No trip to Arizona would be complete without eating some of the best Mexican food in the United States.  Here are some of the restaurants that are a must-try in the Phoenix area.

Carolina’s Mexican Food

What started off as a small family business selling tamales out of the back of a car has become one of the most well-known authentic Mexican restaurants in Arizona.  Try Carolina’s burros and tamales and pick up a few extra tortillas-they are to die for.  http://www.carolinasmexicanfood.com/index.html
