Hot Diggety Dawg!

If the New Urban Downtown Mesa is all about PROMOTING - your MesaZona blogger is admittedly guilty of that - there are some local long-established downtown businesses Off-Main Street, just a block or two's walking distance south that readers will be happy to know about for authentic Mexican food.
Like this one on the NW corner of Macdonald Street & Broadway: Micky's Hot Dogs. It's been here for 17 years.
Here's what you see when you walk right onto Broadway.

. . .  and here's the menu above the small open kitchen when you go indoors
Mexican Food Sonora Style
[and half a block east on Broadway on the south side is the most successful restaurant in all of downtown Mesa: Mariscos de Sinaloa, but more about that in a later post].

All the tortillas, big and small with your choice of wheat or corn tortillas, are hand-made Hecho a Mano as shown here by Miguel when that was brought to my attention by the manager during a visit to Micky's yesterday just after 11:00 a.m. when it opens and stays open most days, except Tuesday, until 11:00 p.m.
It's one of downtown's few food establishments that does stay open "late". For 17 years they know how to keep people happy - at the same time attracting new customers.

Indoor tables were filled and a family of six were eating on the outdoor patio when yours truly arrived with a friend just after 11. . .  Good crowd when the doors just opened!
It's always an encouraging sign to see lots of people liking the food at a neighborhood place.
What's to Like?
Que Hay de Gusto?
Everything!
Todo!




Here's what's on the menu Disfrutale! Enjoy it!
Tacos 4 choices: Carne Asada, Pastor, Cabeza + Birria

Salchi Papas - come and find out

Drinks/Refrescos: Mexican sodas, canned sodas, Horchata + Aguas Frescos

Now about that mouth-filling Sonora Hot Dog
Here's an image of one quickly prepared yesterday when the manager had time to present it on a table during a few minutes available between customers.
