Our Story

On July 3rd 1985 Eva Cornejo and family opened their first restaurant just over 8 miles from there 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.

Eva has always enjoyed cooking for her family. Cooking her very own original recipes from scratch, roasting chiles and preparing homemade tortillas daily is the secret. Eva has been cooking for over 24 years for anyone who has stopped in. Today her son Fernando has helped her expand on her dream to have her second location. Fernando grew up in the family restaurant. His experience and eye for architecture is what has brought the Norte location to where it is today. The courtyard reminding the family of buildings they would admire in Mexico along with high ceilings and authentic detailed architecture and décor. 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”

Familia Cornejo
