Friends insisted on going to Ajo Al's last night. I begged NO. How is this place still open in this day and age of great culinary restaurants and food trucks in Scottsdale?
They serve cheese - processed cheese. Every plate that comes out of the kitchen comes with a warning - careful the plates are extra hot . . burning hot filled with huge portions of tasteless beans and rice. Next to that - regardless of what you ordered . . is covered inside and out with processed, thick, gooey cheese . . . YUCK!
This was the "Mexican" I had in the '70s in Minnesota. No flavor - terrible, watery salsa (served in a plastic bottle). Same menu items from 1996.
If you have no desire to actually taste the food and want to put on 5 or more pounds in one sitting - this is your place!
