On July 3rd, 1985 Eva Cornejo and her family opened their first restaurant just over 8 miles from their Eva’s Norte location in Casa Grande. The opportunity to open her original store came when they found a building that needed to be moved. That move cost $7,000 and the building traveled a little over 3 miles from Toltec Rd to where it sits today at I-10 and Sunland Gin Rd. (Building was torn down in 2021)
Eva has always enjoyed cooking for her family. The secret is cooking her own recipes from scratch, roasting chilis, and preparing homemade tortillas daily. Eva has been cooking for over 40 years for anyone who has stopped in. Present Day: After a second location in Casa Grande was opened in 2008, which was designed to be very reminiscent of the Tata Santos Ranch in Sonora where the Cornejo family worked, lived, and ate together. The design is that of the hacienda in Mexico, designed entirely from Eva’s son Fernando. Whom took over the family restaurant after Mrs. Eva’s health declined and closed in 2015. Fernando determined to reopen and open our present location in late 2016. He passed away in October 2021, the family determined to keep Eva’s dream alive is still open today. The Cornejo’s truly wish for you to experience what they have come to love and that is, to serve you as our guest and make you feel like family.
“Our Guest are Family”
