Papa Locos

Do not let the gas station / liquor store facade fool you. This is the BEST hidden gem for Mexican food in the Tucson area hands down. Was in the area visiting family from Philadelphia. Not only did we eat there several times during our stay, but also planning to grab several Enchi Locos on our way to the airport before we head out of town. Do yourself a favor and be sure to visit Carla and the team if you’re in town. You’ll thank me later!

Today was my first day ordering something. The man at the register was super helpful with helping me decide what to order. I didn't take a photo of my food like I should've, but it doesn't matter. The food was so good! I ordered the Red Chile Enchiladas combo, a fish taco combo, and side of fries. They were all so yummy! I ordered the fries for my daughter because I didn't know if she would try or like Mexican food, but the moment she saw my enchilada, she asked if she could try it. She loved it and ate my food, I got left with some pieces lol. Side note: It's hot in there.

If you're passing by, it's a great place to stop for a bite. It's inside the gas/convenience store so don't expect much fanciness. But the food is legit and a big menu with lots to choose from.

Small gas station food establishment but it was DELICIOUS! My son always comes here because he lives in Tucson and we decided to grab a bite to eat while I was down there. I'd definitely go back! Todo estaba DELICIOSO!! Muchas gracias por su buen servicio y comida, se les agradece mucho!

I love this place. I’m completely addicted to their burgers. Especially something I think called the cowboy burger. It’s basically a barbecue western bacon burger with onion rings. They grill the buns, top and bottom inside and out. I seriously believe this place has the best burgers on the east side of Tucson. The employees are incredibly friendly and actually bring your food to you and ask if you need anything else. I try and tip 10% because really they’re acting as full service weight staff. I haven’t really tried any of their Mexican food yet because I can’t keep away from the burgers. Ambience is pure Nico’s s quality.
