Garduno's has amazing decor inside. We've had "hit or miss" dining experiences. Sometimes the food all tastes the same. Try the enchiladas tres colores (3 colors), and the house margarita is pretty good. The...

If you love Hatch Green Chili this is your restaurant. I have been taking people here for years. You have to try the green chili bowl if you like hot.

I have been to Garduno's several times and found the prices to be high for the quality of food. Definitely not the best Mexican in town - and very pricey.

Very nice decor and good food to boot. Buffet is fun, as it's unusual for mexican food restaurants. Fast if you're in hurry too. Menu items are better and don't forget the sopapillas.

If you're on vacation, you're better off stopping to eat at Chevy's than Gardunos'. The food was not fresh off the buffet. The decor was hideous- like a vegas hotel with giant horses and psuedo-latin flair. We...

Being a New Mexican gal, I had a hard time moving to Arizona and eating the "Mexican" food here. I was so happy when Gardunos opened up out here. They have authentic New Mexican food including spicy red and...

After seeing the rating of this restaurant on Citysearch on vacation - we were excited to try it out. The rating couldn't be farther off. The food was bland, standard Mexican - like any mall chain in America....

If you love spicy red and green chili, and have a big appetite, go no further. If you live far from one of their locations, it's well worth the drive. One of the few Mexican restaurants here in AZ that serves...

This was the worst meal I have ever had. We were told the wait would be 25 minutes. After 45 minutes, I asked the hostess how much longer it would be, and she said it would be another 25 minutes. After 45...
