Anaya’s Fresh Mexican Restaurant Glendale AZ – Neighborhood Type Mexican Restaurant

Anaya’s Fresh Mexican Restaurant (according to www.AnayasRestaurant.online) has three locations in Arizona. One in Casa Grande, one in Tempe, and the one I went to in Glendale. This is a NEIGHBORHOOD type restaurant. You stop in if you happen to be in the neighborhood. This restaurant offers breakfast, lunch, bar dinks and most of your Mexican Favorites. They offer appetizers like ceviche, quesadillas, and queso dip. They also offer burritos, soups, fajitas, chimichangas, enchiladas, combo plates, a variety of beef, chicken, and shrimp plates, and MORE!

It’s one of the most festive looking restaurants to walk into. (on the other side is a bar not photoed)

Bright colors everywhere. Lots of hand painting all over and all over the tables and chairs.

We start off with margaritas. They come in small and grande size. You probably want a grande if you order a drink. I saw the small and it is only one sip. (people in photo ordered the grande)

No matter what you order they bring you chips and salsa.

Tonight the salsa ran so hot I couldn’t eat it (and I like hot but this was TOO hot).

I tried the chicken mole platter.

This is an extra large platter. For some people this could be two meals. This is a peanut-chocolate mole with expertly tender chicken breast, a little bit of vegetable garnish, Mexican style rice, refried beans and choice of tortilla. It’s not bad but not the most complex mole. But the chicken is really expertly tender. The rest gets an a-ok.

The chili Colorado (beef cubes in slightly spicy red sauce) is also made with expertly tender beef.

It’s also a very large platter. It has more of a chili taste that you enjoy when you go to Mexican Restaurants.

Worth a try if you are in the neighborhood.

CHZBURGR Glendale AZ Restaurant – Casual Burger Restaurant – Worth a Fork! ****UPDATE NOW CLOSED FOR BUSINESS

******UPDATE NOW CLOSED FOR BUSINESS ***CHZBURGR is a casual burger restaurant located in north Glendale Arizona. You order and pay at the counter, grab a pager, your drink and seat yourself.

You can plug in or charge while you’re waiting at a table.

In reasonable time our orders are ready.

You will hear about the CHZBURGR in a minute don’t worry…..But first you will hear about the Breaded Fried Chicken Thigh Combo Platter I had. ($9.00 subject to change)

I received a crispy breaded thin chicken thigh with mayo, pickles, honey mustard, leaf lettuce on a soft nicely toasted eggy bun. For my combo I picked an iced tea and sweet potatoes gaufrette. I also tried extras of Calabrian Chilies and Ghost pepper aioli.

Here’s a closer look.

WOW! The chicken is FORKING INCREDIBLY crispy and juicy…..very tasty…very VERY crispy….Very VERY JUICY and is very VERY good. I like all the flavors going on here. I added a few of the Calabrian Chilies and I enjoy the pops of heat….It’s not too hot it’s delicious……… It’s a FORKING FABULOUS COMBO for only $9.00! price is (subject to change)

The sweet potato waffle fries that they call sweet potato gaufrette are outstanding! They are CRISP not soggy! They also are seasoned nicely with a sweet and salty thing going on….I embellished them with a little ghost pepper aioli. Contrary to how scary spicy it sounds it’s do-able for many people and also is delicious. It’s less spicy than the jalapeño mustard.

My husband had the Triple CHZBURGR Combo ($10.00 subject to change).

Here’s another look.

I was told that the burgers are made from grass fed beef. This platter contained a burger made with three thin patties with long thin onions and each patty was topped with American cheese. The burger also contained leaf lettuce, RIPE tomato slices, pickles on a nicely toasted soft eggy bun. (the sandwich also was suppose to contain CHZBURGR sauce that my husband requested to leave off) He FORKING enjoyed this burger……he said for the kind of burger it is….that it might be one of the best. I tasted a couple fries and the jalapeño mustard sauce. The fries are well seasoned and seem free of oil. They have a nice crisp exterior and fluffy moist filling. The jalapeño mustard is spicier than the ghost pepper aioli. If you like yellow mustard and jalapeños you might consider giving it a try.

Here is the menu from CHZBURGR

Burgers, Cheese Burgers, Fried Chicken Sandwich, Hot Dog, Vegetarian Beyond Burger, Salads, Children’s Menu, Shakes and Sides.

What we tried I have to say CHZBURGR in Glendale AZ is Worth a Fork!

******UPDATE NOW CLOSED FOR BUSINESS******* 🙁
