Located at the Arts District of downtown Scottsdale, Old Town Tortilla Factory captures timeless charm and distinct atmosphere. It is built from a historic 75-year-old adobe home. They have a firewater patio and a world-renowned tequila bar that offers 80 premium tequilas! To date, they also have one of the oldest pecan trees in the city. Not to mention that they are part of The Food Network’s “The Best Of” Margaritas.
They make fresh tortillas in over 25 flavors! It actually tastes different from the ones sold in the market. These were really thin flat breads, soft to the bite with a hint of flavor. Chile, cheese, cilantro, black beans, these are among the tortillas all lined up. We had Shrimp Diablo for our appetizer. Its made with sautéed mushrooms, sun dried tomatoes, onions and garlic in red chile butter. It was served with toasted bolilio bread-a crusty bread shaped into tapered rolls. I preferred having them with my tortillas though.
My sister and I shared The Old Town Tortilla Soft Tacos. Yes the beef was tender, juicy and well cooked. It was good ol' comfort food.Simple and satisfying. A little bit of sour cream would have made it even more delicious
We also had Pollo y margarita. These are rolled chicken stuffed with peppers and cheese in a Tequilla lemon sauce. The concept was good, the sauce was wonderful though I would suggest that for anyone of you thinking of trying Tequilla Factory, get the beef dishes, They had stuffed fillet mignon on the menu that I was really eyeing for but just thought that it was too heavy for me. The chicken was a bit on the dry side.
After dinner we got ourselves our Lime Margaritas and indeed it was the best I’ve ever tasted. It was well worth its price.Served with its shakers on the side, we had lalmost 2 servings per person for an order. Nice comfort food and a great night cap.
