whats the menu?

Fito's used to be Nico's. Almost the same selection of food.

We had to move back east. We miss you’re carne asada burro sooo much no one’s here even comes close . Could you tell me what seasonings you use please. I would like to try and make my own. Hope all is well and business is good for you. God Bless

Call them and ask. No one can make them like they do.

I went into this place expecting great food. Most the time, street taco style food is the BEST. However, when I bit into the enchiladas I instantly reached for my fanta. The SHEER amount if salt in this food made me instantly want to stop eating it. I could already feel the sodium pumping through my veins. Not to mention, there was a pool of red sauce so high that at first, I thought they forgot the enchiladas. I dug my soppy mess of a usually mexican sweetheart and continued to eat. Maybe, just maybe, I was trippin. Nah, even worse than the first bite. Avoid this place. Or, at least the enchiladas.

The beans and rice and flour tortillas are good. My beef taco was gross. The meat was dry and flavorless and the corn tortilla shell was so hard it could break a tooth. The WORST horchata I've ever had. The customer service is nonexistent. The woman at the counter had her back turned to us and was on her cell phone. The cook had to tell her to turn around and take our order. It was a huge inconvenience to her to have to put her phone down and take an order. Also the prices are insane. Do not recommend.

Stopped by them on our way out of Tucson AZ to get our last taste of real tacos. Too much lettuce but a good taste to say goodbye with.

The food was excellent, the service was also excellent. And they have a lot of different things on the menu...good authentic stuff. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it's a bit run down inside. It is clean though, and the portions are pretty big. We left satisfied and with a fair amount of take-out. I definitely recommend this place.

My burrito is always amazing. Ive been going to this location for 5 years. Only twice the tortilla was overcooked and too crispy. No biggie! Otherwise, i enjoy this place a lot. Only valid complaint is when they raised prices. A bean n cheese burrito should never cost $5.46. It was just under $5 before the price change when all of the other similar places only charge $3.50. It's just a Bean and Cheese Burrito. The atmosphere inside isnt bad. Its clean with plenty of seating. The employees always recognize me and always give me a warm Welcome and remember what I want. Down to the amount of salsa and color. Pretty darn good. The Super Nachos and Rolled Tacos are also very good. I love this place. Too bad they dont stay open later. 12AM would be ideal since all of their competitors stay open later.

I came here on Tuesday ordered all of my food and I got home and my super fries were missing so I ended up calling them and the lady on the phone apologized and said she forgot to give them to me so they wrote down our name under Lyla Martin and told us to just give them our name when we decided to come back for them because she was going to write it down. Today I came back for them and the man said he didn’t know what we were taking about and wasn’t nice at all or being helpful acting like we were lying. So we ended up paying ten dollars for food we never received even though the lady I talked to said I would be able to get them since it was their fault for forgetting them.

Drove from Phoenix to see Colossal Caves. On the way in, we saw Fitos Taco Shop, a little unassuming restaurant with a LONG drive through line. We said to each other on our way out, "We have to try this." So glad we stopped! Shredded beef tacos - AMAZING, ground beef taco and green chile tacos GREAT!

This is my go to place! I'm there 2-3 times per week. Hands down the best Mexican food in Vail/ Southern Tucson area. I'm a big guy and have a difficult time putting down their $6 steak burrito that comes with guacamole already. Incredible good, great prices, awesome staff! Also recommend the nachos, horchata and Chile rellenos. They have menudo and pozole on the weekends too

If you're in the neck of the woods, don't miss the chance to grab some tacos or a breakfast burrito from Fito's. Oh, and get the biggest, most delicious horchata in town to wash it down.

We have been looking for a quick place to drop in for a quick taco or burrito (other than Taco Bell). This place has good sized serving, quick service, friendly staff and average food. Their prices are a little pricey for a fast food restaurant. It is better than TB, so we will be back.

One of favorite places to eat! The staff here treats you like there own family and never anything less from any of my experiences. I've been coming her for quite a while and I'm always satisfied and they for sure know what they are doing in the kitchen. I'd say they have the best manudo in town, well until I find any better but until there menudo had great taste, the right amount of meat and homany and just enough kick to let you know there's spice in it.

Frequented this location. I would go there every day before work, they'd acknowledge that they had seen me recently, but never make me feel like a fat kid. Always appreciate a familiarity in the vail area. Plus they're open way later than these whities were. 10/10 would recommend.

You have to try their carne asada fries. Absolutely delicious! My picky kiddos even join in and had some. Also their tortas are everything you need in life. The meat is tender and flavorful. If you like heat try their habanero sauce, be sure to shake the bottle first.
