Macayo’s

I like the Macyos
on central, the food is fresh and delicious. Their real gem is Clayda! She is outgoing, pleasant, and very knowledgeable of the menu and specials

Service is pretty good. I’ve been to this location about 10x. Every time I come out to Phoenix I go here because it’s pretty convenient to where I stay with family. I usually get the skinny margaritas, and at $ 10 a pop they aren’t as strong as I’d hope they’d be. Not sure who thought it was a good idea to change the presentation, but I ordered two chicken tacos and they came out on a taco holder? Just put it on a plate. It only came with one tortilla instead of two, and my taco fell apart. I felt skimped. They also, put the beans and veggies in two separate small bowls. Seems like a lot more to clean for them and kind of a hassle for me. Can’t you just put it all on one plate? Not as good as I remembered. Might look for other Mexican restaurants next time I come out because this place has changed… and not for the better.

***Macayo’s seems to be a local Mexican restaurant chain, which makes it more unique than the other big chains located in Chase Field – Panda Express, Fatburger, Friday’s; for ballpark food, Macayo’s prices are reasonable with some dishes starting at $ 3 and full-​size/​shareable items available for less than $ 7***
There are a few Macayo’s concessions stands located throughout Chase Field. They are not as common as the traditional hot dogs and nachos stands so you may have to walk a little bit to find one of them. Macayo’s offers reasonably priced Mexican food concessions. Macayo’s is a chain in Arizona (I saw one of their standalone restaurants in Downtown Phoenix).
The menu includes burritos, quesadillas, tacos, etc. I thought their prices were very reasonable. They were doing a set of 4 mini chimichangas (seemed like a good size for sharing) that only ran $ 6.50. I ordered some tortilla chips with spinach cheese dip and they only cost $ 3. Typically, any nacho-​like item at a sporting event is going to run at least $ 5.
The tortilla chips were good. They were light, crispy and fresh. The spinach and cheese dip was also pretty good. It was reminiscent of a spinach and artichoke dip but with more of a cheese flavor (though this was not the best cheese flavor).
I also had a churro here and it was not good. It was not warm and there was way too much cinnamon on the churro.
There was a pretty long line at this stand, but the line moved fairly quickly (food came out quickly after I put in my order).
Macayo’s may be a chain, but at least it seems local to Arizona. So if you like trying different and maybe even more local concessions when visiting a baseball stadium, the reasonably priced Macayo’s is one to consider if you ever find yourself at Chase Field.
