This place is kind of hidden in a complex that looks to be in a school/church area. The menu is very simple. We ordered three chicken tacos, a steak taco, corn elote, chips and salsa and steak fries. The chicken was slightly cold and had a shrimp flavor (when you aren't big on shrimp, it's a bit of a step back). The steak was also cold, but had great flavor, some pieces were fatty, but that's kind of to be expected with this cut of beef. The corn elote was really good, the spicy mayo set it apart. The steak fries had small pieces of potatoes in it, so not fries. BUT they were seasoned well, probably the best part of the meal. Overall it was decent. A few set backs, but I'm chalking it up to it being towards the end of closing time.

I have had their breakfast burritos and iced coffees. They don't disappoint

Not impressed with this location. Been here 2x now and have been let down each time for different reasons. I absolutely love the food at Brushfire and my experiences at the other location on Thunderbird and 75th have been great. Here though, quite the contrary.Today, I stopped in just after 1 pm so what many would still consider lunch. I ordered a burrito and some tacos. Amidst my placing the order, I heard the cook complain he had to “work” and fire up the grill for some shrimp. Then, the person taking my order couldn’t figure out the POS system and proceeded to completely disregard my request for salsa on the side (none in bag). Additionally, this individual put guac and queso on my burrito despite me specifically requesting otherwise and him notating it on the order/receipt.In all, it took about 20 minutes for a very simple lunch order and I was the only customer to come and go during this time. To top it off, they’ve added a 10% surcharge for inflation so I not only had to essentially tip these people for not giving me what I ordered and there was no mention of it anywhere in the store or by the employee, just a note on my receipt. Suffice is to say, I will be sure to go out of my way to visit the other location before returning to this location ever again. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!

I love Brushfire! This location is hidden on the same campus as a church. If you are looking for a delicious breakfast burrito, this is a must try.

To be honest the food always gives me a stomach ache and the prices do not match the quality of food there i wish its was priced better and tasted better

True hidden gem, almost don't want to review because then it'll become busy and I hate lines but.... greatness deserves praise and well this place is bomb diggity! Talk about fresh and generous mouth watering portions! I had the shrimp burrito, fully loaded and it was DELICIOUS and got my friend the Steak burrito, equally drool worthy, salsas were tongue titillating and the empanadas pure perfection. I want to try everything they have on the menu! I noticed they have a super cute drive through location just off the 101 at Thunderbird so I'll hit that place up for convenience. So glad I found them with their tiny sign off 35th in the church. Look them up, youw ont be disappointed at all I promise!

In store lighted menu says Two for Tuesday tacos. Ordered for breakfast and was told by the owner's daughter that it was for lunch only. Really bad business to tell a customer something not advertised after they have placed their order.

The breakfast burritos boxes are adorable and are so good. We usually mix and match when we have small get to togethers.

I treat my customers to the burrito box and Monica the manager is so nice that she learned my name very quickly and my order. She makes it very easy to keep coming back and getting the bf burrito box. No only that this place is everyone's favorite

First time at this location and won’t be back. I’m not sure if it’s because they were 40 minutes to closing but I got super old and hard potatoes in my breakfast taco it actually hurt my tooth. Doesn’t take long to cook potatoes or at least reheat them. They were rock hard. I’ve never had any issues with the location on 83rd
