    A momma and poppa eatery located in a convenience store. Do not let the location fool you, their menu items are all delicious 😋 always get the burritos, but have tried the quesadillas and gyros. They don’t miss. Does take a little for food to come out, but they make it all fresh, so worth the wait.

    Dora's Kitchen makes the best breakfast burritos in Arizona. No one else even comes close to their quality and preparation. I've tried the steak, chorizo, bacon, and even ham. I dont say this lightly - they were all the best I've ever had. The staff at Doras Kitchen are like family. (Pic below - carne, egg, potatoe - no cheese)

    It's intimidating because it's in a small convenience store but the food is insanely good. Authentic flavors and fresh made daily. It has become a weekly staple for my co workers and I.

    Lots of good, homestyle food for the price. Inside a convenience store so no real atmosphere. Most people do take out.

    Very delicious food. Convenient and fast it’s a good place to pick up lunch. The tacos burritos are delicious. If you work near the area stop by and grab your lunch and cold soda. The staff is friendly and a local family runs the restaurant.

    No matter what, this place will always be iconic for me. My daughter was born in the car on the side of this store. The store owner is always welcoming and kind.

    Dora's kitchen cashier was fast efficient and paid great attention to detail I was out of the store within 3 minutes. The cashier was also great at greeting me as I walked in through the door customer service was excellent there I would recommend that store to anyone in the area.

    This is what I know as a "hole on the wall". It is authentic home cooking. The food is made when the order is placed. If you are looking for exquisite ambience and decor this is not for you but if you want home cooking, very reasonable prices, and a laid-back atmophere you should give this place a try.

    My son was visiting from St. Louis with his mid-west girlfriend and we wanted to get her some real Mexican Food for her first time in Arizona. We took her to Dora's Kitchen and ordered a ton of food so she could try a little of everything. Quesadillas, enchiladas, tacos, 3 different Burritos, rice & beans. Everything was made fresh, hot and delicious! Generous portions with lots of chicken and carne asada, affordable. Our order was very large and Dora handled it all with ease right at the beginning of her noon rush. Service was quick and our food order was ready in less than 15 minutes. We chatted with Dora and her husband who are both friendly and made us feel welcome. We got carry out, the dining area where we were invited to wait was clean with plenty of seating. I also bought fresh giant flour tortillas - highly recommended.

    They had 4 different meat options for the tacos, unfortunately they were out of half of the selection and this was early lunch time. So we were a little let down about that. We ended up with the chicken and beef tacos-they were a bit dry. Had a drive thru but apparently thats for the alcohol not for the food.

    The place is a hole but that is the charm. Great food and a well stocked convenience store. Very thankful to have them in our industrial area. We use them to buy bulk lunch or breakfast orders but you have to give them notice in advance.

    It's a little rough interior, but the service and people are nice. Hamburgers are good too

    Stopped in for an early lunch. Great people, great service and a great story. Flavors were spot on. I can’t recommend Dora’s Kitchen enough. Try it you won’t be sorry.

    Authentic, fresh and super tasty. All made from scratch. Our family of four including kids enjoyed the lunch. Staff are very friendly too.

  • 5/5 Anna H. 2 years ago on Google
    Dora's is always packed when you go eat there. I have tried many things on the menu. I think my favorite is the 3 tacos. It's reasonably priced and you get full. The Carne asada burrito is good too. The gyro was very good too. And the fried egg sandwich was also good.

    We arrived in Phoenix, tired and hungry, and we decided to find a nearby restaurant to have a late lunch. We were glad we chose to stop at Dora's Kitchen! The boys ordered burritos and my daughter and I had their quesadillas. Everything was delicious and very filling, they made everything fresh and hot, it was worth the wait. The owner and his wife were super friendly and served our food with a smile. Definitely a go to place when you are in Phoenix!
