If you're in search of the best Mexican food in Arizona, it's time to plan a trip to Globe. This historic small town is best known for being a former copper mining camp. However, many people don't know that it also boasts several award-winning Mexican restaurants. There's one on practically every corner! If you love Mexican food, you'll be in heaven here. Check out our picks for some of the best restaurants in Globe AZ:
Founded in 1875, Globe is a historic Gila County mining town with a population of just over 7,500.
Its downtown district is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, featuring many buildings that are at least a century old.
In addition to its rich history, Globe is also known for having some of the best Mexican food in Arizona.
There's a delicious restaurant on practically every corner, with J & R's El Rey Fine Mexican Food being among the most famous. Unfortunately, they closed their doors some years ago... but the legend lives on.
Locals also go wild for Guayo's On the Trail, a family-owned and operated Mexican restaurant that has served the Globe community since 1938.
To say this one's good is a bit of an understatement.
The three-page menu takes a while to sift through, but you'll be glad you did.
It has some real gems, from carne asada (the house specialty) to comforting menudo, albondigas, and everything in between.
Los Robertos (now Los Ronabertos) is the place to go when you want quality Mexican food, fast.
This quick-service joint offers all the usual suspects - enchiladas, tacos, rice, beans, and more - with the added bonus of a drive-thru.
Talk about lucky: Globe gets to call this little place its very own, and it'll probably always be one of our all-time favorite places to eat in Arizona.
But wait! There's more - so much more!
Chalo's Casa Reynoso is another Globe treasure, established by the famous Reynoso family who went on to open several restaurants throughout the Valley.
You can taste the love and expertise poured into the generations-old recipes, and the restaurant will quickly become one of your favorites when the Mexican food craving strikes.
You can't go wrong with anything on the menu; everything is wonderful and you'll find yourself craving a return to Chalo's time and time again. Sure, Globe is a tiny, sleepy little town - but the restaurant scene is FIRE.
