very good food and good people food is always well done people are amazing

Unfortunately today I had a rude server by the name Liliana. When asking to speak to the manager she answered with offense questioning me. There was no manager to speak to.. I can say with confidence that they lost 2 loyal customers until I find out of her not working there anymore. She was not polite at all and never greeted us definitely lost my appetite over her starting an argument with me.Overall this place has very amazing food!

Our new Mexican dine in restaurant. The food is of good quality, the prices are reasonable and parking is convenient although we parked on the street.

Food is horrible and make sure to look at your bill they like to give themselves extra tip.

Breakfast burritos here are great, they made all of them exactly as ordered. The salsa/ hot sauce was excellent. Good flavor and some heat. Not bad on price either.

Food was awesome!

It was kind of a late night grab and go scenario but I wanted to finally give this place a shot. I wanted something that was going to be filling and kinda on the cheap side. For around $10 I tried a smothered burrito that reminded me of another restaurants similar item. It was carne asada and covered in green sauce which had a very pleasant spice. For the most part it tasted good and was a decent size but once I ate it the meat was just a little overcooked granted not on the point of being uneatable just a little chewy. Just for a personal note I should have asked for a side of rice to help soak up some sauce.

I love this place. They even have potato tacos, for people that don't eat meat. Delicious.
