Tres Banderas Restaurant

Was driving around and found this hidden gem. Our waitress who was a customer giving a helping hand said place have patience. Did not bother us at all and the wait was worth it. There beef tacos were the best I ever had, I know that’s a bold statement but you must give them a try! They serve Mexican, Italian, & American food. Will definitely come back.

Fantastic food, awesome owners, wonderful!

Don’t waste your time here people. The ambiance is Ew. The food is Ew. The building is old and yuck. The staff are not attentive. The menu is too broad and should focus on a few awesome dishes rather than everything under the sun. Overall, a no go.

Great dinner, great prices, great service! Good place to stop and enjoy a meal. Menu has variety and tasty specials.

What a wonderful find our here in the desert. This is a nice casual restaurant serving good food. There is plenty of parking for cars and motorcycles.

We tried this place based on the reviews and were very disappointed. The staff was very friendly but the food was incredibly bland. Chicken was dry, beans were flavorless, as was the rice. The salsa must have been Pace mild. Maybe I caught them on an off day but won’t take my chances.

As a proud AJ resident I’m very disappointed that I must do the unthinkable and reduce my previous rating. I’ve returned two more times to enjoy the soup only to find that it consistently takes and hour to receive a bowl of cold to luke warm soup. The incredibly stale chips don’t even begin to fill the void.
Tonight we sat outside, for the second time, at tables which have obviously not made it onto the cleaning list, again. As dusk approached it was clear that they don’t have lights nor do they plan to use what appear to be misters. It’s apparently just a smoking area for the few existing patrons.
What a missed opportunity to capitalize on a beautiful outdoor area to enjoy Mexican food in the midst of this beautiful desert!
I’ve called numerous times to ask if they have Happy Hour specials to which they always reply, she hasn’t decided yet. We’ve give up and have agreed not to try again, they clearly have no intention of making things better.

Off the beaten path. Excellent food!

Not really impressed with this place. Food isn’t anything to write home about or to rave to out of town visitors about. I would say you are better off going to Los Gringos Locos in AJ if you are trying to eat in this area.

Very disappointed. We have eaten here several times a few years ago. We always enjoyed it back then. But our most recent visit was very poor. It appears the old management has left and started a different restaurant elsewhere. Those running it now have truly ruined the place. Too bad as there aren’t a lot of great Mexican restaurants in Apache Junction.
Food was fairly tasteless (the death knell of Mexican food). The salsa was canned and the chips were bagged. Service was very poor and we were the only people in the place. We will definitely not be returning.

Standard Mexican fare — but quite delicious. Pitcher of frozen margaritas was yummy, too. Fast and friendly service.
