Filiberto's - Scottsdale

A friend told me Filiberto's was like THE place to go to and I was hungry so I decided to try it. It wasn't bad, but I feel like she overhyped it a bit. The Bean burrito was good but it was messy and it had exploded in the wrapper so like a good portion of the bean were like all over the wrapper. The carne asada fries I had mixed feelings about. The actual fries didn't taste fresh at all, the tasted like they were cold fries that had been microwaved. Everything else on it was delicious though. And also you can't mess up Hi-C.

The carne asada on my fries was incredibly poor quality. Very crunchy, hard, and overly salty. It seems as if part of my fries had old carne asada on them, and a small portion of the fries had fresh carne asada on them.

The food had a strong seafood flavor, which I personally did not enjoy—not because I have an allergy or dislike seafood, but simply because it was unappetizing. The super nachos did not contain any seafood at all, yet they were cold. I realize that delivery food may not be piping hot, but the temperature was definitely below average.

I ordered cheese enchiladas but they were missing cheese inside and only had it on top. The shredded beef taco had a mix of beef and other unidentified meat, along with cheese and a large amount of shredded lettuce. Despite being hungry, I found the meal to be lacking in flavor. Overall, I was very disappointed with the experience.

The carnitas at this restaurant are excellent. They also have the best chips and salsa in the valley.
