" Wow! Just wow! The carne asada burrito was the highlight of my meal. Massive in size and bursting with flavor. The salsa provides just the right tang! I found the atmosphere charming, and it allowed for a comfortable dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning for another delicious feast! " (*Curated Review*)

" We love Susie’s! It’s the best place in town for homemade Mexican food. The guacamole is fresh and packed with flavor. The staff is always friendly and attentive without being overbearing. I’m always curious about their seasonal specials, as they often have incredible dishes to try. Can’t wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The only word to describe my visit would be ‘disappointing’. I was excited to try the pozole based on rave reviews; however, it lacked depth and flavor. The atmosphere is lively, but the food needs considerable improvement. Additionally, the service was a bit haphazard as we waited much longer than expected for our table. I might give it another try in the future, but it was underwhelming this time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pretty solid experience at Susie's. The chips and salsa were nice and fresh, but the highlight was the carne asada. It was cooked just right. My only regret is that I didn't save room for dessert. The outfit seems well-managed, and the staff were very accommodating. I think it’s worth checking out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely delicious! From the homemade chips and salsa to the tender carnitas, this place has earned a new regular in me! The atmosphere is cozy with friendly staff to match. It makes for a perfect lunch spot whether you’re with friends or just grabbing takeout. Be sure to try the tres leches cake - it was phenomenal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been coming to Susie’s for years, and it continues to be a gem in Tempe! The flavors remind me of home cooking, and every dish feels authentic. The carne asada tacos are my go-to, tender and well-seasoned. Service can be a little slow during peak hours but worth the wait. The casual ambiance is perfect for family dinners. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been going to Susie's for several years, and their quality remains high. I love their green chili, and the portions are generous. The atmosphere is cozy, making it a great choice for family meals. I always feel welcomed here, and it's a nice alternative to the more commercial Mexican spots around town. " (*Curated Review*)
