Cheap Phoenix restaurants are a dime a dozen--unfortunately most of these happen to be of the fast food variety. However, the Phoenix restaurant scene has really come into its own in the past few years. It's now possible for foodies to find great eats in Phoenix for just a few dollars.
Our top pick for a delicious yet economical dinner in the Valley of the Sun is Delux. As the name implies, this burger joint uses only the best ingredients to create savory burgers made from Niman Ranch USDA, 100% Vegetarian-fed beef--a far cry from fast-food restaurants.
For the loose change under your sofa cushions, you can buy a delicious taco or burrito at our number 8 choice, south side institution Carolina's Mexican Food. Everything tastes yummy wrapped in the restaurant's homemade white flour tortillas, made on-site fresh daily.
For a healthy breakfast or lunch, Luci's Healthy Marketplace is a welcome addition to the Phoenix culinary scene. The mid-century charm of this restaurant/store makes a perfect setting for enjoying a wholesome meal that won't clean out your pocketbook.
