- KkarenNashville •15 reviews5.0Dined on Sep 11, 2024Our server was excellent and very attentive and helpful. Starting with the chips, salsa and guacamole were all wonderful!!Everyone was happy with their meals also. My only complaint, which is minor there was a bit of crunch or uncooked rice in my serving. We were inside in a small back room that got pretty warm. There was no ceiling fan to help cool it down. Upon going to the rest room I found the front of the restaurant very comfortable. Love sitting outside but it was too hot.More infoOld Town Tortilla FactoryPrice: Moderate• Mexican / Southwestern• Old Town Scottsdale•4.3
