Salsitas

Tried this Mexican food spot for the first time today. I ordered the carne Assada fries and was very pleased! The meat was perfectly cooked and excellent flavor! Way better than any of the «Berto’s»

I ordered green chili plate and 2 carne asada burritos with guacamole and sour cream to go I get home and have 2 half oz sour creams and 1 guacamole that is already turning brown

Try the Torta Cubana– best I’ve ever had. Carne Asada Tacos too.
The rest is meh.

Okay, so
I am not really sure if this is the same Salsitas I am accustomed to, But it is in Mesa so that is close enough.
Salsitas is unassuming enough, if you were to pass it going along your way minding your own buisness you might not even realize what a gem this tasty little place is. I sure didnt.
One day at lunch break my buddy Jose and I are out on the search for a good burrito, we’d been burned previously by a competing little Taquería, Señor Taco– now La Palapa, but i digress. So wondering where to go for our measly 30 minute break, and running short on time I was getting desperate. Then Jose opines, «oh man they have a salsitas here!»
So I jam on the e-​brake and spin my 96 hyundai accent into a tailspin 180 degrees and jam on the pedal whipping it into the Salsitas parking lot.
We climb out of the egg shaped vehicle and i slide across the hood dukes of hazard style and we trot into the joint.
Straight up authentico feel to the place, not a whitey around and just some really smelly (in a good way) grub sizzling away, there is a sneeze guard but behind it you can see all the various types of meats they offer, from Carnitas to Pastor, I was in hog heaven.
We order two burritos de pastor, I get mine w/​guac, pico, and refriend pintos free of charge.
As we waited we sipped on horchata poured from a huge bucket, and labour over the salsa bar picking and choosing our condiments. The salsa bar is really, probably my favorite part. I always get some sliced raddish, pickled carrot, shredded cabbage, lime, salsa verde, and a few sliced cucumbers to supplement my already hulking burro.
By the time we’re done w/​the salsa bar, our burritos are finished and off we speed back to work.
As I’m typing this my fingers smell of garlic and spiced pork meat, my stomach is full, and my eyelids heavy.
Although the remainder of my day is hard to accomplish after my trips to salsitas I always leave satisfied. For under $ 5 you can grab a monster of a meal, that frankly isnt nearly as greasy or fatty as say Filly B’s or that shit hole taco bell.
I love salsitas and will continue to make my weekly pilgrimage.

I went here against my better judgement. My daughter insisted! Walked in to their «new» location on Country Club just North of Main. They used to be at the corner of Main and Country Club~the old Sub shop building… anyway, we each ordered 3 tacos. that was it. The service was slow. We wandered over to the «bug» infested «salsa bar».there were fruit flies or some other wordly little critters flying all over the place. ENOUGH SAID… NOt going back… thanks
