Looking for your next favorite lunch spot? Arizona is home to an endless supply of delicious restaurants for all the cravings you may have. However, if you happen to be in the Phoenix area, there is at least one restaurant you won’t want to miss.

This is Carolina's Mexican Food. Located in South Phoenix, this restaurant certainly looks like a hole in the wall spot with window bars and slightly seedy neighborhood.

Even the interior is a bit rough around the edges, with zero decorations, bare concrete floors, and basic seating at formica tables.

Despite the lack of aesthetics, this place is popular! Lunch is always the busiest time with crowds lining up to get a styrofoam plate of delicious Mexican food. Expect to wait a little while in line or you can call in your order for a shorter wait.

Once you sit down with your plate of food, get ready for a tasty treat! The machaca chimichangas are among the most popular dishes! The chimi comes topped with fresh guacamole, sour cream, and a side of rice and beans.

The burritos are hot, delicious, and served with housemade tortillas. If you're feeling extra hungry, get the foot-long burro!

Even the super simple quesadillas are a popular menu item for even the pickiest eater. It's simply cheese heated between a folded, homemade tortilla.

If you love those tortillas, you can opt to take home a dozen or so when you order your food.
Actually, you'll be hard-pressed to find a meal that won't satisfy your belly and taste buds. Other menu items include tacos, flautas, enchiladas, menudo, and incredibly moist tamales.
