We particularly love this place because it is an allergy friendly place. Being Dairy free, Gluten free, & Soy free can make it difficult to find "fast food". All allergies are listed next to every item so that you are fully aware of what is in each salad. Besides salads, they have coffee/chai, yogurt parfait, and pastries. This is our "go-to" place if we are in a hurry!

Tortilla Flat is an authentic remnant of an old west town, nestled in the midst of the Tonto National Forest, in the Superstition Mountain Range. Tortilla Flat started out as a stagecoach stop in 1904 and neither fire nor flood has been able to take away this historic stop along the Historic Apache Trail.
