What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Nanys Tacos is celebrated for its authentic Chihuahua Mexican street tacos and flavorful homemade salsas, with many diners raving about the quesabirria. The friendly staff and cozy atmosphere contribute to a positive experience for most visitors. However, one review cited an awful experience with food quality and timing, suggesting inconsistencies.
"Wow! We are from Phoenix, so tacos are measured by greatness. When my daughter said "let's go have tacos" while in Williams, I was not excited. But let me tell you! Simply amazing! Everything on our table was amazing! My son licked his Quesabirria tacos plate clean. And dont be stingy, soemd the $1.50, and get the side of sauce. It is 80% meat, and again, bowl licked clean. And they made the best apple empanadas for desert! So glad we asked."

"Phenomenal, authentic, and locally-owned taqueria serving exquisite Mexican comfort food. The consommé is one of the best I've ever tasted! The restaurant was packed and everyone was served within 10 minutes, amazing. The quesabirria tacos are not to be missed. Nany and her team will take care of you!"
Stacy Kline
"Nany’s Tacos is a must when you come to Williams, AZ. The flavor is authentic. They offer 3 types of salsa with their chips. Mild, Hot and Flamin’ Hot. All three salsa are delicious! If you are looking for great quesabirria…look no further! You will need to try the Horchata. I know this may not be a big deal to some people but if you only want water…the water is filtered. This restaurant will not disappoint! They also offer menudo and pozole on the weekends.
Definitely coming back."
