Meet Miquiztli, a family-owned culinary gem based in Mesa, Arizona, where every dish tells a story of tradition, creativity, and community. Rooted in Mexican culture and guided by a deep love for heritage, Miquiztli blends authentic flavors with fresh, modern touches, bringing a true taste of Mexico to every plate.
At the Scottsdale Book Festival, they’ll be serving fresh fruit cups, chilaquiles, and colorful mocktails — all made with natural ingredients, handcrafted sauces, and signature rim blends. Each creation is prepared with care, blending homemade authenticity with artistic presentation.
The name “Miquiztli” means “death” in Nahuatl, but for this family, it symbolizes rebirth and celebration — honoring where they come from while sharing joy through food and flavor. What began as a husband-and-wife passion project has grown into a culinary expression of love, culture, and connection.
For Miquiztli, food isn’t just about taste, it’s about memory, identity, and togetherness. Every dish is crafted with the heart of a family kitchen and the soul of tradition.
