and it's a must visit stop for a wonderful meal whenever we're back in Phoenix. While we don't quite "get" the imposing chili relleno (lots of egg white and not tons of flavor--but stunning) other family members start salivating for it from across the country. The other dishes are GREAT--and well... more

You cannot find cheese crisps in Mexico City, or even chimichangas. Enjoy... more

amazing!

Greatest Mexican food I have ever had. It may look like a hole in the wall but once you get a bite of a chimichanga it wont be 5 seconds before you take another more

One of Phoenix best restaurants. I must admit I try to visit these people twice a month. They offer great food, very reasonable price and big portions. The food comes piping hot and the taste is pure authentic mexican food. This location is very dated, the decor screams 70s there is walnut and bright orange vinyl. Some of the booths... more
