Pretty good stuff. Rita's is one of the better Mexican restaurants in Phoenix-- it's not the best, but it's a long way from bottom-of-the-barrel! They do an excellent green chile burrito, and they're enchilada sauce tastes 100% homemade. They also use a nice bland Oaxacan cheese that doesn't over-power the food, but lends a nice fatty texture to everything. The salsa tends to be a little watery for my preference, but it is darn good salsa (and hot!). If you're headed north on 35th Avenue, you have to do a U-turn to get back to the place, and pulling out into traffic can cause more heartburn than the food.
